Must visit in the area - Edit
Great selection on the menu, generous helpings, delicious smoothies and food. There didn't seem to much in the way of Guatemalan dishes, but we left feeling taken care of regardless.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Edit
Nice to find a 100% vegan restaurant on the lake. Menu was large. I had the club sandwich and chili cheese fries. Wish we were staying in San Pedro to go again.

We really liked it here, was very big portions and very tasty, I got the parma chickun sandwich and it was so nice, whatever the cheez was (cashew I think) it was soooo tasty 🤤🤤🤤 my partner got the seitan burger and was happy too! Reasonable price for a tourist town too.

Best vegan food I’ve had in Guatemala - Edit
Amazing vegan food above a cute health food shop! I had the chicken sandwich on a bagel with garlic chips (delicious and great value), and they’re the only place I’ve seen so far that offers a Beyond Burger which a friend had and said was great. Will be returning, if only for the homemade Snickers from the shop downstairs which has changed my life and I have stocked up on for my Acatenango hike next week!

So many options!! - Edit
I couldn't believe the amount of options were available at this place! From loaded fries, to burgers, to rice bowls, to salads, and more. Everything we had was delicious. I had a peanut and maple syrup rice bowl and my partner had a club sandwich with garlic green beans on the side. We also shared some loaded fries (not pictured) which had beans, guacamole and cheeze on them - sooo good! They've got seating on the first floor and then the second floor (on the roof) which provided a nice recluse away from the thumping San Pedro strip.

Amazing vegan sandwich and burger - Edit
Was so impressed with the food at salud para Vida that went back several times. Firstly tried the barbecue chicken and Italian sausage sandwich which were both delicious and full of flavour. Went back the following day for dinner and ordered the avocado bacon cheez burger and the beyond meat deal burger with chips. Both were amazing definitely one of the best vegan burgers I have ever had. The shop downstairs also has some great vegan deserts and snacks however not everything is vegan.

Vegan fast food heaven - Edit
Almost too many delicious sounding options to choose from here. The bbq pizza with vegan chicken chunks was perfect, as was the comically large plate of loaded fries. Vegan snickers bar for desert was so decadent.

They have vegemite! - Edit
A good health food store with a bulk section, handmade vegan cheeses (yummy but just okay), some violife cheeses and beyond products! DELICIOUS bagels. Expensive, but as expected for a healthfood store on a tourist island. I didn't try the restaurant but most excitedly, they have vegemite! Small Jars and quite expensive but they were on sale, very nice after being away form Australia for 14 months! Would have loved to try the restaurant, maybe next time.

The only true and vegan spot! - Edit
Had some dishes there the last days. Everything was good and healthy. Friendly staff.
Read moreThere is a shop for reusable kitchen stuff and bottles upstairs and some old books, downstairs is a shop, where you can buy organic food and supplements. I warmly recommend the vegan homemade "snickers" and the cakes (frozen, they first have to melt).
Pros: Food, staff, prices

Their bagel sandwich with tempeh was delicious! Wish I had bought some of their bagels from the shop below. Fresh fruit smoothie also delish!

Shop downstairs - Edit
Restaurant was closed when I was there, but shop downstairs was opened. They have tempeh, tofu, good choice of home made vegan sweets, spreads, cheese. And a lot of other items such as ready meals, sweets, milks, probiotics, mock meat or supplements and many more. Prices are european, sometimes items quite high. Variety of products is better than most convenient shops in guatemala.

Amazing place - Edit
The place is beautiful, especially the terrace. Also the food is nice, they’ve got vegan cheese and meat. The burgers are not that big but good for a snack. Also in the store downstairs you can find vegan self made chocolate bars and cakes. These are also very delicious (find them in the fridge).

Me pedí un buffalo chicken cheesesteak sub para llevar y estaba riquísimo! Picante, rico y bien aliñado. Si no cerraran tan temprano habría venido todos los días para la cena, muy recomendado.

Lovely place! - Edit
Lovely place with a few floors including a nice rooftop. Everything is made in house including vegan cheeses and meats. We had the chicken teriyaki sandwich and Alfredo pasta with BBQ chicken. Everything was nice and the seitan was really good, pasta was good but nothing amazing.
Read moreNote: Drinks can be sweetened with bee pollen so the place isn't 100% vegan. The shop downstairs also sells non vegan items.

So many options - Edit
This spot has an extensive menu, there's pasta, burgers, sandwiches, salads, etc. I went in twice, had the Mac and cheese, salad, and a burger - all were great. With the burgers you can choose the pattie and bread you want, and toppings, lots of options. I didn't love the peanut brownie bar, too sweet for me. You can pay by card with a mark up here, or PayPal and zelle.
