I really wanted to like this place. I'm a vegetarian and working towards being vegan. This is about a 40 minute drive for me and the first 2 times I tried to eat there they were closed (even though it was within their normal business hours). I asked around town and was told that they open and close randomly. Why would a business not be open during their own business hours?? The third time I called to be sure they were open, they were but had a very (and I mean very ) limited menu. I tired the chick pea wrap which looked delicous but had no seasoning of any kind. Even salt and pepper would have made it so much better and onions, chives, spices would have made it good. Friendly staff, long wait for food and everything served on disposable plates or styrofoam containers. I hope it's just because they're new but I won't be making the drive again. read more

This amazing little vegan cafe in Pitman, NJ. warms my heart and fills my belly. Whether you are vegan or not, the Gentle Giant cafe has delicious comfort foods. Scrambles, beyond burgers, breakfast sammies, bowls, and vegan macaroni & cheese...mmmm. I'm getting hungry just thinking about this place. The owners are the sweetest people, and work so hard to provide great food for the surrounding community. I also love that they choose different charities, rescues, and animal sanctuaries to donate money to. If you have not yet checked them out, please do, you won't be disappointed.

This was a perfect amount and everything was very delicious! Both of us are not vegan or vegetarian (we love meat), but wanted to try something healthier and we're so happy to stumble upon this spot! It was absolutely delicious! The cauliflower wings were well cooked and slightly crispy, while the sauce complimented it perfectly. The sauce did get a little oily by the end, but was so delicious paired with the other dishes. Avocado toast was chef's kiss! The burrito bowl was surprisingly a highlight! Flavors were all there and you wouldnt bat an eye if someone said it was finely ground meat. All things to say, it's a great option for healthier meals! Side note, they were giving samples out of their health shots and cold pressed juices that they recently began making in-house. Dont forget to grab a bottle while they last! They were so delicious and I can't wait for more!

I said something about the burger not coming with the potatoes & mushrooms and was told they had the wrong menu out and the burger no longer came with potatoes. Pretty ridiculous to let someone order and pay based on a menu, then tell them afterward that it's not actually what they're getting. Mistakes happen, but between the poor food quality, incorrect menu, and lack of effort to make the situation right, I definitely won't be back.

There are also lots of fun drink options that rotate with the season. As a major matcha lover who makes their own matcha lattes every morning, I find the matchas to be disappointing.

This morning I got the blueberry matcha and had to add another shot of matcha to it at home along with sweetener because it just tasted like watery tea. I find it strange that you have to order at two different cashiers for food and beverage. I wish there was more interior space, as the weather is not always good enough to sit outdoors. The outdoor space is very nice though when it's warm enough.

A delicious breakfast for around $12. The man behind the counter was fast and friendly. He didn't rush the line but also brought your order out to the waiting area when it was ready. They do have 2 small tables in the office lobby but that's just for waiting for your order or maybe scarfing down a sandwich very quickly. They also have a very small section of things you might find in a convenience store (painkillers, candy, granola bars, etc). Don't be deterred by the big office space when you pull up. Highly recommend for something tasty on the go!
