The Vegan Cheese Lady Cafe

The Vegan Cheese Lady Cafe, located at 605 Main Street in downtown Lafayette, Indiana, is a cafe owned by Julieann Davis that specializes in artisan vegan cheeses and plant-based dishes made entirely from scratch. The business started as a vendor at farmer’s markets and festivals before expanding to open its brick-and-mortar cafe in March 2024, and now features a rotating gallery of local art alongside a full menu that includes vegan meats, wraps, sandwiches, appetizers, desserts, and local beverages. Davis’s mission is to provide vegans and vegetarians with flavorful, whole food options beyond traditional salads, using natural plant-based ingredients without preservatives while fostering community engagement through events and partnerships.
