Cozy vegan friendly cafe with healthy lunch - Edit
Ananda Cafe is run by a spiritual community. Staff is absolutely friendly and direct, speaks many languages. They have amazing fresh juices. Although it's categorized as a vegetarian cafe, they have daily changing vegan lunch menu that includes a soup, a main dish and the dessert. They follow sattvic principles for choosing ingredients. The food tastes delicious. Students get further discount from the already low price.
Read moreI wish they would serve chai instead of coffee. It's unclear if they use organic and local ingredients.

A haven! - Edit
This place is absolutely perfect. The food is delicious, varied, ethical, and quite reasonably priced. Everyone was so warm and welcoming, and we even got another round of (delicious) drinks just to stay to chat (in English). Menu is fixed daily and includes soup, a main plate with several different dishes, coffee, and a choice of wonderful desserts. I recommend the acai juices too!
Read moreIt's hard to find vegetarian food outside of the big cities in Portugal and this was a real oasis. I felt like the whole experience recharged me to the core. I can't recommend this place enough.
Pros: Vegan food, Reasonable price, Great, friendly staff who speak English
Cons: none!

Hi Susana!:)
Read moreThank you for coming and enjoying our space and food:)
Just want to rectify that actually we do Take Aways.
Also, regarding the variety of our food, even if we offer just 1 menu a day, our menu changes everyday and has items and flavors from diferent countries:)
As far as our schedule, we hope in the future to extend our opening hours.
Thanks for your feedback,
Hope to see you again here

Delicious - Edit
We spent two days in the mountain are and found little in the way of vegetarian food. When we were near Covilha, my happy cow app told me that we were close to Ananda Cafe and we called them to make sure they were still open at 9 in the evening. They told us that closed at 10 and we could still come. We were the only people there but the staff made sure to make us feel at home. The friendly waiter translated everything for us and in the background, he played music while we sat outside on the small porch. Although it was a fixed meal, there was a lot of variety- Italian, Asian and Indian cuisine all in one meal and quite tasty as well. The meal was inexpensive and well worth it.

Not to miss when visiting Covilha! - Edit
Ananda Café is a small restaurant in the old citycenter of Covilha. Ananda cooks great meals, using a different theme every day like Asian, Italian, South American. She is using a very good and balanced variation of ingredients, serves tasty fresh juices. The menu with soup, main course, desert and coffee has also a very fair price. And very important: Ananda is such a nice and friendly person, we were happy to get to know her. So go there when you are in the neighbourhood!
