Great place for lunch - Edit
I dont know why people are so critical in the previous reviews. It is a great place with beatiful little garden. You can buy vegan sandwiches, wraps, brownies, muffins, cookies and salads.
Read moreI was here at 15.00 and a lot of the vegan food were sold out unfortunately.
I had the vegan wrap with hummus and de vegan brownie. Both delicious
I was here again at 9.30 and the vegan stuff were empty again. I wonder why??

Brownie is good, but the cookie is not worth it.

Worth the try - Edit
I only tried the tiramisu and the brownie. The tiramisu did not taste like tiramisu, it was delicious, but might disappoint if what you are looking for is the taste of tiramisu.
Read moreThe brownie was very dry but delicious as well.
Pros: Lots of vegan options , Very delicious, Ingredient list is clearly written for all meals
Cons: Expensive , Tiramisu doesn’t taste like tiramisu, Brownie is a bit dry

Ordinary - Edit
At first it seems like a new concept for the city with many vegan options, but there isn’t any creativity for the menu. Vegan muffin, cookie.. These options are already on the menus of the places around.
Read moreAlso I think vegan toasts should have more things inside rather than just some vegetables.

Not bad, but relatively pricey - Edit
This is a newly opened sandwich/wrap cafe in an upmarket area of Istanbul.
Read moreAny time I've looked in here it doesn't seem to be very busy at all. I would be surprised if they manage to stay open for long without some significant changes.
You can choose from a range of baguettes, sandwiches, wraps etc. from the fridges. They actually have an entire fridge section for vegetarian and vegan options which is really something surprising in Istanbul.
Most of the vegan options are sandwiches with hummus, aubergine, carrot etc. Vegetarian options are various cheese sandwiches. There are also a small number of hot items and maybe soup available.
The main problem with this place is that the prices are quite high for Istanbul, and the sandwiches are just reasonable, not great. I tried the Akdeniz toast sandwich. It wasn't bad but the filling felt a bit skimpy, like they could have added a little more hummus or something to fill out the flavour.
The decor is really nice, and the upstairs area is especially nice. It looks like a good option for remote workers.
Astonishingly though, the coffee making facilities are very basic - just filter coffee, they can't seem to make any espresso based drinks like cappuccino or latte. This seems commercially crazy and completely at odds with the rest of the layout. You can however get tea for a reasonable price.
One other thing worth mentioning is that you can choose from a vegan cookie, muffin or brownie at the cash till area which is cool. I tried the brownie and it was pleasantly light and tasty, something nice to have with a tea or coffee.
