Heyday Canning Company earns largely positive reviews for flavorful, ready-to-eat beans and soups that make fast, satisfying meals—standouts include Enchilada Black Beans, Harissa Lemon Chickpeas, Coconut Curry Chickpeas, and Tomato alla Vodka. Reviews also flag weaknesses: frequent complaints about high sodium, occasional blandness or overly rich/greasy sauces, inconsistent bean texture, and polarizing flavors; many praise the vibrant branding and variety, but some find certain variants too sweet or salty.

  • I really enjoyed the different flavor options that heyday offers! They were all very unique but still tasted good. I especially loved the curried chickpeas.

  • There was a spice added i did not particularly like but it did not stop me from eating it even straight out of the can. Did not have to warm up. I liked it but not sure I would buy it again.

  • I’ve tried the kimchi sesame beans and they’re awesome! Don’t let the kimchi intimidate you here. Worth a buy and try!

  • I sampled the Coconut Curry beans and the flavor was superb. The dish I paired them with was filling and felt authentic. However, for almost $5, I feel likeI could make these at home. Perhaps I will keep these around for a quick pantry staple.

  • Oh my god, so good! The flavor (lemon harissa) was amazing! The perfect thing for a quick meal-- all you need is some toast and bam! dinner is done!

  • I found the Heyday Beans at my local Sprouts for $3.79. I tried the enchilada beans and they were super delicious and flavorful! I used them to make quick and easy black bean tacos.

  • I got attracted by the beautiful packaging and the flavors I hadn't seen before, ended up getting the tomato alla vodka and the apricot glazed. I must admit I was expecting more - both felt just okay to me and my husband, and the flavors tasted somewhat artificial, in my opinion.

  • Loved this coconut corn chowder soup, was ready in minutes on the stovetop & was a comforting, satisfying dinner with a salad accompanying. Would not recommend reheating in the microwave without a cover.

  • I have tried several products from HeyDay and thoroughly enjoyed each one. The Enchilada Beans are a very versatile product; I've made a bean dip for chips and at home "Chipotle" style bowls. Since trying, I have purchased this item several times. Great flavor and consistency. I have also tried several of their vegan soups (Lentil and Corn) and can't wait to try more of their products.

  • I love the retro packaging. I tried the lentil butternut squash soup and while it was not my favorite, it was tasty enough and very nourishing. The soup seemed healthy and filling.

  • Love all the unique flavors!

    Love all the unique flavors! I've tried several and they're all delicious, and go well with all types of cuisines.

  • I wanted to love it but it’s just okay. For the amount of calories, there’s just not enough soup and I went for the coconut curry with chickpeas. The taste is okay but nothing out of the ordinary for the price I’ll try another flavor but I’m definitely not amazed.

  • This soup tasted healthy but in a good way. I had it with a homemade grilled cheese sandwich and it was the perfect combo. will buy again!

  • I decided to try the corn chowder and the noodle soup. I wasn't sure if a plant-based chowder would taste good, but I actually really enjoyed this soup!

  • Per can they are not the cheapest but they make up for that in flavor and how satisfying they are. I tried the mole chili soup which was filling and had a great flavor with the spiciness. I also had the butternut lentil stew which had a creamy texture and was also really satisfying and warming. Really hearty and nutritious. Great soups!

  • The flavor of this soup is fantastic! Makes a great meal by itself. It exceeded what I expected. I would buy this again and try other flavors.

  • Pricey at $6 a can. The flavor is there, but I feel like it's a bit too light for 5 stars. However, I enjoyed the unique flavors. The corn chowder was a solid soup, one I would buy again. I liked the lemon parm noodle soup, but I think it could have used a bit less lemon and more parm flavors.
