when my partner has a hankering for comfort food, this is where he likes to come. because he's a vegan with celiac disease, he has to be careful, so it's great to go to a restaurant that he can rely on to take care of him. even better, the food is great. the chili cheese fries are cheesy, hearty and generous. the vegan grilled cheese is as satisfying as a traditional one, and their cashew gravy is smooth and rich. on other visits, we've been pleased with the burgers and pastas. it's comfort food that includes everyone.

"the lovely" not so lovely. my partner and i came here after some vegetarian friends mentioned it. we ordered the lovely and 'ish and chips. the former, i believe, suffers a similar problem that plagues a lot of vegetarian rice bowls - it was simply too soggy. the dishes here all boast quite an impressive list of ingredients, at least linguistically. the lovely contains almond satay sauce, carrot, kale, tofu, roasted peppers, and coconut bacon. the abundance of sauce, however, drenched the dish into a gooey mush, and not the good kind (ie. curry). we experienced a similar downside to vegetarian rice bowls in montreal, where vegetarian restaurants abound. as a chinese person with a particular perspective and preference on rice, i find that, out of a desire to induce palatability and flavor, vegetarian rice bowls overcompensate by using an excessive amount of sauce, which, while acceptable for pasta, fares less ideally for rice. the other dish, 'ish and chips, was basically a battered tofu stick with fries. i actually enjoyed it somewhat, if not just for the novelty. i personally can't get enough of tofu, but ultimately this dish lacked flavor, which could not be remedied by the tar tar sauce. we most likely would not be going back.

the first time me and my very non-vegetarian friends ended up at meet was purely accidental. we were out to celebrate a friend’s birthday who didn’t make a reservation. the wait at the restaurant we picked was over an hour long, so we decided to scratch that plan and go somewhere else.

we stumbled upon this little neat looking place, packed with people, and decided to go in. we were greeted by super nice staff and seated promptly. within minutes we had super tasty boozy drinks in our hands, and the first (good) impression of this place was set.

as we looked through the menu, we quickly realized something was a bit odd. did they misspell chicken? why is it called chiggin? what’s a bbq thing? not so quickly we realized that this was a vegetarian only place.

we had let our server know that we were not prepared well, and didn’t know what to expect from the food but we were keen to try it.

that’s when server number two came to say hi to us, and offered us free samples of their most popular items. we were so greatly impressed by everything from the décor, service to food we decided to come back a few more times.

i’m a huge fan of this place. if i could eat there every day, i would be a devout vegetarian. for now, i will just have my bbq chiggin things at the meet whenever possible.

this place is one of my meatless monday mainstays. why, you ask, do i keep coming back? it's the food. i've never had any items on the menu that i didn't like. from the hot chiggin things to their burgers, and their salads. even the so-called bacon in my burger tasted like smoky, crispy bacon. their burgers and fries are some of the best out there period - as good as any beef burger as far as i'm concerned. plus, the burgers come with addictive fries and garden salad with super fresh mint vinaigrette. definitely one of my favorite vegetarian restaurants.

but, it seems as though the wait for the food is getting longer and longer each time. even service is touch and go recently. service used to be very attentive.

c'mon man! pick it up, don't let success get to your head. i don't want to downgrade my rating on the next visit.

the world needs more vegan establishments, and meet on main is filling in that void. whoop whoop. veganism is the future…the caring and sustainable future.

loved this place! all vegan - but would please a meat eater. menu has everything you could want and the burgers come with fries and salad. service was great within a busy but workable space. definitely worth a stop in 🙂

*meet in yaletown* 

such a spacious and pleasant space to eat your lunch. their menu contains fractions, which i thought was very interesting. it's amazing vegan food- great for catch ups etc. i ordered "the lovely", which had vegetarian bacon in it- a different taste, but still nice all the while. i really enjoyed whatever sauce they used in their dish as well. the only problem i'd have with this place is that the portion size is a little small. otherwise, vegan or not, definitely try this place out!

this is definitely comparable to meet in gastown. they both offer the same things on their menus, but i do think that the overall ambiance of the meet in gastown is better as i felt that the meet on main was a bit too crowded. but overall, the taste and quality were the same.

it's canada day (and also my birthday) so my friends are celebrating with me...with food of course. we were here at 6pm and quickly got a small table for 3 people. my 2 friends ordered the brown rice bowls while i got the meet burger (all burgers come with both fries and salad). my friend's kimchi bowl kind of reminded me of the korean rice dish bibimbap. my veggie burger came with kaiser roll however i found they were a bit dry so i decided to eat the patty and toppings only. meh it's a veggie patty so i wouldn't expect too much. if i do come back again i'll probably order their rice bowl instead.

this review is actually for the meet restaurant in yaletown but it seems they don’t yet have a page. i had a delicious portobello mushroom burger which was filling and satisfying to my tastebuds. would definitely order and eat here again!

location : either 25 brentwood to main street or 3 downtown to 25th ave (transit in vancouver )

ambience : very busy place . servers are welcoming.

food: its a vegan place guys ... both vegan n non-vegan guys can enjoy their cheat day burgers with fries n salad n dip...... they serve huge burgers with patty that mimic meat , cheese n all of non- vegan stuffs !

with the portion size they serve, price is okay-ish.

i really enjoyed the food! i'm not vegan but the crispy bbq burger is one of the best burgers i have ever had! we tried a few different fries and salads and enjoyed everything we had. the service was quick and friendly, nothing to complain about! the only problem i have with meet on main is that the drinks are a bit pricy. $9.50 for a bridge brewing saison, which was "on special" is outrageous. it is above the average price point for a beer and not worth it!
but over all i really enjoyed it and will most definitely return for food!

food was honestly alright, yet i wish i knew it was a vegan place before getting in. was gladly surprise of that feta cheese, the teem poutine was quite descent.

our server was zero friendly i don't think i saw her smile not even once, we had to ask other servers to give us water; our server didn't care to go by and ask "how's your food" but until we were almost done.

we didn't felt welcomed and actually had a little passive aggressiveness feeling from the whole interaction. so will most likely never go back nor recommend it and it's such a shame that one place and one person gives such bad reputation to such a beautiful way of living that is loving nature and taking care of yourself.

i found this place online and it seemed to have great reviews, so i suggested it to avocado!i called to make a reservation but unfortunately was told that they don’t accept reservations. i waited about 15 minutes and took the time to read over the menu options, which was perfect as avocado had just arrived.mac n’ cheese, $10.75: i haven’t had the regular version of this dish for so long because it’s dairy death. but this one is vegan so yay!
