    Really good little vegan restaurant in a super cute town! The restaurant is small with only 3 tables and some stools inside. There are more tables outside with a good amount of seating. They serve breakfast, burgers, salads, wraps, smoothies, desserts, and more! We had a wrap, burger, hot dog and smoothie and enjoyed everything! The best was the Rocket Fuel protein smoothie. My only suggestion for improvement is to have more topping included for the hotdog which would make it really awesome. But overall I really enjoyed it here and will go back :)

    100% vegan with many gluten free options. Lots of baked goods on display. Yummy smoothies, but no smoothie bowls on the menu. Love the outdoor tables with umbrellas. Lots of options with homemade food, and a number of processed options too (impossible burger, cheeses, etc.) Both times here the staff answered questions on the menu and were accommodating and kind. And both experiences were yummy! Took food to eat at Riverside Coffee since there was no decaf here :) RESPONSE TO REPLY: Super sweet of you all to think about adding decaf, but totally not worth it if you don't have the demand. It won't stop me from coming, and I like supporting two local spots plus the bonus of river side seating!

    Great vegan cafe tucked away in downtown Clinton right by the river. Excellent selection of smoothies, drinks and cafe fare. Highly recommend!

    My partner and I stopped in for a bite this past weekend and, sorry to say, we were disappointed. You get very little food for the price and the quality wasn't there. He got the Fakin' Egg & Chez, I got the Bacon Burger and we each got a bottle of pomegranate soda. It was $35. There were no chips, pickles or anything served with our sandwiches and the sandwiches themselves were not generous in size. We were dining on the patio and they came out and handed us a to-go bag of our food, so we had to eat on the wrapping paper. We weren't offered plates or utensils. The one thing I asked for on my sandwich, vegan mayo, was missing, so I had to go back in and get it. Sadly, the food did not seem to be made with love. The fakin' bacon on both of our sandwiches was soggy, not carmelized. The lettuce on my burger was wilted and brown (in the photos it appears green and soaked with oil, but it was actually spoiled in some spots) and the bun was stale. My husband's sandwich, which was served on a standard-sized bagel, was barely warm and he wasn't impressed with the flavor. We don't mind overpaying a little bit for things if the quality is good. But we're sorry to say this mediocre food did not do a plant-based diet justice and we felt ripped off. The worst part of our whole experience at Grounded for Life Cafe in Clinton NJ was having to walk back to our car to drop off our glass bottles so we could take them home to be recycled. This vegan cafe does not recycle, but the woman behind the counter offered to throw the bottles in the trash for us. We declined and left feeling very disappointed.

    Hands down the best vegan food I've ever had. The owner was super nice and gave myself and my bf a sample of the chocolate chip brownie (I cant have more then 9g of sugar) and it wasn't too sweet nor did it bother my stomach. The cheese and egg sandwich with the vegan bacon is absolutely amazing. I'm upset I don't live closer but I'm you ate in the area definitely worth a visit! Thank you to the owner for being so kind!

    SO YUMMY!!!! Oh my goodness. So glad to have an all vegan place here. Moving to the area for a job and this is right down the road and I feel lucky and blessed to have HEALTHY options that are absolutely delicious. And the fact that they have pastries from Vegan Treats is even better! I ordered the wrap with oats, lentils and brown rice, hemp seeds and chia seeds. I could eat it everyday! Half of the wrap filled me up too which was a plus. Thank you thank you thank you!!!

    My mom and I stopped in for vegan hot chocolates and they were delicious! We also got takeout for dinner. Our server was super friendly. He made us feel right at home. Highly recommend!
