This is definitely my favorite vegan restaurant. They have American comfort food like Chicken and Waffles, as well as great burgers and sandwiches. Absolutely love this place!

Wayward Cafe has been a longtime favorite in Seattle’s vegan scene and still offers one of the larger vegan menu sections around. I've always appreciated how much variety they have. You could order everything from vegan pancakes and waffles to vegan drumsticks and hearty pasta dishes. For a long time, it was one of my go-to breakfast spots, especially for vegan pancakes and waffles. In 2026, the restaurant transitioned away from being fully vegan to becoming an omni restaurant. This has caused a lot of upset in the local vegan community. Despite their changes, they still maintain a large vegan menu section and continue to offer many of the dishes that originally made the restaurant popular -- as of 5/6/26.
