| - I have been here in the past for studying and it is okay for that purpose. It is not one of my favorites, but completely adequate.
More recently, I went here with a friend because we realized they had breakfast options for vegans apart from oatmeal. She chose to get the tofu scramble, her husband got PB&J with bananas, and because I am not vegan, I chose to get the omelet with cheese and veggies.
Our food took forever. I wouldn't go here if you're really hungry and not vegan. I realize the limitations of the space and staff, but it seemed to take an eternity for our names to be called.
The staff was friendly, no snobbishness experienced on my visit.
The coffee was a bit bitter. I'm no coffee connoisseur and I desperately needed the caffeine, so I finished mine with only a mild bellyache, but my friend couldn't even finish hers. Perhaps because they had no soy milk to put in her beverage like she is used to doing. Her husband had a vanilla mint iced tea that was incredibly tasty.
The food:
- I don't like my eggs dried out, but I know of people who can't stand the slightest bit of moisture in their eggs. The inside of my omelet was slightly too wet, not enough for me to send back, but another person probably would have.
- The tofu scramble had turmeric for color and nothing for taste. My friend had to load it up with salt and pepper to make it palatable.
- PBJ & bananas - no complaints.
I applaud Three Roots for trying. There were no other breakfast options in the valley for a vegan. But I really wish they improved the quality of their options.
