Really awesome vegan focaccia

Owner is really nice and helpful. The vegan mozzarella for vegan pizzas wasn’t available so he suggested two vegan focaccias and a farinata. Would give 5 stars if possible

Nice spot for lunch

There are a couple of benches just outside, and also plenty of places to sit near the water with your takeaway lunch. There were lots of options, including focaccia, pizza slices, and farinata with vegan pesto. The owner was friendly, and there’s a sign outside saying they have vegan options.

Many vegan options

This place has many vegan (and some gluten free) options such as pesto or tomato ragu lasagna, pasta, pizza with vegan cheese (rice based), vegan meatballs, „nutella“ focaccia, …
The owner is insanely friendly and will help you out with any questions you have!

Fast food vegan spot

Hours on happy cow are wrong. We waited here at 10am but they didn’t open until 11am. Meatballs & onion focaccia was delicious. Farinata was okay-too fried. Very friendly owner. Kept thanking him for having so many vegan options.

Plenty of delicious options

So refreshing to find a spot with plenty of options to choose from for us vegans. We had the pesto lasagna and the polenta with sun dried tomato pesto. Both were incredible, so glad we went out of our way to eat here. Well worth it!!

Lots of vegan options

Plenty to choose from, in the only place we found in Cinque Terre offering vegan cheese! Proprietor is friendly, with a good grasp of vegan food and portions are generous.

Perfeito

Segunda vez que vou fazer não poderia ser melhor! Lasanha de pesto e almôndegas veganas deliciosas e atendimento gentil e acolhedor. Além disso, fica na rua principal de Manarola, fácil de encontrar e bem perto da vista mais privilegiada para o mar.

So nice

The owner is very friendly and this is the only place I found in 5terre that had proper vegan options not just “pizza no cheese” and tomato pasta. We really enjoyed our “‘meatballs” and our vegan tofu pesto lasagna ❤️

Great place for vegan options!

Everything is clearly labeled vegan and the owner is happy to elaborate if you need help understanding what is vegan. I got the pesto lasagna and my husband got the mushroom pizza. To be honest, it was not my favorite food but I’m giving it a good rating because he is one of three places in Manarola who lists vegan on the menu (as far as I could find).

Amazing find!

I got the vegan polpette (meatballs) and vegan lasagne (not the pesto one, but the regular one). DELICIOUS. Portions were good for the price, food was so tasty. If this were an all vegan restaurant it would get 5 stars. The man running the place was also very nice.

Seating (in the main stretch) of Manarola is very limited, but there are some benches right in front of this takeout restaurant for customers.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Good portions, Delicious

Great service and great food 💚

When we walked through the door the chef gave us a tour of all the food options. It's premade and reheated when you buy it. But the food is still delicious 🤤.

Best food in Cinque Terre

The regular vegan lasagna was the best, the pesto lasagna was the second best. The chickpea patty thing was just ok. Sometimes he closes early than advertised here.

Nice selection of all vegan items

This restaurant has an all vegan menu that includes vegan ravioli (with pesto sauce), a selection of vegan focaccia breads, vegan potato balls. It also has an all gluten free menu. I thought the food was delicious! It's take out and not fancy but tastes great - like Italian vegan soul food. After visiting many places it was a relief to find a place so vegan friendly!

Pros: Great food, Friendly to vegans, Nice portions, reasonable price

Tons of options

Owner was super nice and there are tons of clearly marked vegan options. It’s a to-go place so your food comes wrapped as takeout. We got the pesto lasagna and ragú lasagna. The cheese was kinda plasticy and both were lacking flavor overall. We really wanted to love it but didn’t. I’d try something else next time.

Pros: Lots of options, Clearly marked, Friendly owner

Vegan italian food

This little take away shop saved our dinner since every other vegan place was closed already on a friday late afternoon. We had vegan focaccia with onions and dried tomatos weich was both very tasty. We had the polpette as well, which were exceptionally good! The shop owner was super friendly and everything was clearly labled as vegan.

Decent vegan takeout

Had a vegan lasagne here and it was good but not spectacular. They do have many other options, and we didn’t try those, but there was a steady stream of customers and the owner is super friendly!

Pros: Many vegan options, Take away plates for picnics , Friendly owner

Cons: Not spectacular
