Lovely location, good juice decent food options - Edit
Food was good but tasted a bit bland in my opinion and the price is higher than in other places. I guess the location matter too, it’s directly on the beach, amazing view of the ocean, local boats and trees.

Really nice location at the beach🏝️ - Edit
The location is a dream but the staff isn’t really friendly. We went here twice, tried the pad thai, vegan noodles with (no) meatballs, soft tacos with jackfruit an drunk noodles. It all was kinda mid - not really bad but also not really good… Pretty sad because it‘s the only completely vegetarian restaurant on the island and definitely has lots of potential!

Best vegan options on the island - Edit
I came here a few times during my stay. I had the tofu satay, bruschetta, falafel wrap, and a really good cappuccino. Beautiful location right on the beach.

Okay - Edit
Had the vegan breakfast with scrambled tofu. Didn’t taste anything. Expensive for what it is. Didn’t try any of the Thai dishes though. Nice view.

Amazing place - Edit
Amazing place with delicious food at an affordable price. It's right in front of Sunrise Beach, so the view alone is breathtaking. Pleasant atmosphere and friendly staff. I would return many more times if I had the opportunity.

Delicous food, beautiful setting - Edit
we came a couple of times, all the food was delicious, especially the Tom yum noodle soup and cashew tofu stir fry. It’s on the beach so a beautiful setting, definitely would recommend, especially as the only veggie place on the island. Be aware it is only open until 6.30 in the evening.

Beautiful - Edit
Food, setting, staff all wonderful. What a lovely gem that you could easily spend all day at. Seems like a little community hub with great vibes. Had breakfast and coffee but would eat there time and again if I could.

Beautiful location, good food, large sizes, cheap! - Edit
Right on the beach with nice views while sand mixes between your toes. Tasty food and smoothies and a relaxed place. Closes a bit early, so come while the sun is up if you want dinner!

So lecker! Lohnt sich sehr - Edit
Tofubälle sind ein Tgaum! Die Tom Yam Suppe war sehr lecker und schön scharf sauer. Kaffee und Getränken waren auch gut! Es gibt Soja- und Hafermilch. Die Satayspieße waren mit sehr leckerem Tofu. Danach haben wir noch vor dem Restaurant geschnorchelt.

Fresh and delicious - Edit
We came here 3 times during our short stay on Koh Lipe, as it was definitely the best place for vegans to eat on the island. We enjoyed the mango salad, massaman, garlic and pepper tofu, veggie fritters, scrambled tofu & toast and breakfast tacos. All the food was fresh and delicious. Great amount of scrambled tofu with the breakfasts too! The price point is not cheap but reasonable for the beautiful beachfront view. We left each time feeling satisfied 😊 PS. You can pay by Wise bank transfer which was really handy if you wish to save your cash for cash-only places and want to avoid 3% surcharge on card transactions!

Such a gem! - Edit
This was my go to restaurant on Koh Lipe. Their smoothiebowls were nice with the best view. It’s a really nice place to chill for a while. I also did yoga here one time which was really good and again, the view!! One time I had the Pulled jackfruit taco and that was just heaven. You have to try yourself!🤤
Read more4 stars, because the coconut milk taste in the smoothiebowls was too much and their staff is not really friendly. I didn’t feel welcome coming here unfortunately.

Loved this place and came back a few times on our trip to Koh lipe. Loved everything we got, especially the happy hour pina coladas. They also had good coffee and a cute swing that lots of people were taking pictures on.

Tapas style lunch - Edit
We selected three small plates, a bruschetta dish, fresh summer rolls and hummus with vegetables to dip. We also had an oat milk iced coffee. Good sized portions and all very tasty! Would recommend for lunch, as I think they shut early in the evening.

Love this spot! - Edit
Of all the places on Ko Lipe, this one is definitely my favorite. The food is always so fresh and really filling (huge portions!) I had the mango salad, tofu bowl, and falafel bowl and my partner had the falafel tacos and jackfruit tacos. I will say that the falafel bowl was the most food out of everything. The tacos are hugeee and so are the bowls. The mango bowl is probably the least filling though bc it doesn’t have rice or anything besides cabbage. The views on the property are so stunning and it’s really nice to just relax here.
Read moreI wouldn’t particularly recommend the peanut butter banana shake as it was supeeeer watery. The flavor was there, it just wasn’t very thick.
Pros: Beautiful views, Delicious, nutritious food , good price

Chill lunch spot - Edit
Really nice menu with a variety of options. Loved the oreo shake and the tofu satay bowl. The Falafel salad was a little overdressed in my opinion, still enjoyable especially if you're after a healthy option but I would ask for the dressing on the side. I had the jackfruit tacos as well which were tasty as well. Also great to see reusable napkins!

Some of the best food on the island! - Edit
The standard of food at Bennies far outweighs the beach-bar environment. The green and yellow curries, for example, are as good as the very best restaurants on the island (and beyond)!
