Not special, but some options

We had the drink of the day, which was a delicious Jamaica. And we had a curry, which was mediocre. And some bbq veggies with rice which was nicer. Both not very special though and lacking protein

Great pasta

Following advice from other reviewers on here, I went for the avocado spaghetti. It was simple but tasty - sometimes you just need a big bowl of pasta!

I also had a fresh pineapple juice which was great too!

Pros: Simple, tasty food, Friendly staff

Cons: Vegan items not marked on menu

Great healthy smoothies and food

This place was right by my hostel and perfect for grabbing a healthy juice or smoothie. They’re happy to cater to your tastes and always remember your order if you’re a regular! Love the avocado pasta after a day of trekking!

Pros: Vegan/veggie options, Healthy

Cons: Slow service

Lots of veggies!

Go there! Especially if you are in need for lots of veggies. I lover the stuffed pepper which comes with spinach tomato salad. Pic is of ratatouille I tried next day.

Not expensive and nice people. May make some time between order and serve, but worth the wait.

Incredible average!

Vegetarian and vegan restaurant with very very simple food. I had the pasta fresca which was spaghetti with a huge amount of olive oil and plain tomatoes. My partner had ordered the stuffed mushrooms but they were out so had a stuffed pepper with plain diced tomatoes with plain white rice and a side of... tomato. One fan in the whole place so was very hot especially as was set directly on their kids who were made to take our order and then watch TV with the other ladies!

Pros: Very cheap

Cons: Still not worth the cheap price tag!

Nice breakfast

We had vegan pancakes there for breakfast. Unfortunately the didn't have bananas (which it said on the menu), but the waitress offered us papaya as an alternative, which was nice. They were very good:)
Also my coffee with soy milk tasted well!

Pros: Tasty, Very cheap

Cons: Not best atmosphere

Mweh

It was cheap and it was vegan, but the food wasn't anything special, the coffee was bad and the staff was clearly more interested in the loudly playing cartoons, which was only excusable because they were literally small children...

Pros: Cheap

Cons: Child labour

Vegan pancakes for breakfast!!

Tried looking for a place opened early in the morning and one which served vegan breakfast. Had no luck in Cafe Yax-Ha and as I came out stumbled upon this place. So happy to learn that they had soy milk for my coffee and could make me vegan pancakes with an agave type of syrup. Big portion of three pancakes and a cup of coffee for 40 quetzals. Didn’t check out rest of their menu however they clearly understood what vegan meant and their outside sign had vegan on it so would definitely come in again for lunch or supper. Relaxed, chilled atmosphere with comfy chairs. Great experience!

Pros: Vegan breakfast, Soy milk available, Reasonably priced

Opciones veganas

Muchos platillos se pueden hacerlos veganos, nada más hay que explicarle para no ponerle miel, queso etc. La dueña es muy amable, pero no es ni vegetariana, lo vio como un negocio donde no hay mucha competencia, o sea, intentemos convencerla cuando se va, jeje. El ambiente es súper simple, a veces la televisión está encendida a volumen altísimo, pero vale la pena para comer vegano y barato. La porción de legumbres y el platillo de hongos son suficientes para llenar a uno.

Pros: Barato

Cons: A veces dejan el televisor y volumen altísimo

Lovely place

This place is a really nice, cheap and inviting place for vegans on a budget.
I had the curry which was a simple dish of potatoes, carrots, onion and a curry sauce with rice but for the 30Q I was happy to pay it.
The owner is a lovely lady and I will definitely go back to try other dishes here and some of their drinks which are cheap and sound really nice.
There are also some local style-veganfoods that are displayed as a ‘special of the day’ for around 10Q so if you really don’t want to break the bank this is the spot to go. !
Enjoy!

Pros: Cheap, easy Vegan dishes, Very nice owner; nice space to dine, Satisfying food; easy to find

Solid veg options

We were heading for the bus terminal in preparation for a series of lengthy bus rides (to Guat City->Antigua->Lake Atitlan) so needed serious sustenance to get us through the next 16 hours. Legumbres delivered with delicious options at a reasonable price. Cute and comfortable dining space too. If I'd had more time in Flores, I would have become a repeat customer.

Simple perfection

The interior is quite simple, but charming.
You have dining tables and some spaces to relax.
The food is affordable and you receive big portions of vegan and vegetarian food. All freshly prepared.
Also the staff is really kind and explains the menue if you wish.
We went here two times and enjoyed it!

Pros: affordable , central, freshly made food

Just excellent

Our first day in Guatemala starts witha vegan Jewel.
Having only vegan &vegetarian dishes, it was first choice for us to check.
When the bed called us we didn't wanna go. Such a cute atmosphere, nice people, very good food.

Simple but nice

I went there for dinner and had a mango smoothie (10 Q) and beans with rice (20 Q). The mango smoothie was made with fresh natural fruit. The beans and rice were very simple of course, but tasty and full of nutrition. The other dinner options consist of pizza, pasta and curry. As it says in the description, the decor is simple, but the place has a positive vibe and the waiter/chef was very friendly. Plus, if you are lucky, you get to meet the very cuddly and cute cat of the house! :)

Pros: Only 100% vegetarian place in Flores, Inexpensive and friendly atmosphere

Cons: More options would be nice, Vegan dishes should be clearly marked
