Beautiful food

Ate here twice, our hostel was literally upstairs so location couldn’t have been more convenient for us.

The food was excellent - full of flavour, healthy, colourful, and they put a lot of effort into the presentation. At 10:30am we were also able to order from the regular main menu and not only the breakfast menu, which I appreciated because I had a craving for a banh mi - and it was sooooo good.

Can’t believe such a spot exists in a small town like Salento, highly recommend!

Nice to have…

A plant based restaurant in such a small town. Food is pretty good considering. Magnum ice-cream was a bit of a letdown.

Breakdast & Lunch 🥗

The only full vegan restaurant in town needed to be tested. First one to be open I had Tofu scramble (huevos revueltos veganos) and the cinnamon roll.
Both came nicely presented, the little extra pays off! They bring you salt, pepper and chili flakes to season it the way you want it. After a coffee tour I had to come back to try the Vietnamese Summerrolls and the Sopa Thai. The Summer Rolls were delicioso but I like it with a mint leaf better for the extra Kick. It came with a rich creamy tasty sauce. The sopa Thai was more a curry with a creamy sauce but balanced well with some spicy kick! The staff is extremely friendly and helpful! Will come back! 5 estrellas!

Delicioso - Cocina con amor

Se nota que el lugar ha sido construido con pasión, en sus platos se puede saborear esto; además tratan a su gente con amor y eso se refleja en la calidez del personal y su sonrisa al atenderte. En su menú cuentan la historia de como lo que comenzó siendo un sueño se ha hecho realidad, de verdad los platos son deliciosos, mi plato favorito fue el curry y tienen un rollo de canela con helado de açai, recomendadísimo 🤤 además los precios son muy razonables, tienen porciones balanceadas y la comida se ve fresca, además es delicioso y si tienes alergias como en mi caso, ellos están dispuestos a ayudarte y tienen opciones adicionales en su menú para que puedas consumirlo sin miedo; en Salento encuentras lugares que te cobran el doble y aquí los precios son justos además nos contaban que todas las personas que trabajan allí tienen acceso a un salario justo que incluye salud, pensión y otros beneficios que desafortunadamente no todo el mundo en Colombia puede tener. Recomendadísimo!

Pros: Comida deliciosa y Pet friendly, Precios justos, Porciones grandes

Más bonito que rico

Platos bonitos, lugar con encanto y precios algo más elevados que la media. El ambiente es principalmente de turistas europeos, por lo que si se busca una experiencia “local” no es el sitio.
Acudí porque me apetecía comer algo sano y nutritivo, y pedí el Budda Bowl. Estaba bien, simplemente (un poco salado, quizás por demasiada salsa de soja?).
Me hubiera gustado probar sus bowls de fruta de desayuno, que creo que puede ser su fuerte.

Disappointing food

I was really excited to visit coco bowl however was very disappointed. We ordered the spring rolls, bao buns, gyozas and banh mí all lacked in flavour and needed improvement. However Based on the reviews we may have ordered badly as the other dishes do look good and the restaurant was nice and had very good service. However I expected a lot better from a highly reviewed all vegan restaurant

Pros: All vegan , Loved the blueberry lemonade

Cons: Food lacked flavour

Hi Thomas! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback. We're truly sorry to hear that your visit didn’t meet expectations, especially when you came in with high hopes after reading great reviews. What you described is definitely not the experience we aim to deliver. We're currently training new kitchen staff, and it's possible that this may have contributed to some inconsistency in the flavors you experienced. That said, it's not an excuse, this isn’t the norm for us, and we’re taking your comment seriously.

We’ve already spoken with our team to review the specific dishes you mentioned and ensure everything is prepared with the care and flavor we’re known for. We’ll be extra attentive moving forward to make sure our standards are met every single time.

We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the blueberry lemonade and the service, thank you for highlighting that. We’d really love to have the opportunity to welcome you back and give you the full Coco Bowl experience as it should be.

Amazing

I went here 5 days in a row. Perfect little restaurant with wide selection. The cinnamon roll is PERFECT! The pad Thai was a bit disappointing, I think main dishes are not their area of expertise. Really good to get some work done on your laptop too. Cute dogs!

Thank you so much for visiting us — five days in a row! That truly means a lot to us 💛 We're so happy you enjoyed our space, the cinnamon roll (a favorite of ours too!), and the cozy vibe for getting work done. And yes — we love our regular pup visitors too 🐶

We really appreciate your honesty about the Pad Thai. It’s super helpful feedback, and we’ll take a closer look at the recipe to see how we can bring it up to the level of our other dishes.

Hope to welcome you back again soon, whether it's for another cinnamon roll, a chill work session, or just some dog-watching :)

Tegenvaller

Allereerst mocht ik bestellen via mijn telefoon. Dit werkte niet. Ik bestelde de Thaise soep… hier zat geen enkele smaak aan. Wat een tegenvaller, na alle lovende recensies. Mijn vriend had stir fried bowl, deze was ook echt niet zo lekker. Jammer , we hadden er echt zin in!

JuanJaramillo

We're truly sorry to hear about your experience and thank you for taking the time to share it. We completely understand your disappointment, especially after reading positive reviews and coming in with high hopes.

After receiving your comment, we specifically reviewed the Thai soup that was served that day and you were absolutely right — it was lacking flavor. We've spoken with our kitchen team to make sure the recipe is followed strictly every time. We recently had a new team member in training, and unfortunately, this was a mistake on their part.

We sincerely apologize and hope you’ll consider giving us another chance in the future. We’d love to make it up to you and show you the experience we aim to deliver every day at Coco Bowl. 💚

Really cute & delicious place

The food options are really hard to choose from since everything sounds and looks super delicious! I went for the pad Thai and it was a great choice. The portion could have been a little bit bigger though. The food was ready within just a few minutes and the service was very nice.

Pros: Ambiente , Quick preparation of food, Delicious food

Cons: Portion was a bit small, Gyozas were a bit hard

Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re so happy you enjoyed the Pad Thai and the overall experience — and we know how hard it is to choose with so many yummy options 😄

We appreciate your feedback about the gyozas, the texture can sometimes be affected by temperature or cooking time, so we’ll definitely review this with our kitchen team. Thanks again for helping us improve — we hope to see you again soon! 💚

Cute vegan place, great bowls

We went to Coco Bowl for our first lunch in Salento and were pretty content. I had a Poke bowl and my partner had Pad Thai but he thought the portion was a bit small. I loved my poke bowl, beautifully spiralled fresh veggies, nice sauce and nourishing. The restaurant is on the main touristy street of Salento and at the bottom of a hill where you can go for an amazing sunset.
I also tried the Coconut Dalgona drink which was super interesting and really tasty.
Would definitely recommend it, but if you eat a lot you may need a main with something extra.
Also I love being able to get something like a healthy buddha bowl or poke bowl in Colombia. It's amazing

Pros: Fresh bowls , Nice location

Cons: Slightly small portion

JuanJaramillo

07 Apr 2025

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re really happy you enjoyed the poke bowl, our location, and the Coconut Dalgona — it’s one of our favorite creations too! 😊

We’ve taken note of the feedback about portion sizes. While our bowls were already designed to be balanced and nourishing, we’ve reviewed our plating and are now serving slightly larger portions to make the experience even more satisfying.

We truly appreciate your words and hope to welcome you again for another bowl of goodness in Salento! 🌿✨

Good

Food is delicious, nice staff. Cosy atmosphere. It's a bit more on the expensive side but it is good quality. Variety of options on the menu, dishes that are typically hard to find in Colombia. The only thing I would say is that the portions were quite small. I left still feeling hungry, and for that I would take away a star.

Thank you for your feedback! We’re sorry to hear that the portion size didn’t meet your expectations, and we truly appreciate you bringing it to our attention. After reviewing with our kitchen staff, we found that one of our new team members had been incorrectly plating some dishes, which led to smaller portions. We've already corrected this, and we’re confident it won’t happen again. Thanks again for letting us know! 🌿😊

Loved this place! Went every day of our trip!

Highly recommend this place, the food is delicious and there’s so many good options! We ate there four days in a row. My favourite dishes were the porridge and the tofu burger 👌🏻😍. The scrambled tofu was also really tasty!
And the cappuccino was good!
I did really like the Acai bowls too - tbh absolutely everything we had was fab.

Pros: Fully vegan , Tasty and variety of food , Really friendly staff

Amazing vegan jem in Salento

Incredible restaurant with a huge menu. It is owned by backpackers that travelled through Thailand, so they have quite a few Asian dishes as well. The food was really amazing the people there very friendly. They don't have so many tables but there are also some seats outside.

Fresh and yummy!

We ate here the most on our trip, mostly because we were craving none fried food. The owner was lovely and we lvoed gis sotey of how the restaurant came about. Was the first time we actually had a frothy latte in colombia! The smoothie bowls are delicious, the toasts arent toasted but still good. The main Asian dishes are more asian inspired vs authentic flavors but nevertheless good. Our fav was the Thai burger!

Favorite place in Salento

I ate there everyday In Salento. Everything is vegan, super fresh and they had many many things on the menu! I didn't have the time to try them all. Lots of fresh, healthy options. I don't know where they source their vegetables, but they are the freshest thing on earth.

The only thing I didn't like was the cinnamon roll, which I found dry.

Pros: Fresh ingredients , Many options

Best vegan restaurant in the area!

Their Thai fusion food is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. It was incredibly delicious, and the even got a candle on my cheesecake to celebrate my birthday.

Pros: The menu is varied, Super tasty food, Great service

Cons: They are so far away from Pereira:( , A bit on the expensive side, but worth it

It's a match 💚

Like the history of the restaurant - with the owner falling in love with the Thai cuisine during traveling. Deciding to open a totally vegan restaurant with Thai food in the rural Columbia 🌍

☕ Cappuccino which was great. They offer almond milk. Would love if they'd add Avena (oat) since it's even available to buy in the local D1 Supermarket.

🥑 Avocado Toast with Cream Cheese
Homemade cream cheese. Taste was great - they could add a bit more cream cheese though and the portion size is not so big but gets ok for the price.

🍛 Yellow Curry
Wished it to be more creamy and a bigger portion.

Nice kind of new seating outside with a view on the busy pathway. Great place to rest and enjoy.

Overall very nice restaurant! 🌱
