I love this place. Highly recommended. I was so happy to see that they are opening up again.

This is a fantastic place to visit. If your looking for some real fresh home cooking thats vegan, delicious and healthy then this is the Must Stop Here place. There are certain times for different dishes on their web site. But when you come in its buffet style and you are charged by the weight. I would say its a fair price for real healthy fresh home cooked food. And they dont gouge you on the dessert either like most places do. For the quality of the dessert I had (which not many could compare) I think it was all a fair price. The staff here (or owners, not sure) are just super super friendly and are ready for any questions you may have about the food. You feel like you have just been welcomed in to someones real home kitchen, no kidding. If I lived here I would be here all of the time. Its a real relaxed casual atmosphere. Nothing fancy just cozy home like. I not only enjoyed their food but the hospitality was a whole additional part that made the experience wonderful. There were plenty of regulars here and I can see why. A must try is their vegan cheese cake. It was just scrumptious. It was just freshly made and it was not the frozen kind to keep it together. I dont know if this had a cashew base or what but the texture was so much like a regular cheese cake and with that real cheese cake flavor too. Besides some berries, they also had their own whip cream to put on it. Cant say enough about that either. I remember it was almond and coconut based. Even if your just looking for a real good vegan dessert treat then just stop in for that. You will love it. I know I will be back here every time Im in this area for vacation from now on. A BIG thumbs up !

If youve ever had a bad experience with vegan food (as it is easy to do terribly if you dont know what youre doing), this place can help shed some new light on how vegan food should taste. It was delicious!!

Love love love the food. Awesome service. Delightful people. Highly recommend!

A great vegan and gluten free restaurant. There is a portion pay by weight and a salad and soup bar that is pay by the plate. The owners are incredibly nice and authentic.

Food was delicious and the place was spotless. Cant believe it took me this long to go in. Will be back.

Stopped in while visiting a friend who lived nearby since they told me about this place. All I can say is, WOW. What a great ambiance, great food, and great staff. We were greeted at the door and then walked through the protocol, and given a run down of all food items. We tried a bit of everything and was very impressed with the flavor and tastes of everything. As a vegan, it is hard to find good places to eat out that have options, and I would rank Country Life up as on of the best. Keep up the good work!

I arrive at this outstanding place once a month as I enjoy the special air that is exist in this place. The team is exceptionally friendly and well trained. The service is extraordinarily rapid. Most important, the food you get is excellent. I ate there many times and I was always joyful. The expense is fair. I highly recommend this place to my friends and family.

AMAZING find! Tucked just off the downtown Keene square this restaurant is really a little grocery store full of vegan and vegetarian options. Prices are reasonable too which was an extra surprise given the quality and amount of food given. This is a new regular stop for me and my family.

Two days ago was the first time we came to that good restaurant. But It is no doubt not the last time. We passed a splendid evening with the good service, with the great cuisine and wine and with the comfortable charge. We will no doubt come back again.

Only complaint is that I wish they were open on Friday and Saturday! Huge selection of amazing vegan food. Plant based or not, this is a must try. Extremely nice and humble staff with amazing cooking abilities behind the scenes. Get there when you have the chance!

We have been coming here for almost 5 years- the food and customer service are consistently world class. Their food is so fresh! Go on pizza Wednesday’s and you will be delighted. Go any other day and you certainly wont regret it. Enjoy👌🏻

I love Country Life and Peggy! I should be there now! The food is vegan and delicious! A healthy place to eat! Thank you so much! ♥️

The vegan pizza is to die for! The cheese is almost like a ricotta and loaded with veggies. Weve eaten here before and the food is always so good.

I am not sure how anyone that is at least open minded about plant based eating could give Country Life anything less than 5 stars. The hot bar, salad bar and deserts, are all amazing. The owners are always courteous and helpful. If you are lucky enough to see one of their pizzas in the freezer when you are there, dont pass on it. In my opinion, it sets the gold standard for vegan pizza.

For me this is the best restaurant in northern New England. They have both wonderful salad and hot bars which change daily. Likewise two soups and a desert bar. All is self-serve, so that you can enjoy a meal taking on as much time as you have - and/or - take-out.

Great restaurant for those trying to stick to the vegan diet. Buffet had plenty of great options.

Excellent food paired with unsurpassed customer service is rare. This place is that gem- I am a regular and absolutely love it here. Country Life is also an awesome place for learning- not to mention all the great items in their store. Thank you Peggy and team for all that you do!

I have enjoyed healthful totally deliciousMeals and takeout foods for at least 10 years.I have personal favoritesLove love the soupsThe dressings and salad baradd so much enjoymentThe Sunday Brunch is so well plannedand presented.

This place is the best place to eat in town! So healthy, great options. Try the link salad dressing. Its the frign best!!

Super vegan selections with no guessing - all vegan! Very yummy, fresh, variety and more covering desserts as well. Great find and lovely women running establishment. Will be back for sure!

Salad bar is always fresh and festive with a large variety of veggies to make your salad a work of art. Hot bar is delicious also with a vegetarian cuisine.Community cooking classes are also offered once a month to learn more visit for a lunch. PS the desserts are scrumptious also. Enjoy and be inspired.A must stop for me when Im visiting the area. Exceptional quality foods.

Delicious vegan health food served by lovely people. Bulk spices and dry pantry items for a great price. Plus, they host community education events often. Great place.

The best restaurant I have ever eaten! (From a vegan perspective) the food was so fresh and they had a huge variety of healthy food. The service was awesome! Super kind ladies!

A variety of choices and they were well prepared. They also were very helpful in showing me how to make the most of my experience. I was a newbie but look forward to being a repeat diner.

This is a cute little place in downtown Keene. They had a hot and a cold bar with tasty and very, very fresh vegetarian and vegan food. Large choice of items. I think vegetarian restaurants have to work harder by providing excellent food to draw a larger clientele. The lady who ran this place and did most of the cooking is a very dedicated soul, friendly and helpful. Felt so healthy after this meal. It rare and ideal stop on a long drive through many food deserts. BRAVO!

After looking at all those great food photos at 10.30 pm tonight, Im getting hungry again! Dont get anxious about the per pound food prices.........because this is dense, real food, a little goes a LONG ways. After eating my salad/soup then entrees, Ive just never made it to those yummy looking deserts! Except when I celebrated my birthday at the restaurant four weeks ago with a in-house made delicious carrot cake including some vegan ice cream with friends.............All loved every bite! it was such a huge cake, I still have some in the freezer to attack soon!dont just take my word for it..........Eating is Believing! Thanks again Peggy and team, Gary Davis.

I love Country Life. The food is delicious, if youre on a budget you can small portions. I never have to worry that anything isnt vegan. Peggy is an amazing cook and I always leave happy!

This spot is excellent! Good pricing, considerable dishes and the staff are always nice.

Wonderful vegan fare. healthy and delicious!! We are so lucky to have this gem in the area.

This place is amazing as was the food! The employees just make this place a 5 star place to eat! Thank you so much!

Hot food bar is always is always very good. Salad bar is amazing. Really fresh and organic. Great variety and super tasty salad dressings.

Delicious food which happens to be vegan. Fresh and flavorful hot items, plus an incredible salad bar. I cant wait to come back and try the desserts!

Fantastic, delicious, healthy food! Sometimes it is hard to find real food when you are traveling, so this was a great win and just around the corner from the hotel. Oh and the value is tremendous. Why would you eat anywhere else?

Very cute location and an extremely unique take on comfort food. I will be coming here again! Ideal for a quick bite.

I love this place. The food is terrific, and Peggy is a wonderful person.

So happy to finally make it in here. Very friendly and helpful and the food was absolutely delicious❤️

Great food! Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Yum!

A vegan jewel, I drive 40 minutes past several restaurants to eat at their delicious, creative and colorful buffet. Its worth the trip!

The letter the owner posted was clearly ignorant and I’m glad not to ever eat here again.

Best vegan food! Friendly service, lots of knowledge of quality ingredients. This is our very favorite place!! Very supportive to the local community.

Great staff! My favorite vegan place to eat! The food is amazing! 🥦🥕🌽

We attended a seminar here. Neither of us are vegetarian but we enjoyed the salad bar and trying the hot buffet. I was a little more adventurous than my husband, and I would come again. Hubby wont, though.

Delicious wholesome food prepared and served with love, care to detail, and a level of cleanliness not often found, hardily recommend.

Very good food and very fresh. Expected a little more for the price.

Love the dood, the people, and the costomer service

Organic, delicious and vegan. Best ever!

Amazing food. Great service! Prices are great also.

Discovered this delicious and delightful vegetarian restaurant while heading for the parking garage...tried a sample of lentil soup but then opted for the buffet. Biggest surprise was the barbque tofu! 😋 Not so much in the way of food store but cheerful seating and extremely well kept by friendly staff.

The Best of the Best. You cant beat the taste & quality of the food. Except maybe with the owner and her staff. Hi Peggy!

This it the only vegan buffet Ive found in the Northeast and the food is all delicious. Tofu scramble, lasagna, crab cakes, apple pie, key lime pie, cookies, cupcakes, GF pancakes. It was my girlfriends birthday when I visited, I mentioned it offhand while talking with the restaurant owner and she ended up giving my girlfriend a cookbook as a gift!

Love this place! The food is always spectacular and my family loves it too!

Wonderful vegetarian food, with a cozy, pleasant atmosphere. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

Mmmmmmm!

Excellent find on my short trip to Keene! The food was tasty, service friendly and price unbeatable.

Yummy vegan food and cashew ice cream! The staff was so kind!

This is a relaxed friendly place to get affordable wholesome healthy delicious food.

One of my favorite plant-based diet resturant.

Beautiful atmosphere, lovely people, great good clean healthy food. Yummy 😊

Delicious food in a warm and friendly atmosphere.

Best vegan prepared food in the region, period. They are open for lunch Sunday-Thursday and for dinner Thursdays. Blows away the less-than natural and expensive Keene Coop!

Very tasty vegan buffet for all to enjoy (not just vegans). Service is great and friendly.
