10/10. Never misses. Has been my favorite spot of all time for 4 years now, it has a cult following for a reason. Honey pot latte = perfect. Every smoothie and smoothie bowl = perfect. Their seasonal coffees are usually bomb. One complaint: the peanut butter latte needs to be brought back. read more

Early dinner at Millie's really hit the spot! My buddy had just finished an intense certification exam and really wanted to recharge and relax. I had a small PB&J smoothie bowl, Golden Butter Curry Bowl, and a Chai Latte; my buddy had a smoothie bowl, Buffalo Tofu Wrap, and a fresh pressed apple juice that was a lovely light chartreuse color. He then topped off with a Blueberry Poptart and a coffee. Yummers! We were going to eat on the nice covered patio but the thunderstorm moved in and the rain was lashing in so we ate inside comfortably situated watching the light show outside. After eating we shopped for supplies in the attached natural grocery then headed home in the sunshine. read more

This cafe is attached to a health food store. It is not open too late, but it fit my needs well. I ordered a salad based on classic flavors of sundried tomatoes, pesto, and goat cheese, and boy they sure did not skimp on any of those things. The result was robustly flavored and fit my need for an early meal. The location is part of a mixed residential and retail complex that was a bit odd to navigate. They also had a bunch of smoothies and such, and I noted one customer who actually asked for the non-dairy nut milk to be replaced with dairy milk. I found it amusing that we've gotten to a point where someone ordering food has to explain that they're not a vegan. If you are avoiding dairy, however, there's plenty for you here, and I could not expect a small place in a town like this to fill its niche much better. read more

Millie's Living Cafe - Sun-kissed pesto salad - Vegan Near Me - Lynchburg, Virginia

I wanted to like this place so much. First of all, it was in the middle of a residential complex and attached to a health food store so getting to this place was a bit of a struggle. We got the taco salad, jackfruit sliders, poke bowl, spring rolls, and southwest bowl. However, they gave us a different bowl with cheese despite us being vegan and did not tell us that they ran out of bread for the sliders until a massive roll showed up. They messed up 2/5 things that we ordered. For a health food place, I was expecting them to have reusable plates, but everything was single use and they didn't have a compost option. The flavors on the food was okay. We wish they had a little more something for the price and the best thing was the taco salad. The employees were nice, but they didn't give us water or napkins and we had to ask twice. Overall, I want to support them, but can't see myself coming back here. I think the fact I am not near Lynchburg adds to that. read more

I've been here many times before and I always get the banana split açaí bowl. I was surprised this time that it didn't come with bananas on it since it's in the name... that was disappointing especially since it came with blackberries and I'm not a fan of the seeds so I just didn't eat them. Who wants a banana split with no bananas? lol The jackfruit sliders were a first for me and the butter pickles complement the flavor sooo well. Loved them! read more

I missed lunch on a recent business trip and was starving as I headed toward Richmond. Knowing there would be few healthy options I was thrilled to find Millie's on Yelp. I ordered an acai bowl from a very helpful clerk. It's granola was gluten free and the fruits were fresh and delicious. The portion size was fair for the price and the bowl was delicious. I doubt I'll ever be in Lynchburg again. But if I am I will totally return to Millie's. There were so many more things on the menu that I wanted to try. read more

Great place for healthy or vegan food options. It's small but offers a few indoor and outdoor seats. We don't have a lot of healthy food options in the area so this was a great find. read more

Millie's is a great place for vegans/vegatarians to visit! We enjoyed everything. The Jackfruit sliders are made with vinagar based BBQ, they come on a soft slider roll with a housemate spread and bread n butter pickles. I also had the veggie rice bowl. It was great with a ginger soy flavoring. negative ... I wasn't a fan of their lavender-lemonade. It was weak and watered down. I will definitely try a different drink next time. read more

This is definitely my girlfriend's and my favorite coffee place in all of Lynchburg. We love it not only because the coffee is good, but also because they care about what we eat. Everything here is organic, and all the syrups are made from scratch. The spicy chai I ordered was also made from scratch, using a special syrup they prepared just for me to make it spicier. I highly recommend this place if you're a health enthusiast and a coffee lover. read more

Superb experience. Very clean and friendly atmosphere. I ordered the Southwest Rice Bowl. The chipotle dressing complimented the overall flavor, yet wasn't overpowering. All ingredients tasted fresh and delicious. Portions are just right. I also splurged with a Heavenly Cacao smoothie. It does its name justice. Try it for yourself! Will be back! read more

I will preface this with the statement that I don't really eat vegetarian or vegan food but when my friends invited me out to this cafe to get some studying done I agreed without knowing the stuff they served here. Despite my adversity to vegetables, even I can recognize when a salad is done well and Millie's blew my expectations out of the water. The spring salad I received was full of flavor and freshness, crunch and crispness. the only thing that was slightly odd was the spirulina dressing. Never in my life did I expect this color nor the texture. Never thought I would have to describe a dressing as "chunky" but here we are. Despite the dressing it was a fantastic salad. I also got the oats with banana, maple syrup, and coconut oatmeal. Everything in that cup was fantastic. Well cooked and I enjoyed how the oats weren't swimming in maple syrup. Just a *touch* of maple syrup was in them. All in all, I wouldn't consider myself a vegetable or salad person by any measure but Millie's is deserving of praise for the quality products they provide at reasonable prices. If you like this sorta thing I highly suggest giving it a shot! read more

The bessstttttttttttt açaí bowls. Ever. My favorite one is the dragon one. I'm so glad their bowls are fresh and not frozen. Some other places do the frozen ones and while they are faster they don't taste as good at all. Please don't change! read more

The only place in Lynchburg to get Açaí bowls! If you are into healthy living or you have a friend who is you must check out this place. It's got all sorts of healthy food to try. It is also connected in the back of a health store with all sorts of organic and vitamin rich products. It is a little pricey compared to the restaurants in the area and not much seating. Overall it's a nice place they serve you fairly quickly and it's a bright, clean environment. read more

One of Lynchburg's best breakfast/lunch places! I love coming here for a smoothie or a smoothie bowl (always with coco whip). I've been so impressed with the quality and diversity of choices here. I highly recommend the taco wrap (walnut "meat"!) and veggie Sami (hummus + avocado, LOVE). The only time I was disappointed was with some of their juices, but it's my fault for ordering something called the zinger (they're healthy, but unlike their other offerings, are probably not meant to taste real great). The smoothies, however, are so good! My go-to is heavenly cacao or mint cacao. I'm obsessed. I look forward to trying way more of what they have to offer. The location is right in the beautiful Wyndhurst neighborhood and has a cute outdoor seating area. Highly recommend, especially to my fellow vegetarians, though I've taken family members here who love it, too! read more

The salad had a sauce that was missing something to take it over the top. It was decent though. I did enjoy the taste of the walnut meat though. The Very Vanilla smoothie had a scoop of non dairy ice cream. Be sure to mix it in or you get more of a banana flavored smoothie. It was very good though. The staff were very courteous and I would definitely come back if I'm in Lynchburg again. read more

Millie's was the perfect answer to our need for healthy delicious food while on a recent roadtrip. Wholesome and tasty.

Delicious Jackfruit Sliders! Their seating is limited inside. A few tables were filled with people on their laptops sipping on a drink, not eating. I really enjoyed my meal but I think it's probably best to get it to go next time. read more

Exactly what we were looking for lunch. Ordered smoothies and sandwiches. Everything was very good. Ate at outside table, enjoying the weather then browsed the attached store. Glad we found Millie's! read more

Fresh, delicious and healthy options. Kombucha on tap was tasty. Friendly and fast service.

We were here last month and I can't review on anything else, but I can say that the wheat free bagels were the worse bagels we've ever had. No flavor at all, it was like eating cardboard and the coffee wasn't any better. Big disappointment. read more

Great place for açaí bowls and smoothies. I love that we have a plant based eatery. Looking forward to trying a salad!

I really enjoy the healthier options at Millie's. today for the first time I finally tried an açai bowl. I had the PB&J and it was delicious! I have also had their salads and the chick pea wrap. At first, I was wary about using a collard for the wrap but I felt it went well with the chick pea filling. Definitely would try that one again. They also have kombucha on tap inside. Flavours are intriguing and would like to try it one day. read more

The smoothie bowls are great. They are presented well and taste fresh every time I go. They are expensive though.

This place is OK. Coming from the D.C area has made my taste buds developed higher expectations. I mean Costco's acai bowl is $5 with a lot of stuff. Look it up... First off, the place is cute! I love how they have a store next door that advocates for eating healthy and having a healthier lifestyle. BUT... I understand the fruit I guess has to be frozen, but what caught me off guard was that it had that weird freeze taste. You know when you leave something in the freezer for too long, that's what I tasted. They call it Pitahaya or some other name, but honestly why not just call it dragon fruit. Also, it did not taste like dragon fruit at all! It's mainly grown in South East Asia so I'm somewhat skeptical of how authentic the dragon fruit really is. read more

Health food in Lynchburg is not an easy find for someone who does not eat meat or most dairy products. Millie's caters to all food restrictions in a unique way. I have been coming here regularly for several years now and have enjoyed the consistency in quality food and good service. They are known for their açaí bowls which are exceptional, but my favorites are the daily soups and veggie sandwiches. I recommend taking a good look at the menu because there are some hidden gems that may be overlooked because the açaí bowls are very aesthetically pleasing. They also offer local kombucha which is worth the try! read more

The bowls had no flavor. very over priced for what you're getting. my friends bowl had a frozen chuck of the smoothie in it which means they're not fresh. not worth your money don't come here. read more

We're from out of town and were happy to find this place. PB&J bowl was excellent as well as the Jackfruit sliders. Would return again. Good service, nice atmosphere. read more

Had the original acai bowl, large. While it was being made I wander around the store that is connected to it. Don't remember the name of the store but it was the natural store vibe. The bowl was really good, fresh fruit and a good size. Oddly my companion really liked it to, it's not big enough to share! It is small inside and probably has people that hang out long after they're done so considered take out. read more

Wow. Raw, vegan, creative food! Beautifully presented, thoughtfully prepared - so yummy! The bowls? Ridiculous! So good! Go. Immediately. Clean food, great staff, your body will thank you! read more

The Pros: healthiest option in the area, grocery store attached is great. The Cons: over priced for what you get, not really a dinner menu, dishes are out of package or near this prep. Menu is on the basic side. I'm well versed in vegan or vegetarian dishes. The menu is very simple with little "from scratch" effort. I understand the demographic they are up against, but thought more effort was needed to show new customers how good Vegan food can be. Found some inconsistencies in menu vs posters of advertised dishes they make (food allergy people be careful) Give this place a try no matter how much you love meat, I would suggest the chick pea wrap thing (forgot their name for it) was tasty and filling. BONUS: The grocery store that it is in, was a very nice surprise, save some money (if you can) and walk the isles, buy something and get inspired and try to make something at home off the menu. I hope this place makes it. read more

I love Millie's! The food is always delicious, and they have plenty of different menu options based on dietary preference. This is one of the few places in Lynchburg that I would recommend to other plant based eaters. The staff is very friendly. I would definitely recommend coming here for delicious food, and to support a local business. read more

So cute and absolutely delicious. I had the almond salad with pickled beets and cucumbers. Excellent coffee.

Millie's is my favorite, go-to spot in Lynchburg. They have a wide range of vegan foods, with a great variety of drinks as well. The available bowls are a must try- there are usually around 6 different kinds you can choose from. The avocado on a whole grain bagel is another favorite. If you're a kombucha fan, then this is your spot, as they have a variety of flavors on tap. It is also conveniently connected to Health Nut Nutrition, which provides supplements, vitamins, essential oils, and much more. It also has a mini market section with a lot of healthy alternatives to what you would find at the grocery store. It's any health freaks dream collaboration. I think the biggest complaint with Millie's is the high prices, but I would point out that the food is fresh, and excellent quality, which is something that is worth paying for. Not only this, but if you eat Millie's as a meal, and not a snack, then it is the same price, if not less than other local quick food places. read more
