Great location, great place, great food - Edit
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 :)

Good vegan and gluten free restaurant - Edit
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.

Lovely atmosphere - Edit
We had a very pleasant late lunch here. My meat eating boyfriend only had the thick chick pea soup as he'd had some 'fishy' food from the market mid morning but he said it was lovely and tasty. I had some apple croquettes to start and a tropical fruit salad afterwards. Lovely and tasty (I had without pink sauce but was offered an alternative dressing) with lots of fruit and veggies and a massive portion. We wanted a pudding but we had no room left !! We had our lunch accompanied by a pianist which was a wonderful added bonus. Very polite staff who spoke very English than me
Read morePros: Good value, Nice Choice, Piano playing

Unpleasant experience - Edit
I was by myself, several empty tables all the same size, I sit down at the one closer to the street to see some movement. When the waiter arrived he made me stand up and change table stating I could not sit there by myself and I had to sit at a table on the back. He did not ask me nicely if I could change, there was no reservation, simply forbid me from sitting there. Moments later a couple sat down at that table and there were no issues. Disgraceful behavior from staff and likely owner rules, as if dining alone is not boring enough, one has to sit on the back and leave the better-positioned tables (same size) for any couple turning up? They bring you packaged crackers which you will be charged for. Food was overall ok, not amazing not bad, but the overall experience was ruined, I had not eaten all day so I stayed but would definitely not return.

Very delicious natural food - Edit
All 3 dishes we got were very good. There were lots of choices for vegans (but limited desserts) and very nice selection of great drinks. Lovely atmosphere sitting outside and warm fire to sit by.

Oasis in a land of meat & dairy - Edit
Happy Cow came up trumps. So I was in Malaga on business with a group of Omni’s and our first meal the only thing I could have was an adapted salad as there wasn’t any choice that didn’t have some form of meat or dairy on it, so when it came to our evening meal our hosts let me pick. This place came up as close by and with good reviews so we gave it a try.
Read moreI was pleased to have choice, but impressed that it was not just me that enjoyed the meal, all my omni cohorts very much enjoyed it too.
Pros: Good choice for both vegetarians and vegans, Good service

Nice service but food wasn’t great. - Edit
Felt very dated. And just didn’t taste that exciting. Also they had a live pianist which didn’t really create a very relaxed atmosphere. Also make sure you specify vegan or veggie. As they mixed up our order. But we’re super kind to replace.
Read morePros: One of the few sole veggie places in Malaga , Reasonably priced, Convenient location
Cons: Food was whatever, Make sure you specify vegan or veggie, Out dated menu

tourist trap - Edit
The persian rice with mushroom and tofu tasted really good, the lasagne not so good and also overpriced. They forgot to bring us ordered drink but they didnt forget to charge us for it. Also they put on the table some crackers without saying anything and then it also appeared on the bill. It felt like a trap to get more money out of us.

Vegan friendly by the square - Edit
I ate the Escolapines de seitan a la nata y pimenta verde fresca (organic weat “meat” with cream (oat or coconut) served with home fries). Very delicious! The vegan items are clearly marked on the menu, and there were several vegan main dishes to choose from (and starters and dessert!)

Delicious! - Edit
I had the aubergine dish here with rice, vegetables, nuts, tomato sauce, salad, which was delicious! The aubergine was perfectly soft. For dessert I had the vegan brownie with chocolate sauce on top. Mmm, very chocolatey and the cake is almost like a sponge!
Read moreFrom the terrace you overview the Plaza, which is nice. Friendly staff and good service (but it wasn't that busy).

Nice location but food was a bit bland - Edit
Nice and vibrant location next to the Plaza de la Merced.
Read moreThey had a lot of nice options on the the menu, but unfortunately they were a bit bland (had the spagetti).
Also the staff was not very friendly, just doing what they had to do without any extra effort or a smile.

Basic at best - Edit
It is an affordable vegan friendly restaurant in a nice town square but the praise ends there. Waiter made us feel like an inconvenience, and to be fair to him, the place was completely understaffed.
Read moreFood was bland too, would it kill for some sauce, oil etc on the tables?

Good food - Edit
A handful of Vegan options. The restaurant was very full when we arrived and although the staff was very polite, the restaurant felt incredibly understaffed. We were told to wait although there were clearly a few tables empty. The mushroom croquetas were delicious and the risotto was good.

Good food and music! - Edit
I went to Cañadú for dinner and I had Spaghetti bolognese and mushroom stuffed aubergine with vegan cheese and brown rice! Both were really good! The waiter was super nice, he showed me which vegan cheese they had, and he let me add vegan pesto on top of the spaghetti when I asked for it. The icing on the cake was the live music with a pianist playing Ludovico Einaudi! Fantastic!

cheap and friendly stuff - Edit
We had patatas bravas (hot!) and the vegan burger and some ecological whine of the area. The whine was very good, the food was enough and although it is at the center (Plaza merced) we paid little. The stuff was very friendly! Recomendable
