Southern Roots Filling Station

Southern Roots offers vegan and gluten free food inspired by regional vegetation and seasonal harvesting. The head chef works diligently to utilize local farmers and incorporate produce that is seasonally available, which helps reduce carbon footprint. Additionally, the “Snail of approval” means that each order is prepared with intention and nothing is hastily thrown together. Highly recommend stopping in and breaking bread with a friend. Definitely the best avo toast in town.

Southern Roots has been such a staple in the community. It has been a champion for accessibility and better options while still maintaining a high standard of delicious. It was one of the few places that I could go and eat during my vegan journey, and I have a lot of other people who feel the same. This is goodbye. It’s just see you later ❤️

I'm just starting to be vegan, and I wanted a nice brunch out. I also wanted to try a tofu scramble, so I could see what it's supposed look and taste like. I went around 10:30am. When I arrived, I was greeted with a smile. I ordered and was able to sit right away, and my coffee and tofu scramble were ready pretty quickly. However, it did start getting pretty busy by 11:00am. I had a decaf coffee with their in-house caramel syrup. Both the food and coffee were delicious! It was nice to know that everything there was vegan. That meant I could try any and everything (and I plan to). There were desserts that looked so good. I can't wait to try them! The atmosphere is very open and relaxing. It was nice to enjoy my brunch sitting by the window and just people-watching. I think it's a great place for everyone; familes of all kinds. There were even some fur babies with their parents at the tables outside. I'll definitely be going back. I mean, I've got to try some dessert! 😊

Great food and the coffee is A1 top shelf. Even got a lesson on Columbian coffee 💯💯. The owner gave a In debth story about Columbia and where the best coffee in the world is made. The vegan sandwich was excellent and the blueberry muffin was on a whole new level . I never experienced food or coffee like this in my life. Very great experience

I always forget to take photos of the food when it's really THAT good. This place is what we were hoping for in Jax, the coolest little husband and wife owned Cafe. Everything has love and thoughts behind it- the coffee is their own brand, they make everything from scratch besides the bread and bagels (because they're not gf) the espresso machine is the good kind (Starbucks has nothing on their matcha latte and cold brews, so stop in here some morning vs your basic coffee stop) BEST FOOD WE'VE HAD in this city. But it's 100% our style, so come try it for yourself and see what you think. We had the Bahn MI special SOO GOOD, the Blisscuit (nice and perfect size), Avacado cream-cheez and side salad. The muffins are also delicious. Try it all! We sure will 😋

Gluten free and vegan.... loving it.... I could eat here everyday. The gluten free biscuits are like none other. The best place in Jax for gluten free donuts made fresh everyday. We had a latte drink that was perfect. No complaints except my access to their services. Great job Southern Roots.... Love the cardboard serving containers. I finally got a picture of a doughnut 🍩 for my review. It's usually gone...;-)

If you're looking for a chill Cafe, with clean, locally sourced eating options this is your spot. The caramel expresso was one of the best I've ever had but the Strawberry Matcha.... unmatched... world renown.😊 great service, friendly faces, oh, and the sweet toothed patron is right at home here. We ordered the blackberry churro donut, oh.. my.. goodness, it was perfect to split bc that mammajamma was so rich. 5/5 recommend this spot. The only reason I withheld a star is it's kinda pricey but I should blame that on inflation I suppose.

We love Southern Roots! Everything I’ve tried has been so yummy, but my favorite is the Lox Plate! They have developed such a creative and tasty vegan menu, and I really appreciate having a restaurant so close to home that is dedicated to vegan cuisine. Even my husband, who is not vegetarian/vegan enjoys it.
