According to a catchphrase adopted by Spiral Diner & Bakery's early devotees: Vegans get plenty. It's a motto that jabs at vegetarian stereotypes (granola, slightly nerdy) while winking at the pleasure potential of a plant-based diet. We can't vouch for the latter, but there's no denying Spiral's vegan cooking brings a fresh twist to down-home diner fare. And yes, that's vegan, as in "no animal products," owner Sara Tomerlin confirms. "No milk, eggs, cheese or even honey."

I LOVE THIS PLACE. When I sat down to look at the menu here, I didn't know what to do. I wasn't used to having so much to choose from!

My daughter and I went last week for lunch. She's vegetarian and I raise cattle and definitely love meat. The menu was amazing. She had the wrap with hummus, roasted sweet potatoes, spinach, and other veggies and it was delicious. I had the "traditional" burger (patty was made of brown rice, nuts and ground veggies). If it had been a blind tasting test, I would have never believed I wasn't eating something beefy and with real life mayo and fixings! The place was very busy and most all were men--overalls, suits, etc. Location is very easy to get to and we will be regulars!

Don't go on your hour lunch break! Maybe it was growing pains but the service was painsakingly slow. However, the food really was very good. the potato salad was incredible and though the service was slow, our quirky waiter was hilarious and nice.
My carnivore/chef husband enjoyed the hummus wrap. I will go back....
