Healthy vegan food - Edit
You can buy food by weight, get a piece of pizza or eat a cake. Unfortunatelly there's no coffee but you can get a tea or cold drinks. Everything is ready to eat so you don't have to wait.

Dead after 6pm? - Edit
Staff was friendly and spoke English.
Read moreNo menu available, I guess, but staff was willing to explain everything.
I came at 6pm and the kitchen was closed though they still had desserts, some prepared sandwiches and buffet left. I went with grilled vegetables and rice from the buffet, which was neither good nor bad.
At some point they started playing bland chamber music.

It's good, but there's no escaping the weird. - Edit
I like this place, but there's two major factors that can be off-putting:
Read more1) Almost all the food is cold and it shouldn't be.
2) It's an Adventist run restaurant with plenty of god-hurling-thunderbolts pamphlets around the place and one particular, chatty staff member who may initiate awkward conversations with you about it.
Regarding the first, there is both a hot and cold bain-marie, but the hot one is down the back with curry, lentil and etc dishes, and you may not notice it, and it may also be empty by the time you arrive. I ate here many times and never managed to get a hot meal. The main bain-marie at the front of the counter is filled with cold, cooked food that doesn't get reheated when you buy it. Sometimes this is fine (pizza, the burgers are quite good cold) but sometimes it's not (the potato-based dishes are tastless unless heated). I have no idea why they sell mostly cold food that should be eaten hot.
Regarding the second, well... there may be elements of Adventist beliefs that you don't like that may come up regardless of you wanting them to or not. To be fair, it only happened once, but I sure didn't initiate it, and it got awkward when I professed total disinterest in very conservative religious practices.
The mains (cold or otherwise) are above average and some dishes are excellent. The service is generally good, most of the staff have very good English, there is a huge range of vegan desserts and prices are pretty good. You can also buy in-house tofu and seitan and locally made vegan sausage, which are good but are preservative free so need to be consumed within a few days.
While they are open until 8pm there is often very little food left after about 6pm and they don't prepare more. Early close on Friday and being closed all day Saturday is pretty inconvenient considering the other vegan options in Skopje.
My tip: if you have an oven or microwave at your home buy early in the day and takeaway for reheating for dinner at home. Especially on Fridays.
The in-house music is terrible, terrible blandly inoffensive cafe jazz that makes me cry.
Pros: Good mains, great desserts, good prices
Cons: Almost everything is cold for some reason, awkward discussions on conservative religion, Old Testament prophets watching you eat

They said it’s all vegan dishes ✌🏻 - Edit
I went here a few times. I really recommend it. Nice atmosphere.
Read moreOrdered several meals. Tasty and fairly priced.
I wish the food in the fridge/ shelf would be also written in English, but i understand it might be too much.

Good, simple food, mostly (or entirely?) vegan - Edit
The place is nice, clean, and bright, and very central. There's a fair variety of food, and much of it is straightforward and simple. I ate from the by-weight offerings (9 choices, and I mixed and matched) - eggplant, idli, pulao, though there were other choices on the menu, as well as a selection of sweets. Everything is well-marked, but only in Macedonian - easy for Cyrillic readers, but less so for others. The sweets were also marked as gluten free, honey free, and one other category I forget.
Read moreEverything is 'vegan' - but the honey-free marking suggest some of the sweets may have honey; I didn't investigate that, though they looked good.
Prices were good for a central location. A reasonably full plate cost me about 250 denars ($4-5).
Pros: Mostly or entirely vegan (maybe honey), Ingredients well described, Nice, simple setting
Cons: Ingredient description only in Macedonian

The best vegan restaurant in Skopje - Edit
The restaurant offers an impressive range of vegan dishes: from burritos to pies and cooked dishes to healthy desserts and homemade drinks. They even sell different kinds of homemade tofu.
Read moreI visited Paradise Food shortly before they were about to close and I still could have some food and a piece of cake (the pistachio cake was honestly the best thing I had). Staff was super friendly and the place itself looks like a very hip place to have lunch, but in fact it was more than affordable.
Pros: Amazing variety of vegan dishes, Heavenly desserts, Lovely staff and modern interior design

Delicious deserts - Edit
We went to Paradise Food on a Sunday at 6pm. There was not much choice left, but whatever we did get was good. The only disappointment is that the food was not very warm.
Read moreI loved the deserts. We tried an orange cake and coconut cheesecake with raspberry.
Everything is vegan except for some desserts that contain honey.
Pros: Good price, Lovely deserts , Enough seating
Cons: Not much choice by the end of the day, Food wasn’t very warm

Okay but pretty flavorless - Edit
The food is mainly cakes, and for "bigger hungers" there is not much choice. The food was nice, but a bit bland and flavorless to be honest. We had a pizza slice, a quiche and a pita but somehow they all tasted kind of the same. Staff didn't speak English, so it's helpful if you know some Macedonian or know how to point really well.😉It's nice that they are open on Sunday, as not many veggie places in Skopje are.

Best options before noon - Edit
Paradise Food is a solid choice for reasonably healthy takeaway. They seem to have several shops in the Balkans (I’ve been to 3 of them) and they seem to operate in a similar way.
Read moreThey do have a lot of options to choose from, however the choice gets worse throughout the day. I visited this venue at 2pm and they were ALREADY sold out most of their dishes.

Yummy and cheap - Edit
Nice deli-style restaurant with a rotating menu of cuisines. First day I went they served “Asian” hot dishes which you choose by weight. All those were delicious! The next time the food was Mediterranean and wasn’t quite as good. They also have lots of raw cakes for dessert.
