Excellent food, large portions, friendly staff - Edit
My wife and I did our hotel booking in the near area because of knowing there were 2 vegetarian restaurants nearby (this one & Kunda). Happy Veggie was our first restaurant upon arriving in Koh Lanta, having spent the last 3 nights on Koh Ngai. We were very hungry, but used to smaller portion sizes on Koh Ngai so we ordered too much food, as the portions were quite large. No problem as we love leftovers. I had a tasty stir fry with a very delicious order of sweet potato/potato French fries (baked too, not deep fried). My wife had a cashew nut stir fry and an order of pineapple rice (excellent presentation).
We had a wonderful chat with the owner Puk as she is very passionate about her cooking. She also told us about the animal welfare Center just around the corner, as we will stop there during our few days on Koh Lanta for a tour.
Excellent food, cute little cafe and very friendly staff (the 2 ladies). We are going back today for dinner after checking out Kunda Cafe for lunch..
Pros: Quality Food, Great Service, Friendly Staff

Best food in Koh Lanta - Edit
We came to the place because of the good Happy Cow reviews and we really can confirm all the good stuff that has been written. We loved every of our dishes, especially the raw pad thai. We were sad that we did not find it earlier as we only had the possibilty to go there on our last three days. We would have tried every dish if there had been more time.
The owner is really friendly and passionate about cooking, if she has the time she likes to chat with the customers and explain the ingredients. The friendliness also applies to the other staff. We definitely recommend the raw pad thai, the pumpkin hummus sandwich and the homemade ice tea. The price is definitely reasonable, nearly the same as for vegetarian dishes in the restaurants on the main street. We would love to come back in the future :-)
Pros: Taste, Friendly staff, Price
Cons: None, None, None

Happy bellies at Happy Veggie - Edit
What an amazing little spot. The owner was so sweet and friendly I would have gone back just to see her! We were lucky enough to find this place on our second day in Koh Lanta and then it was the only place we ate out at! On our multiple visits we ordered: spring rolls, samosa, pan fried tofu (you can get all the above 3 items in an appetizer), Pineapple banana smoothie, pesto pasta, stir fried mixed veggies with rice, Pineapple fried rice. All of our food was delicious and hot and our smoothies were rich and refreshing. To top it off, everything was very moderately priced (50-120 baht). This place is a big factor to why I wish we had more time in Koh Lanta! You won't be disappointed if you make a trip to Happy Veggie!
Pros: Delicious food and drink, Great prices , Amazing staff
Cons: None, None , None

Excellent - so fresh and tasty! - Edit
This is a fantastic restaurant where you can be assured everything on the menu is veggie or vegan. I had the raw pad Thai and an absolutely delicious vegetable samosa that was very creatively presented.
The owner is wonderful - a true animal lover who takes time to get to know her customers.
The restaurant and outside seating area is very clean, bright and comfortable, and there are some lovely and well-cared for cats who may keep you company as you dine.
Pros: Excellent food, Clear menu, Very friendly staff
Cons: None!

Superb - Edit
I'm so happy to found this lovely place! Have visited here three times so far. Every time the food has been amazingly tasty. So fresh and full of flavours. Must try raw pad thai, pasta pesto, hummus sandwich..all vegan, all good. Last visit me and my husband had a one stater to share and one main meal/ person. We asked part of the food to take away as the portions are fair. Oh and also fruit smoothies are very good. And they even add soy milk or coconut cream if you want. The lady who runs the restaurant is very lovely and sweet. Definitely recommend this restaurant!

fantastic! - Edit
Went there today for a meal, had raw pesto pasta and a pad Thai. The pesto tasted very fresh and homemade and was such a delicious and refreshing meal on such a hot day. Also had yummy tempura veggies. The lady who ran the place was also so lovely and was very passionate about her restaurant, will definitely be going back while we stay here.

one of the best - Edit
We came here a few times on our stay in koh lanta and each time was better then the other! The lady who runs the place is so sweet and nice and did the best to make us happy with our dishes. The sandwiches are fresh and delicious, the portions are pretty big and the smoothies are amazing. She stocks on vegan mayo so you should ask for it in your sandwich. Spring rolls are delicious.

Decent Food, Hit and Miss Service - Edit
The food is definitely really good as are the fruit shakes but on our last visit my friend got her food last even though we were the first to arrive and all the other tables were served before she get hers.
Apart from that, we really liked it.

wow!! - Edit
This spot is incredible. We had pineapple fried rice (served in a Pineapple) which was beyond wonderful. Cashews, raisins, corn, peas, carrots, tomato, and rice. Oh and big chunks of pineapple. Highly recommend. Also had the raw papaya salad and it was one of the best I've ever tasted. Awesome service and such a nice vibe here. 100% recommend this spot. :)

Pros: Great food, nice staff

Just delicious! - Edit
We had several curries this week in non vegetarian restaurants, but the yellow curry and the masaman curry here were the best we had so far! They were 120 baht each and worth it. Very nice and friendly lady, we hope to have the time to come back this week.
Pros: All vegetarian, delicious food

A taste of heaven! - Edit
This is hands down one of the best vegetarian restaurants we have eaten at in Thailand! The food is absolutely delicious with a great selection of Thai food as well as western options.
The owner is a really sweet, warm and friendly lady and her love of cooking and good food really shows through in the delicious and healthy preparations.
Call us crazy but we ate here for lunch and dinner every day for the week we stayed on Lanta. :)
10 out of 10!
Pros: Absolutely delicious, Cheap, Clean and healthy food.
Cons: None.
