decent/average - Edit
The owners of this restaurant are very passions about veganism, and the food that they have is really good, but they don't have many options available, and only 1 gluten free option , so if u are going just remember that the menu is very simple

veggiedawwg 13 Oct 2016 - Hi healthy vegan girl, thank you for coming out to check out our cafe!
If you make it back in, we do offer a whole list of gluten-free options such as our buddha bowl, pulled pork sandwich, grilled cheez sandwich! Not to mention our healthy Kale Caesar Salad with gluten free coconut veggie prawns & gluten free mac & cheese. Oh also our house-marinted portobello burger. We are happy to accommodate many and most diet restrictions!
Thank you for your feedback!

Excellent Experience! - Edit
Happy to have discovered this place! Potato salad was on special, and it was incredible; it tasted like the regular version. Menu isn't too big but lots of variety. I'd go back in a second!
Pros: Nice selection of beverages

Yes! Will be back soon! - Edit
A vegan sheesha cafe in downtown Kelowna? Love it! The menu has so many options with items that can't be found anywhere else in the Okanagan. It's delicious and full of flavour and even my omni friends enjoyed it.
I quite enjoy sheesha and I don't know of any other places in Kelowna that offer it, so this is a perk. If you don't like or haven't tried sheesha, don't feel that you need to do it when you are there. It's perfectly alright to visit just for the food. Even if other people are smoking it, the smell is quite pleasant (not like tobacco at all, more like a faint incense smell).
My one issue is that I wish the space could be renovated to be a bit more chic. It could still be casual just more... complete I guess.
Other than that, I look forward to returning to try out more on the menu! I am especially excited to visit for breakfast...
Pros: So many vegan options!, Sheesha - optional, Delicious
Cons: The space could use an update

First stop for a vegan in Kelowna - Edit
So happy I came here, the burgers my partner and I ordered (hula burger and the naked burger) were just delicious - and came with a bonus 'caesar' salad each. Drinks are on the pricey side but definitely worth it. Fresh and awesome place to visit. Made it our first vegan stop in Downtown Kelowna!
Pros: Amazing food, great service
Cons: Expensive

What we've been waiting for! - Edit
My family visited Naked Cafe recently and we were so happy with both the food and the service. The owners were great and made us feel very welcome. The menu had good variety and reminded us of a vegan pub or family restaurant. My daughter was excited to order whatever she wanted off the menu and thrilled when she asked for "crispy tenders and french fries" and actually got them. She's at that fussy little kid stage, so most vegan restaurants and vegan-friendly restaurants (raw, ethnic, etc.) don't appeal to her. It was nice to see her feel catered to by a restaurant for once. The rest of us adults tried the burgers, tortilla soup, Caesar salad, spring rolls and no-tuna wraps. It was all delicious!
Pros: Awesome owners, Simple food prepared well
Cons: No dessert!

Youthful vibe, excellent fresh food, cruelty free - Edit
I ate here 5 times in 5 days, and will be back many more times!!! Why its so great is in general, everywhere I have been, it's hard to find vegan restaurants who serve everyday normal things that everyone eats, only its vegan!!!
The teriyaki rice bowl was best rice bowl I've ever had, the coconut rice with it was so delicious. Their homemade caesar dressing was incredible, never had caesar in a restaurant before because it's never vegan, so it was awesome to be able to order that.
The fish and chips with homemade tartar sauce is killer great.
Bakon cheeseburger and hula burger were fantastic. I need to try everything else because what I've had I love. Really hope people check it out so many many more animals will be saved as meat eaters will try it and like it.
The fact no animal products are cooked in that kitchen makes me enjoy the food all the more knowing my food is not touching or being cooked or prepared around meat.
The sisters that opened this restaurant are purpose driven. :)
Pros: homemade sauces/dressings, ALL VEGAN, Relaxed, fun, licensed, youthful
Cons: wish they were open 7 days/week, look forward to vegan desserts, hope they get outdoor seating for summer

Kelowna's New Vegan HQ - Edit
I'm excited about this place! The owners & staff are friendly and enthusiastic about veganism and animal welfare. Drinks are a little on the expensive side, although where else can you order a vegan caesar? The food is very reasonably priced. I had the tacos since I was there for "Taco Tuesday". Hopefully they'll put that on their regular menu! I could see this place becoming the default lunch & hangout spot for vegans in Kelowna. It's very casual and has different seating options. Anyone with a plant-based diet who lives in Kelowna will probably appreciate Naked Cafe. I've got to try everything on their menu... I'll be returning soon =)
Pros: 100% vegan, reasonably-priced menu, Enthusiastic staff, Cafe, bar and restaurant all in 1
Cons: Drinks are a bit expensive, It could use a little interior design

New favorite lunch spot - Edit
So happy to find a place that I can rely on to get vegan food on a regular basis. The amount of food I eat it is super helpful to have a place I can just grab takeout from. The menu is great for vegn curious friends, as they have lots of burgers and sandwiches that are all vegan.
Pros: Cool staff, Versatile menu, good value

Fast Food-Vegan Food - Edit
The owners of this vegan cafe Olivia and Teghan are extremely friendly and are both former ballerinas. I rated them 5/5 because their vegan cafe is going head to head with the vegan version of fast food or pub food. They are not focused on health food but tell me they will have healthier options in the near future such as a mediterranean quinoa salad. They do have a ceasar salad ($8) for a healthier option. Currently they also have bakon cheeze burgers ($11), spring rolls ($6), terriyaki rice bowls ($11), chili ($7), filet-no-fish ($11), chikin nuggets & fries ($9), sweet potato fries ($7), etc. Their main protein is soy, but again this sounds like it will change. They also have a full coffee bar with a choice of cashew, almond, or soy milk. You can also have a shot of something stronger because they are licensed as well.
Pros: Friendly Staff, fast service, vegan-no cross contamination
Cons: main protein-soy, lack of healthy food
