One of our local favorites is back in business after moving to a new location. Neighborhood Joe, the popular (mostly) vegan cafe and eatery, announced that will officially open on February 15 at 2325 Dr. MLK Jr St N, in the same plaza as Trip’s Diner and Jennie’s Flowers.
The indie cafe closed its original location just up the block at the end of December and has spent the last six weeks getting moved into its spacious and bright new home. Beginning on Thursday, Neighborhood Joe will resume its usual operating days and hours.

While we missed the great coffee and tasty vegan eats during the time without them, regulars will be happy to know that all the same things they’ve loved about Neighborhood Joe over the years will be coming along to the new location. And in fact, this new location will actually offer more outdoor and patio space than the current cafe. You’ll be able to raise a mug and air-toast passerby.
In addition to hot and iced coffees, lattes, and teas, Neighborhood Joe has become a cult favorite for its savory baked goods and all-vegan eats, including plenty of gluten-free options. The cafe is open for breakfast and lunch daily, featuring a wide variety of sandwiches, omelets, melts, salads, pastries, and smoothie bowls.
The blueberry muffins are difficult to resist when stopping in for a cup of coffee, and the vegan BLT is a particular delight: marinated tempeh, tomato, avocado slices, fresh arugula and sprouts with “veganaise” on your choice of bread (gluten-free sourdough, gluten-free millet and flax, or thick sliced multigrain.)
