Electric Beets is one of my favorite vegan spots in the city. Small shop with mostly grab-and-go items and baked goods, but they do have hot soup and can warm up anything you buy if you want. There are so many options, and I love that they're already packaged up, perfectly portable. The staff is also so nice and friendly. I haven't had anything there that I didn't like, but I'm especially partial to their burritos and wraps, like their buffalo chik'n wrap and breakfast burrito. My kid likes their tofu nuggets and chocolate chip cookies a lot. They have a few seats inside and a couple tables outside, but it's so easy to pack everything up in a cooler to take wherever you want to go. Looking forward to trying more! read more

I had a really wonderful experience at Electric Beets. I highly recommend trying it out if you are in the area. From the food to the ownership, you will leave feeling nourished in body and soul. First, I love their wide yet curated menu. From soups, mains, wraps, sweets, and more, EB has something for everyone. Still, the selection definitely feels curated and thoughtful. I also love how open they are about the ingredients both online and on the packaging in-store. By the way, EB is a grab-and-go place (re the packaging) but there is some seating and they will heat things up for you! Second, the actual food is yummy, filling, and doesn't leave you feeling sluggish. I think this is a testament to the quality of what they do. One thing that's important to know about all their food is that it's definitely lacking a bit in the salt department. This, however, is not a major drawback for me because (1) you can always add salt, and they have a large shaker in their storefront for those who eat in, and (2) it feels very much so on brand for them to do this, because it's just more accessible for different conditions and palettes. Anyway, here's a deeper dive into what I ordered over 2 visits within 24 hours : Chickpea Curry Soup ($14 for LG): feels like a healthy meal that a vegan food influencer would make. This is a compliment. Silky, comforting, and yummy. Basil Biscuit ($4): really yummy drop biscuit! Hearty with some richness. Zucchini Brownie ($8): solid brownie, but after reflecting on it, I would not recommend this due to the high price and the fact that it tastes very healthy. I know I'm complimenting that in other dishes, but I feel there's a threshold, especially considering the price. Carrot Ginger Soup ($14 for LG): really lovely. I think I might like it a bit better than the Chickpea Curry Soup. GF Lasagna Slice ($12): hearty and unique! The owner said that this was their richest dish, and I felt totally good after eating the whole thing! I'll say that not all the vegan components quite compare to the original (e.g., the cashew cheese has a nutella-like texture), but I felt it was still solid given all the modifications. I think they could lean harder into tofu here for a closer texture, though! 16 Mills Babka Pound Cake: it's marble pound cake!! It's gonna be good :) Third, the ownership. The owner was working near the front of the counter both times I came, and it was instantly apparent how caring and thoughtful she is about EB. She knew basically all of the customers coming in. She obviously didn't know me, but she was so helpful in walking me through the menu options. For the customers who she knew liked the 16 Mills baked goods, she was proactively open about the fact that they'd be ending their partnership in a few weeks. She wasn't putting 16 Mills down in the slightest, quite the opposite, but she candidly and gently shared how things were changing and why. I remember thinking, "This is what business is supposed to look like." It's just very authentic and thoughtful. That comes through in literally everything they do. Big kudos to her! I don't know when I'll be in Brooklyn next, but I'll do my best to hit up EB again, and I think y'all should too! read more

I think there is a perception (maybe just my own) that vegan food can be quite expensive for what you get, even if it's only decent. However, Electric Beets combines decent prices with really great food. I go again and again for the green goddess wrap which has a bunch of veggies and a killer sauce. It isn't a haphazard assortment either, they all work together. The staff and owner are very nice and if you come in at the right time of day you might get a lil free try of whatever soup they're making! read more

Best for classically vegan dishes like smoothies and entrees that highlight veggies. The customer service is warm and welcoming and attracts similar diners. You'll find other health conscious diners that come into Electric Beets seeking to fuel up on food that isn't made from mystery ingredients. My favorite part is that everything is labeled so you know what you're eating/drinking. Be sure to pick up one of their smoothies, they're amazing! read more

Electric Beets is truly a special, joyous caring space. It is guided by a goodness that comes across in every morsel of food. Everything I've ever had-delicious!...every visit- comfort... warmth...a YES. Even if you think you have no interest in "vegan" food - stop by! Try something new ( isn't that a New Year's resolution you are about to make in a few weeks???)... you might thank me later! read more

Really delicious vegan options for sweets! The food items and soups are delicious but do not sleep on the sweet treats! My favorite are the donuts from Sixteen Mill Bakeshop. They come in different flavors such as vanilla raspberry and chocolate cherry. The frosting is smooth and creamy and the donut cake is dense and moist. They're $9 per donut, but a solid option/special treat if you're looking for vegan sweets. read more

Everything made in-house using minimal oil and no refined sugar at this vegan deli and bakery in Park Slope, Brooklyn. Among its wares, serves a rotating daily soup specials. Caught the Egyptian lentil soup, tasty and soul-warming on a cool fall evening. Paired it with a tempeh-kale salad, and as a treat, a sunflower butter cup cookie. Other things to look out for: burritos, mac and cheese, and their lasagna. Mostly functions as a grab-and-go but does have limited seating inside and outside. Cecily, the founder, was so welcoming and a fount of knowledge. You could hear the love, care, and dedication in her voice. Drop by, support, and say hello. read more

I stopped in to grab a breakfast burrito on my way to work. The store was beautiful, and the person at the counter was incredibly helpful. They were chatting with another customer about options tailored to specific dietary needs. They offered to heat my burrito, but I chose to wait and warm it up once I got to work. It was delicious--a flavorful mix of tofu, sweet potatoes, spinach, and perfectly balanced seasoning! I was also offered a scotch bonnet salsa. At first, I hesitated, thinking it would be too spicy, but I was reassured it was more about flavor than heat. I'm glad I tried it--it was amazing and complemented the burrito beautifully! read more

Decided to stop here for lunch with a friend and was really pleasantly surprised! My friend got the breakfast burrito and I got the sunflower Mac n cheese and both were so delicious! Even though the food was in the refrigerator, the staff offered to warm it up so we could eat it there. Everything was super tasty and fresh. I talked to who I assume was the owner as she noticed I had just finished a race and we bonded over running. Super super friendly and kind staff. Would HIGHLY recommend. read more

Electric Beets - Sunflower Mac n Cheese - Vegan Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

PLANT-BASED BLISS! !! I'm rarely in this area and I was looking for a vegan or vegetarian spot - surprisingly there isn't all that much in this terrific area except for "ELECTRIC BEETS", a small unassuming spot with a variety of healthy and inventive items, where the vibe is so high, it'll make you smile!!! (thanks Yelp for helping me discover it!) Flavors "pop" in everything here!!! Their website has a "Calendar of Soups" so you can know what's offered on the day of your visit! Such a cute idea! There are variety of daily made sandwiches, salads, pastas and more in their abundant refrigerator case - any can be heated up for you - the choices are ABUNDANT! I tried the Buffalo "chicken" Wrap - very filling and hit the spot. Enjoying it while people-watching was terrific! The highlight for me was a type of Spicy Coconut Soup with Vegetables - FULL OF FLAVOR that will make your tastebuds awaken - it makes you feel alive! They also offer baked goods, of course I had to buy two! One was a sesame cookie, who doesn't love the idea of a healthy cookie! The other was a type of scone that was quite filling, as scones always are! The owner politely introduced herself and appreciated my interest in ALL of this highly creative take on healthy plant-based eats! Flavorful healthy eating is her passion and that is easy to see as soon as you walk in there are a number of cookbooks that she and the team seem to use - this is a team that aims high. She was open to hearing about all of my menu ideas. (I was a food writer in New York for many years) inventive flavor/texture pairings are where it's at for me! Her enthusiasm for what she does, her devotion to everyone's better health and her sense of joy and purpose is felt and she IS the heartbeat of this endeavor that she clearly LVES!!! She's brought her Midwestern charm to New York and this is not an easy spot to succeed in the food business unless you can offer consistency and excellence- her "Electric Beets" does both and is poised for greater success. As the the warmer weather approaches, it will be nice to sit at their orange tables out front in this friendly-vibe neighborhood where you see many families with happy hipster Brooklyn kids - . - what a pleasure! I cannot wait to go back and try more of their highly inventive and FLAVORFUL food - many get things to-go but to eat here is like getting an education in plant-based EXCELLENCE and INVENTIVENESS - expect great things from this beloved spot... Check it out... read more

Had the buffalo wrap, super tasty! Coworker and I went for lunch, and any time I'm overwhelmed with options is a win for me (as I travel all over the country for work, sometimes my options are limited) The soup of the day was fantastic too! Wonderful, friendly staff. Totally a vibe you didn't know you needed in the middle of a work day :) next time I'm back in Brooklyn, I'll be back hopefully I'll remember to look for a sticker I can put on my toolbox read more

Lovely spot. The owner and staff were helpful and friendly. I was going to buy a wrap that wasn't GF and the cashier caught it. There was a nice selection as well. The allergen labels weren't so visible but it was an otherwise good experience to get GF good to go. read more

Came here because I was attracted to all the signs that said gluten free/no seed oils. Just love their attention to detail when it comes to being health forward. I left with the green smoothie which was refreshing after a workout. read more

The owner was so lovely. The food was pretty bland. I'd be happy have bought it from a grocery store or a food delivery service, but as a restaurant experience it was really dry, flavorless bbq jackfruit, and an absolutely flat mac and cheese. read more

Electric Beets has an extensive selection of foods which are all vegan. Most of their prepared foods can be eaten as is or warmed up. They have little to no processing to their foods and rely on using whole foods. On the occasions I've visited the staff have been welcoming and friendly. There's some seating options but it is more of a grab and go style. They have delicious food but I especially love their desserts. The date, almond, cranberry and zucchini brownie is a must! read more

FINALLY GREAT vegan take away food! WOW this place is amazing! The owner Cecily is welcoming, kind, hospitable and the food is endlessly delicious. Incredible EVERYTHING! I can't even pick what my favorites are. But if you're looking for vegan, no refined sugar appetisers, main meals, desserts or snacks THIS IS THE PLACE! read more

Just love this place. I am vegan and must be gluten free as I have celiac. So many great choices and the food is just all delicious. The staff and the owner are super friendly, gracious and very knowledgeable about the food ingredients. Really recommend this place!!! read more

I haven't lived in Park Slope for years, but I was back there yesterday and took a stroll down Seventh Avenue and discovered Electric Beets. I bought spring rolls and japchae to bring home, and I ate both today, and...if I could afford to move back to Park Slope just for this place, I just might! This is some of the most delicious vegan food I can recall having had, and I love that it's conveniently available to go. Something tells me that in the future I will be journeying from the far reaches of Queens to get more of their offerings, unless I can convince them to open an outpost in my current neighborhood! read more

Food is always so good and their staff are so sweet. Soup haven. Hearty salads for only $12-13 which is unheard of in this area! Stocked with healthy grab and gos and fresh made stuff. love this place read more

Great food and service! Delicious and Nutritious I will visit again and again. Great place to get goods all bites and or a meal, the right portions. Support this business Brooklyn! read more

This place is great! One of the best breakfast burritos I've ever had. Loved the sausage and the smoothy as well. Can't wait to go back and try more of their offerings.

My first meal here and it was delicious. The barbecue sauce was spicy with some nice sweet and crispy contrast from the coleslaw. So good that even this omnivore is ready for a return trip. read more

I've been coming here since it opened in Dec and I've loved everything I've tried! I just today had the Buffalo Chik'n Wrap and it's motivated me to finally sing the beet electric. I'm loving this wrap so much. It's delicious --spicy and full of favor. Lots of protein but not from processed or fried fake meats. All of the food here is homemade and most of it seems to be being made when you visit because it smells so good in here. Oh and I've loved the SCONES so much. My favorite was the chocolate, hazelnut, date scone. The breakfast wrap is also excellent. I brought a sheet of their amazing lasagna to a dinner party and everyone LOVED it! When the weather finally warms up, this vegan will be filling his picnic basket up here and walking the two blocks to Prospect Park for the perfect picnic. I cannot wait! read more

Electric Beets - a menu on a brick wall - Vegan Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

We visited this lovely little shop yesterday. We did a take out of a luscious lasagne. There were 4 of us sharing this for dinner. It was more than enough for all of us for dinner. It hit all the right notes. Flavorful, well seasoned , not salty or oily. The woman at the register was lovely and informed and so helpful! From someone who is not a vegan... I think this is a wonderful alternative addition to the neighborhood . Can't wait to go back again! read more

Plant Based Eaters, unite! Great food, good concept, nice people! This is exactly the kind of place we've been looking for in Brooklyn. Clean, fresh, thoughtfully prepared food, ready to take home. We especially loved the Beet Burgers, Mushroom Sausage and the lasagna. The portions are big enough for multiple meals, and can be added to one of your own favorite recipes as a protein boost. Thanks, Electric Beets! read more

Love this place!!! Wish we live close by so can grab their incredibly delicious cooked food and baked goods easily. Everything in the store is refined sugar free which is so appreciated and on top of all so flavored bursting with umami. We've been picking up a few items on the weekend for weekday meals. The japchae (coconut sugar) is so good and finally not a greasy and overly sweet japchae like most Korean places. All the soups and chili we tried were fresh and yummy. The lasagna was amazing too. They also sell Sixteenmill baked goods which are delicious, vegan and refined sugar free. The owners are friendly and passionate about quality food! read more

I really appreciate this place - major but - I went in just now and the two customer service folks insisted that they would not take my $100 bill for a $40 purchase - because they've been having a problem with fakes. I happen to not be a regular park slope person with many extra dollars on my card. I could only pay for lunch for myself and my kid with this cash. I had to get pretty animated to insist back that they call the boss of the establishment to ask to make an exception and go ahead and check that my bill was not a fake. I was asked to "be respectful" but I do not feel I was treated with respect whatsoever in this case. They did call their boss. I run a public facing retail business and there are always exceptions but for me to have to insist and border line raise my voice... to pay for my food? read more

Stunning food and fabulous people. I would give it 6 stars if I could. And it is healthy for you and the planet.

Everything about Electric Beets is amazing. The food is delicious, the owner is so welcoming and kind. It's just an amazing addition to Park Slope. Love the atmosphere and ambiance. read more
