affordable vegan bowl

We liked the bowls a lot. You can costumize them and there are several vegan options. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable about vegan food. The place feels cosy and vibrant. Also very good prizes! The portions are a bit small but totally reasonable for the prize.

Good and cheap food

The veggie bowl is pretty tasty and cheap. Unfortunately it's not sooo filling. The staff is really nice.

Great little place!

Cute little cafe that has two options for meals - one of which is vegan and includes falafel Pattie’s, gallo pinto, roasted squash, and other veggies. The bowl wasn’t huge but was very filling. Very sweet owner and loved sitting in the little window seat!

Pros: Authentic , High quality food, Reasonably priced

Good for Cartagena

I can't say I loved this place but Cartagena isn't super vegan friendly so it's worth stopping by if you're looking for something easy. The falafel bowl had fresh nice ingredients but was lacking flavor and when we asked for some sauce the woman working was clearly pretty displeased. The bowl is on the smaller side.

Couple Vegan bowl options

Vegan bowls with local ingredients like coconut rice and beans. The bowl includes more than what the actual menu says.

Pros: Tasty, Includes more ingredients than what the menu says

Cons: Small, Not the cheapest

Absolutely delicious food

El Bololo is such a cute little place, the place is lovely and the owners are a very sweet couple. They made me feel at home and with the food being so delicious, I kept coming back everyday that I was in Cartagena. The food is so fresh and healthy, for that reason one of the best I've had so far in Colombia. The vegetarian/vegan option is with falafel and absolutely delicious. The fresh juices are also very tasty.
Tip: take the seat at the window and enjoy the view of the Plaza Trinidad.

Great food in the centre of Getsemani

Really lovely little restaurant. They have veggie options and you are able to mix and match different bases and different types of veg. Only 20k pesos with a drink so great value! Staff are super friendly especially Howard!

Great little option in Getsemaní

Great little family-run place on the piazza in the heart of Getsemaní. We tried the Veggie bowls 4 ways and all were delicious (swapping rice w quinoa, grilled veggies w salad). Good drinks, the staff are all very charming, and the location is great, with a window seat onto the bustling square. My only suggestions might be for a slightly bigger portion to make it a more filling lunch, and some sauce to go on the falafel – the best vegan options always have sauce! They have only been open for a month, so go show them some support so they will offer more vegan options!

Pros: Good taste, and made with love, Friendly

Cons: Portions could be bigger for the price, Falafel sauce please (tahini lemon?)
