Very yummy, very healthy

I went during happy hour (I think every day between 7 and 8pm!) and got some sushi which was discounted (33kn to 21.10kn!). It was veggies, tofu and peanut sauce with wasabi and sesame soy sauce?? I think?? Honestly I have no idea as I couldnt read the packet but it was yummy. I also got a snickers bar which was AMAZING. BEST thing I have eaten in a long time (desserts werent included in the happy hour but was worth it). The staff member was lovely and there is a little selection of shop items in the back. I only give four as I’m not a massive health food person in general.

Many options, sandwiches rather bland

They have a lot of options, we loved the oatmeal with berries and the energy balls, but the soup and the sandwiches were rather bland.

Not exactly a cafe

Nice balanced offer, from energy balls, cakes and chia seed puddings to salad and wraps. But it's more of a grab and go than a cafe. Still worth a visit for quick bite on the move

Pros: Tasty cakes and delicious coffe

BE CAREFUL.. but worth a visit

Great products and food, but don't hesitate to ask about everything specifically. The woman is very friendly and helpful but her english isn't perfect. I bought a bottle of wine, a couple deli items, 2 espressos, 2 slices of cake and a bowl of quinoa salad. The cakes were delicious but didn't hold up well in the heat long. The salad was very good but i'm afraid had cheese. I was very concerned about the cakes and am not sure I asked about the salad. There was a little bit of something in it I discovered later which could have been plant or dairy based. Other than that everything was super, especially before close when some things are lower priced.

Best place for healthy vegan food

If you want healthy, mostly raw vegan food for fair price that also taste great this is definitely place to visit! It also has some cooked food, as well you can buy all sorts of other healthy vegan products. And if all of this is not enough for you to visit...the staff is amazing, one of most welcoming, warm and helpful staff I met.

All tasty vegan cakes.

I tried the tiramisu, the snickers and the chocolat cake and the chia pudding and all tasted really great. Don’t miss it 🌞

The woman of the shop speaks English and she is very nice.

There is also an organic and non organic shop (not all vegan) and they make 50% off on items which are expiring soon.

Nice place for coffee and sweets

The snickers bar is really delicious. Coffee is available with plant based milk. Nice place to sit at the window and watch what's happening on the streets. There are great products in the shop as well. Staff is very friendly.

The tiramisu was very good

The tiramisu was extremely delicious, although it was with a lot of unidentified nuts in the base...it's a problem that the ingredients are only in croatian when you're allergic

I read from the former review that it was at least vegan though

Good food but not all vegan

Food expert is a terribly pretentious name and unfortunately the staff were not expert. When asked if everything is vegan the answer was a cautious ‘yes’ followed by ‘except for honey’. In fact I found several items with milk in from a quick look at one or two shelves. Non vegans may not realise how disappointing it is to be told somewhere is vegan and then find out it isn’t, so listen to a vegan with 30 years experience of having to constantly ask and check ingredients, an all vegan place is a rare and treasured haven, a falsely advertised fake vegan outlet is annoying.
That said the vegan options were very good. They do a range of salads and sushi style ready to go meals and some fine raw cakes. Their Tiramisu is one of the very best I have ever had and their vegan “snickers “ bar a real treat. The prices are reasonable and I shall return to try out their other offerings. Good to see a new vegan friendly place in Zagreb, shame it’s not only vegan.

Pros: Excellent cakes, Good healthy salads, Friendly

Cons: Not all Vegan, beware honey in some salads, Ingredients wrItten Croatian only
