Best vegan option in Lausanne - Edit
Delicious buffet with plenty of warm and cold vegan options. A lifesaver when traveling due to long opening hours.
Read moreTheir maple glazed roasted root veggies, vegan tiramisu, and vegan cheesecake were the highlights of the meal

Delicious - Edit
Loved the convenience and variety that you could get at this place! 90 % of items are vegan. Try to really interesting vegan cheeses that were good as well. I wonder if they make them or who they source them from.

I can’t wait for Tibits to be 100% vegan ;) - Edit
I’ve been going to Tibits for years, first in Swiss Germany where I had discovered it :)
Read moreI usually get my food to go in a rebox from recircle. Which makes this the most cost and zero waste friendly option. As there are three different price options for the food.
The most expensive is to eat in the second price is for take out but in a single use container and the cheapest is take out in your own container, Tibits bento or rebox (recircle with a 10.- deposit you get back when you return the rebox)
For me the buffet concept is perfect as I can eat a small amount of lots of different dishes! And also this gets me to try some dishes I would normally not go for.
Sometimes the food quality varies. And I have noticed that the root vegetables are not quite cooked through some cases.
Currently my favorite bread (you can have one free with your meal) is the turmeric one.
I’ve been to all the Tibits locations in Switzerland except for one and I have always been satisfied to find good and easy vegan food on the go
Updated from previous review on 2023-04-13
Pros: The buffet is almost entirely vegan , Good description of each dish with allergens, Open pretty much all the time
Cons: Sometimes the root vegetables are not quite cooke, This location can get loud , Not entirely vegan yet

The go-to vegetarian place in Lausanne! - Edit
Read moreThe Tibits veg buffet chain is run by Hiltl, who were pioneers for all-veg restaurants in Switzerland, founded in 1900 and something.
Lots of tasty and filling food, good desserts too. My favourites are the carrot-ginger mousse, veg tartar, stuffed jalapeños, and many dishes change on a weekly basis.
Try that place to see whst veg food really is, or for #veganuary or #anyothermonthuary #Veganuary
Pros: Lots of indicated vegan options, Buffet, you eat what you fancy, Nice room, well situated at train station
Cons: Expensive if you're hungry (pay by weight), A bit noisy, Oriental dishes not spicy enough

My favorite vegan place in Lausanne - Edit
Have been there for a lot of times. Delicious food! Although it is a vegetarian restaurant, more than 85% of them are vegan. They also have some gluten free desserts if you are lucky. But it is a little bit expensive. Every time I want to eat until I am completely satisfied, I spend more than 25 chf…

Positive experience - Edit
My partner and I visited Tibits for lunch during a holiday weekend in Lausanne. We liked the food and the service, and the premises looked clean and tidy. Staff spoke English, however, the dishes descriptions were only in French and some of the were missing altogether which is an issue if you’re vegan for example. Prices were in line with the other restaurants in Lausanne and service was really friendly.
Read moreOverall, a very positive experience and we would definitely recommend this place.
Pros: Lots of vegan options, Staff speaks English

Lovely buffet - Edit
The place is very nice and they offer a large buffet full of different types of food. You can find for example veganized traditional Swiss dishes like Zürcher Geschnetzeltes, or Indian curries, Asian spring rolls etc. Everything's usually very delicious and their desserts are lovely.
Read moreI find the price a little too high though, but I still recommend this restaurant. A great place to show your meat eating friends that vegetarian/vegan food isn't boring ;)
Pros: Large variety of dishes, Beautiful place
Cons: Prices a bit too high

Delicious food, staff is meh - Edit
It's a vegetarian buffet but there's plenty of vegan options. Everything that I've ever tried was very tasty, fresh and of great quality. Every vegan dish of the buffet is labeled so it's easy to know what's vegan and what's not. My favorite is the papet vaudois, the seitan bourguignon and the passion fruit mousse. I'm only putting 4 stars because of the staff. One bartender once mocked me for asking for vegan milk in my coffee ("Is it to save the pandas?" with a fake, mocking sad face). And sometimes, the bartenders keep chatting and laughing together while customers are waiting to take their order, it's not very pleasant, especially when you have a train to catch (the restaurant is located in the train station). Some of them are perfectly nice and professional though, but it's a bit of a gamble. The food is also quite expensive. But from time to time it is worth it for me because it truly is tasty and its location is very practical.
Read morePros: Delicious vegan dishes, Well labeled, Location

Agréable dans l’apres midi - Edit
À l’heure du café, beaucoup moins de monde mais un buffet toujours régulièrement rechargé. On était un peu déçu de l’aspect visuel des plats et du manque d'originalité. Ceci étant, on est heureux d’avoir une offre pareil au centre de Lausanne.

Very flash, in all respects - Edit
First, the space is stunning. Early century Art Deco with 20m high ceilings (ok maybe not that much but it's how it looks), a lot of light and great furniture. They really revealed this place (that was a dusty traditional restaurant before).
Read moreAnd then, the food. Oh my!
It's expensive, but everything is SO GOOD! So much choice for vegans, including delicacies such as seitan bourguignon, almond cheese, excellent scrambled tofu for brunch or beautiful desserts.
Personally I love also the buffet setup, allowing me to customize my plate.
