Vegetarian/Vegan Spot: Austin's Coffee



This entry will begin a series of restaurants/coffee shops in the Orlando area that have vegetarian/vegan options. I will begin with Austin's Coffee since it was the most recent place I visited. Austin's is located in Winter Park near Rollins College and Park Avenue. They have a variety of vegan sandwiches and soups available for both lunch and dinner. Also worth noting are the selection of vegan desserts such as chocolate cake (my selection). An independent company called The Fat Vegan runs their line of vegan donuts out of Austin's as well. If you like coffee I suppose this is the place for you. Austin's has "organic fairtrade beans" that are roasted right in the shop. This shop also plays host to a variety of events such as Open Mic Hip Hop, Comedy, Music, etc. I believe Baroness played a show here once. Check out their site for more information: http://www.austinscoffee.comThe Fat Vegan (www.myspace.com/thefatvegan)
