Uncommonly Good

What a treat! Fabulous barista coffee. Oat milk 🧡 Relaxing atmosphere. Comfy chairs and tables to work in, super comfy couche
s and coffee tables to lounge in. Sustainable approach to sourcing and delivering. Delish cakes and smoothies. Charming, friendly staff 💓 Running side by side with Interwoven, a jewlery store with a beautiful mission to empower women with skils and provide a safe working space. Kudos!

Pros: Excellent coffe and food, Super friendly relaxing, On a mission to make to world a better place

Cons: Honestly, I couldn't find any negatives, 5 stars, but they're not fully vegan

Oat milk available

We didn't eat, as previously reported vegan food options are limited, but the flat white was excellent, and they now have oat milk available.
Nice ambience, too. At least for coffee highly recommended.

small cafe, few veggie bfast options

I went for breakfast here, I had a soy milk coffee (the only non dairy milk advertised) and fruit/yoghurt/granola. This was a small portion and not vegan - I think only bread jam is available for vegans for breakfast. Somewhat disappointing. The vibes are nice though and the WiFi is fast. It has an adjoining handmade jewellery shop.

Vegan, vegetarian and Gluten free options

A nice simple menu that offers Vegan, vegetarian and to my great happiness, GF options (I.e GF wrap replacement).
Great place for a light lunch or dinner when desperate for a western ‘fix’.
Slightly pricier but in line with Vientiane prices generally.

Quiet and cozy place

The place is very quiet and the food is okay. I had the best mango shake ever and pita falafel which was not bad at all. A bit pricy

Comfy coffee shop

Spacious and bright coffee shop to spend some time in working or just reading a book on a sofa.
Has soya milk for coffee as well as one vegan cake. A brownie that was okay but had a gritty texture (25k kip)

Not very cheap but if you get a large americano you can get a refill which makes it a reasonable price, especially if you are spending a while there.

They serve a falafel pitta but I didn't try it.

Pros: Comfy sofa , Good selection of tea

Cons: Coffee was quite expensive

Good place

They can cook for special request. I ordered falafel pita without fresh onion and garlic. They change sauce for me. It was fantastic! They give free water and Wi-fi so somebody come here for working with laptop.

Gluten free options!

I came here with a gluten intolerant friend, we sat outside which was lovely. They have amazing vegan cake (avocado chocolate) and I had the best ginger tea ever. I also had some kind of soup which was delicious! Would definitely go again! They sell some stuff too.

Few options, but relaxing

There aren't many options- I was told that the falafel has egg in it, so that leaves only the Mexican food, one sandwich, and some salads. The Morrocan chickpea and quinoa salad was delicious, and the soy milk they use is actually vegan (most places use lactasoy which has milk in it).
They also can make any of their Mexican dishes or sandwiches gluten free for an extra cost!

Pros: Nice place to relax

Cons: Few options, Expensive

Not cheap, and not many vegan options

However the quinoa chickpea salad I had was really good. Would go back again.

Socially conscious and delightful

Atmosphere is welcoming. Has space for children. Happy for people to sit and work there. Frequently offers water. Great quotes on wall such as 'Nobody needs a reason to do the right thing'. Food good - we tried the falafel in pita bread and it was all we would expect. Accompanied by nice, small salad and reasonably priced. Has box for receiving goods for Women in Development group.

Pros: great calming atmosphere, good food, reasonably priced and easy to find
