Would give 5 stars

We Loved the Pancakes, the Shakshuka and the Avocado bread with mushrooms. The Pancakes came with Maple ayrup and the weiter knew what veganism means.

Pros: Oat milk, Fresh orange juice, Nice to sit Outside

Cons: Mediocre Coffee

Pancakes with syrup and cofee

The place is a nice spot. I ordered pancakes in the vegan option and an American coffee. They serve me quickly and with a cute presentation. Pancakes also include fresh fruit and yummy. The manager visited our table giving us welcoming and asking for our opinion. I think was a great place, quietly, gently, and with a delicious vegan option. I love it! And hospitality is also very important, grateful for that.

Pros: Pancakes 🥞 delicious with fresh fruit (treasure), Hospitality, Cleaning areas

WATCH OUT!

Summarized: They do not really care if they serve you vegan food or not.

Bitter bistro bar & restaurant is a really nice spot with multiple options that can be made vegan. We had an avocado sandwich and pancakes — though a little bit overpriced — totally ok.

Unfortunately the kitchen staffs knowledge about veganism is limited as we got honey with our pancakes — though we specifies them to be vegan.

When we got our pancakes we asked right away if it came with maple syrup, something the waitress could assured us. We put it on the pancakes but with the first bite noticed the distinct taste of honey.

After insisting it was honey the waitress checked with the chef, and yes indeed it was honey.

We were told later by a guy that seemed to be a manager or such, that the reason we got honey was that the supplier hadn’t delivered.

I was going to rate the place higher, but as they on top charged us extra for maple syrup, after I couldn’t eat 1/3 of my food contaminated with honey. It’s a clear 1 star from me.

See the receipt that I ordered VEGAN pancakes.

If you have no special dietary requirement I guess it’s fine to eat here, but if you do I would steer clear of this restaurant as they don’t seem to take dietary needs seriously.

Cons: Couldn’t care less that they served us honey

Excellent vegan options

We came here for breakfast and to their New Year’s Eve dinner. They’ve always supplied a separate vegan menu and the owner has been very attentive and kind, making sure we were taken care of. Highly recommend for your time in Tirana.

Pros: Good food, Good cocktails, Helpful and kind owner and staff
