I can safely say that we have sampled countless vegan and vegan-option places but NONE compare to Little Loaf! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with the kindest, warmest, people who make you feel instantly welcomed! The space is incredibly inviting and full of positive and supportive energy--it's the kind of place you instantly want to come back to. And we have - over and over again! From Colleen, the chef and co-owner who couldn't be more lovely, talented and bighearted, to Gabriella (whom I believe is the kitchen manager) and who is above and beyond delightful and gracious- to Ryan, the co- owner who brings such warmth and kindness to this terrific place that you can understand why it attracts likeminded people, to Inka who always checks us out at he counter with a warmth and a smile! And the pastries... WOW!! They are hands down the best vegan pastries we've ever had! Every single one is fresh, beautifully made, and absolutely delicious. We also tried several of the sandwiches, and everything has been outstanding. It's obvious that everything is made and filled with love, care, and exceptional attention to quality. Whether you're vegan or not, this bakery is a true gem. Amazing food, truly wonderful people, and an atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. We can't wait to come back and try even more. This place has earned customers for life. If I could give this place more than 5 stars I would! Highly, highly recommended!

All the outdoor tables have umbrellas. Dog friendly. You order and pay inside (tip: know your table number when you go to order). We tried two of their salads (Waldorf, southwest Cobb)... we enjoyed them all... very fresh, good sized. Got both of these on both trips in. The turkey BLT wrap was great! Parking - we parked in a lot behind the restaurant. Most people had to pay the meter but we had a handicap hangtag and the handicap spot was free. Would def recommend!

Boy, are there a lot of post-hike options in New Paltz. I stopped by here this past Saturday…read moreafternoon after an 8.7-mile hike in nearby Minnewaska State Park. The weather had been pretty mediocre throughout the day but that clearly hadn't stopped the tourists from invading the downtown area - the place was teeming with people when I came in around 3pmish. I didn't do a ton of research on potential eating spots (a lot of SE Asian eateries, which seemed kind of random?) but picked Lola's because it was a block or two from where I parked, and I immediately imprinted on the Short Rib Grilled Cheese when I saw it on the online menu. Decision made. Since it was starting to get a little nicer out, I would have liked a spot outside in the front patio. But the girl at the check-in (I feel like there's a much better term for that) asked me to go inside, which for sure was a bias against the fact that I was a solo diner. I get it in theory, but it's not fun to get treated like a second-class citizen because you don't have a posse with you in a tourist trap. Regardless, the interior was fine; looked like it had been redone within the last year or so; what it lacked in personality it made up for in terms of overall spiffiness (and the area where the personality DID come through was in the bathroom area, with tongue-in-check "Whatever" gender signs on the doors and edgy art by the sinks. Tell me you're a college town without telling me you're a college town.). The set-up in here is more casual than I assumed; I was told that my table was #10 (the numbers were clearly marked on each table, reminiscent of Smashburger), and that once I decided what I wanted, I needed to go up to the counter to order. Someone WOULD serve the food, but a big chunk of the experience is DIY. I ordered the aforementioned Short Rib Grilled Cheese w/ Fries, along with a Diet Pepsi, and waited. I thought this was pretty inefficient, as there were plenty of employees nearby who easily could have just taken my order at the table instead of having me sit down, then stand up and walk across the restaurant to order, and then sit back down. The wait was a little longer than I would have guessed, just given the straightforward order and casual, almost fast-food style to the business model; it took close to 20 minutes to get my sandwich, I'd guess. Not egregious, and there WERE a number of other customers on the premises as well. The Grilled Cheese was just okay - I tend to grade on a curve after a hike, but I thought it was really drippy/greasy, and I wasn't crazy about the tomato compote it came with (which is a personal palate preference and something that WAS specifically referenced on the menu and I didn't request its exclusion; easy to remove, regardless). The short ribs aspect was unsurprisingly the best part. The fries were decent; a little pale but cooked through. There was a pickle hidden underneath them that was a little emotionally upsetting but it is what it is. This was fine and could have been worse, but the next time I'm in town I'm going to keep walking down the street and trying one of the many other options nearby. The target demo for this feels a little more 2am college student than hungry hiker in the afternoon.

We order various dishes from a great menu selection: Burger good but overcooked Chicken and waffles very good. Crispy and juicy. Waffles with berries very good and fresh. But not having real maple syrup is a major let down Roast beef sandwich very good. Little overcooked but good. Onion rings fresh and crispy. Vineyard eggs with chorizo. Perfectly cooked and delicious. Would of preferred bigger pieces of chorizo instead of tiny ground pieces. Coffee good but not hot enough. Teas served perfectly steaming hot. Service was prompt and friendly. Patio is great when nice weather and chairs are super comfortable.

And the vibe? Super warm, relaxed, no nonsense. Feels like a local spot in the best way. Consistent, quality, and always hits. One of my favorites in the Hudson valley.

We ordered that every time we have eaten here in the past. Weird burger combos were noted. I asked about a burger with gorgonzola cheese - instead of the feta cheese that came on one of the burgers. I was told no - they don't have any. Their other restaurant right next door makes a gorgonzola burger. They are always going back and forth to get stuff - why couldn't they just say yes, and grab a bit of gorgonzola from next door? Note that this was around 5:00 pm and there was just one other table occupied, and two people at the bar who were leaving. I wanted a burger, but didn't like any of the weird choices, so I got a Reuben sandwich. The fries were good, but for $17, I would have hoped the corned beef would be good as well. It wasn't very moist or fresh - in fact there were weird brown areas on the meat. I chalked it up to a bad choice. My partner ordered the Philly steak sandwich on a baguette. He has had the French dip sandwich there in the past and liked it. Unfortunately it was no longer on the menu, so he ordered the closest thing. He said he would not order it again, and that says a lot. I tasted it - and it was just not very good. Sorry to say but it is unlikely we will be back.
