Great for lunch - Edit
A beautiful sunny spot with a great view of the beach (even if the neighbouring hotel pool is a bit loud!). Very healthy, maybe too healthy 😂 . I had the Vegan full breakfast which was good. It had a "sausage" which was more like a beetroot burger mix in a different shape - very crumbly. I also had the frozen coffee cubes which I'd highly recommend. We had the banana bread and a brownie for lunch but they were both a bit dry/claggy
Read morePros: The view, Good healthy range, Great drink selection
Cons: Sausage was too falafel-like , Cakes too dry

Okay, but personally not for me. - Edit
*Note: They've moved, so the following might not be accurate anymore. This review is about the period from December 20th 2023 to January 3rd 2024.*
Read moreThough I was really looking forward to going here I was disappointed. Might be due to personal preference and food intolerances, but still.
First disappointment came when they were unexpectedly (No mention of it on facebook or their website) closed for pretty much all but the last 3 days of my stay (this is how I ended up at Buena Vida Vegan, so lucky accident I guess). When I finally was able to eat here the food was not what I hoped it was.
I ordered the cauliflower wings but the outer layer was rather tasteless and a bit leathery. The glaze was nice but too little for the whole dish and the coriander dip was served in a small shot-like glass which the wings did not fit in at all. I had to scoop out the coriander dip with a tiny fork...
The polenta sticks felt greasy and lacked taste as well, and these too weren't crispy the way you'd expect them to be.
The special iced coffee was okay, fun way of serving and tasted well enough but just nothing special imo.
I also ordered some sweets to take home, but found out they were made with Stevia or alike which my body does not react well to. So I didn't finish most of the sweets sadly.
To be fair, having had the privilege of eating at Buena Vida Vegan for most of my stay nothing is going to be able to even come close, and everything will disappoint to some extent... 😉
Ambience is not really existent. Its spacious but really boring inside, though they do have a big terrace overlooking the beach and ocean.
They also have Tierra the Store, which is in a separate opposite building where they sell all sorts of vegan and vegetarian products. I planned to do most of my groceries shopping here but the store remained closed the whole time so I have no idea of their produce and price-range etc.
Pros: Vegan Options, Kind and laid back staff
Cons: Ambience, Food tasted bland, Closed for a couple weeks without notice

Plenty of vegan options, freshly prepared dishes - Edit
I went to this restaurant almost daily, with different varieties of food. The food is freshly prepared. Great presentation and taste. My favourite was the Mexican burger.

Veggie but has good vegan options for all the dishes. Really good coffee, smoothies and breakfast options (Banana on toast was 10 out of 10). Open from 9 when most other vegan option places open at lunchtime.

Would be a 5 if fully Vegan - Edit
A lot of Vegan options and everything on the menu can be made Vegan.
Read moreHot chocolate was nothing to rave about, in fact was pretty terrible, would not get it again, just tasted like water but the food made up for this, absolutely gorgeous and big portions, not pricey either. Staff are lovely and setting is nice, outdoor seating.
We had a bagel with scrambled tofu, beans and a sausage (just made my own meal) and we had a chickpea omelette. Really tasty, quite oily but still felt healthy.
Would return. Would be nice to see the egg and cheese dropped from the menu.
Great dessert options, ALL vegan.

Best vegan clean food on Tenerife - Edit
I'll go here every day, every year I'm visiting Tenerife. I'd try a lot of other places for vegan food on the south side. But this is the best - vegan, glutenfree, clean and fresh food. Nothing like this 🫶 wished this place existed in Denmark.
Read moreMy favourite is the minty fresh juice, the vegan omelette, and the raw cakes!

Fresh and lovely place to sit - Edit
Really nice place to sit right by the beach.
Read moreThe food was tasty and fresh, the burger with nice but everything was kind of the same soft texture. The coffee smoothie could have tasted more of coffee but was tasty.
Friendly staff.

Very good - Edit
Tierra is a great restaurant in Adeje, we visited several times whilst in the area, there are many Vegan options on the menu and the food is lovely.
Read moreI had a couple of Buddha bowls, a burger and a pizza made with a chickpea base, everything tasted great and the portion sizes are plentiful!
They do a range of deserts, I loved the sweet potato brownie.
Tierra are located on the upper level of the shops at the south end of Playa de la pinta, they have plenty of outdoor seating so booking ahead is not necessary in our experience.
Not quite as good as BuenaVida Vegan in my option but a larger menu and still a great choice for Vegan food in Adeje.
Pros: Menu choices , Quality of food , Staff

Had the berried treasure smoothie and twix bar - smoothie was tasty but as twix bar had just come out of the fridge is was rock solid and a bit messy to eat - very tasty though, just ask for extra napkins🤣

Cute little gem - Edit
Lovely service and food had at Tierra Cafe, glad we stumbled across it on our walk through Puerto Colon.
Read moreSo much available and all pretty tasty. More on the ‘healthy’ side of vegan than the junk side (chickpea pizza bases and spelt bread), avocado was super creamy!!
Staff all very friendly and the setting is very sweet with pastel chairs and tables.
Portion sizes good and had total food fomo when someone else’s loaded nachos came out! Might have to come back…

Best vegan place at Costa Adeje! - Edit
We love this place! Been there a couple of times and will definitely be back. They are not completely vegan (a few things are just vegetarian) but they have almost everything vegan! I would recommend the 'plato de la semana', it's always sooo good and for dessert you have to try the homemade twix!
