    Cheeseburger Wrap
    Zack G.

    Counter service vegan place with a large drink menu and a large (but basic) food menu comprised of salads, rice bowls, wraps, and sandwiches. They don't try to imitate meat as much as they stick to dishes that are naturally vegan That being said, I did try one of their meat-substitute dishes, a cheeseburger wrap, and it was pretty tasty. The wrap itself was kind of stale though Also have a bunch of vegan desserts 7.5

    I am always so happy when I get to come here! I live a little far away, so this is usually a stop on my way home from New Haven when I go. I barely made it there before closing this time, and I was afraid they were going to be like a lot of places and tell me it was too late to order certain things, but they made the smoothie bowl for me with a smile on their faces, and I could not have been more grateful! I also buy goodies every time I go there like shots and bliss balls And peanut butter pie. This place is an oasis!

    I like this place because of healthy food options. The ambiance is good. I called to order take out on my way to NY, and it was ready when I got there. First thing that happened was that I called and tried to order Thai Tangle but turns out that isn't on the menu anymore & they don't have a website available with a new menu or anything updated on yelp. I asked for another kind of spicy noodle but they couldn't help. I ordered the southwest wrap and I was so upset with what I had gotten (see photo) there was an inch of substance in the wrap besides rice. A $15 wrap filled with fifty cents worth of rice with a slight layer of sauce and just a few beans. How's a vegan supposed to survive. . .? Not sure what I would ever order from here again.

    Let me be the first to say before they change their name from Pure to Wild I was, and still am, a huge fan. The food, the atmosphere, the scent you are introduced to when you walk into the building. It's amazing. I come to this place quite often and since they moved the place is bigger. The parking is better. The reason why I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 like it deserves is because on this particular situation I walked in encountering three workers and not a single one said hi or even acknowledges that I walked in the building. It was me and another person in the cafe so it wasn't a busy issue. I noticed one girl that I see often who was in the kitchen that ended up acknowledging me and helping me when I told her no one had acknowledged me. When I'm there I normally like to interact with Linda, a worker that I encountered when I first was introduced to the place that made me want to come back more because she is so awesome and nice. I really love this place. I frequent it often. Sometimes I have to take a step back because I can literally spend an entire paycheck at this place because it's just so good. But I do feel like acknowledging people that are coming into any establishment to spend money is very important, even if you don't want to.

    This is a vegetarian/vegan friendly cafe in Wallingford. The food and smoothies are decent but the place is too expensive for what they offer.

    Chewbacca Bowl

    I'm working my way through trying all of the juices and smoothies. I have tried Apple Jack, Berry Berry Bliss, Kale Me Crazy, The Nutty Monkey and Emerald Forest. I haven't found one I don't like. I also really enjoyed the Chewbacca Bowl.

    Southwestern Wrap
    Nakia H.

    Absolutely worth the 30 min drive. I'm in town on business and staying near Yale campus yet found this gem on Yelp. Everything is made fresh and organic!! They have descriptions of ingredients and the advantages of them posted at the counter and on various tables. For those that are new to the 'clean' eating lifestyle. From drinks, smoothies, wraps and desserts, it's ALL delicious! I will definitely add this place to the list of recurring visits whenever I'm in the area.

    Wild Alchemy is a true one stop shop for eats! Vegan or not, this establishment has so many unique options, you're bound to find something delicious and hearty to satisfy your hunger! Their Falafel Wraps for one, are also out of this world! Salads are filling and delicious, they have a nice selection of snacks and a monthly feature & their smoothie and juice selection is large! They also have a few tables outside to enjoy al fresco dining, have CBD products and other supplements for sale, juice shots, and house made to go nutrient waters in their fridge in addition to other interesting brands. This is honestly the first place I've been too where I loved something from each category (food, smoothie, juice & dessert) Must tries in my opinion: Wraps: Falafel Salad: Zen Dessert: Key Lime Pie my friend devoured (June 2021 Special) and almond joy or butterfinger bar Smoothie: Creamsicle (Superfood selection) & Berry Berry Bliss Juice: Tiny Dancer & Moxie Lady (I get light on the ginger)

    The Bagel
    Liz F.

    Stopped in to Wild Alchemy today and lunch was great! Lots of dairy free, vegetarian and gluten free items to pick from The bagel - house made onion bread with cashew cream cheese topped with tomato and avocado Cheeseburger wrap-romaine, pickles, raw veggie nut burger, tomato, cashew cheesy sauce served with blue chips Creamsicle smoothie - orange, banana, vanilla, coconut milk, maple and baobab

    Southwestern Wrap
    Melissa R.

    Stopped here for lunch and it was great! I had the southwestern wrap with a creamsicle smoothie! The wrap was so delicious and very filling! I'll definitely be back to try more things off the menu! Their desserts looked delicious too! I only took one star off because it's pretty pricey.

    Cheeseburger Wrap
    Stefanie L.

    I used to love the old location but am super sad to say my experience here at the new one frankly sucked. I came with a friend and ordered the cheeseburger wrap, which is my favorite and my friend got the chickpea wrap. After being forgotten for well over 15 minutes and watching every person that came in after us be served their food before us, someone finally acknowledged my friend and I and offered us water and apologized for the wait. I was a bit perplexed when they brought over one cup of water for the 2 of us. After another 5 minutes, our food finally came out. My cheeseburger wrap was literally 80% pickles, which I hate. They were chopped up so small that they were really hard to pick out. It's my fault for not asking for no pickles, but also like, the wrap was mostly pickles which I do not remember from when I've ordered this before at the old location. Once I removed al of the pickles the wrap was decent but there was so little "cheeseburger" in the wrap that it was really sad to eat. My friend couldn't even eat his chickpea wrap because it was under seasoned and had an unpleasant texture. Overall was really disappointed with this whole experience and felt like it was a waste of my money. I will likely not be returning.

    The Green Skinny Juice and The Revolutionist Smoothie
    Casey G.

    Went to check out Wild Alchemy the other day and it was great! The staff was working very hard to accommodate all of the customers and everyone was very sweet tried one of their juices, smoothie, and their toast with almond butter and it was all delicious! I'll definitely be coming back again soon!

    Superfood Bliss Balls

    Healthy & delicious food! Excellent staff...very friendly & knowledgeable about offerings. Went to the one in Avon. High quality food, including locally made superfood chocolates. So far, I had a very fresh & tasty green juice, but brought home lots of other goodies that I can't wait to try. I live 30 mins away, but will make trips out there just for them as it was so worth it! So happy to have a vegan place somewhat nearby with incredible & healthy options. Even non-vegans will love this place! Update: The Chaga pie was amazing as are the Superfood Bliss Balls.

    It has taken me way too long to write this review, but I only recently started reviewing some of…read morethe places I've loved over the years, and The Eatery absolutely deserves one. When I lived in Wallingford for about three years, The Eatery became one of my places. I would stop in for breakfast before work, or someone from my team would make the breakfast run. At least once a month, we had to have an Eatery morning. We ordered lunch from here too, so over time this little place became part of our routine. When I eventually left Wallingford, my team actually bought me my last breakfast sandwich from The Eatery before I left. It sounds like such a small thing, but it was honestly bittersweet because they knew how much I loved this place. And years later? It's still just as good. One of the biggest reasons The Eatery has always stood out to me is the customer service. Everyone I've encountered has been sweet, polite and welcoming, but I especially have to mention Sam. Over the years, she became one of those people who made you feel like more than just another customer. She genuinely got to know her regulars. There were times I'd place my order online and it felt like she already knew I was coming. I'd walk through the door and she'd have everything ready. She has always been incredibly kind, caring and attentive, not only with me, but with the customers around her as well. That kind of customer service is something you remember. My son has been eating their food since he was around one year old, and he STILL loves it. Now whenever we're back in Connecticut for his appointments, my mom will ask, "Can we please stop at The Eatery?". Sometimes we're able to make it and sometimes we're not, but this past Friday we finally did. I ordered my favorite kind of breakfast: a bacon, egg & cheese on a pretzel roll. SO GOOD. The pretzel roll with the warm egg, bacon and melted cheese is such a perfect combination. My mom ordered her bacon, egg & cheese on ciabatta, and my son had one as well. Although apparently his wasn't enough, because he ended up stealing mine. Apparently Mom's food always tastes better. I also tried what I believe was their watermelon mint refresher/tea, which was refreshing and perfect with breakfast, while my mom had a caramel coffee that she absolutely loved. And please don't think they're only a breakfast spot. Their lunch is just as good. I used to order their salads all the time during work, and they were always incredibly fresh. In fact, my coworkers were notorious for wanting some of my salad because they knew where it came from. Everything always tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared rather than like something that had been sitting around. Another thing I love is seeing how much this place has grown. I remember what it was like when I first discovered it, and coming back years later and seeing what they've created is wonderful. They've added so much personality while somehow keeping the same warm feeling and the same wonderful people. The atmosphere is adorable. It's bright, clean, modern and welcoming, with tons of beautiful greenery, hanging plants, warm wood tones, woven light fixtures and fun pops of color. The big "Hello Wallingford!" mural is such a cute touch. There are little details everywhere, but it doesn't feel overdone, it has that relaxed neighborhood café feeling where you can grab your food and go or just enjoy being there. I also love how they change things up for the seasons and different occasions. They always seem to have something fun going on, especially around fall and the holidays, and I believe they offer catering as well. Funny enough, before I discovered The Eatery, I had driven past it so many times without realizing what I was missing. Once I finally stopped in, it became somewhere I went for years. If you live in Wallingford, you need to try this place. And honestly, even if you're coming from North Haven, New Haven or elsewhere in the area, make the drive. It's worth it. I may not live in Connecticut anymore, but whenever we're back in the area, The Eatery is still one of those places my family wants to stop. The food is delicious, the ingredients taste fresh, the atmosphere is beautiful, and most importantly the people have remained just as kind and welcoming as I remember them. Some restaurants are simply places you eat. The Eatery became part of my memories of living in Wallingford, and that's probably the best compliment I can give them. Keep telling them they need a second location in another state! Everyone deserves to try how amazing they are

    1 Star -- Abysmal service. Completely ruined a Bachelorette celebration…read more We chose this venue for a 6-person Bachelorette party, expecting a memorable night. Instead, the catastrophic service completely deflated the celebratory mood. * The Delays: It took over an hour just to get our first round of drinks. Our food arrived an agonizing hour and a half after ordering.Zero Accountability: The floor had only four occupied tables, meaning staff was not overwhelmed. Yet, no manager was present to address the failure.Empty Promises: When we questioned the delay, staff repeatedly placated us by saying the food would be out "soon." In reality, "soon" meant another 20-minute wait.The sheer lack of urgency and professional management was shocking. Do not risk your special occasions, milestones, or hard-earned money at this establishment. We even had a reservation! Do better
