My favorite fully plant-based restaurant - Edit
Small but pleasant atmosphere. I have been going here for 12 years and have never been disappointed.
Read moreWhat was originally a limited selection has now grown substantially. My favorite is the more recently-introduced ham sandwich. Just fantastic!
Pleasant staff.
Why do plant-based restaurants assume everyone is vegan for health reasons, and only serve 'healthy' drinks costing ₽200/$3 ? How about soft drinks or reasonably-priced juices? As an ethical vegan I just choose the free water.
Pros: Everything
Cons: Expensive drinks except the free water

Not bad - Edit
The Mac and cheese needed some more kick and while the protein toastie fell apart, the flavor was good

Our Favourite restaurant in El Nido - Edit
This was by far our favorite restaurant in El Nido. It’s fully vegan and has a small, cozy setting with a really relaxed vibe. There are a few tables outside and also a seating area upstairs where you remove your shoes and sit on cushions on the floor, which was very cool and chill.
Read moreWe ate here twice and honestly wish we could have gone more often. Unfortunately, they close earlier than many other restaurants, so we couldn’t go for late dinners.
The food was incredible. We had the banoffee waffles twice because they were sooo good! The mac and cheese was very comforting and delicious. We also had a smoothie bowl which was big, refreshing, and perfect for the hot weather.
The highlight for us was the high protein toastie, it was honestly the best toastie ever. So much flavor and absolutely to die for. I wish we had gone back just for that!
The staff were very kind and professional as well.
Amazing food and a great place to visit in El Nido. Highly recommend.

Taste El Nido - Edit
Excellent Caesar salad with a surprisingly large (and very welcomed) amount of vegan protein (tofu). The sandwich was great too.

Mac & cheese fix here - Edit
Caesar salad was very tasty too. Small table downstairs, but has more big Upstairs dining section. Simple menu with a few options compared to ver de and Aubrie’s. Staff ok, they seemed tired of foreign vegan customer immersion lol, and Staff has no desire to ever be vegan (as usual in all PH vegan cafes).
Read morePros: Mac, Easy menu decisions, Easy location
Cons: Small crowded table downstairs

Tasty food - Edit
Good food, loved the smoothiebowls and buritobowl. Some portions can be a bit small and leaves you feeling hungry, which is sad for that price.
Read moreChoice of oat or soymilk for your coffee, choco or proteinshake.
Friendly people, good airco!

ordered the tofu wrap and it was packed full of tofu and tasted really good. the coffee wasn’t great but it’s hard to find great coffee here. The smoothie bowls also looked so good and wish i’d came back for one

Meh - Edit
Not really sure what all the high reviews are about. The place is very small with upstairs seating consisting of you just sitting on cushions on the floor and downstairs there's just one table. Three of us ordered, 2 having the mac & cheese but they had ran out of bread so the 2nd mac & cheese came about 10mins later.
Read moreThe mac & cheese was very average but filling so that's a plus. From the pictures their breakfasts look better but probably won't be returning for savoury food.

A Vegan Delight with a Cozy Touch! - Edit
I had an amazing experience at this place! The Burrito Bowl was absolutely fantastic, packed with fresh flavors and completely vegan. The staff was incredibly friendly, making the visit even more enjoyable. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, with comfortable seating and even board games to enjoy while you eat. It’s the perfect spot to relax, have a great meal, and enjoy good company. If you're looking for delicious vegan food in a warm and welcoming setting, I highly recommend this place!

Good but overpriced - Edit
Nice little restaurant with not the most comfy furniture. They should really improve this. Love the paintings of “go vegan” though!
Read moreThey could make some improvements in the food for this price. The smoothie bowls are too boring. They could use more toppings. The Buddha bowl I had was good, but dry and not very tasty.
Overall a lot of potential but they need to upgrade the quality!

Cosy place - Edit
There is cozy and welcoming atmosphere, tasty caffe, wifi. No card payment. But its one of those places who scam you for milk. Sometimes they charge for either soy or oat without informing you. Manu price is a lie.
