Love this place. Many great meals and terrific service over the past couple of years.
I have always found vegetarian and vegan food in particular highly suspect. Had I known this was a vegan restaurant, I probably wouldn't have tried it, but it was nearly 9 at night early in the week and almost nothing was open. The lights were on, so we wandered in. Once we saw the menu, we considered bolting for the door, but the staff was super welcoming and things smelled good, so we gave it a try. Lo and behold, this has become one of our quirky Eugene favorites.
I've tried most things on the menu and everything has been really good. The moody portabella and the chicken-fried tempeh are my favorites, the bloke likes the eugenewich. Does it taste like the "meat" version would? Absolutely not, but it is delicious down-home southern food. Get a side of greens, maybe two, they're awesome.
This is a necessary stop I build into trips when I head south... I love the biscuits and gravy and the eggfu most of all, I think. It's hard to find a vegan breakfast gravy that's salty and "meaty" (most are mushroom or inexplicably white and bland), but Cornbread figured it out! Hands down my favorite breakfast place...too bad it's 2 hours away!
Great vegan food and service. So glad we made the drive, totally worth it. Perks* I didn’t have to wait an hour in line for voodoo vegan donuts ��
Probably the best vegan breakfast anywhere in town, plus they have amazing desserts made by the most wonderful vegan baker in the Pacific Northwest. Highly recommend!!
I wish Cornbread Cafe was In Corvallis
(;Wink, Wink;) ( 2nd opening?)
Seriously though, It's totally worth the 50 min Drive for this Amazing food.
We moved here from Norcal and there are a ton of vegan places in the bay area, Berkeley and further north. But I have to say -
Cornbread Cafe is My FAVORITE eatery, everything I've tried has been delicious, the staff are friendly and even on busy days it's totally worth the wait.
My hubby and 2 teenage boys are quite fond of the burgers, where my ultimate fave is the Fried Tempeh, with mashed potatoes and gravy. Oh and The desserts ... the BOMB!
And Explosion of Yummyness in my mouth, Yes Please !!
had the awesome chili and cornbread . best ever. will be back. thank you for the delicious food and the gentle waiter�
The food is spectacular. In my short visit to Oregon this summer, we decided this was a place to eat at again. It's a simple premise but so worth it.
The best vegan food I've ever had hands down! I would highly recommend the "hot things"!
Driving to Salem from Medford and stopped here for lunch. I had the chicken-fried tempeh with gravy. Best decision I made all day. Everything is vegan and there are a TON of gluten free options available too. Staff was friendly and attentive.
I’d eat here for every meal, every day if I could. Everytime I pass through Eugene I eat here now. Their vegan friend chik’n & waffles are amazing. Yesterday, I had their loaded biscuits and gravy, and they were wonderful, too.
Cornbread Cafe is one of my favorite restaurants in Eugene! Stellar food, and it's all vegan! And I've had wonderful service every time I've been in (which is alot)
Stopped in for the first time for a quick bite -had soup of the day w/the cornbread; & got a sandwich to go. All was very fresh, tasty and didn't miss the meat at all! And staff was very kind and professional. I'll be back for sure.
We make a point to stop at Cornbread Cafe anytime we drive through Eugene, and sometimes make the special two hour round trip drive for no reason other than a craving for their seitan and waffles. Always warm and hospitable service. A wonderful, welcoming Cafe.
As a vegan, I sometimes crave good ole fashioned comfort food and Cornbread meals hit the spot! The staff is awesome and the cafe is cozy. The desserts are also top notch and the owner is one of the sweetest people I’ve met! Try Cornbread, whether you’re a vegan or not, you will be glad you did!
Thanks so to Sharee and the wonderful staff at Cornbread Cafe for getting the band fueled up before our show! Food is great! Especially enjoyed the buffalo style tofu! Vegan or not, check this place out.
Absolutely love their food! It’s delicious and wonderful to be able to find such great tasting vegan meals.
