Don't recommend it

They served me a heated and burned bread that tasted really bad and they charged for it.

Good burrito

Really good burrito, however had to wait a very long time even tough there was only 2 other people in the restaurant.

Pros: Yummy food , Loads of options

Cons: Long wait time , Was given stale bread while we waited

Glitch in the matrix

Something definitely was wrong with the man running Bek the day I went. I was second to arrive to the otherwise empty venue, ordered a smoothie with matcha plus a cake from their display counter, and waited almost an hour and a half to get a green swill and a rather bad, dry dessert. While waiting, I engaged in conversation with the person who got there first and as I was in no rush and saw the humour in the situation, I kept staying. Other guests, who arrived only a little bit later all got stuck in the same bizarre scenario; ordering food and drinks to just sit and wait for a very long time with nothing happening besides the guy disappearing either in the kitchen or in what seemed to be a wine shop across the street. When finally bringing out the food, nothing was what had been ordered nor did it taste good or was it warm. Some guests left angry, refusing to settle their bills. When I decided to pay out of pity, the man kept the change without a word. As I wasn't willing to give any tip, I asked him for my money, but he just shrugged his shoulders and replied that he had no change. I walked out in disbelief. The whole experience was so grotesque, that it made me laugh, but on the other hand it was sad to witness such chaos in a top rated plant based venue.

Healthy and cheap

Build your own salad bowl was tasty and a surprisingly filling portion - all just fresh veggies but really good! Also bought some peanut milk from the shop which was so peanuty in flavour.

Pros: Large portions , Lovely service , Small vegan shop

the Best Vegan Spot in San Cristóbal 💙🌱

This place is incredible! I had such a hard time finding vegan food in San Cristóbal, but then I stumbled upon this small yet amazing vegan spot. I absolutely loved it 😊 The food is delicious and packed with all the nutrients you need to fuel up and keep exploring this paradise

They offer a convenient lunch box for your long tour days, which is fantastic because finding vegan options in many tourist areas can be quite challenging. Access to fresh and diverse vegan ingredients is often limited, making it harder to maintain a plant-based diet while exploring.

I really recommend this place 🫶

They can’t cook

Sorry to be so blunt but they simply don’t know how to make food at this place. Everything at dinner was incredibly bland. Also very poor quality ingredients. We also ordered 2 sandwiches for the next day and the bread wasn’t even fit for the birds. And the filling was just a careless mess of whatever cheap ingredients they cared to put in there (black bean paste and plantains).

Everything is prepared with either no love or consideration, or it’s just using cheap, old ingredients that have no freshness at all.

They have a really great looking menu but it just feels like no matter what you order you just get something that “passes” for that thing. No concern for taste or quality at all.

Pros: It’s all vegan

Cons: Everything Is bland, Cheap, Poor quality ingredients, Caused sickness

Flavorful Mexican cuisine

My tofu sautéed with tomatoes and onions was flavorful and had just the right consistency that melted in my mouth. The mole and fried bananas added a nice authentic touch. The staff was warm and friendly, and the place felt cozy.

Pros: Flavor, Price, Staff

Food was delicious

We didn’t get service for around 20-30 minutes after arriving and then after ordering just as most food came we were told they didn’t have enough for what we ordered. We changed a burrito for a baguette but then was served the wrong one. We didn’t need up having the baguette and left with complimentary banana bread.

Also we noticed other tables had complimentary nachos and dips in arrival, which we never received, I think we were unlucky.

Staff were kind and apologetic, but the hunger and wait unfortunately ruined the experience for us.

We had tofu and hongo burrito- very tasty, good size and price
Chilaquiles- very good and vegan cream was delicious

Pros: All vegan and large menu , Food was very tasty , Staff were helpful with language barrier

Cons: Slow service

Awesome lunch!

Almuerzo increíble! Los licuados estuvieron increíble, la tortilla de patata deliciosa, el guacamole está riquísimo. El pancake sin gluten es una locura. El local podría estar modernizado un poco.

Pros: Glutenfree pancake 😍, Guacamole y topopos, Tortilla española

Cons: Cafe con leche no muy bueno, El local

Para repetir

Tienen una carta muy extensa. Con comida para cualquier momento del día: desayunos, aperitivos, comida… tienen también tienda vegana. Ofrecen un vegan lunch box para llevarte en tus excursiones. El local es pequeño pero muy acogedor. El staff, encantador. Sin duda un lugar en el que repetir.

Delicious burrito.

I had a delicious burrito, which was quite a good size. It did take them around 20 -30 minutes to make it though, even though I was the only person in there.

This was a nice cheap place that we went for breakfast. The pastries were better than the meals, but it was all good.

Nice place, lots of options

I ate tortilla de patatas, it came with salad and guacamole. Nice lunch. I also tried carrotcake-muffin, coffee and smoothie. The drinks were not that good, coffee 2/5 and smoothie was too not that smooth, also lots of ice in that.

Pros: Also sweets 🤤, All vegan!

Good value for money

We had a buger and a Spanish omelette and they were both tasty. Also tried two of their dessets and were nice too! What we really appreciate it was the small free snack they gave us while we were waiting for our food. That was a really nice touch that you don't really see these days. Nice staff too.
