Stephanie's Vegan Bakery and Cafe in Fort Lauderdale - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Could I give more than 5 stars? The food is absolutely delicious. I try to stick more to a whole food vegan diet but Stephanie’s gets my tastebuds dancing for joy when I’m in for a sweet treat. The breakfast items are top notch. I can’t wait to try more. I ordered while I’ve been in the hospital and asked for items to be back separately for easy storage in a communal fridge and the team did exactly that…and even left a sweet “get well” message on the bag. That small gesture added a smile when I needed it most. Thank you! 🙏🏼🙏🏼

We came across this place while on a trip visiting my father in Ft. Lauderdale. Discovering a place where everything is vegan and with gluten free options for breakfast was a real treat. We had their vegan takes on egg and sausage bagel sandwiches and they were so good, not only did we come back in the evening when the bakery turns into the Funky Love restaurant, but we got some sandwiches to go for our return flight which way too early in the morning!

I ordered a custom cake from Stephanie in June for a birthday party. I sent her a pic of what I wanted and she agreed then I showed up to the party and I got looked totally different. I waited to text her after the party and she completely ignored my text till today. Really bad customer service and I will not recommend.

One of my favorite vegan spots. I love the breakfast sandwiches. (Bagel, w/ “bacon egg n cheese”, vanilla latte, & the guava pastry is so delicious! Service & food is consistent. Always a great experience.

I had a fantastic time there. Cheeseburger Empanadas ... Amazing! Breakfast egg and bacon bagel ... delicious ... Key Lime Pie ... Really good. And all of it vegan! Can recommend ...

I got the bacon egg and cheese bagel, chocolate croissant, and a white chocolate iced latte. Everything was amazing and totally vegan 🤩 Just moved to the area and I’m super stoked to live within 10 minutes of this place. I can’t wait to come back!!!

The food was delicious! The customer service is superb! I ordered the Taco Wrap! 🌯 My husband ordered the beef tacos, beef, pizza, and cheeseburger empanadas. We also ordered the ham and cheese pastelito! Everything was so delicious!! The quality of ingredients is what I admire the most about this place!

Super nice guy attending the front and was just amazing! Great presentation and the best tasting vegan food I have had in South Florida.

Great food and energy. The taco wrap is my fav and I’d travel from Coral Springs for it and the pizza empanadas! Love it

My fave bakery :) cute clean place with so many delicious pastries, food & drinks.

I live in West Palm, 1st time at Stephanie’s, love cheeseburger empanadas, had the tacos as well. Topped it off with the mini cheesecake . My compliments

Ordered everything, and it was all delicious!

I decided to give Stephanie’s a try after exploring vegan options near me on Google. Parking in the front is limited but I was told there is additional parking (and an entrance) in the back. Once inside, I noticed the bright and stylish appearance of the store and was soon greeted by the staff. I decided on a cheese quesadilla and a cheeseburger empanada which I ordered to go. It wasn’t long before my food was served in a white paper bag (surprisingly). I enjoyed the quesadilla which was hot and tasty, yet challenging to eat out of the bag. The empanada was lukewarm and salty. Plus I didn’t realize there was a sauce in the bottom of the bag until afterwards. This vegan bakery also serves coffee, tea, smoothies, natural juices, pastries, cupcakes etc. Next time I’ll dine in for the complete experience.

The cupcakes were delicious! Parking in the back of building, just an FYI

Great selection and service. Relatively fast for an in person take out order

Unbelievable all plant based food!!! HIGHKY recommend!

Very good and delicious vegan food

The food is delicious. The pastelitos are so soft, buttery, flakey and savory. I got the beef one and I’m kicking myself for not getting more. Could eat this all day. Come to this spot if you are vegan!

Great vegan 🌱 food and desserts

This is a hole in the wall, counter service vegan bakery and cafe, but it's clean, bright, friendly and the food is outstanding.

Everything tastes great! Service is fast and friendly. Great job 👏

Hands down the best vegan place I’ve ever been to. I ordered the everything bagel with a cappuccino & my mother had a veggie burrito w/ green smoothie! Absolutely delicious everything was amazing thank you so much Stephanie for such exceptional customer service 😩 we will be back !!!!!!

The food was amazing! The beef empanadas and guava cheese pastelito were to die for. The Ironman smoothie tasted heavenly. Definitely a must go place when visiting Fort Lauderdale. Lots of vegan options and lovely atmosphere!

came w my brother on our first trip to florida. The empanada was gooood, one of the best vegan places we’ve been to around the world! Glad this place is around

Not many gluten-free options, but the raw brownie was tasty. Service was okay, they encouraged us to use the digital ordering system, which kinda took away from the experience/warm welcome.

Wow! Vegan Beef Empanada and Key Lime Pie was incredible!! Can’t wait to come back!!

I'm Vegan and went here with my sister who isn't. We both loved it. Her only complaint was the portion size. I had a bacon egg & cheese bagel and carrot cake. She had the beef empanada and a soup. The good thing is that they are open late on the weekends. I would definitely visit again.

Amazing vegan deliciousness. I’m so happy to have found this hidden gem! The pizza pastelitos are my favorites, not to mention their breakfast items 🤌🏼 More importantly, this is a family-owned business —Stephanie and Manny are a great team that welcome you as if you are family. They have that special way to delight. I wish them much success and cheers to many more iron “woman” shakes!

This place is amazing!! I am obsessed with their pizza and Argentinian style empanadas!! Their cupcakes are so moist and soft, it's hard to believe that they are vegan. Most vegan cupcakes I've had are always dry and hard but not here. The owner also let me have a taste of a new cupcake she might be adding to the menu and let me tell you, I HOPE she does!! My other favorites here are the tacos with extra Ozzie Sauce and the Taco Salad. Love me some taco salads and this one is extra good. If you're looking for smoothies, the Ironman is my favorite. We're also ordering a cake for my Godson's birthday. Literally a one stop shop. You have got to try this place out!!

Loved Stephanie and her bakery and cafe!!! The Ironman smoothie was superb, as were the pizza empanada and the tacos!!! Stephanie please come to Wisconsin!!🌞

Always great service and delicious food!

worst vegan place I've ever visited in the world. Ordered a taco salad and wrap. Both had bitter greens that were drenched in some sort of vinegar. I was literally coughing for 20 minutes after taking one bite. There are much better vegan options out there. I would never recommend this place to anyone.

Absolutely amazing. Ordered from here multiple times and the food is always amazing. I have tried multiple pastries and dishes and I have not had one that I dislike. Very awesome to get some nice clean vegan eats when I don’t feel like cooking.

Stephanie's vegan restaurant is a true delight! service is exceptional, ensuring a warm and dining experience. The quality of their shakes, smoothies, and burritos is top-notch; each bite bursting with flavorful goodness. What impresses me most is the swift service, taking care of customers efficiently without compromising on quality. Stephanie's vegan restaurant truly stands out as a haven for fast and high-quality vegan delights. Highly recommended!

Staff is rude and slow. The food is not good at all and expensive. The smoothie fruit is frozen and stuck together, not fresh at all , surprised the blades on the blender aren't broken. Don't recommend at all. Parking is horrible as well!

Owner and chef was very knowledgeable about gluten free and vegan options available (many options! - all delicious!) Took precaution with preparation and even has a separate gluten free toaster and prep section. Many vegan options contain gluten, I was happy to find a place that was both vegan AND gluten free. Tacos were excellent!

Delicious vegan food. I haven’t had a Colombian hot chocolate in years and I was able to get a vegan one here. Yummy empanadas, super tasty and filling. The bagel, eggs, and bacon was scrumptious. The guava and cheese pastry so so so good! Can’t wait to try more from here!! Next on my list are the vegan hot dogs and quesadillas!

Loved this quaint little spot. Great pastelitos and fabulous service

Very tasty beef tacos. Salads could be better: only spring mix and kale available, no Romaine. Egg sandwiches are OK.

I happened to be in the area and decided to give this place a try based on the reviews. I’m happy I did. I tried the cheeseburger empanada and taco wrap. Both were great, tasty, filling and light. If it weren’t so far, I’d be back again soon.

My favorite vegan bakery. The food is consistently delicious and fresh.

I don’t know how you screw up avacado toast but they do! Sliced avacado on bread …… avacado toast means toasted bread …… how do you not toast the bread ? Went in a second time and said please make sure the bread is toasted … happened again…. Like how and why?

This is a very good vegan Cafe and bakery! I'm fully vegan and my wife is pescatarian. We enjoyed the pastries, including their "beef" empanadas. They make their own beef (its 100% vegan) and it is very good. We also tried their cheesecake, key lime pie and carrot cake (we did try not to be greedy...truly!). We asked Stephanie what she recommended and she was right on point - especially the Ozzie sauce (her father's recipe). If you're vegan (or not), I encourage you to visit this place. I'm putting this on my "next time I come here" list. Thank you, Stephanie, for creating good food for us vegans!

Stephanie's is amazing. We had a burrito, a taco, avocado toast, and different croissants. Everything was so tasty! The coffee was perfect. I highly recommend it!

Great food. I ordered the Mexican burrito. I think that’s what it was with their homemade beyond meat. I was skeptical and I was way wrong. It was absolutely amazing.

Very wide variety of vegan/plant based selection. The entire menu is vegan and we tried a lot of options and each and every dish was delicious. Their cheese based dishes were one of the best vegan cheese dishes we have tasted. These were almost indistinguishable from dairy cheese. Their empanadas were crispy and tasty. Their mini pies were good too. The wraps were filled with fresh veggies and tasty sauces. Overall the whole fare was a fantastic and fulfilling vegan experience even for us who are not vegan.

All vegan, which is fantastic. But ... We bought a key lime pie and a cinnamon roll to go. I forgot to take a photo of the cinnamon roll but it was about as tiny as the key lime pie pictured. Total cost about $13. Expensive, but that would be fine if they were amazing. They were not. The roll was dry and not cinnamon-y enough. The key lime pie tasted of lime, not key lime, and the crust was bland. (Pre-gan I used to make key lime pie all the time and I really should just veganize my old recipe.) This was as unappetizing as the photo looks. As for cinnamon rolls, I'll stick with Cinnaholic. But I will give the place another chance and try something savory next time. As vegans, we like to support vegan businesses.

The taco wrap is so good i want to move to florida to have another. I could live on those.

Ordered doordash to the hotel and the food was amazing, some of the best vegan food I've ever had, I can't imagine how great it would be fresh! the beef pastelito was amazing breakfast bagel was also amazing!! I did order a s'mores cupcake and they gave me a Napolitan but I'm assuming they were just out. definitely recommend stopping by if you're anywhere near the area

This place is absolutely amazing. It was a rare gem we were so lucky to find while we were visiting. The tacos were incredible. The ginger tea was just right. The sauces were to die for. The crust was so flaky and perfectly made on the pastilitos. The decor, music, and lighting made the experience even more enjoyable. I am trained in culinary, and I have been cooking for 24 years. I love fine dining, and this is better vegan food than they make in top-notch restaurants with vegan options. It is better than many fine dining vegan restaurants in many aspects, and it's very affordable. We ordered, ate some and then invited our friends and got more food for our road trip. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants some amazing, healthy food in the area.

Love this place so much. Whenever I'm in the area I stock up on delicious goodies!!

First time there. Order two empanada’s and a vanilla cappuccino. The spinach empanada is so good. Everything was great. Gentlemen behind the counter was very friendly. I will come back and recommend others.

Ordered breakfast through uber eats an everything bagel with just egg and cheese and it was delicious!

Very nice atmosphere and great service! I had the cinnamon raisin bagel with sausage, egg and cheese, it’s was really good.

I am so grateful this bakery opened up in East Ft Lauderdale! So far everything I’ve tried I have loved. The cupcakes are perfect icing to cake ratio and not overly sweet like all of the other vegan bakeries. The empanadas are delish. Iced latte was perfect. The beef tacos are something I crave and now have to have once a week. Can’t wait to try all the other menu items.

Delicious food and very friendly staff!

WOW! Thank you Stephanie and your amazing staff! The food has really raised the bar for vegan options, all the sauces are homemade, super clean and gorgeous inside as well.

I love the place! Amazing food and very delicious! If you’re craving great vegan food, desserts, burritos, etc… this is the place

I’m not vegan but I give it a try, the best avocado toast I ever had (toast street corn) so good, the coffe is really good and fresh ❤️❤️❤️ we’ll be back 😎

Friendly service and great selection of baked goods and freshly prepared foods. Definitely check this place out! Guava and cheese pastelito with colada…mmmm, so good!

Been here twice! I have to limit myself because of the deliciousness. From baked goods to sandwiches, it's all delicious! Today's picks were baked goods with a breakfast bagel. Chefs kiss!

I thought this a good option since I like foods that are healthier and vegan. However, after my visit and eating, I wouldn't recommend this place. The staff was friendly and they provided good service. However, I tried the ham and cheese pastelito and it seemed they heated it in the microwave. The pastry was flat and it lacked ham flavor. The colada was very bitter. In total I paid $28 for 2 empanadas, 1 pastelito, 1 colada and cortadito.

So happy we discovered this place. It’s got what many other vegan places don’t , variety! Every single thing we have tried thus far has surpassed expectations. And prices are very reasonable. If I lived close enough I would be here daily! Staff is very kind and helpful.

I wish you could give half stars. The service was great. The avocado and arugula salad, very good (a bit too much dressing for me, but I like salad lightly dressed and I continue to forget to specify). The empanada (Spinach and vegan cheese) was tasty, though not a huge fan of faux cheese. The almond / coconut flavor of the key lime pie over powered the lime, and the shortening left a bit of a fat texture. I have a high bar for key lime pie. The chocolate cupcake was good, but the cake was a bit dense and a little dry. I will definitely go back

I came here to pickup a gift for a coworker. The downside is there is no individual packaging for the cupcakes or company names on the bag. The cupcakes were pretty decent even though it did not look like the pictures online.

Great gluten free a dairy free options made fresh, thank you!

From breaky to dessert... Stephanie's not only has it all, but it is all GREAT. My personal favs: black bean & corn empanada, chocolate cupcake, and that sweet sweet BECCCCCC (bacon egg cheese), BABY!

Great food, far beyond exceeded my expectations. It was my first time eating Vegan food, I tried the beef tacos " Delicios." The place is spot on clean, respectful, kind and caring staff. The manager and staff ate very friendly. I highly recommend this place. 👌

Rice bowl with vegan ground beef was delicious and filling. The mini pumpkin pie is so tiny but tasty. Valerie was a very attentive server, the atmosphere was bright and welcoming. I did request that the very loud music be turned down and they did that gladly.

The food is amazing! Great selection of vegan items. We tried a few pastelitos, empanadas and the beef quesadilla, and all of them tasted amazing. Some of the best ones we’ve ever eaten. We will be back soon!

I was really intrigued when I saw this place on Uber Eats as there are not many vegan options around and I find it hard to find places that accommodate my dietary restrictions/allergies. I was really happy with the street corn avocado toast. It was very tasty. The banana bread had a really nice flavor, despite being a little dry. I know this can be the case with vegan options so I wasn’t really bothered by it. The only thing I was disappointed in was the coffee. It was extremely watery and did not have much flavor at all. I like my coffee strong especially in the morning. Overall really great place and would try again!

El lugar muy lindo, la atención cálida, buena variedad de opciones. Pedí empanadas argentina style, muy ricas de sabor, pero recalentadas en microwave, por lo que salieron muy blandas y cero crocantes. Lo mismo con uno de los pastries que pedí, recalentado en el microwave, lo que le quitó sabor y textura, estaba súper blando. El café que pedí la verdad estaba feo, aguado y mal hecho. Por eso es que reste las dos estrellas. Tienen muy poco lugar para Parkear, tener en cuanta eso…
