HIVE Cafe

This place isn't the easiest to find if you're not very familiar with Kutztown... but it's so worth it! Chose the Fin sùt sùt, Red Thai Noodle Bowl... vegan Thai coconut curry with rice noodles and veggies... if you could only smell how good this smells. Stop in sometime and say hi to new owner Sarah!

Wow. Let me start by saying I am not a vegetarian but I love locally sourced fresh food. I heard about hive cafe through their hot sauce business and decided to give them a try.

Being not familiar with Kutztown I wasn't sure where to park but I parked on the Main Street and cut through to the alley. The building is well marked and is adorable inside.

I decided to go with a burger since I really enjoy veggie burgers. I ordered the one with mushrooms and blue cheese (local of course!) and had it served over greens. The burger itself was wonderful - great flavor, texture and with a nice char on it. Probably the best veggie burger I have had. You can tell that it was made from scratch and a lot of thought went into the recipe. The blue cheese and mushrooms were the perfect pairing - adding richness and tang. And finally the greens were so fresh. I realized I ate them all before I had finished the burger because they were so good!

The oat milk soft serve was a nice end to the meal. I love ice cream so wasn't sure what to expect from this non-dairy version but o was pleasantly surprised by how creamy and flavorful it was. I'm glad I tried it and would definitely have it again.

The two people working were both extremely nice and helpful. I will definitely be back!

My husband and I absolutely loved their buffalo "wings"! It's a must try for sure. This restaurant serves organic food and roots their practice in sustainability. It was great to see the wooden utensils and compost system they have going on there. So happy to support local restaurants who care about the environment and the health of the people they serve!

Recently ate here for the first time while visiting a loved one at Kutztown U. Tried to go last time I was up, but it was randomly closed for the weekend. This restaurant has a very cool interior but boutique hours and prices. My pumpkin latte wasn't great, but the food was decent. In conclusion, I liked this restaurant, but trying to find a time when it's open was a challenge and the food was just alright. I probably won't come here again, but I'm glad I got in here this one time. If you're vegan or vegetarian, this place definitely has the most variety in Kutztown.

Ordered the wings and Mac and cheese. Bomb Diggety. I wish they had better hours. Dint park in the lot directly across the front door or you will come out to your car with a note warning you that they will tow your car if you park there again. I was I side the restaurant for literally 5 minutes when they out a note on my car.

LOVE! This place is amazing. Adorable atmosphere with indoor and outdoor dining options. Tons of options for vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, plant based alike. A small refrigerated section with grab and go items also available. Food is locally sourced and always delicious! I loved the "cheese steak." Definitely a replete customer here.

Ive never had any specific problems with the food here, but I have had issues with their hours time and again. From incorrectly posted hours halfway through quarantine to just generally not being open for late lunch/dinner or week days some weeks, i hear they're now only open on Friday and Saturday? Make sure you call!!

This place has the best vibe and nicest staff. The menu could have used a few more vegan options but what I had was good and came out quickly. The salad that came with my lunch was good, but the must store the dressing in the fridge because the evoo was solid. No need to refrigerate balsamic and evoo friends! The salad was colorful and fresh. Delicious beets! The grilled cheese was tasty and the bread was very fresh tasting. Overall, I need to go back and try their vegan cheesesteak next time! Also they had vegan treats from Bethlehem and I got the PB brownie and wow. That was amazing. I also bought a loaf of the fresh bread and a few other items and everyone on the staff was helpful and told me when I almost got something not vegan so that was super.

Tucked away on a side street, open only two days a week, this place is a fabulous find for vegans (and of course vegetarians.) The food was delicious and the owners are incredibly nice. The space is rough hewn and very appealing. We had the pulled portobello sandwich, the Korean burger, and a special couscous. All were great. And so was the homemade vegan soft serve!

The absolute best veggie burger I have ever eaten. The brioche was perfect, rich and not at all dry. Apparently it's shipped in from NY! Also had the garden salad which was incredibly fresh and delicious. All organic and amazing. Cannot go wrong here.
