It is wonderful to go to a place where I as a vegetarian can eat everything on the menu without asking any question about stock, lard etc. Hogtown vegan provides vegan comfort food, southern style. If that feels like a contradiction, that's part of their charm.
Went with my ten year old son when we were by ourselves. The portion sizes are huge. We ordered their poutine and one if their combos that included sweet potatoes, waffles and collard greens. Everything was quite tasty, maybe a bit on the mild side. The hot sauce did add flavour. Others around us seemed to order the Mac and "cheese" as well as some rather monumental sized burgers.
They use Daiya cheese which I believe is made from Soy. While the taste is different, it's quite good and the texture is perfect.
Don't go there expecting normal comfort food. This
