Recommended Place - Edit
They no longer have their pizza, so I ordered the tofu noodles with vegetables. It was better than some noodle dishes I’ve had at local thai restaurants. Their caesar and greek salads, and tofu shawarma are great! While their menu is quite extensive now, their prices have more than doubled in the last 3 years. Service was good. We waited a while for menus (only 1 other table had people at it ) only to be told that we should scan the QR code. They assumed we also knew to go to the drink bar to pay. All in all, it was a cozy and warm place to eat on a cold rainy day.

cozy venue, good food - Edit
The venue was cozy, nice atmosphere.

Hadn’t experienced much good hospitality in Tbilisi until going to Kiwi vegan food.
I ate the buckwheat bowl which was nice on a winters night, my partner had the vegan cheese burger, we both had a side of fries which was a generous serve.
great mulled wine here!
Pros: yummy food , good location, close to freedom square , mulled wine
Cons: Not many gluten free options

Not very good - Edit
This place isn’t very good. The pictures on their website simply are not the good you should expect to receive. The avocado or guacamole spread they have is gross. The fries are okay. We’ve been there 2 times and honestly the best thing we had was their tofu noodle and vegetables dish.

Love it - Edit
I’ve ordered here several times already and love their menu. The shawarma is my favourite. Highly recommend this place.
Read moreThe dessert options are also nice but too small so not worth it in my opinion.

Только если не торопитесь - Edit
Не знаю почему все так любят это место среди моих знакомых, наверно из-за цены разве что.
Read moreПервое и самое неприятное - тут ОЧЕНЬ МЕДЛЕННОЕ ОБСЛУЖИВАНИЕ !
Если вы торопитесь или очень голодны - не сюда.
3 из 5 раз мне несли блюда в среднем по 40 минут.
И один раз я ждала больше часа, пару раз напоминая о своём заказе, и это при том,что я заказала банальный сэндвич с тофу и зал был полупустой. И даже после этого они забыли о том, что я заказывала чай 😬
Сама еда простая, съедобно. Порции нормальные.
А вот матча латте отвратительный - используют некачественный матча порошок серого цвета, в котором ни аромата и одна горечь.
Из приятного - там есть сидр (в Тбилиси мало где даже в барах он есть,не то что в кафе)
И ещё минус в зимнее время - в марте-апреле в помещении было очень холодно,не отапливают, сидела в пальто.
Pros: Дёшево, Есть разные алкогольные коктейли и сидр
Cons: Очень.Медленное.Обслуживание., Тофу постоянно пересоленный, отвратительная матча, Зимой холодно в помещении

Hit and miss - Edit
I really like the space and the service was nice, but the food wasn't quite there. The menu itself is pretty straightforward: nothing terribly exciting with options such as simple pasta dishes and sandwiches. For lunch, we ordered the sweet noodles (actually linguine) with tofu and vegetables which was fine and the fried tofu plate with sour plum sauce and bread (a HUGE serve). The tofu was pretty plain but I appreciated the huge serving and took the rest home.
Read moreBoth desserts weren't very good at all: the baklava was too drenched in syrup so the pastry became very soft, and the peanut butter and banana toast came on low-quality and not the nicest-tasting white bread.
I like what the cafe stands for, but I think the food needs to improve a bit. 3.5 stars

It was nice, food was good, didn't wait long, prices ok.

Bob Marley tunes - Edit
My friend had the falafel hummus wrap and I had the tofu burger yesterday. Was OK but I was still hungry. We though we try again today. My friend had the Kiwi Bowl and I had the lentil soup and Mexican potatoes. Wow. So good. I managed to finish but then I'm a big guy. My friend couldn't finish and I couldn't even help. Delicious food and generous servings with nostalgic Marley playing on the speakers.

Great place to eat and drink - Edit
So good to find a totally vegan place like this in Tiblisi. The service was good as well as the food and drink.
Read moreI had a well-packed burrito and a huge portion of Mexican potatoes (which thankfully my wife helped me to eat!) and my wife had an aubergine sandwich which she enjoyed.

La mejor de las intenciones, pero no perfecto. - Edit
El café Kiwi es un espacio bastante agradable, bonito y sobre todo en el que puedes colaborar con distintas causas justas. La comida, sin embargo, no estaba especialmente deliciosa: bien, pero no espectacular. Además, y esto ya es personal, en este tipo de sitios estaría genial que hubiera más opciones de comida local vegnaizada (en ese sentido, el shawarma de tofu me pareció poco logrado). El trato es bastante en correcto, en la línea de la ciudad.

Nice vibe, huge portions, but food is just okay - Edit
The menu is not incredibly exciting - I got the BBQ tofu just because it was the most Georgian-sounding thing on the menu, served with plum sauce, Georgian bread, and pomegranate seeds. The portion was HUGE! Two could easily share this dish. The tofu was kind of dry but the plum sauce brought it to life.
Read moreThe dessert selection was quite small. I got the "Bounty" and a hot chocolate, both were okay.
Fortunately I wasn't in a hurry, because the service was quite slow.
It's nice to see this place spreading the vegan message though. It has a really nice vibe and I enjoyed the music as well.
Pros: Vegan activists , Friendly service , Low prices, large portions
Cons: The menu could be more interesting , Not many desserts

Cafe supports the Plant Based Treaty - Edit
We were very satisfied with our lunch here! The tofu burger looked kind of small at first but it was actually very filling (and super tasty)! The "Snickers" dessert was simply amazing. We liked the cosy vibe of the cafe with anti-oppression messages/art all over the walls. The English-speaking staff were very friendly.
Read moreAlso, we're very happy to see that the cafe endorses the Plant Based treaty to help save the animals, humans, and planet from the climate crisis.
Can't wait to go back and try everything else on the menu!
Pros: Supports the Plant Based Treaty, Good location in city centre, Inexpensive

Fine, but nothing to write home about. - Edit
Ate here 2 times
Read moreThe first time I had the tofu burger, didn't think it was anything special. The 2nd time I had the kiwi bowl, honestly I didn't really enjoy that, the tofu was so salty.
My partner had the green pasta, and the spaghetti the 2nd time, both were pretty good, but a little oily. We also tried the lentil soup (was also fine, not amazing, but fine).
The homemade mint lemonade was probably the worst I had since being in Tbilisi, so I wouldn't recommend that. The chocolate milkshake however was nice.
Also tried the baklava, can't comment on it as I had never had it before, but It was incredibly sweet and I didn't find it particularly nice.
Pros: Friendly staff , Massive portions , Not overly expensive
Cons: The food is nothing special

Nice food - Edit
Yummy food, the chocolate smoothie is amazing too, nice atmosphere, one star deduction because it said on the menu that the tofu sandwich would be served with fries/raw salad, I asked for the salad option, the waitress told me it was both included but there was no raw salad, just the fries
Read moreBased on past reviews we expected a longer wait (we came at around 12:30, so maybe it gets busier later). The service wasn't fast but compared to other (vegan/veggie) places in Tbilisi a lot faster than expected
We came a second time, this time for lunch, food was great again, quick service
