Not vegan friendly BE CAREFUL - Edit
Literally worst experience of my life. I’m vegan, allergic to onion and garlic.
Read moreAt first I ordered scrumbles tofu with avocado asking many times if had onion and garlic, they said no.
The plates arrives full of onion and garlic.
Then I ordered a vegan bun with mashrooms, after two bites I realised it was CHICKEN. I’ve been vegan all my life and is never happened to me, I’m totally traumatised because of it. A life without meat and now because of their mistake this happened and they even had the face of telling me “you ordered chicken”.
Little plus. I ordered avocado slices 2 times and a coke. Never arrived.
Our friends wine, never arrived.
Vegan friendly place, literally bullshits
Pros: Nothing
Cons: Gave me chickens saying it was mashrooms

Delicious healthy vegan food - Edit
Delicious food in such a cool setting! Lots of levels to this restaurant where you can overlook the street and town in Ella. We loved it so much we went back twice! Loads of amazing vegan options, we tried the tacos, open lettuce wraps, falafel, nachos, pesto pasta and vegan choc cake over the two times we visited. The tacos and nachos were our favourite. Service was also fab!

Lots of vegan options and tasty! - Edit
Definitely a focus on vegan options, which is lovely to see and run by a local family.
Read moreWe had the oatmeal pancakes and the chickpea flour omelette with added tofu and avocado. Both were great with generous portions. Lovely juice and good iced coffee. Every day, they have a vegan cake of the day (chocolate is pictured), and 50% goes to the local dog charity, which is fabulous!

Food was nice but definitely had dairy in it - Edit
We had a lovely meal here whilst in Ella. Burgers and chips and chocolate cake for dessert. Food tasted nice and service was prompt. Unfortunately my son and I had a bad stomach less than an hour later. Which is a key indicator that it had dairy in it. Wouldn't go back here again.
Read moreCons: Definitely was given dairy 🤮😷

Nice vegan options - Edit
I am a little embarrassed to admit, but I ate here five times over three days. Quite a few vegan options allowed for a different dining experience each visit. Excellent service. The tofu sandwich is delicious.

BEST PLACE IN ELLA! - Edit
Tiny place but very cute and colorful! Unfortunately we can't give 5 stars, they would have been well deserved since the menu is almost completely vegan. I so appreciated this and the fact that there were so many gluten-free choices as well. We had two burgers, one with curries vegan meatballs and the other with fried chuncky mushrooms: both tasted great but the second one was spacey!
Read morePrices quite low, we will be back for dinner to try the vegan cake ☺️

She is like a rainbowww - Edit
Dont waste your time going anywhere if you want western foods, these guys know what they are doing. If you are after sri lankan food, this place is not for you, only 3 dishes. I ordered the sri lanka curry and it was delicious nevertheless. The gnocchis were also sooo good. Good for meat eaters too.
Read morePros: Gnocci

Delicious food - might need to wait for table - Edit
Very cool little place over 3 floors. I had the tofu burger on a bagel and vegan coleslaw and my BF had the crispy mushroom burger. Both really tasty and decent sized portions😄you might need to wait a little while for a table (we waited about 15 mins) but worth it! They also donate some of the tips to Dogs of Ella which is very cool 😎

Loads of options - Edit
I would rate it 5 stars if I could, but apparently because its not fully veggie its a maximum of 4. Loads of vegan options (Sri Lankan and others) and a delicious aubergine katsu

Vegan chocolate cake - Edit
I’ve not tried any of the main dishes here but I really enjoyed the vegan chocolate cake. It was covered with toasted seeds and a dark chocolate sauce. It wasn’t a traditional tasting chocolate cake but still really good.
