The Red Cup 3122 North Classen Boulevard, Oklahoma City, OK 73118

"I have a new favorite place to dine in OKC. The Red Cup is much more than amazing coffee in large porcelain cups. No, it is a 100% vegetarian and vegan restaurant that serves amazing food. Located mere feet off North Classen, which was the original 1926 alignment of Historic Route 66, it is as much given to quirky art as it is progressive fare. Inside and out, it is a feast for starving eyes and stomachs. I went with the Vagabond, a tofu scramble with potatoes, broccoli, onions, pepper, tomatoes, and cashew “cheese” sauce. Two slices of rainbow bread toast filled out the generous serving, all of which came delightfully fast in spite of it being very crowded. There’s a full menu of delightful options, and it will take several subsequent visits to get a better sampling. But if all the others are as good as my scramble, then this place is for keeps on my must-hit places in OKC. The Red Cup is so committed to the plant-based scene that cashew cheese and tofu are the default settings. You have to ask for egg or real cheese, a total flip from what I am accustomed to. It’s a nice change! Were it not so chilly and damp on my visit, I would have sat outside, which I am sure is delightful in warmer months. But for this time, I was content to be inside where it was warm, and the food and coffee warmed my soul even more. I’ll be back."

"The coffee was delicious! I rarely comment about coffee, but this was particularly good coffee. They have plenty of vegan options. The food was delicious. The atmosphere was friendly and warm. However, the person taking our order seemed really grumpy. She didn't smile or engage us as we were ordering. She gave me the impression that she was upset that she was working, or maybe she had an off day. However, it was noticeable. She was like that the entire time we were there, and with every customer. Outside of that, the place was great."

"Great food lots of vegan choices. Nice art work. A very comfortable and fun place."

"The best food ever and friendliest staff. Everything on the menu is delicious and it’s a very large menu with a lot of variety. The outdoor patio tables and pond are lovely and quaint. I couldn’t live in a world without Red Cup! Truly my favorite restaurant that I’ve ever had. I always get Marinara pasta with extra cashew cream cheese"
