French Meadow Bakery & Cafe
2610 Lyndale Ave. S., Minneapolis, MN 55408
(612) 870-7855
Although French Meadow isn't exclusively a vegetarian restaurant, it's very veggie friendly and, dare we say, even vegan-friendly. There's a rotating vegan soup of the day; sometimes it's black bean chili, sometimes it's a stew. If you do dairy, do the roasted vegetable sandwich, overflowing with roasted portobello mushrooms, red peppers, caramelized onions, arugula, and a creamy goat cheese-herb spread served on homemade ciabatta bread. An egg salad sandwich, served on healthy hemp bread with Havarti cheese, makes a great light lunch. Dinner meals (with table service and a wine list) include a lasagna loaded with vegetables and fresh mozzarella; an organic shepherd's pie with eggplant, mushrooms, carrots, and tomatoes topped with garlic mashed potatoes and cheddar cheese; and macaroni and cheese made with aged organic white cheddar and spinach. Not to be missed is the veggie burger: A spicy golden patty that's crunchy with veggies and topped with a secret sauce of tomato, capers, and tofu, it clearly stands outside the shadow of any hamburger. Other items include several organic salads, a tempeh Reuben, the 30-plus varieties of bread made daily, and sweet bakery treats.
