Leckeres Curry und Kottu - Edit
Wir hatten zwei ausgezeichnet vegane Gerichte: Curry und Kottu. Vegane Optionen sind klar gekennzeichnet. Die Portionen waren nicht riesig, aber die zwei Gerichte waren auch deutlich günstiger als andere. Sehr schön zum sitzen. #Veganuary

the food is amazing, and the place itself really vibe-y with couches and other seating options over four floors. the staff is nice too and parts of the proceeds of the daily vegan cake go to a local animal rescue organisation 🩷 the chocolate cake was superb. its also a good place to work at

Delicious jackfruit burger - Edit
Jackfruit burgers were very tasty and huge! Plus fun to be able to personalise your burger. In general good amount of vegan options and labelling. Friendly and attentive staff despite the busyness of the restaurant. You might need to wait 5-10 mins for a table.

Too sweet for us but lots of vegan options! - Edit
We tried the pancakes and the peanut butter smoothie bowl. Pancakes were yummy but the smoothie bowl was way too sweet for us. However overall good experience, friendly staff and loved the blue sky tea !

The best in Ella - Edit
We went there twice in 3 possible times. Everything is very tasty. Not so many vegan options but enough to go there more than once.

Delicious and clearly labeled - Edit
I went to the rainbow cafe several times and loved the location. They offer 3 Sri Lankan dishes the rest is all rather western. From 5-6 they offer a happy hours deal - buy one, get one free.

Delicious and plentiful vegan options - Edit
We came here for lunch and had Tropical Feelings mocktail to drink and Tropical Thunder for main. My boyfriend also had the curry in a hurry and a coffee & banana milkshake. Sadly the milkshakes and lassies couldn’t be veganised despite alternative milks being available as they include ice cream and buffalo curd. But there were loads of other options to choose from - including MULTIPLE VEGAN DESSERTS! I highly recommend the Tropical Feelings drink. Note that portion sizes are large. I could only eat half of the delicious sago mango dessert 🥲

What a gem - Edit
A busy Cafe spread over three floors. A coffee shop at the front. Lots of choice. Presentation of the meals. The build your own burger was great and not seem anything like it (there were more options than a burger patty).

a dream - Edit
We’ve been here a couple of times and both food and service were always great. Heaps of vegan options and 50% of the profits from the cake of the day is donated to shelter dogs. The chocolate cake was surprisingly good, not too sweet, very decadent and filling. Avocado toast and jackfruit burger were also delicious. Great atmosphere and a good taste in music hehe definitely recommend!

So great for vegans! - Edit
They have so many vegan options clearly labeled! We went there three times and had the vegan burgers, scrambled tofu, pancakes, avocado toast and smoothie bowl. Everything was great! Because this place is so great it can be difficult to get a seat but the staff is very friendly and eager to get you a place to sit, once we had to wait just a few minutes.

Cons: Lassi was too sweet , Water was quite expensive

The waiters are not just not what you expect from a waiter. They just smile, look at you and walk away instead of taking an order.

Delicious - Edit
I really liked the food here. It was a bit more expensive for Sri Lanka standards but it was delicious and I can really recommend going there! Everything was clearly labelled if vegan or not! The staff was friendly and and there were 3 floors and nicely decorated. They even had games to play while waiting for the food.

Very very vegan friendly - Edit
I can say there are more vegan options than carnivorous ones. We had the baby jackfruit patty burger and it was awesome, and the gnocchi with pumpkin sauce, that were very well cooked even if not a local dish.

Pros: Jackfruit burger, Cold beer, The guys speak English
