There is a reason it’s the #1 vegan place

Please note: this place is cash only! We didn’t know (there was no sign) and had to go take money out of an ATM. Very delicious burgers, sandwiches and fries. We also loved the drinks - great sangria and beers! Loved the atmosphere and music too!

Pros: All vegan, Delicious, intense flavors

Cons: CASH ONLY

Fantastic Cuban sandwich

We had a lemonade and the summer speciality, vegan cuban sandwich with roasted seitan and tempeh "bacon". The sandwich was really amazing, but the lemonade was too watery for my taste.

Amazing burgers

Best vegan burger I've had in months.The place is quite small and there isn't a very wide range of selection, but the stuff are very friendly and the food is super delicious. I would definitely recommend eating here.

Cosy, relaxed place

Nice relaxed atmosphere. Good food, I had the ramen special although the tofu special with pea and basil sauce was better (more tasty)! The menu has a reasonable selection and there are a few dessert options.

Pros: Good food, Relaxed atmosphere

Best vegan place in Bratislava!

Small restaurant in downtown Bratislava with all vegan menu, serving burgers, hotdogs, quesadillas but has also menu that changes daily. Food is super delicious and tasty. They also serve homemade lemonades and bottled Kombucha. Place is quite tiny so if you want to grab a lunch during lunchtime come early.
Altogether, I highly recommend it!

Favourite thing: Mexico burger

Pros: Lots of options, Nice and casual interior, Cosy atmosphere

Cons: Crowded, no place to sit during lunchtime

Excellent burger!

Highly recommend this place! I could only spend one night in Bratislava but I chose to eat here and I'm glad I did. Excellent food, nice drinks selection and cool venue. Word for the wise: It's cash only so don't get caught with your pants down like I did!

Comida mal preparada

La quesadilla me la sirvieron quemada y la tarta fría y sin sabor. Además los menús y postres no están en inglés y traducir su idioma no es nada fácil. La atención es normal y parecía que tenían prisa porque nos fuesemos. Muchas cosas a mejorar

Excellent food - poor service

Food is outstanding and very well priced.
I wish I could cook like they do 😭
Service - horrible. It’s XXI century, you should expect english speaking staff in European country as long as card payments..

Pros: Excellent food, Price

Cons: Service doesnt speak english, Cant pay by card (wtf)

Tasty!

Amazing place - the tofu burger was amazing. Staff were fantastic and adapted the meal for me so that I could have it gluten and wheat free. Location seems a bit in the middle of nowhere but that’s what also makes it such a hidden gem. Thank you. Delicious.

Best Place in Bratislava

The first time I went to Balans Bistro, it was sadly all full with people already waiting outside so I left and came back another time instead. I ordered a lemonade with mint and coconut sugar and the Balans burger with fries. It was super delicious and really filling as well!

Staff were really friendly, and the place was very cozy. My only complaint would be that due to the door being open the smoke from people that were smoking outside came inside which was a bit annoying.

Pros: Friendly staff, Delicious food, Cozy atmosphere

Cons: Smoke from outside

Super nice place

Super nice place. It's quite tiny though but I was lucky to have a seat. ^^
I tried the soup of the day. It was delicious and filling.
They serve burgers, quesadillas, burritos, hotdogs, fries, sandwiches and there a different soup and meal every day. They also have a few cakes.

Pros: Tasty food, Nice staff, Good prices

Cons: Quite tiny

Decent

My non-veg friend and I both got the large spicy quesadillas. We were both pleased with the taste and portions. Price was okay. The restaurant is TINY. We ended up getting our food to-go and had to eat on the sidewalk which sucks. Besides that, would recommend.

Pros: good portions

Cons: slightly pricy, small location

Best vegan burrito

Best and fastest burrito i’ve ever had in Slovakia. Can’t wait to try some of the daily menu dishes. Also very friendly staff❤️
