good vibe and some real vegan options

As I wrote before, Yerevan is not a vegan and vegetarian heaven and it is awesome that a place like this exists where vegan options are clearly marked on the menus like several wraps, dips, soy milk drinks and at the time of my visit, a vegan banana bread cake. The prices are relatively expensive though for what is the average cost for food in Yerevan. Nevertheless the vibe is good, the decor very modern and fresh and the food tastes good. Loved my soup served in a bowl of bread.

Pros: vibe and decor , vegan options marked on the menu, central location

Cons: relatively expensive for Yerevan , not that many vegan options

Unfortunately not really green!

For a company claiming to be green they are pretty anti-green with only few vegan options and plastic straws. Hummus wrap is nice, nothing special though. Only 1 vegan dessert out of many and lots of meat and dairy products on their menu. They also charge almost 1$ extra for soy milk, which doesn't fit to their claim of being eco-friendly and seems an oxymoron!

Good food and atmosphere

Very nice café with vegan and vegetarian options - the options are also marked on the menu which is very handy.
I had the veggie/hummus wrap and it tasted very good. They also have good ice tea/lemonade for warm summer days.
As a bonus they have a lot of power plugs so you can charge your phone and work on your laptop.

Pros: - good options that are clearly labelled

Nice atmosphere

This is a really cute cafe with a great vibe. There were a couple of vegan options. We got the Taboule quinoa salad and I got a veggie wrap. They were pretty small portions leaving us hungry still. They have soy milk for coffee.

Really dissapointed that they pitch a green objective but still give plastic straws.

Pros: English speaking staff, good coffee with soy milk

Cons: Plastic straws, small portions.

Vegan Safeplace in Armenia

The only place I know about where staff actually understands what vegan is. They have great coffee with plant milk. A few vegan dishes on the menu and usually some banana vegan muffins - very tasty.

Tasty cosy safehaven

I went here after struggling to find much to eat in Yerevan the previous days (unless you're with local Armenians who can negotiate for you, it's not easy to be vegan here, especially if you also don't speak Russian). So I was very happy to find this place. It's central location is very convenient. I had a wrap, a three bean salad and apple slices with homemade peanut butter. The three bean salad was delicious and filling but it was marked vegan while also containing honey so this is important to know for vegans who don't want to make any exceptions. The homemade peanut butter was uttlery delicious and I would have taken lots of it home... Like other reviews mentioned, this place is a little bit more expensive than average Yerevan food prices. The eco friendliness of this place is a definite plus.

Pros: central location, english menu with clear labels, tasty

Cons: slightly pricey, not many options for vegans

Cozy Eco-friendly cafe in Yerevan

After exploring the city for a few days, I was quite happy to finally forgo the plain espresso from every other cafe and order a soy cappuccino. They can make soy frappes too! In terms of food, most of the menu is vegetarian, but there are only a couple of vegan options (as of August 2013 a grilled veggie and hummus wrap, apple slices with peanut butter, and a snack of spicy roasted peanuts). However, there are a few vegan cakes on display at the counter. I had the banana and it was pretty good but nothing to write home about...on the other hand it's the first vegan cake I've seen in this city. The cafe also sells locally made gifts and is part of a number of green initiatives to conserve resources and recycle.

Pros: Nice staff , Green

Cons: Vegan options limited
