Incredible flavours and wonderful presentation - Edit
Absolutely beautiful vegan meal, we did the 3 course option so between two of us got to try the whole menu. Everything was delicious, elevated dishes with very fresh flavours. Staff were also very helpful. We loved it super worth going to!

Fine Végétal Eatery - Edit
On of our top fully vegan stops in the country, this is an excellent stop for an extensive dinner!
Read moreFrom the friendly and English speaking staff who was not afraid to make bold recommendations (thanks!) to a relaxed atmosphere, we opted for a three course menu accompanied by a variety of drinks.
Everything was locally sourced and organic, carefully assembled and creatively presented.
Would go there again in a heartbeat, at these prices they would see me regularly!
Pros: Don‘t forget make reservations on their site!, Very budget friendly

Incredible! - Edit
Yummiest dinner I've had in a while! The menu is very simple, 2 starters, 1 main dish and 2 desserts; you can either pick 3, 4 or 5 dishes. I went with three and it was filling enough.
Read moreThe menu only lists the ingredients used, but you never know what to expect - still, from start to finish the meal was incredible; I believe they change their menu once a week.
The atmoshere was nice and relaxed, and the staff just lovely.
Price wise I found it to be fair - will definitely go again next time I stop by Grenoble!

Nice, reasonable priced vegan place - Edit
As others have written, you have the choice between two starters, no choice for the main and then again two dessert options. Menus are 1-1-1 for 24 Euro, 4 picks for 28 (?) or everything for I think 32. Water is free. In case you consider yourself eligible you can ask for the "solidarity menu" for 20 Euro, which is the 1-1-1 option including one beverage of the house's choice.
Read moreThe menu is confusing, it basically only lists the ingredients of the dishes, so you should have a look at the pictures here to get an understanding of what they prepare. Haven't had french veg food in a long time, so I cannot really compare, but I liked that the dishes are original and appear well-designed. Certainly not the all-too common "fusion" or "somewhat asian" etc. vibe. The flavours were good, the price seems very reasonable to me. Since the menu is weekly (unless I misunderstood) I'm not sure I'd go there twice to get the same main dish. And this is my only slightly negative remark, the lack of a choice for the main seems a bit limiting. Yes, I've seen the comment on the other post below.
Other than that, when in Grenoble I'd say give it a go.
Updated from previous review on 2023-07-18
Pros: Well thought out, original dishes
Cons: Only one main on the menu
locafe
Thank you very much😄
Read moreJust to clarify, the solidarity menu is there for anyone in a tight spot/budget, we do not ask for justification of eligibility.
The menu changes on a weekly basis indeed. We did consider having a second main dish, and it may come in the future, but right now it's too much work for our small team😄

Très bon menu full vegan - Edit
Full vegan ! Très bon menu, très juste et de saison ! Un peut supplément de protéines "brutes" aurait été bien personnellement. Le dessert était excellent aussi !
Read morelocafe
Merci pour ce gentil message ! Nous avons juste pas compris ce que vous vouliez dire par un supplément protéines brutes? Vous pouvez retrouver des protéines brutes sur tous les choix du menu puisque nous prenons soin à ce que l'apport nutritif soit riche et varié. En l'occurrence, dans le menu que vous avez posté, les protéines brutes sont, les pois chiches, le tournesol, le riz complet, les amandes, le quinoa et le mélange de graines du deuxième dessert.
Read moreBonne journée :)
SelonHelene
Vous avez totalement raison dans l'idée de l'équilibre nutritionnel et l'omniprésence de protéines ! 👌🏻C'est surtout pour le cas des personnes non-vegan qui vont avoir besoin de "voir" la protéine comme du tofu, seitan etc. Mais rien à redire 😊

Thank you very much for your kind words, we are glad you enjoyed your time at Locafé!
Read moreWe chose to have a shortened menu so we can propose more elaborate dishes, but also to limit the food waste linked to having a larger menu since waste reduction is one of the core reasons we exist as a restaurant.
We do ask our customers to inform us of any allergies beforehand when making the reservations so we can adapt our menu if there is enough time for us to prepare, or refuse the reservation if we know we won't have time to adapt our dishes to the guests needs :)
Have a great day!

Excellent meal for a reasonable price - Edit
This is what French cooking is all about.
Read moreLocafé changes their menu every now and then to respect seasonability and always comes with surprising and delicious meals.
All ingredients are organic and local, the drink menu is very original and has a lot of homemade beverages.
And the price is very low considering all the effort put in the making. For 24 euros, you can have a complete meal with two (yes, two) starters, one main and a dessert. True story.
Best vegan restaurant I tried so far.
Pros: Great cooking, 100% vegan, reasonable price

Locura - Edit
El mejor restaurante de nuestra travesía francesa! Texturas y sabores super originales. Platos equilibrados y se ve que el menu lleva reflexion! Una señora adorable se ha ocupado de nosotros en ingles sin ningún problema. Los precios fueron los mas bajos que encontramos en este tipo de restaurante en Francia, y que para la calidad, es una locura, en Lyon pagamos mucho mas para productos equivalentes. Oimos musica latina que sale del reggaeton (salsa, rock argentino) y la playlist en general estaba guay ! Tienen escrito en su pagina web también los esfuerzos que hacen por reducir desechos lo que nos pareció genial! Muchas gracias por este lugar!

Amazing - Edit
This place is the best vegetarian meal we have had in France. (I know the restaurant is vegan but still applies). We were only planning on drinking a coffee in the afternoon as a friend recommended their coffees, but after seeing their Instagram, we NEEDED to try it out. We had to come back to eat the week after because it was already fully booked. The association of textures and flavors was amazing. Some spices we had never heard of (xawaash was an amazing discovery). We also noticed EVERYTHING was organic, seriously, not a single item on their counters ( or on what you can see in the open kitchen) was missing the organic label. They seem to be very transparent about the origin of their products as they list them all on their website (and also their bathroom lol). This is the first time I've seen such a level of openness about a restaurants suppliers, hope it catches on! The wine was very nice, both of the available glasses were organic and natural. It is with no doubt the best price to quality ratio we've had in France. Our only regret is not living closer to them! Thanks for this great place!
