Stay here if you can!! - Edit
We so wished we had gotten a room here, but we just didn’t know. Luckily we stayed just around the corner, so we ate here every day.. sometimes twice a day! The space is very tranquil, the people friendly and we were happy to enjoy the pool. The food was delicious and even though we ate here every day, I still didn’t get to try it all! My favs were def the smoothies, the homemade tofu nuggets which I had on the Ceasar salad and the Asian noodles, and the nica breakfast! I so wish I had eaten more of the breakfast offerings. Also loved the desserts! I

A Hidden Gem in León - Edit
Coco Calala is a green oasis in the heart of León. The colonial-style property, with plenty of plants and a clean pool, offers a relaxing atmosphere. The rooms are spacious and lovingly decorated. The food is fresh, super delicious, and the portions are huge — all at a fair price! The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive. I spent a total of three months here and enjoyed every minute of it. Absolutely recommend it!

Superb food in a gorgeous jungle setting - Edit
The food was so good I went for both breakfast and dinner. Really diverse menu which includes pancakes, burgers, sandwiches, and burritos. The jungle setting was stunning. There is also a nice pool you can pay to use.

Innovative! - Edit
I had the Caesar salad and my husband had the pesto pasta. Never have I had Caesar salad as a vegan of 7 years, and I was craving something refreshing as the heat was suffocating. Alas, wasn’t my finest choice as the lettuce was warm and wilted when it arrived at the table, so if that is your aim, I would not recommend. However, the other aspects were so cool! The vegan “bacon” was such a fun texture and I loved the croutons. The sauce was rich and thick which is a win in my book. I snuck a taste of the pesto pasta and I can see how that would be a great meal if needed a good ol’ comfort meal or just a yum pasta dish. Prices were decent. All in all, would go back but would put more thought into what I was ordering and consider happy cow reviews better haha

Best cheesecake of my life and nachos - Edit
Came here for my bday and the cheesecake was everything I dreamed off. I never want a healthy version of cheesecake, I want like an actual 'cheesecake' and it was WONDERFUL. Nachos also 10/10. The whole menu is vegan and really good price.

Fantastic Food! - Edit
We've been for breakfast for 2 days in a row now. We tried the breakfast burrito, the nica breakfast (both vegan) and both versions of the vegan pancakes. All of it was very good, large portions and great prices! Lovely setting and a swimming pool to use also (C$100 for food eaters, C$150 for non food eaters). Also tried some of the juices, cold brew and teas. Would definitely recommend.

Great Food, Fair Price, Lovely Ambience - Edit
Walking in is like walking in a jungle. The dining is set beautifully within a quiet indoor garden with placings of flora that can naturally provide some privacy and intimacy. Swimming pool on the side behind a beautiful wall of climbing plants that can be used for a very small fee while dining and also when not dining there. I had the vegan nachos which were plentiful and delicious. My friend had the India burger which was great. Prices were fair for a tourists hotspot. Menu is extensive as well. Staff is welcoming and courteous.

Very nice and cheap - Edit
We came here for breakfast. I had the borito breakfast green smoothie and it was A LOT! And that just for ~ 6,7€
Read moreAlso the little garden and the pool which you can use are cute. Well definitely come back.
Just so you know it’s not completely vegan, so if you choose your food just tell them that you want the gegen version of it. 🌱

Nice to have a vegan/veggie place in Leon - Edit
I had the loaded nachos. It’s usually to share (they said between 2 or 3 people) but I was really hungry so I decided to have it anyway. It was so tasty and nutritious with vegan cheese as well. Managed to get two portions of leftovers out of it. Waiters were really friendly as well. There are a lot of trees and a pool (I didn’t swim in it as there were a lot of people and kids playing but it seemed nice). A really pretty location. It’s a little more expensive than some other restaurants in León but worth it especially if you’re vegan.

Schöne Oase - Edit
Thai-Curry und Burrito sind sehr lecker, auch wenn nicht sonderlich authentisch für ihren Ursprung. Hat mich jedoch nicht weiter gestört, da ich die sonstigen veganen Alternativen in Nicaragua nicht so sehr geschätzt habe.

One of the best vegan places - Edit
The owner is very kind and polite. The kitchen is so delicious. We had the bolognese pasta and we asked for zucchini noodles - highly recommended! Then we came twice for the francese burger - the best one! And then we had the chocolate smoothie bowl - so creamy! The pancakes - with fig jam- and chocolate pancakes - no comment. You just need to go there and have everything 😂

Great food great vibe and pool - Edit
Great vegan food, good selection. Had the tempura ‘prawn’ tacos which water just tempura cauliflower, not fishy, but nice. Marinated tofu would’ve been better. Bf (who eats meat) had the burrito and said it was one of the best he had ever had.
Read moreWent for Sunday brunch, was lovely but loads of kids in the pool was quite annoying and disturbed the peace with their shouting. But overall would return.
Pros: Lots of options, Huge portions, Pool
Cons: Took a long time for food to arrive, Quite expensive (most things £5+), Loud children spoilt the atmosphere

Lovely place atmosphere and food - Edit
Went last night for dinner and I was not disappointed had the salad with roasted veg quinoa and tahini dressing it was very tasty and huge portion pineapple with turmeric drink. Ended up paying c 310 equivalent to £6.84. Possible to pay by card (a plus when just arrived in Nica). I'll go back later on.

A must try! - Edit
This place was so good we came back for lunch the day after having had dinner here. The setting is amazing with plants and a pool but in the evening it's a bit tricky to find as you have to keep walking into "the jungle" with no signs. The food is incredible. We tried a couple of burgers which were both very tasty but the fried potatoes that came with were cold. For lunch we had the pesto pasta and burrito, again very very good, especially the burrito was flavourful. The juices are good too. Only con is that they were sold out of many items on the menu in the evening.
