Super friendly service - Edit
I arrived shortly before closing time with my toddler, and the service couldn't have been friendlier.
Read moreThe lady brought books and pencils for his entertainment and even managed to put a special dessert together because he's allergic to cashews and pistachios.
I was too exhausted to actually study the menu, and was very grateful for the effort she put into making us feel comfortable.
Thanks a million! 💚
Pros: The friendly service, Tasty food, Toddler entertainment and cute decorations

Como en casa - Edit
No podía ser más acogedor y agradable el sitio. Terracita a la fresca y plato del día (en nuestro caso curry rojo) exquisito. También probamos un wrap, que aunque pueda parecer lo mismo de siempre, estaba especialmente rico. Una tarta de algarroba e higos increíble. Un acierto

Friendly place - Edit
Nice menu with all vegan options. Very good service. Only thing to improve is the spice of the food, everything was fresh but tasted “earthy”.

Vegan cafe - Edit
Small place with a good atmosphere. We sat at one of the few outdoor tables in the square. We had the house lemonade and a soy-based mocha latte , and the lemon cake and carrot cake which was excellent. There was only one member of staff (the owner?) doing everything so don't come if you are in a hurry.

Lovely little cafe in Faro - Edit
Very relaxed cafe visited for lunch. We enjoyed the felafel rap, the felafel couscous salad, and finished off with some freshly baked carrot cake. It was great to sit outside and there was plenty of inside seating. The cafe is fully vegan.

Elegant cafe - Edit
Laid back place, with a menu that changes by the day. Today’s offer was a lentil stew and a Mexican wrap. I chose the latter.
Read moreFirst bite - the black beans with rice was very promising! The babaganoush (or equivalent) was another win! The wrap with tofu was another wow factor.
Great food, hospitable people who run the place. What more could one want.

Yummy and fresh with a great ambiance. - Edit
I’ve been trying to get to this place for ages and finally did! The food was generous and delicious. The almond cake with Gila was to die for!!! I will definitely be coming back for more. The place itself is super relaxed with plenty of outdoor seating and the interior is welcoming and quirky. Really good food and lovely staff too. Highly recommend.

Average food - Edit
As a Portuguese, I felt that tourists were treated differently (better somehow)... So I didn't like that. Also I found the food to be just fine, nothing special and the menu very small. It's a pity because the place itself has potential.

Must go while in Faro! - Edit
The food here was excellent. We had a wrap and couscous bowl. Each were well made with quality ingredients. I was able to get a big cup of herbal tea and we finished with the chocolate cake. Great service despite being very busy. My husband who is not vegan, thoroughly enjoyed his meal and would love to return.

Great service and delicious food - Edit
It was my birthday, so we decided to stop by for a vegan cake “unfortunately” they were sold out, which was to our favour, because the chef offered to make me a pancake instead. And lucky me - it was the most delicious pancake with Nutella-like filling, berries and whipped cream! Yummy! They made me feel special on my birthday and for that I am very grateful 💚
Read moreI think you have to come early, because cakes and lemonade was sold out.
Pros: Amazing staff , Delicious food, Cozy atmosphere
Cons: Some options were sold out
