Yum! Home made-like

A down-home and relaxed cafe above the main street with street cars and pedestrians passing below - nice to watch from the window. Great menu of vegetarian options, I loved all the herbs in the Bulgarian yoghurt soup there. Some of it is very healthy, some a veggie comfort food type. I loved the details, like the “multi color salad” having ground Lin-seed in it. The entrance is really hard to find. You go in to a hallway between shops, and open a door on the left side to go up a level in a dark stairway. Kinda sketchy feeling, but the door to Dream House takes you to a yummy and comfortable restaurant. Casual.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, A very home-made healthy feel to the food. , Loved the yoghurt soup here.

Cons: The entrance is hard to find.

Simple and tasty

Nice little place with a smile interior and simple food. We ordered a main meal each and a starter. It was all tasty but non of it mind blowing. Would go back again to try some other options, though as it was a decently sized menu. Delicious home made lemonade.

Okay if you're hungry

We were there on a Sunday. There's only buffet on Sunday's. My boyfriend liked the food, I found it just okay. Everything very similar (chickpeas, lentils, beans, mostly in salads). Staff was very friendly. The place is a bit hard to find: It's on the first floor.

Pros: Friendly staff. Good value for money.

Cons: The furniture looked quite old and run down.

Delicious vegan options downtown Sofia

As a traveller I'm quite pleased I stumbled upon this great find. This central restaurant (1st floor of busy street) offers delicious options for the hungry vegan (and vegetarian) and is friendly for the wallet. Colorful, inviting decor and delicious drinks to flush it all away.

Pros: Central location, Budget, Good vegan options

Wonderful place to visit

Staff within the venue were kind and helpful in answering any questions we had about the menu. There is plenty of different food available to suit a range of different palettes and the portion sizes are plentiful especially for the prices.

The location is not that easy to notice from the street but it is very close to Vitosha blvd. It's situated on the first floor within a sort of small shopping mall. Once inside however, Dream House offers a comfortable environment and atmosphere.

Pros: Great range of delicious food on the menu, Large portion sizes, Friendly staff

Cons: Not clearly signposted

Simple and inexpensive

After wondering into a dark enterence way, and up a dingy stairway past the hipsters smoking you'll find the restaurant.

English speaking with English menu. Service was not great and the wait was a little long, but it was also quite busy when we were in.

We had four dishes: the tofu, the Sichuan potatos, indian cauliflower and chickpea fritters.

Food was simply made, each dish had its own unique flavour but at the same time each also tasted pretty one note in flavour. The potato for example tasted almost exclusively like soy sauce.

Otherwise: Tofu was on the soft side, I prefer firm, but this is a personal preference. Indian cauliflower was under seasoned, and tasted lightly only of turmeric. Chickpea fritters were dry, crumbly and bland.

Overall, the best thing I can say is that the individual dishes are inexpensive. Food isn't bad, it just isn't all that good either.

Loved it.

Really not that difficult to find.
We came on a Sunday and found a delicious buffet.
Maybe a little lacking in salt, but otherwise delicious and with plenty of options for everyone. Would come again if in Sofia.

Pros: Lots of vegan option

Cons: I don't live nearby 😁

Hard to Find - Worth the Effort

Visiting Sofia for the first time, we were very pleasantly surprised to find the Vitosha Boulevard pedestrian mall. Great people watching and food, if one is not vegan. Fortunately, the Dream House is located just off the boulevard (and was close to our hotel) so, once I found it, I got a take-away meal to share with the rest of my group (all non-vegans) at a sidewalk cafe. The staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful. The food was prepared well. The entrance to the place is quite indirect and not well-marked. However, they have a good sign on the front of the building so it is not hard to have faith that one will find it up a set of poorly lit stairs.

Pros: Location very near Vitosha Boulevard. , Excellent staff, Well prepared food

Cons: Entrance a bit hard to find

tasty ingredients but average flavors

We went here on 2 occasions and each time they had different specials. The menu is very big with lots of fresh and healthy ingredients. The only downside was the sauces and flavors of the dishes. We would recommend the broccoli soup and lentil soup though- very tasty! The location is very central and the prices are reasonable (5-6BGN for a main).

Good food

The restaurant has cheap, but still very good vegan foods. My boyfriend and me had some very nice vegan sushi (definetly recommend!), hummus + veggies, soy sprouts + mushrooms + veggies, some kind of dumplings and 2 lovely desserts (chocolate cake and coconut roll). All good food.

Pros: Good food, Nice looking place (colorful, informal), They have take out

Cons: Not that easy to find if you don’tknow where it is

One of the best places in town

A true hidden gem! Delicious food, great service and cozy atmosphere. The menu gives tons of choices and the prices are absolutely reasonable. Make sure to go to the Sunday all-you-can-eat buffet. 10/10

Nice place

Really cute restaurant with good vegan options. I took a dish from weekly menu, it was really good. It is a little bit hard to find, you have to go a floor up, but if you visit Sofia I believe it is worth trying. The waiter was a little bit weird, but tge service was fast.

Pros: lots of vegan options, cheap

hard to find, perfect for a quick bite.

The way to the stairs leading to the first floor are not that easy to find (behind a door covered in a large banner). But once inside it's a clean cozy place.
The food is not fine dining but a lot better than the average vegan/vegetarian options, especially at this price point ( we paid less than 10€ for 2 persons, including a glass of wine ).

I do recommend it when on a budget or looking for a quick meal!

Pros: mostly vegan menu, healthy options, close to vitosha blvd.

Cons: hard to find

Just okay

The food was not all that great but the price point was alright so I guess if you are on a budget, give it a try. Else, I wouldn't recommend it.

Pros: Nice waiter, reasonably priced

Cons: food was just so so, atmosphere sort of depressing

Amazingly (cheap) place! Definitely recommend.

Great food, great variaty of vegan options and a nice waiter. Most of all it was very cheap. No cons, other than that there was very loud noises coming from the street as they were rebuilding it. Nothing to do with Dream house of course :). Keep it going guys!

cheap food

It’s basic cheap food, I like that there was no added oil, the quinoa and vegetables was nice, the soya and vegetables was a little over cooked. The vegan sausage was tasty, the hummus with vegetables lacked many vegetables and the hummus a little salty. Overall cheap price and relatively good food. It’s hard to find but go into the shopping arcade and into the door on the left, up one flight of stairs and there is the restaurant.

cheap, nice atmosphere, good food

I've eaten there numerous times. It's an easy no-complicated food, some of the dishes are very good some not so. It's very cheap even for Bulgarian standard. A nice place after all.

Pros: cheap, lots of options

great!

I had a little difficult to finding the place... it’s actually on the second floor of the building. Use the stairs inside. Cool place— you should check it out. I have the curried chickpeas and they were amazing!

good location, food is ok

Not the best place in Sofia, but with central location. The food is a bit bleak, but hey- still vegan. Can’t really mess up cooking veggies.

It all depends on what you order

Having been back to dream house many times to eat, my tips for future visitors is to either go on a sunday, and try the tasty buffet for 7 leva (4.50 US dollars or £3.50)
OR
Order the hot foods/main courses, which are so amazing.

But don't order from the other sections of the menu. If you order salads or any of the cold starters, they are very bland, so be warned.
Dream house is a wonderful place to eat, if you know your way around the menu.

Pros: Very cheap, the sunday buffet is amazing

Unexciting veggie cuisine

It was standard uninspired hummus falafel type cuisine. It was very unmemorable, not much flavour in the food in a strip lighted cafeteria feel type setting.

Pros: good beer, taboulleh was good

Cons: lunch canteen atmospere, uninspired cuisine
