Tasty food

We spent very nice evening in this friendly bistro. Food and lemoniade were really delicious and we got it very quickly. We ate a Balans Burger and asian dish with complicated name. A place is near the Old Town so a great possibillity to take a walk after meal.

Pros: good food, nice athmosphere, quick service

Cons: crowded, we waited for place to sit

Spectacular!

Expectations, you have been surpassed! Already planning to go back to this awesome spot. Vegan restaurants in Europe are so much cheaper than in Canada. 3 mains for €15. Burrito was superb. So many positives to this place, highly recommended :)

Pros: All amazing vegan food , Super delicious , Great prices

Cons: None

My favourite in Bratislava

This was definitely my favourite place in Bratislava when I visited. The menu was great, plenty to choose from as well as specials. The staff were really friendly and went out their way to explain the dishes to me. The food arrived promptly and was really tasty. I felt it was great value. I wished I’d have had time to go back a second time!

Pros: Great menu, Friendly staff, Delicious food

Number 1 place to eat in Bratislava

Very cozy restaurant with the best burgers and menu. I dont like many ingredients so that is why I dont go there everyday but to be honest i have never been disapointed. The food always tastes good, but it is quite overcrowded in lunch time, maybe consider bigger place.

Pros: 100% vegan, Super tasty, Cozy

Cons: Small place, Not expensive , Just 1 menu every day

Wondrous food & atmosphere

It was a cold and rainy day in late March, we were desperately hungry and we had been walking in the streets of Bratislava for a couple of hours trying to find proper, meat-free food in this city where, for some suspicious reason, most places were closed on Saturday evening. And the HappyCow map then guided us to a dark alley (it was late, and rainy) where we found this oasis of bright lights and delicious smells.

Luckily there was one free table just waiting for us, and otherwise the place was packed full and right after us more people came in and had to wait for a table. We ordered vegan burgers and boy! were they tasty! We had tasted several vegan burgers in different European cities before, but none compared to the burgers ate got at Balans Bistro.

The next day we came back to eat here once more before we left the city and once again the food was spot-on and the customer service was just perfect. The atmosphere is a little like a cozy living room, quite small but very comfy. Loved it.

Pros: Food, Atmosphere

Cons: Might have to wait for a table (if no reservation)

Best gluten free & vegan burger ever

A super cute and cozy small restaurant. Great staff and atmosphere. Ate the same burger on both days I was in Bratislava, it was the best burger I have ever had (and it was gluten free and vegan). Great quality for your money! Small place, so might be full, would recommend reserving seats atlest for bigger groups. I might visit Bratislava again only to have a burger again in this place!

Pros: Awesome burgers, Great atmosphere, Friendly staff

Well Priced Delicious Food

I have tried both the quesadilla and 'no-cheese' sandwich. Both options were amazing in flavour! Very rich and very flavourful. A lot more filling than it looks. It's well priced and you go away full!
Only issue is it's so small you don't always find a seat. Best to visit outside the busiest meal times.
They also have a daily menu, it's written in Slovak on the board but it includes a soup + main and worth asking about!

Pros: Hearty Portions, Reasonable Prices, Daily Menu

Cons: Too small

horrible place

We really liked the place in the beginning but in the third time we went there we have a problem with places and the restaurant didn’t help us. We felt really bad and ashamed in the restaurant. The food is tasty but the staff are awful. Don’t go there!!

soooo delicious

Two of my friends recommended this place so me and my (carnivore) cousin decided to go there for dinner. And oh my god! This place exceeded my expectations. I went for balans burger with fries. The burger was yummy and their homemade fries were so delicious. My cousin had the sandwich and it was so good. The sides of mayo and coleslaw were so tasty. Everything was good! I got a bounty cake to takeaway as we had to leave and it didn’t disappoint, I only wish I bought a slice of the other walnut cake as well haha. 100% recommend this place

Pros: nice atmosphere, amazing food, delicious desserts

Great food!

I like Balans and I go there quite often because I think they have best food in Bratislava. I love their french fries, burgers and daily offers as well. The place is very cozy and I always feel very comfortable there.

Amazing place!

Everything was so delicious, we tried the champignon quesadilla and the Mexico burger and it was really good. We also had the fries and some strawberry cake. Besides everyone was really nice, brought the food quickly, and the food was really cheap.
