I had asked my dear friend if she was free last Friday over a month ago. She was. We planned on a late lunch. We normally figure out a place to eat closer to when we'd be meeting up. My friend is vegan. Peterborough has a good vegan eatery scene. I did a search and Revelstoke Cafe popped up. Oddly, I had never been. I asked my friend if she was good coming here. She was. Yay! I indicated that I'd arrive at either 2:30 pm or 3 pm. Well, the volume of folks with canoes on their vehicles or boats hitched to them picked up as I drove east. I let my friend know that I'd be there at 3 pm instead. She was good with that. She got there before I did and let me know where she was parked. She had also got a table for us. I let her know that I was ten minutes later than expected. Long weekend traffic will do that to you. I parked on George Street North, across from this restaurant. My approach was super slow trying to figure out where this restaurant was. It's in a residential neighbourhood, but it's right at the corner of George and Edinburgh. It's free parking all day on this street. I walked in. I saw the kitchen and all staff working away. They were friendly. They said hi. I reciprocated and said hi to my friend. I walked over. It was nearly a two-hour drive over. I needed to use the washroom. It's a single stall that everyone uses. It was clean. The floor isn't level, so the door only opens halfway. I also used it before I left and continued eastbound. My friend had already ordered an iced maple chai latte. It looked yummy. She let me know that any coffee on the menu could be made iced. The berry hibiscus lemonade caught my attention, so I ordered it. My first instinct was to hit the brunch menu and get the west coast scramble. However, I took one look at the mushroom hash and was sold. It didn't surprise my friend. I am a huge fan of mushrooms. She got the burrito bowl. It had a vegan version of beef in it. Cool! We chatted a bit. My drink came out first. It was excellent! I love hibiscus and berries together. The lemonade brightened this drink up. It was cold and refreshing for a warm summery day. My friend enjoyed her iced maple chai latte. She said that it wasn't overly sweet with the maple in it. The chai was a good strength and oat beverage was in there to smooth things out. Our mains came out next. Her beef burrito bowl looked so good, especially with a sliced, fanned avocado in the middle. She was about the dig in when she remembered that I liked taking photos of food, so she gave me a bit of time to take a pic before she went for it. She loved her burrito bowl. The flavours were on point. The vegan beef was tender. The veggies were fresh. It looked yummy. I need to try it someday. I loved my mushroom hash. The potatoes were pan-fried and were perfectly done. They were seasoned nicely. The mushrooms were sautéed and delicious. The tofu that simulated a poached egg was super silky. The hollandaise sauce was generous and made this hash awesome. I asked about dessert. This place only had some molasses item that didn't scream for me to get it. She did say that there were cinnamon buns tomorrow. My timing was off. Ugh! Anyway, we got the bill. My friend paid cash her for meal. I paid with a credit card. I tapped and tipped. We both thanked her. My friend and I continued to chat. We were there for three hours. Staff did not mind that we hung around after having paid. There was air conditioning. Before we left, a big ceiling fan over us was activated. We did not feel hot at all during our time here. I can't wait to return. I loved eating here and meeting up with my friend. I highly recommend coming here if you are in Peterborough, whether you are vegan or not. The food is scrumptious and staff are nice. (220) read more

Very sad that the Toronto location closed down. We always make sure to stop in on our way through Peterborough. Good coffee drinks, cocktails and vegan options. It's a small intimate space and they have a very small outdoor patio in the summer. Definitely recommend if you are in the area. read more

I placed an order for a vegan cake, and they let me know that it was a Cinnabon Cake! When I tell you EVERYONE loved the cake.. they all 1. couldn't believe it was vegan and 2. couldn't believe how good it was. I even bought a lil coffee to go and that was delicious. can't wait to come back and dine in. read more

Revelstoke Cafe - Their Vegan Cinnabon Cake - Vegan Near Me - Peterborough, Ontario

Totally awesome cinnamon buns! To die for! I will be back. ( nice beer selection too! )

My partner and I were visiting from out of town and this place popped up when we looked for vegan places. We checked out Revelstoke on our second day for lunch. I wasn't too hungry but my partner was. Being new to town, we checked out this place first, then checked out another place down the street; that place didn't tickle our fancy so we returned to Revelstoke. Such a cute little place with friendly faces. Tasha took care of us. My partner ordered the Tomato-Basil soup and Tasha was able to accommodate and provide her a grilled-cheese sandwich at an extra cost to have with her soup. My partner was super happy that the grilled cheese came with a side of ketchup on the side lol. For myself, I ordered a cappuccino with soy milk and a fresh out of the oven raspberry scone. Although not gluten-free (I have a mild sensitivity to gluten), it was beyond delicious!!!! The icing on top was perfect, all in moderation and the scone was worth it! My partner thought so as well. However, I have to commend Tasha on the Cappuccino! I've been to many vegan places where the cappuccino is slightly off (for some reason, whether it be the milk or the way it's made), but Tasha made it perfectly! I almost ordered another one! When we return to Peterborough, we will definitely return to Revelstoke! Chef and Tasha were super friendly, it felt like being greeted by two friends! Thank you for making our stayacation that much more memorable! Delicious food, treats, baked goods, coffee and food and great prices! A gem of a place to enjoy any meal! read more

We almost skipped going here because it had no yelp reviews, but that would have been a huge mistake! The food was so good. Make sure you try anything with the rice paper 'bacon'- I had the Stoker Sammy. Kind of like a vegan BLT, yum! My daughter had the Revy Burger and loved it. Limited choices on the menu, but we wanted to try more than one thing and found it hard to decide. It's in a residential area and sitting on the patio it has a nice local feel to it. There is also limited seating inside if the weather is bad. Staff is friendly and washroom is open (in August 2020 that's a big deal, right?). I'll be going again next time I'm in Peterborough. read more

We ate at the Cabbagetown, Toronto location for the first time today. The food was awesome, although the service was a bit challenging. The server was lovely, but perhaps the restaurant was understaffed. We will definitely be back as it is in our 'hood and the food was impressive. This location just needs a bit of tweaking with staffing and decor. We love having a vegan place in Cabbagetown! read more
