Pourrait être mieux

Options veganes clairement indiquées
Mayo vegane laisse à désirer, peu de goût et très liquide
Burger bon mais pas savoureux
Un peu de savoir faire en plus serait appréciable
Dal Bath bon à priori

La qualité est au rendez vous

Le lieu ne paye pas de mine, il n'y a pas beaucoup de tables comme à d'autres endroits mais il y a une très belle vue sur le lac, les assiettes sont réalisés avec amour et le personnel est très accueillant.

Pros: Variété de plats, Les prix sont plus bas que dans d'autres lieux, Accueil vraiment sympathique

Best cafe with Vegan Options in Pokhara

Probably one of the best vegetarian and vegan cafes in Pokhara! I highly recommend this cafe! 💖

We were welcomed by such friendly and accommodating staff that were very knowledgable of the menu.

Most vegetarian and vegan restaurants around here have pretty steep prices, but we were very happy to see a menu with prices as friendly as their staff. We were even moreso happy to eat our food which was very delicious!

The food was paired perfectly with cozy ambience; with a gorgeous view of the lake, soothing traditional music, and a beautiful willow tree standing elegantly just across our table.

This humble cafe and bar also seemed to be generous with outlets so if you wanted to find a quiet, peaceful, and beautiful place to work for an hour or two, I think this is the best place to do it.

We are definitely coming back to try more food!

Pros: Knowledgeable and accommodating staff , Lots of outlets and wifi to work, Amazing view of the lake

Bland Falafel, nice service

Why did I decided to have a Falafel in Nepal? Since all Nepali restaurants are offering amazing vegetarian food for few dollars, it sounds strange, I know...
I just wanted to have a change after a month of travels... But that was not a good idea... Cardboard taste falafel, OK salad and fries... I'll just stick with Thalis and Mo:mo from now on.

Very accommodating

The menu has a separate Vegan section, but also vegan items throughout. The staff is very friendly and fortunately they are open early- well, earlier than others.

Having taken the night bus from Lumbini, we arrived at 5 AM and were quite hungry by 7. We were glad to find a place which offers plant-based options and they were happy to substitute a cold salad for grilled mushrooms. I was so grateful to have tofu after living off oats 2-3xs a day for almost 2 weeks during my Vipasana retreat where they serve only spicy vegetarian food, most of which consisted of ghee, paneer, and milk. Thank you for the well needed nourishment. The grilled mushrooms were 😍🍄🤤

Very average

Cheap prices but the food isn't great. Got the falafel wrap and the vegan pasta. There are much better places in Pokhara than here

Good food with a view

Cute place with plenty vegan option and a nice view on the lake. The food we ordered was very tasty (vegan Buddha bowl and hummus plate). The juices are fresh but blended so a lot of pieces of veggies were still in there. The Momo were ok but not extraordinary. Very kind staff.

I kept coming back!

Everything I had here was amazing and the staff are so friendly. Beautiful views over the lake and my partner enjoyed non vegan options here. Good prices.
I had the vegan pasta, the vegan burger, and vegan breakfast (only place I've found scrambled tofu and it was way better than I've ever made it and I think I do an alright job!!). All meals full of flavour.

Pros: Flavourful range of vegan options, Good prices, Beautiful views

Best Falafel Wrap and Great Hangout Spot!!!!

The rest point became a regular hangout spot during my 2 weeks in Pokhara. For the vegan options I tried the Mediterranean board , and it was okay, loved the vegan pasta! Also loved the veg. vegan burger, it was delicious and tasty. I tried the hummus as well and it was okay. But the best thing by far, is the falafel wrap. They make truly a great falafel and it's only 280 rps for the wrap with fries and a small salad.

Pros: Cheap prices , Many vegan varieties and menu options, Nice backpacker hangout

Cons: Small portions on a few things, Don't do the cocktails or happy hour

bit tasteless

We were first very excited about reading all the vegn options here when we arrived. the menu sounded amazing.
but the food turned out a bit disappointing. felt like they just threw some veggies together and arranged it pretty. was a bit tasteless. we definitely go for more local food again. but there might be ppl who like it this way :)
the location and the view are pretty nice tough.

Pros: lot of vegan options, nice lake view

Cons: not really tasty

Veganes Frühstück

Direkt am See und das Essen kam Recht schnell. Das vegane Frühstück in Kombination mit Avocadotoast hat zwei Leute satt gemacht.

Pros: Guter Preis, Relativ große Portion

Cons: Etwas angebrannt

splendid

Got the buddha bowl. really delicious and awesome. Heck yes… i also like the string lights i wanted to wrap myself up in them. on top of that i loved gazing at the lake and all the passersby. however i really truly hate to mention this but there wasn’t enough sauce . and if vegans love anything it’s sauce. so maybe if u traipse over here get the buddha bowl and ask for extra sauce. i loved how the tiny entrance opened up into a little delightful chair garden with twinkling lights . good eats

Fave little hangout spot

My partner and I have eaten here multiple times. The staff are really kind and attentive and there are many vegan options on the menu. We've had the buddha bowl, burger and spinach and mushroom wrap, all delicious and good portions. There is a really nice view of the lake and good wifi.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, good wifi, cosy, kind staff

Cons: No plant based milk

Poor quality food, small sizes, great location

Vegan food clearly labelled on menu. Great location overlooking lake, and okay prices given the location. I ordered the special of the day... poor quality, overcooked food and small portion sizes. Disappointing

Solid option

Ate here several times in the last month. The food is nothing amazing but good enough. Prices are also super cheap for the lake front, other restaurants nearby are charging 2-3 times more for the same thing. Our favourite dishes were the vegan wrap, curry with chapati from the simple breakfast option and vegan pasta 2. With ambient music playing in the background it’s a nice place to relax for a while looking over the lake.

Pros: lots of vegan options , very cheap, lake views

Good find

We really enjoyed our clearly labelled vegan burger and wrap. They weren't perfect, but a nice Nepalese interpretation of them. Fantastic spot by the lake.

Pros: vegan options, cheap, friendly staff
