Serves meat, vegan options available. Several locations in California. Please note, as of Dec 2020, the only item on their extensive menu with the word 'vegan' in it is the 'hungry planet burger' - 'vegan cheese' which does not mean the whole meal is vegan, so please inquire. Has many vegetarian choices, including sandwiches, salads, pasta and smoothies, some of which could possibly be made vegan by using Vegenaise & other substitutes. The veggie soup of the day is sometimes vegan. Open Mon-Sun 11:00am-8:30pm.

Modernized Fast Food - Edit
At first glance this seemed like a casual and convenient dinner option for us. The extra large Buddha statue when you open the door felt like a good sign to us.
Read moreThe more invested we got into ordering from The Natural Cafe, the more clear it came to be that this cafe was simply just modernized fast food.
As there were not many already vegan entrees on the menu, there were plenty of options that could be easily made vegan with the removal of the cheese. We ordered two different veggie bowls and were not overly impressed with either. The Veggie Tofu bowl that I had ordered contained a whopping three pieces of Cauliflower. I just felt like I was eating a bowl of spinach with a few vegetables piled on top of it.
If you’re in a hurry and just need a quick bite, this would be a good place for you to try.
Pros: Decor was nice , Tofu was cooked well , Vegetables did taste fresh
Cons: Not many already vegan options , Dirty/sticky tables , Fast food

Yummy Vegan Options - Edit
This is a place I like to go with my parents who are omnis. They have several vegan options and they can veganize many of their salads and sandwiches. I would recommend their Portabella mushroom sandwich on fresh homemade bread with vegan cheese and veganaise. It came with a side of chips and salsa. Very very good. The outdoor seating is very peaceful making it a great experience.
