    This place is awesome! The food is incredible, the atmosphere is awesome and the staff are so friendly and helpful. Definitely stop in here. They have plenty of options to choose on their menu and a full pastry case with so many incredible desserts!

    Deserts of all kinds, wants and desires! They were different the next day! Oh my!

    I have been wanting to go here for years. Finally made it! Yay me! This place is quirky little gem. Small menu but mighty! Everything is fresh and homemade. I was welcomed in. All the workers worked well together and had each others backs. You order at the counter. They give you a number and they tell you we will bring it to you. You can sit inside, outside under a covered patio , tables with umbrellas or picnic table with no cover next to a beautiful wall of bamboo and mixed trees. I order the falafel wrap. She told me they make them and the lemon tahini sauce. Love that! I was so excited could not wait to sink my teeth into that wrap. They also make sweet potato fries that seem to be a crowd favorite. I Choose not to. I really wanted clean potato chips but they did not have them on the menu. I also order fresh Jasmin tea. They do not add sugar to their tea. Perfect! I Chose to sit outside at the table with the umbrellas that faced their planters that attracted bees and butterflies and soaked up a little sun while sipping on my tea and watching nature waiting for my lunch. It was a perfect place to wait. The falafel wrap was simple but so fresh. Had a little crunch small size falafels chopped up inside with lettuce, tomatoes, purple onions and homemade lemon tahini sauce with some on the side to dip each bit in for extra protein. Yummo! Presentation of the two side of the wrap was well connected with a large stick one flat and standing up. It was so good I came back the next day and ordered another one with 2 extra falafel on the side and brought my own Seite potato chips and sucked it down with another glass of jasmine tea. So relaxing and nice place to get recharged. Oh! Almost forgot to tell you that all the deserts are homemade with tons of gluten free and vegan option. I tried the flat crusted pastry tart with almond cream center and fresh raspberries. Not sweet but savory and delicious. Took two bites and saved the rest for later will! It was even better after it sat out all day. I gobbled it up and licked the parchment paper. lol! You remember I went back the next day. Ok! I order another desert. Oh my stars! The chocolate chip blonde. Was so sinful. I could only have one bit. Listen everybody! You will not want to go back to work after experiencing this little piece of heaven.

    Been here twice now and the food is very good. Never thought a vegan restaurant would be a destination spot, but I like it a lot! Service is always kind, the portions are huge, and the flavors are wonderful. I keep ordering the falawsome, and never manage to catch a picture, but my daughter ordered the Reuben and I snapped one of it. Wow, that's one tasty sandwich. There aren't any frills here, just good food. I already can't wait to go back.

    This vegetarian restaurant is a mostly outdoor setup, with a few picnic tables set up, and some seats shaded with others not. Quite a few people shared. It's a bit out in the sticks; oddly the only other business nearby is a meat shop. Somebody here took the stop sign and put a sticker on it to troll the butchers I think. I got a Thai tea which had an interesting spice flavor and lasted until my meal came. They had a sandwich special with blackened tofu and Cajun sauce that I thought would be tasty and it was. I am a bit miffed that in choosing a side, I got charged extra for a salad, which really wasn't that big of a salad. Other people's sides like fries and hummus looked more worthwhile. Particularly odd for a vegetarian restaurant to punish you for picking the healthier choice. But for a vegetarian looking for food in the Florida panhandle, this is a worthwhile find.

    Quesadilla and Sweet Potato Fries
    Frank P.

    I've been looking for a new vegetarian restaurant in town and this place really hit the spot. This was my first time trying their food and it was very good. I'm almost embarrassed that I waited this long to try them out. For my first time I had the cheese quesadilla and the sweet potato fries. I try to eat meatless on Monday so it was a nice change up for me. Both items were very good and I enjoyed them. I have to come back later so I can try the dessert.

    Sweet pea Cafe is one of a kind! The dining experience is nice. The restaurant may seem a bit small inside but very spacious outside, very vibrant and cute! The servers are very nice and was very patient with us deciding what to order. The menu especially the baked goods varies from week to week almost day to day sometimes. Eating at Sweet pea cafe is like eating at home. Their food are made from scratch and made with delicate ingredients since the menu's all vegetarian! I appreciate their crafts because their food is delicious!! In addition, they almost always have limited time specials of the day that feeds your adventurous side, just check out their social medias!

    I've come here several times and I'm never disappointed. I love that they are totally vegan and eco-friendly. Besides that, the food is always excellent. The Buffalo tofu sandwich is my favorite. They had sparkling lemonade as a special on the day I went- it was super bubbly and had just the right amount of sweetness. My table mates enjoyed their black bean burger and quesadilla. The carrot ginger slaw was a big hit. The staff is always super friendly and helpful. I love this place and can't wait to return!

    If you coming down I10 and don't mind a little drive stop by here. It was definitely worth the stop. Top tier customer service. The food is delicious and so is the lemonade. We sat outside and enjoyed the weather while we ate.

    What a good stop along our route home. They're friendly and their food is tasty. They need a Yelp sticker. I forgot to take a picture of all the stickers they do have. I saved the 2 desserts for later because I'm very full from my delicious lunch. I got the special with sweet potato fries and tasted my husband's side of pickled veggies. Which were amazing!! Outdoor seating on a perfect day with a cool breeze and dog friendly.

    Tofuevos Rancheros
    Marian L.

    Outside sitting and brunch... simple, small and easy going Sweet Pea sits just off the street. Order at the counter and they will bring it out to you in short order. I choose the "tofuevos ranchero", which was quite delish and very filling. Tofu scramble with rice beans and tomato on two corn tortillas. The cumin was a bit strong for my preference, but it was still a good start to my day. They were out of a few things I would liked to have tried, but this is a small and vegan focused place. Most enjoyable was sitting outside on a warm winter morning enjoying a good meal.

    The poutine was delicious!

    A wonderful vegan cafe! I'm so glad that I stopped here on a cross-country road trip for some food. I ordered ahead (no dine in) and had the Reuben sandwich and poutine. It was all very filling! I have high standards for a vegan Reuben sandwich. I've tried many across America, but the rueben at Sweet Pea might just be the best I've had anywhere. It was a heaping sandwich, packed with flavor and color. Poutine is not commonly found in the states, especially in the South, so I knew I had to try some. Wow! I always crave fries and this was a deliciously loaded side. I appreciated that the fries under the cheesy gravy were not soggy! I loved the food so very much, but I do have a minor complaint about the ordering process. It might not even be their fault... As I was traveling, I strategically ordered ahead. The website said food would be ready to pick up in 40 minutes. Great! I timed just trip so that I would get there a few minutes early, just in case. Shockingly, I got a message 20 minutes later that my food was done 30 minutes early. When I picked up the food, the sandwich and poutine were already cold. I still enjoyed my meal, but maybe there's a way to fix the timing issue with orders? As a result, you might plan on showing up extra early if you order ahead. Overall, I thought the food was amazing here and I'd love to come back sometime!

    Falawesome and ginger carrot slaw

    As a frequent meat eater, I must say Sweet Pea is flavorful and fulfilling even if the person eating there is not vegan or even vegetarian. To date, I have been to Sweet Pea a handful of times and they never disappoint! I few of my favorites are the Buffalo sandwich and I last tried the falafel wrap. My daughter and her friend imbibed in their vegan baked goods and both remarked at how they were delicious and tasted no different than a traditional baked good made with cow-based dairy products. The service is always polite and fast as well. There is a nice outdoor area to sit and eat and they take part in recycling and composting for green-oriented customers.

    The Big Salad
    Madison S.

    We stopped in Tallahassee for lunch on our way to Orlando. We usually try to find something local and unique when traveling, and I found this place on Yelp! The menu was great! I've never had or heard of tempeh before which was one of their protein options. I'm pretty adventurous so I had to give it a try! It was super good! I also found it quite ironic that there was a meat shop next door to this vegan restaurant...

Service throughout the meal felt attentive but relaxed. Our server checked in at the right times and kept things moving without rushing us out. It felt like a place people actually enjoy working at, which made the whole experience nicer.

The Chips were freshly fried and were thin and salty. The Queso dip was good and what was to be expected. Our food some out as it was ready. First, my Carnitas Street Taco. I will say it looked like it might be dry but it was actually very flavorful and the Green Chili sauce was a great add too. The Fried Mahi Tacos were also pretty good. I liked that they came with a Corn Salsa and Remoulade Sauce. This actually made them much better then expected with great flavor. I will say the rice and beans were OK at best. Kinda what you expect at Mexican restaurant, basically being an after thought. All and all The Iron Daisy was pretty good for a quick lunch or dinner.

We started by ordering Chicken 65 and Samosas for an appetizer. They took forever and came out barely warm. For dinner, my wife ordered the chicken korma and I the Chole (Chana) Masala. We also ordered the butter naan and the cheese and garlic naan. My wife's dish was okay. It's not as good as several other places in town. My dish was really weird. It's one of my favorites, usually, but this came out as a thin brown sauce with chickpeas that has just been taken out of the can...a bit al dente. This was not the usually thick masala that I've had many other places. This sank right through the rice. It was not good and I did not take it home as leftovers. The naan, for which you pay $3-4 was a single piece of naan cut into four pieces. The garlic cheese naan had garlic butter and a cheese powder of some sort sprinkled on top. Not a good value. There are other, more amazing Indian restaurants in town that we will continue to frequent. We've given this two tries and won't be back.
