Serves meat, vegan options available. Restaurant located inside Aldeia da Fonte Charm Hotel offering some unlabeled vegan options. Previously named Hocus Pocus. Open Mon-Sun 12:00-14:30, 18:30-21:30.
This restaurant serves around ten vegetarians dishes that are listed on a dedicated section on the menu. The waitress knew what vegan means and was able to point out the vegan dishes.
I had the vegetarian “telha” the first time I visited. It was simple but tasty, vegetables were soft and crispy and chickpeas were soft. It was delicious and I liked that it had vegetable AND a source of plant based protein, which is not often in the Azores.
The second time, I tried the vegetables curry. It was almost the same vegetables as the “telha” but in a very good curry sauce.
Both dishes were generously served and had rice as a side.
I found that the prices are also pretty low for the quality of the food.
The terrace is lovely and a great place for a dinner.
Came here with my family and was quite surprised with the location. Beautiful outdoor sitting inside of a "Nature Hotel", surrounded by a charming forrest. I even took a walk while waiting for my food and found a beautiful view of the ocean. The menu has a vegetarian section, plus some other vegetarian dishes and starters, all marked as such. Nothing fancy or new, but tasty
Reservations recommended during the summer months
