CLOSED: Shambala

We enjoyed our first rawganic lunch sat in the sunshine outside Shambala yesterday. Highly recommend you try it too, rain or shine, you won’t be disappointed. . . .

I love this place. Great food, great portions, great people. I'm not a veggie or even a vegan but the range and quality of food here is better than most meaty food places have to offer. Here every ingredient is genuinely chosen for it's healthy nutrients and the staff know and can tell you the ingredients and recipe for every dish. I pop by mostly in my work lunch break. portions are massive, prices are great value for money. I almost want to turn vegan so I can eat at Shambala more often :)

I've both eaten in and taken away lunch from shambala and on both occasions had a great experience. All the food is freshly made with love and care and it shows!
Eating in was great in the lovely relaxing atmosphere.
Gaz and Stef know their stuff and love what they do.
Recommended Shambala to other friends and their experience was positive too.
Will be back very soon xx

I was delighted when I found out that a new Vegetarian Restaurant would be opening soon in Warrington and I must say that Shambala has far surpassed all my expectations. This is THE best place in Warrington to get a delicious and reasonably priced vegan meal. I like it so much that I usually visit at least once a week at lunchtime and also buy a take-away salad box for my evening meal that day. The vegan desserts are amazing too! The owners, Stef and Gaz, are very welcoming to everyone, giving the place a lovely atmosphere which you can feel the minute you walk in. Highly recommended to anyone who wants a healthy and delicious meal in a stress-free environment.

I found out about Shambala only 3 weeks ago, I have always wanted a place like this in our town as I am sick of the boring mainstream cafe's which sell unhealthy food.
I am so glad I went to Shambala, I always go now. I absolutely love their food. How many commercial places would you see that would make lovely food like this that is raw and organic? None! I love all their dishes and they are big portions, the desserts are delicious!

Eating raw/vegan/vegetarian is a new part of my heath journey so I arrived at Shambala a bit nervous. The owners could not have been more hospitable and helpful. They allowed me to taste new foods at no cost and inspired me to eat again it was the 1st time in 4 years after major surgery I felt I could truly recover I couldn't give this establishment a high enough recommendation that would reflect my gratitude for their attitude.

I've been back to Shambala many of times and will continue doing so. The food is great and everything is explained thoroughly. There's so much choice and the food comes in a very generous portion. You can also buy organic vegetables there too. You can spend hours in Shambala, with plenty of books to read and instruments on the walls that you can play. Shambala is more than a cafe, it's like an open house and Stef and Gaz treat you like family.

I had a great time when I visited Shambala. The food was super tasty and I was served with a smile and a giggle over how much I hate cucumber! Huge portion was super full and super happy. Will definitely return.

Set in a colourful, relaxed and happy setting, this place offers a rather wide variety of original vegan and vegetarian food, made from organic and raw materials. Initially over the moon of having such a place in Warrington, this place seems to make the same mistake as so many other 'health' and natural-oriented establishments: they come with a ridiculously high price tag for the amounts of food they offer.Good, healthy food should be available to all, not just catered to the alternative elite.This is very much at odds with the 'one peaceful, sustainable world'-ethic Shambala appears to carry.

I visited the lovely, newly opened Shambala earlier this week. The food is mainly raw - they had cooked potatoes on the menu the day we went - and the food hydrator was working happily in plain view behind the server. There are countless options of "sides" and the main on offer when I visited was mushroom stroganoff - sensationally tasty!!!
Water from a dispenser is available free of charge.
The owners are extremely helpful and happy to explain their dishes which are made and presented with obvious joy and love.
My sister and I had a delicious lunch in delightful surroundings. A new taste experience. Lovely!!!
