Recomendable

Muy bueno, mejor de lo que puedes esperar para el sitio en el que está (muy turístico). De todo lo que hemos pedido, lo mejor la berenjena. Un pelín sosa la comida pero rica de sabor. Platos enormes, servicio rápido. Tiene terraza también y bastante sitio en general. De precio hemos salido a 11€ por persona que está muy bien, y más estando en pleno centro y raciones tan grandes. Para mi gusto pocas opciones veganas y algunas cositas que se podrían mejorar, por ejemplo el arroz ni fu ni fa, pero valorando en general, volvería y lo recomendaría.

Pros: Raciones enormes, Buen precio, Bien situado

Good spot for lunch in the city.

We stopped for lunch and had a nice table on the terrace. Within 15 mins of it opening, every table on the terrace was taken. Lovely atmosphere, and it’s beside other restaurant terraces too so there is a good buzz of people and there was some entertainment in the square to watch. Service was friendly, quick and efficient. Good choice of vegan main courses.

Pros: Good selection of vegan main dishes. , Fast & efficient so good for a quick lunch., Value for money.

Cons: Only one vegan dessert.

Could have been better

Nice location and fairly decent menu, however I found the food was quite plain and simple and not very exciting. I think they could put a little more effort into the meals. Also be careful when paying with card as I believe my credit card was skimmed at the place.

Tasty food, quick & excellent service

We’ve been there twice now. They have a daily 3-course dessert menu for €11. All the food we tried was very well seasoned, had a homely feel and the portions were just right size wise. Service was very friendly and fast. Would return again and again! Many vegan options, very healthy menu.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Great, friendly service, Excellent location

Great range of dishes

Nice restaurant near the Alcazabar with a nice selection of vegan plates. It was a great pleasure to find a delicious Seitan dish as not many places sell it.

Vegan options available

Good price and a good selection of vegan food. The food was nice but nothing fancy or spectacular. Just a minor detail: the service seemed a bit inconsistent. Some tables got served bread with their soup but we did not.
Other than that, still worth a visit!

Fun, great location, good food

Updated in 2021:

Great food at a great location in Malaga's city center. Located on Plaza De La Merced, Canadu has quality food at a reasonable price. It has become my go-to restaurant in the city center, we ate there several times this summer as we enjoy the outdoor dining next to the park (indoor tables are available too).

I went back and forth between the burger and the eggplant, both vegan and both delicious. The burger is one of the best I've had anywhere and the eggplant dish is second to none. We also had the chocolate cake for dessert (one slice is plenty for two people) and the Patatas Bravas as an appetizer.

I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

Comida vegetariana en pleno centro.

He ido 2 veces a cenar y siempre me he ido muy satisfecho. Recomiendo compartir el plato que tiene un poquito de todo, es lo más rentable sin duda. Las patatas con mojo picón también están muy ricas.

Pros: Cercanía al centro, Precio adecuado

Cons: Hace calor en el interior durante el verano

Increíble seitan

Probamos el seitan y nos encantó, se nota que el seitan es casero y esta súper bien hecho, el restaurante estáuy bien situado, tiene terracita y los camareros fueron muy amables.

Pros: Seitan

Cons: Nada

Worst burger I’ve ever had

I barely write any bad reviews, but this burger was honestly so bad. You could choose vegan cheddar and it looked really nice but we think it was just pumpkin sauce that looked yellow and wasn’t nice at all. And the patty (lentil) was somehow bitter and tasteless.
Have to say that the vegan quesadilla was very good though. But pricey.

Pros: Nice vegan quesadilla , Cheap fresh orange juice (2,25€)

Cons: Really really bad burger , Called it vegan cheddar but was pumpkin sauce , Not cheap (burger 10/11€, quesadilla 7,50€)

Ha perdido calidad Junio 2020

Este es un restaurante que frecuento hace unos 10 años y la semana pasada fuimos a comer y ambos platos pedidos han bajado mucho la calidad y la presentación. Además me cobraron unos poquitos de pan que no sirvieron. Sufrí una gran decepción. Escribo este comentario porque tengo en estima este restaurante y no deben bajar la guardia. Son malos tiempos para tod@s.

Great place to sit and watch the world go by

Such a nice spot to sit and eat. There’s plenty of vegan things on the menu and they also state gluten free. It was really good value for money and we came away very full and satisfied. The owner was lovely and really looked after his customers.

Pros: Menu clearly states vegan and gluten free , Good service , Very well priced for big portions

Okay

Perfectly located in a beautiful square in the historical center, granted with a lovely terrace. The food is okay, and the perfect place if you want to dine in the heart of the city.

The burger is nice!

Pros: Location

Cons: Animal products

Worst in town

After going to many vegan and vegetarian places in malaga this is one of the worst. It is the one with less options to eat and prices that are not with the quality and type of food just because they are in a centralized place

Okay

I visited on a Friday in October. They offered two types of lunchmenu's: one for €11 with a starter, two mains and a dessert and one for €10 with only one main. The food was okay. I had a salad with marmelade which was just some lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber and strawberry marmelade, vegetable soup that lacked flavour, vegetarian paella and a pudding for dessert. Good value for the money, but not that special.

Pros: cheap lunch menu's, big portions

Cons: lacked some flavour

All a bit...sweet

We went to Canadu after lots of deliberation (so many vegan options) and it was a little bit odd.
I had the seitan with cream sauce which wasn’t creamy, more like a gravy that was quite sweet. My mum had the stuffed aubergine with bechamel which was also sweet. The whole thing was a bit bizarre, like someone who isn’t vegan cooking for vegans. Seitan texture was ok, quite soft. Huge huge portions and quite reasonably priced but
Service a bit slow, tried paying for about 15 minutes before having to go in and find him.
Lovely location in the square but wouldn’t recommend.

Pros: Nice location

Cons: Oversweet

Best vegan restaurant in the area

Very good vegan/vegetarian restaurant in short walking distance from downtown Malaga. Good prices and good vegan selection to choose from, including faux meat (vital wheat gluten). Options clearly marked vegan or vegetarian. Their homemade salad dressing was very tasty. And of course don't forget the sangria!

Pros: Lots of good legitimate vegan options

Cons: They have limited hours (close earlier/open later)

Great location, great place, great food

Really nicely located with great and affordable food options. Also nice lunch menus :). However, as I enjoyed the Canadu salad so much, I went again and got the exact same thing! I have tried some bits from my friends, however, and all dishes were really good. The second time we came the pineapple was forgotten in my salad so I got a large extra bowl. Service is always really good :)

Pros: Nice location, Cheap, Great food and choices

Good vegan and gluten free restaurant

The menu is good as it shows vegan and gluten free options. Lots of options to choose from. Dishes are big and filling but still healthy. You won't leave hungry! No pizzas which is a plus for me but just to let you know.

Pros: Gluten free

Veg But Includes Egg

Beautiful food court and good tasting food. Vegans be careful many dishes with egg and dairy. We enjoyed our dinner here.

Pros: Good tasting food, Lovely food court appeal, Close to other interesting sites

Cons: Has egg dishes
