So much energy! - Edit
Celia is such a beautiful human, she has so much energy and love to give and it shows in her products. We came here twice, the first for lunch where I had a delicious pineapple curry and a mellow yellow cake. Our second visit was for the chocolate divine which was as described - divine!
Read morePros: Wonderful service, Delicious food
Cons: The cakes ran out quick!

Nice little place with a special energy - Edit
The owner has such a special energy and makes the place come alive thanks for that and for creating a space with vegan treats when there are so few options i town🙏☺️
Read moreGot a nice hot chocolate and a lemon/cinnamon cake. Personally I enjoy my lemon cake a little more lemony but that is preference and it was all over very nice. One of the few places in town that has vegan cheese on the menu, didn't get to try any of it though.

Yum! - Edit
Celia is an absolute treasure! What a friendly, wonderful person. I just felt great after ordering. Ok, so the food. I tried all three vegan cakes that were out that day, and they were all delicious. Not overly sweet and with a great texture. The gluten free cake also had a great texture, which I consider somewhat of an achievement. Definitely a good option for sweet treats.

A Gem in Sámara - Edit
Came back to Sámara after two years to find our favourite “LOVE BURGER” vegan restaurant is no longer since Covid.
Read moreWas delighted to find Sweeties by Celia! Mostly she has baked goods with vegan and GF options, vegan ice creams, juices and a limited food menu. Daily there is a meat dish and a vegan dish and they can come as either a burrito or as a dinner with rice and salad. The main dish for both the veg and the meat change daily. We had a vegan Tikka Masala and the salad was a flavourful coleslaw that complemented it nicely. They were both very enjoyable and tasty. They were accommodating of swapping the rice for extra salad for me. A small kitchen and food is cooked in advance so customizations would be a challenge.
My dining companion had the vegan GF chocolate cake and said it was very good too.
Celia, the chef and staff are all very attentive and fast. The setting and ambience are casual, trendy and comfortable.
I plan to go again.
Pros: Excellent price, Charming and kind owner, Delicious

Must stop if in the area - Edit
Great little spot with changing menu every 2 days, vegan desserts, and non dairy milks. Celia is so sweet as well as everyone else who works there. Chocolate cake is the best and I ate it everyday for a week. Very affordable prices too.

Its been our experience that if the people at a restaurant are kind then the food is always an enjoyable experience. The kindness spills over into the food! It’s a small place with a few vegan options, but what she had was very good.

Lovely vegan/vegetarian options! - Edit
Sweeties by Celia is such a charming little food truck with very tasty vegan/vegetarian options (which is not that easy to find in Sámara.) Celia and Phillippe are very friendly and they work hard to please their customers. We love to go there for their vegan curries, Thai veggies etc in burrito form or in a platter. Their cakes and cold brew are delicious too. We're lucky to have them in Sámara.
