Planthropie is incredible! In addition to their food being gluten, dairy, soy, and refined sugar free, it is vegan, organic, and raw. More importantly, it is the best tasting dessert and cheese I have ever had. I am not vegan, but Planthropie's desserts are better than the "real" thing. This place is wonderful for foodies, people who have food sensitivities, or anyone who cares about the quality of their food. Additionally, Rua's cake design is absolutely breathtaking. Take a look below at the gorgeous cake she made for me, and also some shots of cheeses are other desserts. Their design aesthetic both in the space and the food is beautiful. The whole business is run with such great care and they have become my favorite dessert place!

Fully vegan

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Vegan café with desserts and cheese! They use cashew and dates to naturally sweeten everything. You could really taste the date flavor in the tiramisu cake but it was more subtle in the snickers/ almond chocolate one. Despite everything looking nice I didn’t like it enough to return. Side note: bathroom was clean and decorated in a cute “let me take a selfie” manner.

Walked in here after having brunch at TOAST, because it looked like a cute little pastry shop. While an employee helped explain to us what everything was, we realized it was a healthy/plant/vegan type of pastry shop but the girls were so helpful and cute we decided to try it and were surprisingly blown away. Nothing tasted like it was sugar free (they use dates/honey/etc as sweetners). The brownie truffles were my favorite! Melt in your mouth! The cheesecake was also very delicious, the crust had greattt flavor. Coffee was good, tasted like chocolate milk. If you’re sensitive to gluten or are vegan, or NONE—this is a really cute pastry shop worth entering. TRY THE BROWNIE TRUFFLES—they’re hard to walk away from!
