Comida por kg excelente! - Edit
Fui ao Café & Cia por avaliação do Happy Cow e realmente adorei! Comida simples, mas muito bem feita! Almocei quase todos os dias lá!

Arma tu plato con varias opciones veganas - Edit
Aunque no es especialmente económico comparando otro lugares de Brasil que ofrecen comida por peso (buffet con balanza) hay buena variedad de opciones veganas y muy sabrosas: mucha ensalada, garbanzos, humus, frijol negro.
Read morePros: Variedad de ensaladas, Legumbres disponibles, Ubicación
Cons: No ofrecen postres veganos

Olá, Stefi. Tudo bem? Obrigado pela contribuição dos seus apontamentos. Como cafeteria, nossa proposta é realmente ser uma opção de comidas leves e que acompanham cafés e drinks. Não temos a intenção de servirmos almoços, por exemplo. Nosso cardápio atualmente é 50% vegano e 50% vegetariano. Quanto a isto todos os pratos estão devidamente identificados no nosso cardápio digital e estamos sempre à disposição para sanarmos quaisquer dúvidas, basta nos questionar. Sobre o tempero da sopa de tomate reconhecemos a falha dessa última produção, pois tivemos um desfalque considerável na equipe justamente no período de alta demanda no café, o que influenciou também no tempo de entrega dos pratos, já que são feitos todos na casa, com os preparos feitos na hora e não trabalhamos com produtos industrializados. Espero que em uma próxima oportunidade possamos te oferecer uma melhor experiência na nossa casa. Novamente obrigado pelas considerações, estamos atentos para trazermos ainda mais cuidado em cada detalhe no Único. Até breve. Miro

Comida gostosa e fresca - Edit
O restaurante oferece feijão sem ingredientes de origem animal, o que é meio difícil em Minas. Comida fresca e gostosa, não tem nada muito diferente, mas pelo menos sabemos que é seguro comer aqui. Vi opções vegetarianas de pratos que geralmente levam carne, mas não tinha uma opção vegana específica. Mesmo assim, deu pra comer bem. O preço também é justo.
Read morePros: Feijão sem carne e muitos vegetais , Preço justo
Cons: Poderia ter uma opção mais específica para vegano

Lots of options! - Edit
Self-service restaurants are a good bet for vegans like me because, in the worst scenario, you will eat lettuce and rice and call it lunch. But this one is FULL OF VEGAN OPTIONS! Beans without bacon (quite rare in Minas), brown rice, chickpeas, lots of leafy and starchy vegetables, everything delicious. My family eats meat and they also liked the place. The view is also very beautiful. Not expensive, for what it offers.

Best place in world heritage listed town - Edit
We spent four days in Ouro Preto. This is an amazing town. It has been listed as a world heritage spot. If you are visiting Belo Horizonte then it's only a short drive or bus trip to Ouro Preto (about two hours).
Read moreThere are many tourists here and many places to eat but no dedicated vegan/vegetarian places.
Cafe and Cia was by far the best we found. It is a pay by weight buffet and they have a lot of variety. They do serve meat but there are many salad choices as well as rice and beans and a couple of cooked vegetables such as sweet potato and wild spinach.
It's very clean and if you sit up the back section you get a great view out the window.
You can ask them what is vegetariano and sem leite (pronounced sin lechee meaning without milk - a very important phrase if you are a vegan in Brasil along with sem frango, without chicken, sem carne, without meat)
The staff don't speak English but understand the above.
The salads were all fresh and a lot of variety. No vegan deserts however so get some fruit on your plate if you have a sweet tooth.
Pros: Clean, Good variety, Fresh
Cons: Serves meat , No vegan deserts except fruit
