I love this place! It is the perfect lunch spot. I always try to visit when I'm up in Wallingford. I've had their bacon avocado wrap and their cheeseburger wrap. Both are insanely delicious! The bacon avo wrap had cashew pesto cream cheese, vegan pepper jack cheese, spinach, tomato, avocado, fermented veggies, and coconut bacon! It was so creamy and fresh! The cheeseburger wrap contains romaine, pickles, a raw veggie nut burger, tomato, and cashew cheese sauce. It was INCREDIBLE! It's served cold--which I also enjoyed-- and it's vinegary from the pickles but creamy from the cashew cheese sauce. It was so awesome. I can't wait to come back and try something new!

The place has potential, and food is good (not great - smoothies are on the sweet side), but it’s a slow for take-out, extremely pricey (an açaí bowl for $15??), and too loud inside with too much foot traffic in front of the tables to just sit and relax. There are similar places in North Haven (and of course New Haven) that are worth the trip if you plan to spend a few hours working.

Great spot to eat, food is healthy and delicious! The desserts are amazing, no processed sugars or any junk. Disappointed to see negative reviews for masks, u people need more chaga in ur life.

I wanted to take a moment to respond to the owners comments. As I said in my original review, the staff told me they do not require masks and as stated by other commenters, the staff do not wear masks. The owner claimed staff always wear masks. As you can see, other people have commented that staff do not wear masks. On Google, the owner said four employees have "medical conditions" and cannot wear masks. Scientists and medical professionals say it is very rare - if not impossible - for a simple cloth covering to inhibit breathing. When I was there, staff told me they do not require masks.

Please be careful and AVOID this place. None of the workers wear masks. They say they don't believe in the virus. Seriously. So ignorant and profoundly, dangerously selfish.

I used to really love the food and service here so I thought the price was worth it. Not anymore! Unfortunately the food and service has gone way downhill. I ordered the mexican wrap. $12 plus tax. It was tiny and awful. I tried a bite and was sure I got the wrong thing so I went inside to check - it was that bad. It was literally just brown rice and olives - no trace of black beans or avocado or salsa. Mexican wrap??? hmmm.... They assured me that what I had was right. The whole experience from start to finish was off. They didn't offer a refund so I just left with my olive rice wrap. As a side note, there were three workers there - none of which were wearing masks - not the two people preparing food or the person at the counter. Will not be going back.

I love this place! I usually stop by after hiking Sleeping Giant. The cheeseburger wrap is my favorite thing to get. It's so delicious and the texture makes me happy. Does it actually taste like a cheeseburger? No. But it's so good! They also have delicious juice. My favorite is the green juice with ginger. Highly recommend this place for vegans and/or anyone else who wants healthy and tasty food.

Great little place. Food was delicious, but a little pricey. Definately will go back though.

Saddened to see no employees wearing masks and not respecting and acknowledging the safety of customers or even each other. This restaurant deals with RAW food meaning any germs or particles that leave the workers’ mouths are landing on the food and remaining there. How can the owner even claim this is a “conscious” cafe? Conscious about robbing us for a $12 smoothie? Got that right at least.

I am so disappointed. I used to love this place but not one employee was wearing a mask. I won’t be back.

After reading all the great reviews, I was very keen to try out this place. Well, after walking inside, saw none of the staff/cook had a mask. Very disappointing.
