    If you’re in Koh Samui, make this a place you go to! The food is phenomenal, with lots of vegetarian and vegan options. The food prepared here proves that healthy food can be just as delicious and decadent as less nutrient dense foods/meals. I had gone to the restaurant twice—once for dinner and another time for breakfast. I had the Asian Salmon Bowl, which was incredible! For breakfast, I had a Blueberry Field Smoothie Bowl topped with peanut butter, which was perfection! 💕😀 In addition to the food being amazing, the owner and staff are phenomenal. Patrick, who is the owner, is so kind. In fact, as I was leaving the restaurant, I had asked a question about advice he may have had regarding transport to catch my ferry for the following morning at Nathon Pier. Without hesitation, Pat and one of the wonderful members of the staff, made a phone call to a taxi driver they have a good rapport with. In minutes, Pat had my taxi transport settled for me. I mention this small moment because It highlights the unique and incredible kindness and generosity of Pat and his staff. If you’re in Koh Samui, make it a point to come to this great spot in Bophut. 💕😍☀️

    Nice cafe space with a pool in Fisherman’s Village, serving lots of healthy food choices. Their shakes were very tasty, and we loved that they have vegan and vegetarian options, though felt that the food was pretty bland and expensive.

    Went here for an early breakfast shortly after they opened and we were the only customer's aside from one other table. We fancied a healthier breakfast and opted for porridge and a smoothie bowl along with a Frappuccino and Americano. Food was really tasty and well presented. Coffee went down well too. Just be aware that there is a lot of loud construction work going on right next door (see photo) which started up at 8am, looks like it will be on-going for quite some time too. [Date of visit: 8th Aug ‘23]

    Really extensive vegan and veggie menu (with a couple of meat dishes too if you need to keep the meat-eaters happy!) Staff were really friendly and the service was good.

    Good coffee but there is a very long waiting time between coffee and food, in fact maybe better to tell them bring coffee with food/pancake/etc. food is just ok, pancakes were not that tasty but a lot of fresh fruits next to it.

    Amazing ! Will be returning! We tried green light cafe after looking at the extensive menu online and decided we had to go immediately. On arrival we saw a big sign to advertise their free begginners salsa classes and party every Friday 8pm onwards. I am looking forward to attending tomorrow. Onto the food - phenomenal! My friend actually teared up while eating as she said it was the most perfect food to indulge in after a 30 day fast. We tried the vegan pizza, cream of pumpkin soup and mushroom burger. All were delicious we even ordered another pizza as it was the best vegan pizza we have tried to date. Cream of pumpkin soup also a 10/10. Mushroom burger was nice also. Can't wait to return tomorrow. Highly recommended if you enjoy great healthy food.

    We enjoyed the high-quality, delicious (vegetarian) and healthy food and drinks several days in a row. Would recommend eating here for sure! The people are so friendly, we were even allowed to use the swimming pool with our 4y old.

    We went here for breakfast as we were searching for a restaurant serving vegan options. The food was very good and specific requirements had been no issues. Really lovely interior and relaxing atmosphere especially due to the backyard incl pool. Very welcoming staff.

    Lots of gluten free options, all clearly marked on the menu. I had the Banana Pancakes, which were a delicious light breakfast. The restaurant was quiet for a weekday breakfast, so service was quite fast.

    Super fresh and tasty food! The pumpkin soup hooked us on a rainy day and drew us back for two more visits during our stay. Great vibe and friendly staff.

    TL;DR Pat and Era were amazing salsa instructors for our private class - even our guest who came in terrified they could not dance because they had two left feet had a blast. They made salsa accessible and fun - and ignited a passion in sone of our guests! Full review: My husband and I are big salsa aficionado and we wanted to organise a salsa class for all our wedding guests as part of pre-wedding festivities. Pat from Greenlight Cafe was super easy to liaise with to organise the class - and he worked with our wedding planner to take care of all the details. On the day, Pat was very friendly and engaging. He needed that as a lot of our guests were very anxious and uncomfortable! He broke down the basic steps simply, and slowly raised the difficulty but never lost his students. He really got people out of their comfort zone very gently. By the end of it, everyone was dancing the very basics of salsa with a partner - even turning the girls! When we had a power outage, he still managed to keep people engaged. I cannot recommend Pat enough - he is a great instructor!

    Super healthy restaurant with lots of customisation possible. Wild salmon is a nice touch - it's important to eat wild seafood. Chocolate cake dessert was exceptional.

  • 5/5 Barbara H. 10 months ago on Google
    A very relaxing space! Had Eggs on Toast which was great. Butterfly Pea Latte was great too, a good alternative if you need to avoid caffeine. Will come again.

  • 5/5 Lydia M. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing vegan and veggie food!! I had the Mexican Wrap and it was delicious! They have a choice of milk for coffees - soya, almond and coconut for an extra 20bht. Lovely decor and a pool out the back! 10/10 recommend for any vegans and vegetarians in Koh Samui!

  • 5/5 Wolf on h. 1 year ago on Google
    we had breakfast and it was delicious. The food served very fast and people are so nice and friendly. Taste the egg on toast and you will be amazed. The restaurant is directly in fisherman’s village and easy to find.

  • 5/5 Karin N. 1 year ago on Google
    This is my absolute favorite place to eat! The best healthy vegan (and vegetarian) food, a big variety of bowls, soups, salads, juices, smoothies and more! I totally recommend this place!

  • 5/5 Jai S. 2 years ago on Google
    Came here for a late lunch, it is very clear as soon as the first course comes out that they are focusing on the quality of the food and the presentation, my pumpkin soup was delicious and the healthy smoothie I had was great, the coffee is good and the desert was everything we wanted it to be, it is on the more expensive side but I'm sure they are not compromising with the ingredients that they use so I'm happy to pay a little extra, slightly bigger portions would have made me give 6 stars, great service and atmosphere.

  • 5/5 Matthew S. 1 year ago on Google
    Everything on the menu is delicious. As a vegan, I've never ate a burger with mushrooms as the buns, so that was fun. Don't miss out on the tasty desserts.

  • 5/5 Jonathan T. 1 year ago on Google
    We came here three times during our stay: once for breakfast, once for dinner, and once just to have cocktails and enjoy the salsa dancing! On each occasion it was fab - but especially the breakfast!!

  • 5/5 Yuta M. 1 year ago on Google
    Extensive vegan options, good flavour, and a pool,, had a very good experience here. You can swim while waiting for your food or after filling your tummy! Would be better if you could serve water not in plastic bottle but some other sustainable way.

    5/5 for the food, 3/5 for the service - makes 4/5. I found the cafe while looking for a vegetarian restaurant on Koh Samui. The food and smoothies/juices are fresh and I've been coming here almost every day since then. Every dish I tried was delicious and you could really taste the freshness. The menu is really huge - one day I wanted guacamole, but without the veggie sticks. Unfortunately, the request was rejected by the lady, which I will deal with in a moment. I would have paid full price but I just wanted the guacamole with pita and no sticks. Sometimes I don't understand this lack of flexibility. Still, there are many options and you should always be able to find something. Unfortunately I wasn't that impressed with the service...the first time there was a super nice lady who was always in the kitchen later and because of her hospitality I kept coming. There was another waitress who wasn't there until later in the week and who was also really great and very friendly. But the very young lady with the glasses is really detrimental to this cafe - rude, doesn't know hello/bye/thank you/please and her whole demeanor is very unpleasant (I'm surprised she didn't roll her eyes in front of the guests). Apart from that, I really recommend the restaurant for the healthy food options.

    Mexican wrap was delicious! Coffee was hot and tasty! Berry bliss smoothie was to die for. Me and my boyfriend will be back.

    The place looks great, food looks great. Service was a bit slow, the food was good, we expected great.

  • 5/5 Kaiserin K. 2 years ago on Google
    I like the food because it is low fat, fresh, vegan and such a friendly people working there! The vegan snickers and vegan tiramisu ist perfect so sugar lovers, not healthy, but worth every bite ❤️

  • 1/5 Steff L. 2 years ago on Google
    Wanted to try here because of the so many vegan options but cannot believe the prices. You can find much cheaper vegan food in Koh Samui. You can’t charge that much for plant based food, it’s ridiculous. Surely to entice more people to eat less meat you should be charging less!

  • 5/5 Rachel Mayo (. 1 year ago on Google
    Enjoyed a delicious shakshuka and iced matcha. The menu is *substantial*, and the prices seem fair considering the quality of food and presentation. I’ll be back before I leave the island!

    Most wonderful fresh, healthy tasting food at Fisherman's Village. The menu is perfect, the hosts Patrick & Era were so welcoming. Yoga classes next door. Beautiful quiet rooms with private courtyard close to lovely pool. The Salsa classes Friday night were alot of fun. Highly recommended this place to stay.
