Hard Times Cafe - Minneapolis

Great food, grungy atmosphere. Love that they have baked vegan goods. I usually have to add a bit more seasoning to my food, but there are so many options and it is so reasonably priced for the portions that you get.

Hard times has been around for ages. While not fully vegan it does have an extensive vegan menu. Grungy vibe. I haven’t been since COVID but they used to be cash only.

Loved the food as well as the atmosphere! Also very friendly staff. The menu has also vegetarian items but it’s very easy to swap many of them for vegan versions. Updated from previous review on 2023-08-16

I've dined here twice and need to more often! Prices are super low and there's a lot to choose from. The biscuits and gravy were great, hash browns were a little soft for my liking but OK. Our friends who got the breakfast burrito liked those too. The tofu scramble I had was under seasoned. Updated from previous review on 2023-08-14

The vegan menu 'looks ' nice and the prices aren 't bad. However, my breakfast burrito meal was more than half chips, which felt like filler. House made salsa was excellent.
