Kerbey Lane Cafe

Published on by theaustinveganLeave a comment

I’m sure y’all remember me saying that I am an Austinite. I mean native. I mean born at St. David’s Hospital on 32nd street…native. So, I remember even in as a teenager going to eat at Kerbey Lane. Kereby Lane has been around for a while.  Thirty-eight years to be exact! It reminds me of a Ma and Pa cafe with tatted waitstaff. I get all comfy and cozy when I arrive at Kerbey (yea, we’re on a first name basis). Kerbey Lane doesn’t label itself as a Vegan restaurant. However, I like that they have a Vegan menu. Also, I appreciate that I can order just about anything off the regular menu and have it made Vegan. The waitstaff is very comfortable in making the adjustments. My favorite thing to order is the “Vegan breakfast platter”.  ( In this picture I substituted the patties for Soyrizo).

This platter comes with Tofu scramble, two Vegan Sausage patties and two Pancakes. You have the option of choosing plain Pancakes or the Pancake of the week that they make a Vegan version of. This is A LOT of food. Most of the time I have leftovers. There are other things on the menu that I enjoy ordering such as : customizing a breakfast taco. Anything with avocado is magical. Their Vegan Queso is AMAZING! Also, you can order Hummus and Pita, the Red Quinoa Salad w/o the Fresco and the  Good Seed Veggie burger. Kerbey Lane is very affordable. It has 8 locations throughout the Austin area. I LOVE how Kerbey Lane gives us non-meat eaters options. And not just options but GOOD options! So, if you happen to be in the Austin area and need a great laid back place to eat or haven’t given it a try yet. Please do, you won’t regret it!

 

P.S.- It’s pet friendly. Your Fur baby can eat with you on the outdoor patio!
