    Baked tofu with Walnut pesto sandwich (with avocado added)
    Ophelia M.

    This place is an absolute gem and was a highlight of my recent trip to the area. I was staying in New Paltz and looking for a spot to grab some lunch and maybe get a little work done. I found Karma Road on Yelp--a vegan cafe? Yes, please. It's a small cafe with a few tables inside as well as a few outside. When I arrived, the outdoor seating was full but there was a few tables available inside that were perfect for my needs (dining and working). It's an order at the counter set up. I knew I wanted a sandwich and was leaning toward an avocado sandwich they had on menu. The worker was excessively kind and welcoming. Upon hearing it was my first time there, they asked if I might like a recommendation. I mentioned I was thinking of getting a sandwich. They shared that they're favorite sandwich was the baked tofu. I asked if I could get it with avocado added, they enthusiastically recommended I do so! I did, and my goodness--that sandwich was outta this world. It was absolutely divine. It came with some cucumbers that were seasoned and seemed to have maybe a squeeze of citrus as well? I truly don't know what they had on them but what a simple yet absolutely astoundingly fresh and fabulous side. Whether you're vegan, vegetarian, or simply like good food--seriously, give this gem a shot. It is well worth the stop. Get to it!

    Super friendly service! They helped me pick out my breakfast burrito which is delicious. They suggested the hibiscus lemonade which I am truly enjoying. A very good vegan meal!!!

    What a gem of a restaurant this is! We finished walking on the River to Ridge Trail and were starving. I had the vegetarian Reuben and it was so delish. The people were so friendly and the atmosphere is eclectic. Def will b back.

    Golden Milk Coffee. That's all I have to say. Oh em gee is it delicious!!!! Gluten free wrap, where do they get such a delicious wrap that actually stays together?! This place is adorable, the staff is friendly, the seating is minimal, but it's a Main Street so there are indoor and outdoor options to sit. Stop in if you're in the area, this place is worth it! And the area is adorable and trendy too, plenty of little shops to hit while in town!

    Kalecado Salad

    Cute little place to grab a healthy bite to eat on the way back from Fleishmanns to NYC.

    Great tiny place for filling vegan meal. We found a little pricey. We ordered hybrid burritos it was delicious. The roasted potato and tofu scramble added a lot of flavor. The another thing we ordered was baked tofu sandwich with avocado. Pesto in the sandwich was amazing. For drinks we ordered freshly squeezed orange juice and mango and ginger smoothie.

    TBTS
    Jay M.

    I have loved this place for years now. Such a wonderful spot with a cozy interior and always friendly staff. The TBTS is probably the best sandwich I've ever had and is consistently amazing. It's worth the detour off the NYS Thruway just to try it- the combo of the tofu scramble, tempeh bacon, and vegan mayo is so insanely good. I haven't even tried their other menu options because I really don't think you can beat this

    Mango stinger with spiraling and hemp protein. And berry banana low with spiraling and hemp protein added. Yumm!!

    Every single thing is great. I feel like I am thanking my body for life and eating here is rewarding me and ensuring I keep caring for it. Love karma road!

    Cucumber salad with dill, slaw, blackened tofu and curried zucchini.
    Sid G.

    If you are looking for something light after a tiring hike, the one that leaves your stomach unsure that it will accept a heavy or light lunch. Look no further; Blackend tofu, curried zucchini, cucumber salad with dill and tempeh bacon are the perfect things I wish to have after a hike. They are perfectly made, not oily but still flavorful; just the right spice to let the flavors come through. The stomach is happy, a light casual ambiance and no dead animals :)

My boyfriend is black and I just wondered if it was a racism thing. I could be wrong but it felt that way since everyone else was white. It happened while I was going to the bathroom at the creepy bus station office next door which you have to go to bc the coffee shop doesn't have one. I got a chocolate croissant which tasted fine but the woman who worked there made me wait a super long time while she and the guy in front of me talked about his dog. There are a lot of coffee shop options in New Paltz so you don't have to go here if you need coffee. I would stay away from this place. I was led astray by a review that said it was good.

    What a delight!…read more Founds this place on Yelp when I was in the New Paltz area and decided to stop by for some coffee, breakfast, and to get a little work done. I arrived to find them right off a bike trail in a small shopping center. If you live or are visiting the area and are biking at all, you could definitely bike right on up from the trail. The space inside is bright and airy. It was a great space for working in and they kindly provide free wifi. I ordered a mocha made with oat milk. For milk alternatives, they have oat and sesame. I was leery having never had sesame milk to get that so opted for oat milk but kinda wished I would have tried it. That said, the mocha was splendid--rich, strong espresso and flavorful chocolate--it was pitch perfect. For my breakfast I opted for their avocado toast which was an absolute dream. Hands down one of the better avocado toasts I've had the pleasure of enjoying. The service was warm and welcoming. Zero complaints about this spot! Get to it!

I didn't catch her name but it's the lady with short hair and bangs!
