According Adrienne Mitchel, the author of the article, the popularity of ghost kitchens is waning but some ghost kitchens, like Sunny's Food Hub in Sunnyvale are thriving with 28 new restaurants added to the area. Located at 1026 W. Evelyn Ave. in Sunnyvale, the Food Hub's tenants including Craft Roots Vegan Kitchen are citing low start-up costs as an attractive way to test out a new market and reach new customers. 

On September 29, 2024 7x7 Magazine published an article about a "little city boasts an impressive tally of wineries and trails that make for an easy weekend getaway." That's our community, here in Morgan Hill.

What a great experience for Craft Roots to be showcased on Bay Area TV. This episode aired just weeks after we were voted one of the top 100 best restaurants in the Bay Area.

The Morgan Hill Times has published their annual "Best of" poll results and Craft Roots has taken 11 honors in the 2021 edition. Craft Roots is now the newly crowned Best Restaurant in Morgan Hill amid some tough competition. Craft Roots has also been named Best Kid Friendly Restaurant, Best Family Restaurant, and Best Pet Friendly Restaurant (pets are family afterall!) We also can lay claim to the Best Cocktail, Best COVID Cocktail to go, the Best COVID Curbside Food To-Go, and the Best Server - that's Katie! If that weren't enough to brag about, we also have the Best French Fries, Best Locally-Made Food Product, and last but our favorite, Best Vegetarian Food! Thank you Morgan Hillians for rooting for us (ha!) and all who voted! 

"​If you're looking for a plant-based meal that still feels hearty, Craft Roots is the place for you. Based in Morgan Hill, Craft Roots is a family-run vegan bar and grill with an artisanal touch. The menu features classic greens like the strawberry summer salad with pickled beets, toasted almonds, vegan feta and strawberry vinaigrette as well as more substantial offerings like the chili with pumpkin seeds, chili lime corn nuts and cashew-lime crema. Diners can also enjoy sips from local breweries and vegan mixed drinks, such as the lychee martini, from their extensive craft beer and cocktail menu. Craft Roots also aims to source their healthy whole foods locally—they partner with organic farms in the area and rotate their menu seasonally for fresh and evolving options."
