    We had only smoothies and ice coffee and it was so tasty! Stuff was very friendly and the whole atmosphere is really nice. You can park your scooter in front of the restaurant as well :)

    Definitely the best cafe/restaurant at Palolem and among the best in South Goa. The place is 24*7 jam packed and most of the customers are regulars and that speak volumes. The food, vibe, hospitality, everything is just perfect. Highly recommended and a must visit at Palolem.

    Wonderful ambiance and great staff. We experimented with a few dishes. The tomato basil soup was good; the bread served with it was different but tasty. The smoothie bowl mixed with oats wasn’t up to the mark. The rolled oats needed to be soaked more as they were hard to chew. Their version of the classic pancake was quite different from the usual, but it was enjoyable. Their café mocha was also tasty. However, finding parking in that lane is extremely difficult.

    Amazing place with very healthy food options. Loved all dishes we had. Worth every penny. Chef must be amazing to prepare such nice food. Their smoothies are amazing. Staff is very polite and supportive and special mention of staff Mr. Vikas who is very polite and helpful by nature to all customers. Wish him all success in his career. They have majority customers as foreigners and they treat Indians equally which is not common in some other restaurants in Goa. Would highly recommend everyone to try it and I am sure you would end up coming here again because of amazing tasty food and customer service they provide. You also get free water and no service charge for the great service. Prices inclusive of GST. 👍

    One of the healthiest cafés in and around Palolem beach. They serve all vegan and vegetarian food. Though prices are on the higher ends, the portions do the justification. Their coffee and raw bowls / wraps are recommended.

    Amazing place and service. Best taste. The cheesecake is a must try, it's absolutely delicious. If you are looking for a good restuarant at palolem then this is the place for you. Nice ambience and not very crowded. Just the perfect vibe. We visited this place twice in two days.

    My absolute favorite restaurant in palolem was Nireas. The food is amazing (fresh & super healthy), the staff is so lovely and professional & the vibe/ atmosphere is so chilled and relaxed. You can literally spend all day in here. Loved spending my time here 💜

  • 5/5 Hemen B. 5 months ago on Google • 41 reviews
    Lively and lovely both goes hand in hand.. great food and the chefs are great as they can make healthy food tasty.. their breads are so awesome.. coffee and tea is so much authentic .. we went twice for breakfast and intend to visit many more times in future

  • 5/5 Ashwita G. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a great place if you like healthy food or have dietary restrictions. They even have gluten free wraps - what a gift! The chef knows his flavours and understands balanced diets, so it is an all round satisfying experience, healthy as well as tasty. I love how the menu is so inclusive. You have juices and smoothies but you also have exciting cocktails. You can order vegan and gluten free but then you can also order a chicken burger. There's something for everyone here.

    In my opinion, this is the best cafe in Palolem. Their coffee is excellent, there are a variety of types of milk, the food is delicious, the place is clean and tidy and the staff of the place are all amazing people. We went back there every day during our stay.

    what can I say. This place is ideal for healthy food, good variety, great atmosphere and all around a place to be. In my last 4 weeks of palolem, not a day went by that I wasn't here. you could almost call it home. I miss the food and the boys already! absolute recommendation

    As a vegan we never expected so many vegan options, and absolutely delicious ones at that. Definitely priced better with bigger portions that all the other dedicated vegan restaurants around. We loved the coffee, burger, wraps, dessert and the staff was so sweet! He always had a smile on his face and was eager to serve us and explain the dishes too. Quite possibly the best vegan food in palolem!

    Thank you for being pet friendly! We visited this place accompanied by our 2 golden retrievers. The staff here are very accommodating. We had the veg sizzler which was rightly spiced, good quantity for 2 and was served in cabbage leaves which looked interesting. The sauce was served in a bowl separately and was perfect for the sizzler. In the quinoa pumpkin burger the patty was really nice however the bun could have been better. We also had the recommended ice lemonade and it was indeed perfect for the Goa summer! This place is on a busy street hence parking for a 4 wheeler is a huge issue around here.

  • 5/5 Almost Perfect By A. 2 years ago on Google
    I found Nireas from Google and after reading the reviews I thought of trying it. I am foodie and try new places no matter how much I love the food at a place, but after visiting Nireas this changed. I did not try a lot of restaurants around. Reason I was impressed by everything they did. The food was made with quality ingredients, it was fresh, delicious and healthy too, which was a delight cause I could eat and not be worried of falling sick. Menu- they have a variety of cuisines to try from and all of them are good. I tried Italian (bruschetta, pizza, pasta), Israeli (falafel, schnitzel, Thai, Indian (khichdi), coffee, fresh juices, and they were all amazing, their stir fried vegetables had the perfect crunch, hummus wrap, sizzler, bruchetta, schnitzel was mouth watering. To people who love spicy food this place is not for you, to people who love flavours of different kinds it's a heaven, they do not over powder ingredients with spices, mark of beautiful food. Apart from this the place was open, airy, the entire set up and decor was environment friendly. You will not find plastic bottles, but a water station, the food they packed was with bio-degradable material like paper, foil. Music- mornings would have light calm music and evenings would have lively music but never loud. I visit goa every year, spend more time in the south especially Palolem. This is going to be my go to place now every year. If you want to eat great food, relax, read a book and enjoy the present moment this is the place to be. Me and my mom would have breakfast, dinner here and read a book/ chat. They serve non-veg, veg, vegan food. I surely am gonna miss the place and its people who not just serve good food but also have amazing sense of hospitality. They are closed from May to August. You can drop them a message on google, they are quick in response. Highly highly recommended.

    Such a lively and comfortable vibe especially during evening hours. Loved the food and ambiance. Cost is quiet decant for food and drinks Tried boneless Chicken with sautéed veggies and potato fritters. It was quiet good. Worth a visit 😊

  • 5/5 Divya J. 2 years ago on Google
    It is a beautiful place. The vegetarian food options are also decent considering the Palolem area, where there are no pure vegetarian restaurants. Bruschetta is super tasty. It is a green chutney base, which I think may be avocado paste. This tasted too yum. The cocktails also were good. We also ordered diwani handi with chapati. They have made this vegetable so nicely, no artificial flavour. The presentation also was too good. There were grilled spinach leaves with some dry fruits at the top of the vegetable bowl. I'm definitely visiting this place again. Made me food happy. 😀

    I visited Nireas quite a few times in my one month stay here in Palolem-Patnem. I tried different smoothies, coffee breakfast options. I personally liked their Wake Me Up smoothie and also their Chicken Wrap. Coffee was amazing too. The soup was not great and the salad was okayish. The service though was top notch as they really are very attentive and give you the best service possible.

  • 5/5 Rashmi G. 1 year ago on Google
    Let's get straight to their food. The taste was truly amazing. I tried their healthy pasta, ABCG juice and vegan brownie. My husband loved the vegan brownie. Service was too good. The restaurant staff was very polite and treated us with a smile on their faces. Anyone who wants to eat something veg or vegan can visit this restaurant. It won't disappoint you.

  • 5/5 Nikhil R. 6 months ago on Google
    Amazing food and menu spread! This is a gem in Palolem. We went there for lunch and dinner. The ingredients are sourced locally and the food is not spicy which is a great hangout for families with kids. I would highly recommend the Veg thali and any Guacamole/Avocado dishes.

  • 5/5 Kamalika 7 months ago on Google
    Very calm and peaceful palce if you are looking for an amazing time, the menu is primarily european, you will also find thai dishes and Goan thali. Meats like fishes (in limited options), Egg preparations are also available. The food is very delicious, staff is super friendly. Must try Burchetta, Pasta, Pad Thai, Waffles, Smoothies, Juices and the Thali. A must visit if you are in Palolem.

  • 5/5 Ninnie L. 5 months ago on Google • 3 reviews
    This place is absolutely fantastic! Delicious healthy options like smoothies, brown toast and chia pudding, as well as amazing pizzas. Very friendly staff and comfy decoration.

  • 5/5 Simon D. 1 year ago on Google
    Best place to eat in Palolem! Not only is it safe but incredibly healthy and delicious. Probably THE best restaurant I went to in the 5 weeks of travelling around India. Also the coffee was amazing too! Friendly staff aswell =]

  • 5/5 Chitra C. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the very few eateries offering vegan options in South Goa. They can even customise your order basis allergens, dietary requirements and choice. Great service, courteous, firendly staff. Value for money. Located in the Palolem beach market.

  • 5/5 Kudzai C. 3 months ago on Google • 3 reviews New
    We recently had the pleasure of visiting a delightful spot in Goa that exceeded all expectations. This hidden gem not only offers a serene atmosphere but also boasts a menu filled with healthy delights. From scrumptious avocado toast to the freshest guacamole, every dish is a culinary masterpiece. The smoothies are a burst of flavors, and the overall experience is a perfect blend of relaxation and wholesome indulgence. A must-visit for those seeking a rejuvenating breakfast experience in the heart of Palolem south Goa

  • 5/5 Indrayani S. 1 year ago on Google
    Nires Healthy Heaven is a fantastic restaurant that offers a range of delicious and healthy meals. The restaurant is located in a beautiful and tranquil setting, making it a great spot to unwind and enjoy a meal with friends or family. The menu at Nires Healthy Heaven is diverse and caters to a range of dietary needs, including vegan and gluten-free options. The restaurant uses high-quality, fresh ingredients to create meals that are not only healthy but also full of flavor. The dishes are well-balanced and beautifully presented, making them as visually appealing as they are tasty.

  • 5/5 Shwetha M. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is in Palolem, South Goa. The food is really good and a bit costly as well. You will get a lot of healthy and vegan options here with great taste. The staff is good and welcomes you with great hospitality. Must visit if you're in South goa and looking for good healthy vegan food options You will not regret it.

  • 5/5 Rashi J. 2 years ago on Google
    We became regulars at this place during our stay in South Goa. You cannot miss this health haven! The food is beautiful and delicious. Absolutely a fresh way to start the day with Nireas. I bet you'll only get positive vibes from here. Do visit ♥️

  • 5/5 B n. 2 years ago on Google
    This place never disappoints me. Beautiful ambiance, polite people, good sitting area and good food. The service is also fast. The best food is carrot cake for sure 💕💕💕💕

  • 5/5 Ankit K. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing amazing amazing! Everything is just GREAT, went here 2 times a day, all seven days of our stay. Courteous staff, thoughtfully curated menu and SKILLFUL execution with ATTENTION TO DETAIL! DO NOT MISS EATING AT THIS PLACE 😊😊😊😊😊

  • 3/5 Madhav S. 2 years ago on Google
    Chips and Guacamole was yum. Juices were nice. Burgers were over chewy and without much Flavor. Fries and Veg Platter was a dud. Ice tea was salty and sour. Loved the vibe, but given that the happy was higher before the food than after, this place takes a 2/5. While not a disaster, proceed with caution. Update: They fixed the ice tea and the cheesecake packed a surprise. Rating revised to 3!

  • 5/5 Kalpi Mittal (Kalpi M. 2 years ago on Google
    Awesome ambience, lovely place. Veg platter was great. Juices were fresh and healthy. Must try place especially for vegetarians.

  • 5/5 Vivek C. 2 years ago on Google
    Must try: coffee, ice tea, dal Kichidi Can improve: butter chicken Don't try: bottled wine Tldr: top place to unwind in Palolem Excellent staff, very courteous, polite and professional. There was an instance when a group showed up with their own jbl-music (idiots). The staff, literally everyone from inside the kitchen as well came out and asked the idiots to stop the music!. Talk about maintaining the sanctity of the place. Food was very healthy (quite mellow on the spices) and their cold/hot(coffee) drinks were great as well. I think the butter chicken cannot be made in a healthy way, so might not completely be their fault. Only thing I found odd is the wine bottle that we purchased (1300/-) dint seem to be a genuine bottle. This isn't to say about nireas itself, but I think it's an observation about goa in general. I'd tried bailey's from their govt certified store and that itself seemed diluted. For this instance, I emptied a full bottle of wine and dint seem every so slightly fazed by it. On the contrary, beer seems to be quite intact.

  • 4/5 Neha P. 2 years ago on Google
    Loved the food here specially the veg and chicken sizzler along with the pizza. Lots of healthy n tasty options to choose from as well.

  • 5/5 Gaurav D. 2 years ago on Google
    A great cafe. The food and ambience is top notch. If you're in this market or passing by - do stop and pay visit. Fairly crowded, good staff and meal is timely served.

  • 5/5 BE_A_30_Karan_Gada 2 years ago on Google
    Best quality food. Heaven for people finding Vegan in Goa. Staff is too much helpful. Price high slightly but quality and quantity is worth paying.

  • 5/5 Keitlin R. 2 years ago on Google
    If you want to have a superb, mouthwatering and most importantly HEALTHY breakfast, then Nireas is a place to go. We were going there during all our stay in Palolem, that is, for 10 days, and never got bored. There is a great variety of different options for breakfast, including vegan dishes like a vegan omelette, chia pudding and others. You can get oats soaked in oat milk, soya milk and so on with a lot of berries or apples and cinnamon. You can get pancakes. Brown toasts with eggs were my way to go as well. A huge variety of fresh juices and smoothies. And best coffee for sure! Portions are huge, and for the quality of the food you get prices are really low. Worth mentioning the presentation of each dish and friendly attitude of the waiters. I’d also recommend this place to people who like co-working, saw many of them in this restaurant, music is quiet, nothing disturbs you from finishing your assignments etc. Among my favourites dishes are: 1. A huge bowl of Musli Deluxe with Dahi (! It is not only healthy and nourishing but it will also last you for hours - I had my next meal only at 7 pm having had breakfast at 11). 2. Power breakfast: oat porridge, fruit salad, immunity boosting fresh juice 3. Italian breakfast: 2 toasts with cheese, tomatoes and pesto, eggs, salad and coffee (so much only for 320 rupees) 4. CHEESECAKE IS A MUST-TRY! 5. Vegan brownie A word about those amazing desserts I mentioned - never in my life have I had something as tasty as them. I do not usually eat sweet stuff, and the fact that in both of the desserts there was no sugar added was incredible. Highly recommend.

    One of best healthy food available in pololem beach road Fresh food Plenty of options You feel to visit daily once you get to visit this Service is fast Must try museli delux pan cake

  • 5/5 Divij P. 11 months ago on Google
    Best coffee in Cancona hands down. The food was an added bonus! Had the power breakfast and omelette with toast, both were delicious. It's a must visit if you are near Palolem beach. Will definitely keep coming back.

  • 5/5 Arpita K. 2 years ago on Google
    Our go to place for healthy breakfast always in south Goa. Nireas has a great menu, a good ambience and good hospitality. Their avocado toast, cereal bowls and smoothies bowls are great. The food tastes fresh and so good. Heard their pizzas are also good. We will keep going there for good breakfast.

  • 4/5 shaunak s. 2 years ago on Google
    Our first case of a healthy food, will get some getting used to. Presentation were well thought of. Both farmhouse and margarita pizza were excellent. The burger had a nice zest to it. We got 2 salads, which were good but not to our taste. We ended adding a ton of salt to make them work for us. Like I said it is good food, needs getting used to.

  • 4/5 Simona R. 2 years ago on Google
    Some good food options but they put water in smoothies and juices, so the drinks lose some of the taste. I love the iced ginger lemon honey drink - it's a must try, but very addictive! I also liked some of their salads, but they add very little feta cheese or sun dried tomatoes, so don't expect your salad to contain generous amounts of products that are more western (they probably are expensive here). The staff member Budha is a lovely guy, but another waiter is moody and I don't think he likes his job.

  • 3/5 Tejal S. 2 years ago on Google
    Recently we had gone to Nireas and it was a complete disappointment. We had ordered mushroom tofu burger and the buns were really dense making only the bread taste and not the patty finally removed the top slice of the bun to complete, the next we had ordered the hummus wrap which was tasting good but one fourth of the roti/ base was completely dry and it was also very thick. The best was the iced ginger lemon honey drink. And the staff was not at all courteous.

  • 4/5 Amit Minocha A. 1 year ago on Google
    The place is really beautiful, well crafted and well maintained. The food is excellent , helathy, unique and tasty. We spent a very long time here trying different type of dishes and drinks and all of them were very unique and fresh in taste. The ambience is very nice. Location is very easy too. The service is really very good and quick. One of the finest places to have food and feel awesome at Palolem. Truly healthy and heavenly.

  • 5/5 narangupasana 1 year ago on Google
    One of the Best food in Goa. Delicious, Fresh, Healthy with good portions. Flavors are unique and authentic. They serve all day food from breakfast to dinner. Will visit again. We had tried Avocado toast platter, pesto pasta, chicken cheese burger and Indian veg thali. Cappuccino is also great. Thanks to Nireas Team for lovely food which has touched our soul and made our Goa trip even more special.

  • 5/5 khyati s. 1 year ago on Google
    The food there has alot of variety and has something to offer for anyone and everyone. Also there ideology of being sustainable with lowest possible carbon footprint is what impressed me. So much so that they don't provide packaged drinking water because of plastic usage and instead provide you with bottle and you can fill up your own.

  • 5/5 Vishwesh B. 1 year ago on Google
    Cafe For chilling and relaxing Cafe serves really good food! Worth eating. Most of visitors just sit for long hours and chill. So if you didn’t find a seat. You need to wait for long time… We also visited next day to try food!!! We came when it was almost full.. while we left first after eating… most of other visitors were still sitting and chilling. But food Is worth the wait.

  • 5/5 Karolina K. 1 year ago on Google
    This quickly became our favourite spot in Palolem. Great atmosphere, friendly staff and delicious healthy food. Power breakfast, muesli bowl, and smoothie bowls are all must tries. We also tried the dinner menu and enjoyed the tofu mushroom burger. Don’t miss it!

  • 4/5 Saumil S. 1 year ago on Google
    Went for an afternoon snack … chilled out ambience. Had a coffee smoothie (wake me up) which was really nice. The Guacamole sweet potato chips were good and the vegan schnitzel was also yummy. Wanted to try the raw vegan cheesecake but they are not making it at the moment as the season is almost over and there is not much footfall …
