Vegan options are good

The vegan croquetas are not announced and are really good. Some dips are great but overall too many non vegan options. The service may not be amazing and they are a little slow

Updated from previous review on 2023-08-06

Pros: Vegan croquetas

Cons: Expensive, Options not clear

Only ok

I appreciated the various options but didn't find it spectacular. The space is cute and the outdoor seating on a cute street is nice.

Un bon moment

Plusieurs options végétariennes et vegans. Nous avons été bien reçu et tout était très bon et fait maison: guacamole, muhamarra, croquetas, et desserts. Endroit agréable avec terrasse .

Vegan-friendly and dog-friendly

Great vegan options here, and they had a great vegan cabbage/chickpea dish on their menu del día. Our little dog was welcome inside.

Nice place, clearly labeled good

We sat in the terrace, literally by the cathedral. The food is quite cheap ND the vegan/vegetarian options are clearly labeled (the have many!). Gluten and lactose free dishes are also noted.
There's limited seating area.
Would a recommend!

Pros: Many vegan options, Clear labels

Cons: Few seating

We had the dish of the day (grilled aubergine) and the falafel and both were delicious. The service was also super friendly and we had some great local wine, too (txakoli).

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Delicious food , Great wine

Get the falafel.

A lot of the food here was good - tapenade and ratatouille were definitely tasty. BUT GET THE FALAFEL I don't know how they made their vegan sauce but it changed my falafel life. It's better than hummus. I would go again just for the falafel.

Pros: Falafel, Falafel, Falafel

Food below average, indifferent staff

Had a salad which was not especially pleasant, moutabal (baba ghanoush) which was basically mush. Guy friendly at first then more interested in getting to his mates outside and placed my food, without acknowledging me. in passing on the way to his friends. Place a bit shabby too. Needs some love all round.

Pros: Vegan options

Friendly service

Freshly made cafe food. I had the falafels which were delicious. You won't have a big meal here but the menu has what you can have, clearly labelled. This is more lunchtime food. They've corrected the tzatziki note on the menu to show it's not vegan. Service really friendly and helpful.

Friendly & Wholesome

We had to find somewhere to eat at short notice. The 'directions' from 'Happy Cow' pointed us to a nearby square but that wasn't correct. It took us a while to work out we needed to go to the 'Old Town' which was a bit of a walk. Not really the place to go if you were looking for a full evening meal. The food is tapas style, the quality is good and the quantities are generous. Excellent local beers and I recommend the stout (10.5% about!).

Pros: Friendly, good English, helpful, Very good value for money. , The locals go here, always a good sign

Cons: Not suitable for evening meal.

Super tasty!

Minimal menu but all clearly marked with vegetarian/vegan symbols, and friendly and helpful waiter with good English to answer any questions! :-) I tried the hummus (accompanied by crackers), guacamole (served with tortilla chips) and the falafels (12 pieces, served warm with a curry/yoghurt dip) - really fresh and tasty food, perfect evening snack after drinks! Cool place to hang out with magazines and books available to read. I'd definitely recommend as a place to go for a afternoon/evening snack! :-)

Pros: Vegetarian/vegan symbols, Vegetarian dishes which could be served vegan, Friendly, helpful staff
