MeeT on Main

Great vegan soul food. I highly recommend the kimchi poutine, the wings. It's hard to find parking but the food comes fast! They're always busy

So so good. Ordered the crispy chicken burger and ohh my goodness!! Teem poutine was AMAZING! The topper was the house made orange cream soda! Best thing I have ever drank IN MY LIFE...like seriously IN MY LIFE!

Service was fabulous. Everything was fabulous!

I'd been reading about La Poutine Week for a few years now but hadn't gotten around to trying it. We had tried Meet on Main restaurant once and loved it, so when I read that Meet on Main was part of La Poutine Week this year I decided, "This is the year that I will finally try a La Poutine Week poutine!"

My daughter and I are poutine lovers so this was an excellent mother/daughter outing for us. Meet on Main 's offering for La Poutine Week is called "Meet Yr Maker" Poutine. It's a plant based poutine with gravy, cheez shred, mac n cheez, bac'n chunks, buffalo sauce and ranch sauce.

Usually, our daughter just orders a plain, basic poutine wherever she goes. This was the first time she'd tried a fancier poutine with toppings other than gravy and cheese curds. She loved this and so did I! It's a mound of comfort foods packed into one dish, and plant based to boot! Oh Meet on Main , "Please please please add this to your regular menu!!!"

Oh, we also ordered and shared their Nashville Hunny Glazed Mac n Cheez Donuts. Those were heavenly too. Imagine Mac n Cheese, molded into the shape of a donut and finished off with a crunchy panko crust. Also plant based. The Nashville hunny glaze gives an extra kick but honestly, we feel that the Mac n Cheez Donuts taste good already on their own. The hunny glaze is a nice option for those who like a bit of extra spice, but unnecessary for us.

Poutine lover or not, meat lover or not...Meet on Main is a "must try"!

Spontaneously came in with a friend on a weeknight. Busy, but no wait for a table. Friendly service. Enjoyed a glass of Hoochy Booch kombucha on tap and a Mediterranean burger. I can appreciate that fries and salad are both included with the burger, but the fries did were a little greasy and did nothing for me. To be fair, I'm not a fries person, but I can occasionally be convinced by really good fries. The burger was great though, and the patty was hefty and filling. I was happy with the price I paid ($25, including the drink) for a very filling meal.
I noticed the decor more than I did the last time I was here. Its eclectic and I can see where there are spots in the design that can come across as "crowded", but I like this style, I think it's fun and interesting.

This was the first time to this Meet location. Staff was friendly, no pretentious vibes here. It is very nice to go places where they don't make your partner or yourself feel bad for not ordering more things or drinks in my case!

Lemon Tart - DELICIOUS! Looks more like a Cake Slice to me but the taste more than makes up for any qualms about the naming of this tasty morsel. I'm not usually a big fan of coconut anything but this coconut crust has made me a fan. Lemon game was the right profile of slightly tart but sweet. Overall a great ending to a light meal.

Steak Tostada- Had a bit of a saltier taste profile but but the sour cream taste was quite nice. Steak curls were just a tad too salty for me. I wouldn't let these stay on the table too long next time as the shell can get a doggy from the liquid and moisture. Is the curl itself actually meat? I'm not sure to be honest. I couldn't really tell. All things considered, I don't usually look for a curl of a steak.

Beet Salad - large & feeling. Would have preferred more beets but did it's job and filled up our tummy

Oyster Mushroom Calamari- Probably my least favorite. I'm not sure I prefer mushrooms fried. Worth a gamble.

Nice space to go to enjoy some eats.

I have yet to visit MeeT on Main with a guest who has not left amazed with the "kalamari" or whatever seasonal cocktail is on the menu that month! I could eat here almost every day. Very friendly staff, great ambience, solid serving sizes and value for great vegan food.

Delicious vegan food, awesome vibe, and super friendly staff! I had the Thanksgiving special. There were 2 imitation turkey patties on a fluffy vegan brioche bun with lemon aioli and orange-date jam. I'm not sure if they bake their own bread or where they get it, because I've never had such a perfect vegan brioche! This all came with a side of "stuffing fries" dressed with stuffing, fried brussels sprouts, and more lemon aioli. It was a huge, filling portion for under $20. They make all their own sodas. I had the orange soda which was delicious, fresh, and not too sweet. The cocktails looked really great too! I would definitely come here again if I lived in Vancouver!!

This was the first of our vegan restaurants tour of Main Street. We had the sweet chili cauliflower for appetizer. For the main course, we had the Mighty Mac Burger and Crispy Chickun Burger. Best of the bunch was the sweet chili cauliflower, crispy and sweet. It hits all the right spots. The Mighty Mac Burger was also very good. The Crispy Chickun Burger was okay, crispy but nothing really stood out. I really like that you get half salad and half fries with your order, the best of both worlds.

What a great find! A friend and I were in Vancouver for the day after a fabulous Alaskan vacation, and a friend brought us here. Neither of us are vegan, but we were told the food was delicious. So true!!! We had the sweet chili cauliflower (we left nothing on the plate!) and the oyster mushroom kalamari (sooooo good!). We were both super impressed that a vegan restaurant was so good that it came back in our dreams once we were back in the US. Definitely recommend!

Good food, great drinks. Very casual place to go on your own or last minute with friends

MeeT on Main is a Vegetarian restaurant

I got lucky and won a $50.00 EGift Card from entering the contest at the Health Expo Convention earlier this year.

Parking was VERY CONVENIENT as the empty spot had like an hour on the parking meter.

Thirst:
Elderflower Spritz
Floral elderflower syrup with fresh lemon and soda
Quite refreshing, a definite REPEAT

Yuzu Ginger Soda
House-made ginger shrub, yuzu lemon syrup, lemon juice and soda water
Tastes like Ginger Beer. Yum. a REPEAT. If I return, I would be interested in trying the other types of House-made sodas.

Grub:
Mucho Gusto Burger
Black Bean Patty Burger with half fries (with mayo dip!) and half salad
Chipotle Mayo dip delicious! I love the avocado spread! I would REPEAT, would like to try the other items on the menu.

Appy:
Oyster mushroom Kalamari
Crunchy and tasty.I personally think non-Vegetarians might mistake this as Kalamari.

Cauliflower Sweet Chili
sweet, delicious taste
The taste is quite overpowering, still good. Strong taste.

The experience was great until the bill arrived. They charged me an additional drink that I didn't have. And it took a while for them to resolve the matter, instead of refunding the amount charged and re-charge the correct amount, which had already included tips, they simply offered a 'refund' for the additional mistaken drink.

I would come back here with vegetarian and non-vegetarian friends.
