Best vegan sandwiches I've had in a while

The other week, my partner and I went to a memorial service for his stepdad. He surprised me afterwards by taking me here, because it was around the corner from the church. I couldn't decide between the reuben and the club sandwich, so I splurged and got both. It's too expensive (for me) to eat there regularly, but if money wasn't an issue, I totally would go out of my way to eat there at least once a week.

If you're vegan, you know restaurants can be hit-or-miss when it comes to quality, variety, portion sizes, and knowledgeable staff. I'm never pessimistic about it, but I'm always skeptical to try a new place, especially if it's expensive. This one impressed me, and that's not an easy or common thing.

The bread was good quality, toasted, and easy to chew, with a good texture. They were full-sized sandwiches, and it didn't feel like they were skimping at all. Like, sometimes places charge a lot for tiny portions that are just okay in terms of flavor. This place doesn't do that.

The "meat" in the reuben was excellent. Melty "cheese" and a good helping of sauerkraut. I also got the club sandwich, which had crispy "bacon" and fresh avocado, along with fresh veggies and good, toasted bread. I saved part of each for the next day, and the club was a bit soggy, but the reuben held up wonderfully. I'm a sucker for cold, next-day leftovers; if I get a pizza that's good fresh but not good cold the next morning, I probably won't get it again. So this place ticks a lot of my boxes. And the club ingredients were still good, apart from the bread, so I just scraped them into a wrap, no problem.

Bottom line: if you're in the area, especially if you've been disappointed by other places, you have to try The Walrus. I'll definitely be coming back anytime I'm in Five Points.

Pros: Unique vegan options and generous portions, Beautiful aesthetic, Fast pickup when ordering online

Cons: Kind of expensive

Good sandwiches and juices/smoothies

I like the vibes here and I definitely felt good about supporting a vegan business like this one. The owner was there and she was very friendly. I had a sandwich with sauerkraut it was delicious!

I can’t stop coming to this street.

I'm probably will be a local store resident soon because I visit to much.

Such a fun place!

The food, amazing! The staff, amazing! The drinks, amazing! This funky bar was a great spot to take my friends. I’m vegan, one is vegetarian, the other omnivore. Two of us drink, one is sober. All of us enjoyed the food SO much and I was so grateful for a cool bar that had a huge variety of non-alcoholic drinks! They have a lot of fun events lined up on their calendar as well, I can’t wait to go again!
