Bad vegan experience

We went to this location because the menu online looked interesting for both my non veg friends and me. Turns out it is not up to date. They had three vegan options and went to two. I looked at the wrap I ordered and was disappointed because it was just a wrap with some cheese particles in it. It smelled, looked and tasted like real cheese so I had to confirm with the staff. They didnt seem shocked but at least answered me that the dish listed as vegan is not vegan at all. They did offer me the other vegan dish.

also for 18 euros I do not expect a tortilla wrap with some melted cheese particles and call it a day. Very pricey for doing very little.

Pros: The vegan cake was ok

Cons: Only one vegan option and wrong info on menu, Staff very unhelpful / uninterested, Very pricey

Unfortunately they changed their menu three weeks ago

And they no longer have the tofu scramble. They do however have avocado toast which can be made vegan, and they have a vegan tortilla wrap which kind of took away my sorrow over the tofu scramble because it was delicious . 😋 and they still have their vegan pink cupcakes!!

I just went and they told me that the tortilla wrap is not vegan. Both the cheese and cream are with dairy. Their only vegan option is the avo toast 😭

Lovely food, good service and nice location

I was one only a few customers in the morning I went (a Thursday I think) and the service was fantastic and attentive. The speed of the food was great as was the mint tea I was given. It was an end to end great experience.

Pros: Speed of service , Quality and tasty food, Friendly service

Long wait, poor service

The food was okay, nothing groundbreaking. Half of our order was missing, half got mixed up. Even though there was a lot of staff, we were pretty much ignored both times we wanted to order.

Pros: Some vegan options

Cons: Long wait

Very good - not a ton of vegan options

I had the vegan scramble which was really quite good. My other family members had the acai bowl which was decent but apparently not amazing. Looked like it was blended with a lot of banana if that makes sense - not very dark - which is fine but we have definitely had a lot better. There were really only a few vegan options, so if you’re not picky then I do recommend it. Very cute ambiance too.

Cons: Not that many vegan options

Delicious Brunch time

Delicious and varied breakfast/brunch food.
Everything vegan is clearly labelled.
We had the scrambled tofu with an awesome "portobello bacon".
It's a bit expensive but the dishes are worth it, delicious and large portions.

Pros: Awesome portobello bacon

Very good food. A few good vegan options. Portions a bit small but if you order two dishes it's enough. And they have amazing vegan brownie.

Pros: Very tasty , Good quality

Be careful

They only have a few vegan options. We always ask if a drink or dish is vegan. The nice waitress understood as she was a vegan herself. But even then you have to be cautious if you’re a vegan. One of the dishes came with feta cheese, which you can order as an extra. We had to send it back. Very disappointing, we didn’t have enough time to wait for a replacement. They didn’t charge the dish, but didn’t offer a free drink or some other nice gesture.

Few vegan options

I had the Japanese bowl, pink cake ('roze koek') and green juice and they were quite tasty. The bowl included wholegrain soba noodles and great veggies. The roze koek was made with chickpea flour and tasted like a roze koek should taste. The green juice contained spinach, sellery, apple and lemon and had a nice sweet taste.

However, they only have a few vegan options and don’t update them that often. Therefore, it gets boring to come here.

Cosy café, limited choices

Lavinia is a very cute place, but unfortunately they don‘t have many vegan options. I had the vegan egg salad sandwich, which was 14 € and not very filling. The taste was alright, but nothing really special. Also would have had cakes!

Yummy

Tasty food what else should you say as a vegan you will be served some very tasty options even of they are not a lot. the ones they have are great. Pricewise i guess as a tourist it is hard to say since prices in berlin are cheaper. So inrather would rate the taste per money and that was fantastic ;)

Pros: very tasty vegan egg salad toast, froendly stuff, lovely interior

Cons: only 4 options vegan fxcl sweets, pricey at least for a german GDR dude

Lekkere Vegan eiersalade

Lavinia ligt in een zijstraat van de nieuwe Spiegelstraat. De Kerkstraat is een rustige straat in een drukke buurt.
Bij Lavinia moet je geduld hebben, maar dan heb je ook wat. De Vegan eiersalade is heerlijk.
De Vegan cappuccino met amandelmelk is ook iets om voor terug te komen!

Not much choice.

Touted as being veggie friendly but not much on offer for vegans. A sushi option and that was it. Very expensive and pretty basic

Pros: Location is cool

Cons: Expensive, Lack of selection

Was alright

My boyfriend had scrambled egg (vegetarian) which seemed to be really good, I had a Japanese bowl, which I wasn’t too much fan of, but it’s main ingredient is eggplant, which I don’t like so don’t take my judgement for that- otherwise nice and comply place with outside sitting

Place to bring your non vegan friends

I love this place even though i do not like their ethics of serving animal flesh it is one of the best places for a vegan and non vegans to eat together if you are okay with that as i know some of you are not.

The vegan cakes are some of the best around and unlike most..the pictures you see online actually do represent what you get in real life lol

The atmosphere aside the animal flesh consumption is really nice and location is excellent.

Will be back soon

Pros: Lovely cakes, Nice Vegan selection, Staff and location

Cons: They sell dead animal products, You may be sitting next to someone eating meat
