A very nice vegan place

I visited here every time I was on vacation on Lanzarote. Maybe 10 times total. The menu is very vegan friendly. They have delicious coffees with oat milk. The staff is super friendly and they prepare vegan dishes separate from non-vegan dishes.

Pros: A lot of vegan sandwiches, Vegan coffees , Vegan sweets and savory snacks

Cons: Sometimes a longer waiting time

Tasty

We came here on the bus from Arrecife and trying this cafe was the main reason. I ordered a toast described with lots of ingredients but when it came it was just one piece of toast with a spread and cubes of vegan Greek cheese. So three of the mentioned ingredients must have been the ingredients of the spread (cashews, peppers and tomatoes). Maybe they were out of the basil. Having said that it was delicious and beautifully presented and left room for pudding. I had an apple pie. It was delicious. He had a burger and chips which was a proper meal. Also a tiffin. Quite a few vegan options. Very friendly staff. It was very breezy where we sat but there are tables inside too if that is an issue. I would go back.

Vegan available

Was a bit disappointed. Had the falafel bowl. It was ok, but basic. Wouldn't eat it again. But hey, meals were clearly labeled and staff was friendly.

Pros: Atmosphere , Vegan options

Cons: Nothing special

Esquina

The menu has changed considerably since the last reviews. I am the kind of person who likes to almost pre decide what I fancy before going and they didn't have the options I wanted (tacos, cheesecake and carrot cake) but fear not. Still some options available.
We ordered two mains, 2 drinks and 2 cakes. Kombucha was a good find on this island. Hot chocolate was super thick, similar to one I had in Malta. Hubby loved the GF VG banana cake which had choc, almond and blueberries in as well as banana. I ordered falafel bowl. Good mix of ingredients. And tiffin to take away for later. Staff were super keen and attentive.
Mix of indoor and outdoor seating.
Open kitchen.

Plant based - Teguise

We visited the Sunday market and knew that we had to visit Esquina's to try their food.
We sat outside and were served quite quickly.
We both had Acai bowls which were quite sweet but were very fresh.
The hot chocolate had a deep taste and wasn't too sweet. We also had the golden milk which was great - we would recommend that you try this if you like Chai.
Menu as of Sept 2024

Unmissable

Visited here yesterday for lunch and couldn’t be more happier that we did. We were visiting Lanzarote for a week’s holiday and this was one of the best places we found for vegan food. Honestly can’t recommend this place more highly - the food was fabulous, came out quickly, and the service was brilliant. Love this place!

Pros: Great menu choices, Fabulous service, Lovely setting

Muy bien

This restaurant has got to be one of the best vegan places I have ever eaten at. With there being barely any vegan places to eat in Lanzarote, Esquina surprised me. It was insanely good and filling, the deserts were top notch and an amazing way to finish a meal. The chocolate ice cream was phenomenal same with the Toffin.

Pros: Filling, Extremely tasty

Great Vegan Food

We’ve been here a couple of times and tried a lot of menu. It’s all been great. Although a highlight may be the salchipapas and banana bread. Only vegan restaurant currently on the island and definitely worth the visit.

Amazing food

Fully vegan restaurant offering a decent choice of food/drink/desserts.
I opted for the salad bowl & it was beautiful! huge portions & lovely fresh food, My husband (who isn’t vegan) went for Gyozas & said it was amazing. Would definitely recommend this little gem hidden in the small local back streets of Teguise!

Deliciosa comida

Lugar con encanto, en un pueblo imprescindible de ver en un viaje a Lanzarote.
La carta aunque un poco reducida, dispone de varios platos muy sabrosos. Recomiendo los tacos de Jackfruit y las croquetas de coliflor y brócoli al curri. Postres caseros también muy ricos.

Pros: Comida, Lugar, Atención

A bit expensive, but great to have a vegan place in the middle of a volcanic island

We tried a few things and they were nicely presented and they were good. The staff was friendly. The table we were at was a bit unshaded, but we managed to make it work and not melt in the sun.

Pros: Good food, Friendly staff

Cons: A bit expensive

Rustic charm

Sunday 31.03.24: Our second visit, this time for lunch. There is a huge market on a Sunday in this gorgeous village and the cafe was therefore very busy but we were in luck and secured a table inside. The staff were run off their feet but were still able to provide a friendly service. The food was delicious.

Friday 29.03.24: Luck was on our side and we were able to park right outside, well just a few feet down the side of the building. Its rustic charm and the friendly service, and delicious food would have us going back again if we have time. Loved it here.

Good but pricey

The place was very nice in a cozy street but half of the menu was not available that day, it was only 13:00. The food we ordered was very good but not worth the price to be honest

100 % vegan

Very nice place in the center of Teguise! The menu is fully vegan, with many options for breakfast/brunch and lunch. I had the Falafel bowl and the banana bread today and can’t wait to go back to try other options. Staff is really friendly (they even got along with my broken Spanish; however, menu is in Spanish and English and both servers were fluent in English as well). They are only open 10-3 pm and have outdoor seating as well - nice place to sit and watch the people strolling around.

Pros: Fully vegan

Cons: Only open 10 am - 3 pm

Solid vegan food offer with excellent choice

This corner restaurant/bar has gone 100% vegan and it's excellent. A good range of food, something for those of us with intolerances, and two taps of local beer. We only came once but that was because Teguise is up a hill :)

The place is on a narrow street that's mostly vehicle free. The people running it seem to be really committed to what they are doing. And the food was excellent!

Pros: Range of food , The food was really tasty!!

Cons: No shade if you're outside, If it's busy they get a little overwhelmed.
