    This is such a lovely small place. We completely loved it! All dishes were vegetarian and very delicious. The menu consisted of some very nice entries and only 3 mains what we really appreciate since these three dishes were all super nice. For dessert they serve a variety of super yummy cakes. Would love to be back at this cute restaurant!

    Everything was delicious, even some of the gluten free options we got for our kid. The beans burger and the cogumelos were especially good! Everyone is super-nice and accommodating, will be back.

    Amazing service and surprisingly delicious vegetarian food! My family and we’re especially fond of the high quality ingredients and affordability. Centrally located but tucked away off the beaten path. If you visit Aveiro, you need to stop here!

    The service was outstanding. Our server was absolutely adorable and helpful. We shared the two burgers and we both felt it was extremely sub par. They were both dry. Lump in my throat. Tasted like the bread was stale. Chips were 10/10 delish!

    hey, a purely vegetarian/vegan place, so of course we had to try it. Were greeted and treated nicely in this small place. I ordered the dish of the day (Tofu with Teryaki sauce and Quinoa) and my wife the veggie burger. Excellent food, we totally enjoyed our experience there. Any time again!

    Excellent plant-based restaurant in Aveiro with many choices gluten free, I tried the azuki beans burger and it was magnificent . If you're vegetarian/vegan you definitely need to go there for a meal. Five-star

    Süßer Laden, alles ist vegan. Wir hatten Quiche, Lasagne und Burger und zum Nachtisch einen Apfel Zimt Kuchen. Das Essen war sehr lecker und die Bedienung sehr freundlich. Absolut zu empfehlen.

    I had the daily menu, it was roasted vegetables with lentil stew. I was expecting The vegetables and the stew separated, they came in a single plate, a combination of a bit uncooked lentils and fruit and spinach salad with roasted sweet potato. I liked the salad, it was citrus and sweet, even though it needed a bit of salt, then I saw that all the liquid was at the bottom, that is, not coating the vegetables as in a good salad. I would give it 4 stars if it came separated, and properly cooked lentils. I also had a Tofu Quiche because the previous was not very filling. It needed a tiny bit of salt too and not the most flavourful. If you are looking for healthy food this is a good place, whether you are vegetarian or not.

    Delicious vegan food. The salad was very fresh and the main dish was very nicely balanced and flavoured. Great little spot with seats outside.

    We've been here as a couple looking for vegan food. The good reviews lead us here. We've been greeted by the waitress with a list of different languages instead of a hello and should have left right then. I myself went to the bathroom first and my girlfriend waited for me at the table. When I came back she told me the waitress wanted to know what we would like to have while I was away. As soon as I sat down she reappeared and asked "decided?" with a grunty face. Over the course of only about 5 minutes she asked three times while there were only 3 tables seated. As starters we had falafel with teriyaki sauce and hummus toast with vegetables. Both for 5€. The starter of my partner arrived first and I had to wait about 10 minutes for mine while hers was already getting cold. The main course - 2 hamburgers - arrived shortly after we finished our first plate. The sweet potato chrisps (not fries/chips!) were far too crispy. The burger was dry and the bread seemed not done. I regret to say, as I would love to support more 100% vegan restaurants, that the food really isn't as good as reviewed by others and the waitress seemed to have a really bad day.

    Really nice place, food and service. We really recommend this restaurant. The price is really reasonable. They have daily menú!

  • 3/5 Alex A. 1 year ago on Google
    Tasty food. Friendly staff, But we waited too much time for the food. The service was extremely slow. I would suggest to be more transparent with the waiting times, and manage the kitchen better by suggesting alternatives that don’t take so much time. Also, another table that was seated after us received the same dishes before us… wish is very unprofessional

    Wow!! Amazing food without eating any animals. Totally plant based meals. Wonderful staff. We will be back

    Delicious organic food, beautifully presented accompanied by a friendly service in a quiet and comfortable place close to the river. We had a great time there.

  • 5/5 Sazzie D. 4 years ago on Google
    Such simple and tasty food and ridiculously cheap. The carrot and orange juice, which came with the meal deal, was really fresh and I could've easily had ordered another one. I'd like to explore more of the menu someday, but it's only available at weekends and after 15:00. Lovely, friendly staff too. 💖

  • 5/5 Saskia O. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent! All the food is vegan, not just vegetarian, tastes amazing and the terrace in front is nice to sit, especially if you bring a dog. I really loved the quiche! Service was very friendly as well.

  • 5/5 Silas G. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing Breakfast and everything was made from scratch. We had two Açai bowls, shared the Avocado on toast and had the detox drink (Apple, Ginger, Celery, Orange, Cabbage, Carrot). I asked for the celery to be removed and that was no problem. Very friendly and caring lady who served us. Would definitely recommend!

    Lovely place. The service was great. The food was delicious. That’s a variety of tables inside for groups and one/two person. You can eat outside as well. They provide a variety of meals: breakfast, lunch, brunch, snacks and desserts.

    We came here for lunch on a Saturday. We had the adzuki burger and tofu burger. Both came with sweet potato chips. Both items were very filling and tasty. Price of lunch was very reasonable. Indoor and outdoor seating available. The restaurant was nicely decorated and clean.

👍👍 Possibly the best restaurant in Aveiro. Its been around for over 60 years. Waiters are professional and the food is fresh. If you want a full Portuguese food experience that's traditional, come here straight from the city. It's 10 minute drive or uber..
