Yum!

Found this place by accident but it was a great find! It has outdoor seating in a cool shady little side street. The plantain chips are divine and the other bits we had were pretty good too. Service was slow but we didn’t mind. The African coffee was also incredible. Really enjoyed lunch here.

Pros: Taste, Location, Choice

Really nice people

I am always looking for restaurant in Umbria offering vegan options. Finally I had the chance to find out where Timbuktu was and we had dinner there with some friends. We’ve tried fried platano, African beer, and a main course of rice topped with nuts sauce.
Something different and ethnic. They have live music sometimes (not when we were there). A special mention to the super friendly staff.

Pros: Friendly staff, Money for value , Ethnic dishes

I love Timbu

Timbu is a lovely place, they have a fair choice of vegan foods, cocktails and hot drinks.
There are often music gigs and events, the staff is nice and kind and the place is located in the town centre, so it’s perfect for a break during your stroll to the city.
I recommend this place 100%

Pros: Interesting vegan options, Amazing atmosphere , Lovely staff

Cons: No cons

good food, low price, but not pure veg

The menu changes from time to time, depending on the mood of the cook, so you should ask which dishes are vegan/vegetarian (and which contain chicken).
When we have been there, we ate all 3 dishes that were vegan that day.
The food and the price are ok, the portions are small. The staff is very friendly.
The small street where the place is, is not so crowded as the other streets at the center of the city. This makes it more cosy.

Tasty African dishes

Very kind staff, who took time to translate the menu, gave some recommendations of spots to visit in the surrounding and spoke perfectly English.
The menu is quite limited but the food I got was very tasty, two of the items on the menu were not vegan - but everything is clearly labelled.

Great vegan lunch

In the meantime it’s more or less 100% vegan (they only have to be vegetarian option, rest all vegan). Lovely ethnic cafe with small dishes. Outdoor seating in a quiet alley in the historic center.
