I had the Greek plate. Hummus was under spiced, pita could have been better. It was fresh and a special so no real big complaints just nothing super interesting. read more

I love this place! The people are friendly and the food has a lot of flavor. They also have online ordering so it's fast to pick up for lunch read more

I CANT BELIEVE I HAVENT REVIEWED THIS PLACE ALREADY WITH THE AMOUNT OF TIMES IVE EATEN HERE. This is a blessing tbh. This place truly blesses me. I'm being 100 when I say there is NOTHING BAD on this menu. Absolutely nothing. I've had like all of their bowls and they are all outstanding. Now, the price may seem large but you get SO MUCH FOOD. I'm stuffed after every single time. Now, let's talk about the vegan cookie dough.... WOW. This is the best dessert in the city of Nashville. I can't even describe it, you just have to go for yourself. It is like the best thing you'll ever put in your mouth. I've gotten it once a week. I'm not kidding. Sunflower Cafe, just take all my money. I love you guys. Thanks for making my vegan dreams come true read more

I wanted so bad to fall in love with this place due to all the raving I heard about it, but unfortunately, my heart was not stolen. The parking lot is extremely cramped and honestly quite terrible for your tires - and it was a little hard to find. It's a cute little place that resembles more of a house than a restaurant, but I think the exterior really added to the "homey" feeling. When you first walk in, you can take a peek at their specials & menu before you order. The kitchen is open faced, so they make the food right in front of you and you get to see them scoop out your various side dishes. I'm personally not a fan of the open-faced kitchen concept, mostly because if you sit too long to chat with your friends while you eat, then you leave the restaurant smelling something awful. The food wasn't impressive. I ordered the All American veggie burger with pita bread & sriracha hummus on the side. The patty was so plain! I was reading the reviews and most people said that the burgers were so well made that I didn't need condiments - but I definitely needed condiments. I wasn't fond of the texture either. I'm a huge fan of veggie burgers, but this didn't really make my top 10 list. I really liked the sriracha hummus though! But 4 pieces of pita for a HUGE bowl of hummus wasn't a great ratio - it allowed me to take home more than 3/4ths of what I was served to save for later, so it wasn't a total loss. The pita bread was good and paired well with the hummus. read more

Amazing, amazing, amazing! I had the mushroom burger bowl and it was delicious. My wife had the mushroom burger with a side of pad thai and she loved it. The workers here were so friendly and helpful with us making decisions. It's a good problem to have when everything looks so good you dont know what to get! read more

Stopped at this place when I was in Nashville and got the Southwest Salad and potato salad. Both were great and I loved the fact they gave you a free sample on something if you've never had it before, the staff was knowledgable on what ingredients they use and everything is vegan/ vegetarian. I took it to go so I can't rate on the dine in experience but I enjoyed the bar of food they had, located in a weird spot but the place is super nice and clean! Will be back again when I am in the area. Update; I have been to this place 3 or 4 times since I've visited Nasvhille TN and have yet to be dissapointed. The employees are really nice and always greet you as you come in. I've gotten to southwest salad multiple times and it's just so good, my body always seems to be craving greens and this salad is fulfilling since it has beans / corn / and a delicious chipotle dressing. Potato salad is bomb ( my love for potatoes always makes me get this ) and the chickpea curry salad is yummy as well. Great place, great staff, great atmosphere, everyone eating here always seems to be really happy :) read more

I'd eaten here a couple times when I lived in Nashville and brought her for lunch during our most recent trip through town. "You gotta try this. God almighty!" she exclaimed after the first bite. And it was delicious. We had the hot chicken sandwich, hot & sour soup, Thai ginger tofu, and sesame kale - all vegan. Not one bite disappointed. Additionally, the place was clean, had a welcoming vibe, and the staff were very nice. We recommend it highly even if you're not a vegetarian. read more

My mom and I visited Nashville for the first time and she's an omnivore. She got the Aloha Burger and really loved it! It was different than what I had her try in the past- I believe the patty was made out of nuts and seeds- but she honestly enjoyed it! I got the tempeh BBQ wrap and that was absolutely delicious- one of the best wraps I have had in awhile. The daily soup was pumpkin and it was creamy, savory and sweet- very enjoyable. The inside is humble and welcoming. There are several staff working there, all friendly and ready to serve with a smile. I highly recommend the "mousse" items they have in their refrigerator. read more

This is one of the most fairly priced vegan food places I've found in my travels throughout the country. Food featuring fresh, often organic and locally sourced veg. Food was good. Service was good. Very casual environment. Good for a quick healthy lunch. read more

Tried this place for the first time last week. I ordered the BBQ burger online. There was a little hold up as something went wrong with their online system, but it only delayed my pick up time a few minutes. The burger was delicious and I could barely tell it wasn't meat. read more

First time here... I'll say off the bat I'm not a vegan/vegetarian by any stretch. Still, I'd heard good things and grabbed lunch here with a friend. The atmosphere is quaint and cheerful. The main indoor eating area isn't too big, but there's also an outdoor patio or two. The food was tasty. I got a bowl, which seemed a bit on the pricey side to me, but I enjoyed it (me, a carnivore). I found everything tasty and like that it at least seemed healthy! Final thoughts: if you're a vegan/vegetarian, you very well may love this place. If you're not a typical vegetarian cuisiner, you'll likely still enjoy a meal/snack here. Recommended! PS - The sides looked tasty, too, though I didn't get any! read more

Have been here a few times and food is always really good. I'm not vegan but I enjoy eating vegan food from time to time and theirs does not disappoint! read more

Amazing vegan food! I recently drove 3 hours just for the BBQ bowl with quinoa and kale. It's really that delicious!

So excited to find yummy vegan places to go when I travel!! The staff is super friendly and the place is big enough to eat inside or out. Tons of tables. Super busy, which is nice to see a vegan place so popular. I tried the buffalo Tempe salad. It was ok. The dill dressing on its own is amazing. But it wasn't my favorite combined with the buffalo Tempe. The buffalo Tempe is very spiced for those who love spices and I do. I wish the tomatos were cut up as well. Not just spices. I also got the Asian coleslaw which was divine for a side! I highly recommend it. Next time I would try the Thai ginger bowl knowing what I know now. The ginger kombucha is pretty tasty as well. Yay for vegan food! read more

Love Sunflower cafe! Familiar with them from ATL was excited to see them in Nashville. Was there for the weekend 2 days & ate here twice lol shredded bbq sandwich is bomb! read more

I went to Nashville for a show recently and I decided to go here. This was my first time in Nashville and my friend and I were looking for a place with vegan options and this place popped up. I've never been more thrilled with a menu at any other restaurant I've ever been to. I wanted to try everything. Unfortunately I didn't have the financial capacity nor the stomach space to fulfill that wish but I got the BBQ tempeh wrap and she got a bahn mi and we shared the platter that has a little of everything on it and it was so reasonably priced. We were so happy with everything and the staff was great. I wanted to go see another show in Nashville just to visit this restaurant again! Every dish starts off vegan too so there wasn't that awkward asking about whether I could eat something and still being unsure even after being told I could. I would recommend this to anyone though! read more

Sunflower Cafe - Every bite was perfect. The bahn mi is a little bit messy to eat on that flat bread but is still one of the best things I have tasted. Ever. - Cafes Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

AMAZING! Don't make it complicated. Try it as is! Just pick 2-3 things and just let your taste buds enjoy all of the flavor in this delicious food. So happy this place exists. read more

Sunflower Cafe & Sunflower Bakehouse are my favorite vegan restaurants! I wish they had a location in Antioch! I would go everyday!

Twice in 3 days and what we had was so good the first time, we ordered EXACTLY the same meals the second time. Tasty vegan food with many food allergy options like soy or oil free, too. Incredibly friendly staff. You order at the counter, they make it (sort of like Subway does it except with good food), and then you pay at the counter. You also bus your own tables. This all keeps the prices low. We will go back every time we are in Nashville. read more

Made a quick stop here while passing thru Nashville. Great atmosphere with outdoor seating and dog friendly. Interesting and diverse vegan menu. I ordered both the vegan BBQ and the Tempeh vegan BBQ, which I believe was gluten free. Both with a spinach wrap. Enjoyed both of them. Would definitely return again to try other items on the menu. read more

Oh. My. Gosh. You gotta go here. It is amazing and the food I had was flavorful and just so good. I've been vegan for a while and this is one of the best places I've ever eaten at. Sadly, I'm just passing through but if I wasn't I think I would eat here for lunch and dinner everyday lol. I had the bbq wrap and chick pea salad.... I'll be dreamin bout it read more

Such a wonderful food allergen/ conscious kitchen with rich and tasty food that makes eating healthy a pleasure. Love the Southern Barbecue Sandwich but am aiming to return and try more of the menu! read more

This is my favorite restaurant in the greater Nashville area. I get something different every time. I enjoy the flavor, variety, nutrition and textures of the food. I love being with other vegans to partake in cuisine that doesn't involve abuse and harm to animals. The staff is great. read more

I've probably ordered almost everything on their menu. I love all of the options. This is a great quick lunch / dinner spot.

For a vegetarian, this is heaven. It might almost be intimidating, with the number of good selections. I've never had bad food here.

I appreciate having the option for veg food but I don't particularly love the Sunflower Cafe. But I want to so I will give them another chance. I felt the flavors are a bit off and there's room to expand. read more

Great place - happy staff, quick service, excellent good. Loving the outdoor seating - nice shade and fans. I'll be back! read more

This has been a staple of mine for 8 years. Healthy, nourishing and affordable. The classic sunflower burger is what I normally get

I am not vegan. Might not ever be. But I picked up some of their Mac and cheese with the herb bread crumbs and man was it good. I don't really have anything bad to say about it as I always try to honestly review all of the restaurants I review but let's just say I will be back! read more

What a cute little cafe. The staff was very friendly and even accommodated my indecision on sides by letting me do half and half. It was a very relaxed ambiance and cafeteria style service (order through a line and get your tray at the end). I had the mushroom veggie burger (so good) and the arugula veggie burger (plain compared to the other). I got the broccoli salad (excellent) and the kale salad (just okay) as sides. Would definitely go back. read more

First time here. I'm not vegan or vegetarian but i enjoy food so i stopped in! I got the southern bbq veggie burger and it was surprisingly very good! Lots of flavor! They have a lot of options i think would satisfy any type of eater! I will definitely be back! read more

I don't leave many reviews but I had to come here. The atmosphere is nice, the restaurant is in like a little barn house or something, really home style. I didn't see the crab cakes on the menu and I went, I am assuming I had to ask for them. I had the traditional bbq bowl with kale....sweet potatoes on the side, there's no pic because I couldn't wait to dig in. The Kale was amazingly cooked. The bbq tempeh was delicious as well. read more

Wow! So good we went back within a week. Between my wife and I (and a friend we met for dinner), I've tried a couple of different burgers, a quinoa bowl, and a BBQ wrap, and they were all amazing. Crazy amazing. The place has a super casual vibe, you order up front and take the food back to your table and get your own drinks (a la Chipotle). The staff seems to be in a good mood and chatting it up with each other and customers (feels more like you are eating in a friend's kitchen than a restaurant). And nothing was particularly inexpensive-but I everything tasted great and seemed like it was made with high quality ingredients. Will definitely be back. Often read more

Absolutely astonished with this place! My fiancé and I came here and ordered traditional BBQ wrap and the portabella wrap with pad Thai and potato salad as our sides. All vegan and oh my goodness... words can not describe the deliciousness. The traditional BBQ was stupid good, by far my favorite of the two even though the other wrap was also super yummy, it had a pineapple sauce on it that was out of this world, it was very refreshing. Both were light but I was so full but not gross feeling like after eating animal products. The BBQ was incredible, really was better than any BBQ sandwich I've ever had the coleslaw that was in it was key! And the sides were amazing as well. We also got the spinach wrap which I highly recommend, it was so soft and tasty. Then to top it off we got the chocolate chip cookie dough parfait and oh my gosh this was the business!!! I had to stop Lance from buying more haha it was so amazing and tasted like cookie dough but somehow better omg I'm in love with this place. And now I'm regretting not buying the parfait to go!! Incredible vegan restaurant and even if you aren't vegan, GO TRY IT OUT. Might change your mind about being vegan. Flavors are so out of this world! I wish I could eat here everyday! read more

My veggie burger was delicious and filling. Only reservation in recommending this place is the presentation - but it's not the kind of environment or restaurant you'd expect things to look well plated. More of a hometown, vegan, hippie diner kind of feel. If you're in the mood for a veggie burger, check this spot out! read more

Meh. It's very granola here. My vegan husband appreciates this place and really likes it. It is seriously just meh to me. I do like the patio in the back. Parking here is a beast so get ready to be on the hunt for a space. I don't feel it is worth it. read more

I was a Vegan for 20 years and a Vegetarian for 20 years before that. I went to this place with a friend who is not a vegetarian and I won't be back. It was just too dirty, I was handed a cup that had globs of stuff on it. When I asked for a clean cup, the staffer made a big show of holding the cup up to the light and looking it over. (There were food stuffs stuck to it!) She showed me two more filmy, covered in fingerprint, cups and I opted for plastic. I ate my mushy fruit salad with my fingers after seeing how dirty the silverware was. (Again, food stuff stuck on.) Not exactly a healthy place either, the food was way too sugary for me. read more
