Bali Maitreya Cafe

Ich habe nirgendwo auf Nusa Lembongan so viele Fliegen gesehen wie hier, was den Aufenthalt nicht gerade angenehm machte. Das Essen ist preislich und geschmacklich in Ordnung, aber nichts besonderes.

we are on nusa lembongan for two weeks and we have been eating here at least 2x a day. it is the only vegan restaurant on the island but the food is also absolutely delicious and the staff are friendly and very accommodating. the owner is vegan so have no worries! they have lots of gluten free options. the prices are very fair and inexpensive. i have posted lots of food photos and favorites include: mango muesli fruit bowl, mango juice, cacao treat, vegetable noodle soup, tempe curry (the curry is fantastic!!), vegetable fried noodles. everything we have ordered is delicious and we have almost gone thru the whole menu and the menu is large. they also have breakfast (smoothie bowls) all day so its raw vegan friendly. i highly recommend this place.

If you go for a morning porridge, keep your eye out for extra non-vegan protein in form of spiders.
Found a spider and it was not itsy bitsy, it was a propper 2 - 3 cm diameter hairy legged poor thing drowned in the porridge.

Not even a sorry from the cook, he ask if it was more likely the spider crawled in while we where eating :/

At least we didn't have to pay for the half eaten porrige

This place shares its premises with the Green warung (not vegan), but there is a whole vegan card with lot's of options. A lot of them are with mock meat, but there is also a good selection without them. We ate here several times and really enjoyed the place.

We did spend 2 weeks on the island and it was by far the best restaurant where we ate. We are both Vegan and it was hard to find a place to eat. We did try other places that said serve vegan food and one of them even served us bacon...
The owner of Bali Maitreya and Green Garden Restaurant is vegan so they completely understand what we can eat or not and that was great!
They also serve great breakfast and delicious smoothie bowl and I can't recommend enough the Energy bowl!

the place have two menu's one with meat and the other "vegan" but be careful cause they can make the milkshakes with milk, you choose soy or cow's milk. the avocado salad was 4 lettuce leaves with 1/4 avocado and two cherry tomatoes, when i saw that i was amazed. so my advice don't choose that one better the green salad or any other plate.

A great little eatery on Nusa Lembongan. As far as I'm aware it's the only totally veg restaurant on the island. There is a great range of breakfast options, juices and Balinese food. Bali Maitreaya Vegan Cafe also has some mock meat dishes including burgers. I ate here about 5 times while staying in Nusa Lembongan and the food was always great. The prices are also really good, a vegan Nasi Goreng only costs 25k. They have free wi fi also.
It's on a very bumpy road just off the main drag in Nusa Lembongan, there's signs on the main road pointing to the cafe. Another restaurant called "Green Garden Warung" also operates out of the same premises and there is a yoga studio out the back.
