Mother’s Cafe is one of THE BEST! There’s also Magnolia Cafe and Bouldin Creek Coffehouse. All offer excellent vegetarian/vegan and organic meals.

If you ask about “The Parlor” around town, someone will tell you where it is. I forget exactly, though it’s run by some very nice people. It’s not traditionally vegetarian, being as it’s a pizza place/bar, but they have vegetarian selections, and they’re super cool.

There are tons of great veggie-friendly places in town – Austin is a very good city for that, especially by TX standards, but even by CA standards (where I lived previously). Casa De Luz is a great macrobiotic vegan coop; most burger places (like P. Terry’s) offer great veggie burgers; and if you eat dairy, every mex place in town will have something for you.

Mothers is awesome. A few others are west lynn cafe and veggie heaven…yum

Veggie Heaven on Guadalupe is good, Mothers is a classic.
