Treehugger's Cafe is absolutely one of my favorite restaurants in the Cleveland area right now. The Cafe is small but cozy and comfortable especially if you can get the one booth or the table in front of the fireplace. The staff is always extremely helpful and friendly.
The food is so good! It's always amazingly fresh and prepared with care. My favorites are the black bean burger, the black bean chimichanga, the oat burger, the bean salad (notice a theme here??), and, of course, the sweet potato fries! I haven't had a single item from this restaurant that I have not enjoyed. I had a pasta salad one time that I wouldn't list as a favorite but even that was good.
One of my favorite things about Treehugger's is that there are so many options for vegetarian and vegan diners. I can order something and simply say "please prepare that vegan" and they immediately understand what I need/want. I don't have to try to explain what vegan means or go through a list of what I don't want to be in my food. I so appreciate that after dining in other restaurants!! Many items can also be prepared gluten free if you have that restriction in your diet.
Don't fret omnivores! If you want meat/fish/eggs, you can get it! There are chicken items that are always on the menu and several times I have been in to find salmon or tuna in the specials. My omni family and friends tell me these dishes are very good!
The prices are good when you consider the freshness and the quality of the foods. Treehugger's supports local businesses and uses organic foods whenever possible. If you want a chemical-laden frozen burger patty and fries for $5.95 go to Denny's and leave room for me at this little gem!
Oh, and get a vegan everything cookie to take home....yum!!!
