This place has super tasty breakfast foods & coffee. I also love the ambiance in this place, it manages to be both a nice brunch spot to take your parents and a chill nightlife hangout place.

Met the owner at Willamette Heritage Center at his cafe there ( which was very nice) and he let us know about his place in downtown Salem. We went and LOVED it. Great service, cozy atmosphere and great food. Don't let the front appearance fool you. Real gem inside. Have visited Salem for three years and this will be my go to going forward. Michele is awesome at the downtown location but all of the staff was great!!!

Would recommend! Our food was all very good (elk burger, taproot tacos, carnival smoothie) and the servers were friendly. Its also so cute in the restaurant! I love the lanterns, the music, the organized chaos feel. I'm coming back!

I was pleasantly surprised by this place. I highly recommend it. The bloody Mary was delicious, the atmosphere fun, and everyone fog looked amazing.

Elkhorn burger was amazing. Fun atmosphere and clean. Service was on par. Would definitely eat here again

FIRE FOOD!!! Got the taproot tacos with veggie crumble and it was so good!!! Pretty fast service and cool ambiance Bestie got desert bowl and it SLAYED BOOTS Other bestie got chipotle ranch tacos with chicken and IT ATE AND LEFT NO CRUMBS (except there were some crumbs left on the plate)

Very healthy and vegan friendly (if you want it). All the food is delicious and savory made from scratch. Had the pesto chicken sandwich and it was superb. Açaí bowl was also delicious and any drink out of this world. Also have a dog menu and caters to dogs.

Had a brilliant time at Taproot Lounge and Cafe a few weeks ago We walked in and were immediately greeted & seated! Loved the vibe of the decor which left us all feeling comfortable and relaxed! Superb service, delectable drinks (Mary enjoyed a Jungle Love while Nanci happily imbibed a Tequila Mockingbird) plus some terrific tapas including their not to miss Brussel sprouts, fries with honey mustard & something we made up- Guac Tots !! An absolute on the #mangiamammascale

Such a cute & cool place. We stopped in for breakfast and the food was fabulous. So fresh, light and delicious. Server was very friendly and just had a great breakfast. I had the Farmer's Wife and hubby had the biscuits & gravy. Have you ever had biscuits & gravy that were light & sauced with a light gravy? This is the place. It was so good. Including fresh spinach & a cup of fresh strawberries & blueberries. Highly recommend.

Highly recommend acai bowl. It was generous servings and really good. Like the booth seating area. Would love to come back.
