After learning I was gluten intolerant and coupled with my aversion to cooking, finding healthy, prepared, GF foods has been extremely difficult. I often have to sacrifice flavour, imagination and culinary quality when dining out to accommodate my intolerance. However, Kindfood provides a completely opposite experience. Hands down, the BLAT was the best sandwich I’ve had in over a year and it’s the best GF sandwich to date! The quinoa side salad was simple but delicious and the macaroons, amazing! The dedicated, passionate, helpful, friendly staff made the visit very worth it. This is a fabulous concept. I’m definitely going to be a frequent customer working my way through the menu…can’t wait for my next BLAT! Thank you Kindfood

Kindfood has been an incredible blessing to me!! I struggled with the thought of what I had to give up going Vegan. However, the more I researched and the more I learned, my consciousness grew around food. I realized the only healthy way to go was to become Vegan. I have been Vegetarian for as long as I can remember. I had a real issue with Animal cruelty as a youth and that helped me boycott eating meat. The more I learned about Dairy, I found out that it was incredible Dis-ease causing and was hearing and learning about it for years. In fact, there is a lot of animal cruelty behind dairy as well. My daily walk of life is a spiritual one. I cannot claim to be spiritual in my mind if I am supporting cruelty. Scripture tells us to be kind to all living things. I no longer support BAD KARMA. I had heard about Kindfood from a friend of mine. She told me there is a new vegan cafe that just opened up in town. I was incredible excited about this. I remember dragging a friend of mine to come check it out with me the first time, and I have been there every week since they have opened! Sometimes more then once a week to be honest. I'm very happy to know I have a place to come to where I don't have to worry about what I'm about to purchase and consume. When I shop or eat other places, I have to work harder to find out whats hidden in the food. I'm very comfortable coming here and I feel very blessed to know there are amazing people in this world that want to make a difference and open a path for like minded people to follow. The staff is incredible humble and sweet. There all very "KIND". Which makes them one of a "KIND"!!! I love this shop! The atmosphere and the energy in the store is awesome. Its all very positive and I wish them all the success in the world and hope that this will inspire others to go "VEGAN"!! Like Gandhi says... "Be the change you wish to see in the world" :-D -One love-

I have always wanted to try the vegan lifestyle, as I am very healthy and want to stay that way as I age.
I was so excited when Kindfood opened in Burlington. We have sooo needed a healthy place to eat and buy food in Downtown Burlington.
Kelly is so knowledgeable and helpful, Love the great food. Thanks

Hi Kelly, I've been coming to the store for a couple of months now and I just decided to do some reading on your website last week. I have read a LOT of books/articles, etc. on why to go vegan but I thought your way of writing and the compilation of research were really unique. I found reading the site very informative and non-threatening. I'm always looking for places to refer people to read when they ask me "Why don't you eat dairy?" or "Where do you get your protein?" and now your site is the place I'll be sending them :) Anyway, thanks and talk to you soon!

My daughter and I found Kindfood on the internet. We drove from New York to go try out this vegan cafe since there are not many around our area and certainly not enough in the USA. What a bright beautiful cafe. The food was so fresh and delicious! The owners were so friendly and went out of their way to make you happy. It's nice to have such wonderful tasting food and know that it's good for you is a bonus! We hope you enjoyed our book "Happy, Healthy, Vegan Kids" by Tracie DeMotte, Tasha and Tierra Carlson which can be found on Amazon.com and in book stores.

My husband and I drove from Welland after I saw your website. Once I was at your store I felt like a kid in a candy store. So many choises. The food was awesome. Ken helped us and he was so very friendly. It was definetly worth the drive. I wish you had a store here in Niagara.

I have had celiac disease for two years and a half now, and have never tasted such moist and delicious gluten free treats that taste even better than normal baked goods. My mom is gluten and lactose intolerant and it is nice that we have a place to enjoy lunch in peace without worrying about cross-contamination. Thanks kindfood!

Hi Kelly,
I’m in the process of transitioning from vegetarian to vegan and would love to attend any cooking classes you may be running! Is there a schedule and how do I sign up?
I live in Burlington and am so thrilled that you are so close - I’ll be stopping by regularly! I think what you are doing is wonderful

Food was amazing! First time I have enjoyed a natual food restaurant that you can actually enjoy the taste of the healthy food you are putting in your body. But, the best part was the yummmmmy! dessert of a chocolate peanut butter cupcake topped with sweet gooey icing and crunchy, nutty? stuff on top. The cupcake was pricey at $4.00 each but worth every penny. Absolutely will be lunching here again and again!
