Lots of options!!!

Chic and fun restaurant with a nice vegan menu! There are options for breakfast, lunch/dinner, AND dessert!! Western style options as well as some traditional Thai dishes. Oat, soy, and coconut milk for coffee/matcha. The staff is super friendly.

Pros: Separate menu, Lots of options, Friendly staff

Best vegan options on the island

They have a dedicated vegan page on their menu, everything is really tasty and the service is nice. There are a lot of servers there but they all seem very nice. Went there every day of our stay and the food was great each day!

Pros: Vegan page in menu, Nice service, cool atmosphere

Cons: bit expensive

Highly recommend!

Good atmosphere, nice restaurant to sit, lovely staff and delicious vegan options. They have a separate vegan menu. I had a salad bowl, which was really fresh and tasty. Recommend!😊

Nice food and atmosphere

I had one of the vegan burgers. Very yummy! They have a separate vegan menu with a good number of options including some desserts. A bit more expensive than other places around but it is worth it.

Pros: Separate vegan menu , Yummy food, Lovely place

Cons: A bit pricey

Tasty food, some portions could be bigger with these prices

Tasty and main dishes are filling, there’s separate vegan menu
- Breakfast and Brunch options could be bigger, as it’s somewhat pricey place to eat

Really nice vibe

There were so many things we wanted to order! Great separate vegan menu with lots of options on the main menu made vegan with tofu. Really enjoyed the fresh Elephant Salad, which was massive, and the hummus. We could have eaten there for every meal!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Great cocktails, Friendly staff

Ate there three times!

We loved Elephant and ended up eating there three times in two days! We had THE BEST pizza, the vegetarian and switched the pesto base for the tomato - yum! We also had one of the salads which was really hearty and healthy and a really nice hummus. We also had cocktails one evening, iced oat milk coffees and fresh juices. Couldn’t recommend this place more!

Pros: Tasty food, Good vibe, Good value

Decent vegan food

They have a fairly extensive vegan brunch and dinner menu. All vegan food clearly labelled.

I had a burger that was nice enough. Not going to change your life but a good, reliablely vegan spot.

Delicious and lovely vibe

Have been here every day since it’s reopened! Lovely atmosphere with live music in the evenings. So far have tried the burger, breakfast burrito and pesto pizza - all delish!

Amazing food, nice atmosphere

It happens rarely that you accidentally find a spot offering vegan options, so we were very happy to find this restaurant. Weve already been here twice and had the pad thai, summer rols, island salad and the veggie bowl. For the pad thay ensure to ask for the vegan options, as the other one has the same name but has egg. All were great, portion sizes are good as well and it is nice to have healty and proteinrich food. Prices are okay too

Pros: Many options, Vegan specified

Cons: Limited deserts

Great brunch spot

I came here 4 times just for the Vegan Veggie Bowl, it was so good and honestly would've eaten it everyday. The service is really great and love the atmosphere of the place. I also tried the fries and the Hummus and would rate both of them. One time I did have to wait a little while for my food as they were super busy but they pre warned me so it was fine as I knew it'd be worth the wait

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Friendly service, Great atmosphere

Inconsistent

I’ve been there several times and the quality of the food differed from day to day. We’ve had too salty burger and too salty pad Thai as well. Brownie was ok and Khao Soi was good. They have free drinking water. Be prepared to wait a long while for your food.

Very delicious!

We were here everyday for breakfast and lunch while our stay on Koh Lipe. Try the salads, they are great if you are missing fresh greens whim travelling through Thailand.

A whole vegan section on the menu!

Just what vegan international travellers need when they arrive on a tiny island. Great food and friendly staff. Not the cheapest place on Waking Street but a meal and a drink for £7 isn’t bad at all!

Pros: A whole section for vegans

Solid Options for Vegans

Accidentally came across Elephant without even checking HappyCow and was pleasantly surprised by the number of options.

Vegan food clearly labelled in the menu with staff fully aware of vegan vs vegetarian differences (never a given in SE Asia). A plus point is the menu has a dedicated page collating all the vegan food.

Went for a breakfast burrito with guac and a Khao Soi. Both cooked well. I always think if a place can serve tofu that isn’t a white gloop, they know what they’re doing. Elephant passes that measure.

Pros: Page full of vegan options, Friendly staff, Tasty food

Cons: Always seems popular so seating can be busy!

Nice restaurant with nice Ambiente

Ne and a friend had 2 vegan burgers, which where both nice- not the best ones we ever had but still nice! There was live music playing and the place itself is quite lovely to sit in. The prices where around 250 baht.

We regulars now!

Everything we’ve tried there has been delicious and we’ve tried everything, some more that once. The vegan pesto pizza with onion remoulade is heavenly. Creative non alcoholic drinks such as strawberry, basil and lime
Are addicting. Death by chocolate dessert is a must try. Friendliest waitstaff who keep things flowing no matter how busy. The kitchen is slow but that’s what slow food is about. My husband accidentally left a 1000 baht tip when he meant to leave 100 and the waiter came after us to return it.

Pros: Many vegan options , Consistently delicious , Welcoming upbeat staff

Cons: Non

Vegan page in the menu

Elephant is rated highly on google maps and happy cow, and has a veg menu...

I had the veg version of the elephant burger, and a ginger mojito (Thaijito -.with Thai Sangsom rum). Both were pretty good, & better than expected on a tiny island, in the wet season.

Much appreciated 🙏🏻

Pros: Vegan menu page, Vegan burger is cheaper than the meat version, Located in the walking street

Cons: Not beachfront, Bit pricey (but everything is here)
