Lovely cafe with great vibes

Café with really friendly atmosphere and friendly staff. We had tofu sandwich and tofu burger (which was basically the same thing, just different bun :) ), buckwheat with veggies and a salad. The sandwiches and buckwheat were tasty, the salad quite mediocre. Nevertheless, we will be definitely coming back, because it has a good vibes and likeminded people and most importantly, kittens. If you are vegan in Tbilisi, you should definitely visit this place!
Also, it seems you can buy tofu there - I couldn't find it in any store.

Pros: Great atmosphere and friendly staff, OK and very cheap food , Kittens

Cons: Service was a bit slow

Best cafe in the heart of Old Tbilisi

The cafe has a really cozy vibe! They also have a few books you can browse. The food tastes great, and you can always ask them to make it spicier or less spicy, just how you like it.We had a burger, a wrap, cake, and two bottles of Coke. Our bill came to 50 lari, which was really affordable!

Very comfortable café with great food

I love Kiwi café, it has a very nice atmosphere, lots of space, and a very extensive menu! I would love to just sit here and work all day, or take friends for lunch or dinner.
I had the seitan sandwich because I wanted to get something filling and healthy, with some veggies. It was a great choice, it was a solid option that’s delicious. They have other very interesting food on the menu but I only made it here once. I would love to be back to try more. Service is good.

Nice place

Small restaurant with nice interior. Several options for a good price. I had a mushroom cream soup and a buckwheat with tofu. And later I tried the seitan bowl and kalakuri khinkali. Especially the soup is very nice!

Salad and soup

I had a great Caesar salad and cream of mushroom soup. The BBQ tofu was also really good. Lots of indoor seating and nice staff. Kombucha. Kalakuri khinkali

Hit or Miss

The rating really depends on what you order I think.
⭐️The Tofu Shawarma was incredible 10/10.

🥬 the vitaminized chlorella smoothie was alright. It was what my body needed, but the texture was kind of gritty or chewy. 7.5/10

🥢 the noodles with tofu and veggies didn’t specify any chili or spice, but it was actually incredibly spicy and actually inedible for me. I had to give it away. Tofu was delicious though and I picked some of those pieces out and cleaned the chili off to eat them. 1/10

🌯 Burrito was bleh. It lacked flavor and was just not very good. I would not recommend this one. Didn’t eat it in the end and gave it away. 3/10

Cons: Can be quite loud as they have an open kitchen

Tofu Shawarma is the No.1 for me

What the title says, had it two times, convinced me two times, loved the house-made vegan sauce and the cheese dumplings, the veggie bowl was alright. The burrito on the other hand was so flavorless, it caught me off-guard because I tasted the tofu shawarma right before. There’s definitely quite some room for improvement there. The noodle dish was tasty as well and had a good amount of spice which wasn’t specified on the menu, so my partner couldn’t eat it and that sucked so beware there.

Exceeded Expectations

Delicious food, generous portions, friendly service, reasonable prices.

We had the BBQ Tofu, and Noodles with Tofu and Veggies. Enjoyed the seasoning of both. Came hungry, left happy.


Had a couple more experiences.
- A take away order with 2 entrees and 1 side. They forgot 1 entree.
- Went for dinner, they brought me something other than what I had ordered.

The food is delicious, but maybe a little more attention to detail.

In any case, I'll be back again.

BBQ Tofu is amazing!

Nice restaurant with very friendly staff and a friendly vibe. I ordered the Kiwi Bowl (I guess their signature bowl) and a homemade mint lemonade which was pretty good. The bowl itself wasn’t so spectacular, but it was saved by the Barbecue Tofu which probably was the best marinated Tofu I have eaten so far!

Charming cafe with food to match

The cafe is a lovely escape from the business of the old town outside. The decor is lovely and their menu choice is great. There’s so much to choose from that you’re spoilt. I went with the bbq tofu wrap and fries. The portion sizes are big which was perfect for me as I was hungry so it suited well. The berry smoothie was also fresh and delicious. I wish I’d come back as it was one of the best vegan offerings in the city. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Nice atmosphere, Awful food

The atmosphere of the place is nice, the staff was welcoming and warned us that there might be a bit of a wait.

However, the food left a lot to be desired. We couldn’t get through even half of our meals, they were genuinely worse than your average home cooked meal. We had the noodles with veggies and spaghetti siciliana, each tasted like a stew with some noodles on top. The mushroom cream soup we had had an odd thick texture, and somehow didn’t taste good either (not sure what can go wrong with a cream soup).

It’s a real shame, but this cooking is unacceptable. Judging by how incredible some other vegan restaurants were during my visit to Tbilisi, I’m sure it’s easy to find incredible vegan cooks around to address this issue.

Pros: Atmosphere, Staff

Cons: Food, Food, Food

Mediocre food :(

My experience was disappointing unfortunately, maybe we didn't come on a good day or something, if the rest of the reviews are so positive, but the food was not good at all.
The tofu with veggies was ok, nothing special. The spaghetti was too salty for my taste and had paprika for some reason. And the mushroom soup was not smooth and had too much oregano sprinkled on top.
The staff was kind, and the lemonades were good. But I think for food, at this point, there are many better options in Tbilisi.

Pros: Lemonades, Friendly staff

Cons: Food was not good

Wonderful

Fully vegan restaurant in the middle of Tbilisi.
We tried the BBQ tofu, seitan wrap, avocado toast with cheese and the Millenials cake and all of them were super.
Good music and great service.

We ended up eating here almost daily, and hope to be back soon 🇬🇪🇩🇪♥️

Favorites: Falafel wrap, Hummus plate, Mexican potatoes and vegan Khinkali.

Pros: Delicious food, Cozy ambience, Very friendly and helpful staff

Cute place

Cute and easy. Food is good but not amazing. They do have vegan meat version of a traditional dish which is fun to try but not my fav place in town.

vegan khinkali! 😍😍😍

i heard a lot about this place and of course i wanted to check it out for myself. it didn't disappoint! it's a very cozy and quiet place in the center of the town, perfect for lunch or a meeting. as i understood they also sell vegan-themed t-shirts and hoodies

what i liked the most is that they have khinkali - traditional georgian food made vegan. enjoyed my meal a lot!
also ordered a wrap to go, and it was so big i had to eat it for two days! totally worth trying :)

Pros: vegan khinkali! 😍, quiet place, great decorations

Didn't like it

It is nice to see a fully vegan restaraunt, and it looks like it belogs to activists as well.
Unfortunately we didn't like the food at all. The traditional Georgian food which is already vegan tastes much better than anything we tried here.
We ordered caeser salad, pasta with mushroom sauce and tofu bowl.

Pros: Supporting vegan activism

Cons: Taste :(
