Nice vegan food

Definitely not 10/10, but they have some nice vegan options. They have nice seating areas to chill. The staff is not very welcoming and seems not motivated.

I stayed here and got 10% discount on food, but nonetheless it’s still quite pricey. I tried the vegan pancake, Hummus bliss wrap and the Yellow Island curry. The food was delicious though!

Not my favourite place, read the fine print

The floor had food scraps on it, you can’t wear shoes so that’s a bit gross, the food options were decent, we had the nachos and they were very different to what we expected, but delicious nonetheless.
Biggest issue for me is the pricing, unless you stay with the accomodation all the prices are ‘taxed’ 10%, when I order a meal and it has a price, I expect that to be the price I am expected to pay, I find this frustrating and unnecessary.

Pros: Options, Friendly staff, Tasty

Cons: Cleanliness , Pricing, Lack of air/fans

Delicious vegan and glutenfree options

They bake there own bread, really friendly staff that can tell you all about the ingredients. We had the falafel Bowl and Thai Pie which were both super delicious. Vegan food is marked on the menu.

Pros: Marked items on menu, Delicious food and drinks

Cons: Chairs/Tables are a little uncomfortable

Good flavor, limited options, slow service

Good Earth Cafe is at the center of the island next to a yoga studio. It sounds Veg friendly but there are only a few vegan options and no vegan desserts. The veg curry I ordered was quite tasty and hearty. The chickpeas were a nice break from soy protein. The service is a bit slow because only one person cooks everything fresh.

This is a good place to relax if you have time and want something fresh, but there are many other places with a larger variety of vegan options.

Pros: Relaxing, Fresh

Cons: Few options, Pricey, Slow

Tasty food

A good place for both breakfast and lunch. They seem to close earlier than their sign states, we haven't been able to get dinner there yet.
We had the tempeh dish and the porridge and both were really tasty and filling.

Pros: Several options including cinnamon porridge! , Helpful staff

Cons: No vegan desserts , Did not have soymilk at our visit, although stated

Good vibes and great food

We went there for dinner and had the Pumpkin and Spinach Gnocchi and Vegetable Satay. Both dishes were delicious and tasty. Especially the homemade pesto, peanut sauce, and gnocchi were terrific. A lot of vegan options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Good vibes and open space. Clean kitchen.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, High quality and fresh ingredients , Good vibes

Amazing smoothie bowls

The mango smoothie bowl is by far the best smoothie bowl I've ever eaten, I think I could happily eat it every day for the rest of my life!

I also had the stir fry vegetable noodles (very spicy, but enjoyable) and the vegetable satay.

Pros: Good range of vegan options, Lovely staff, Pool setting is nice

Cons: Boathouse setting not as nice as pool area

Good food but ok overall

If you are staying here, the breakfast menu is normally eggs on bread, fruit salad and a tea/coffee. If you buy otherwise, there is a better choice. The smoothie bowls are big, nice and healthy. You get a 10% discount if you are staying at H20. However it is disappointing some of the menu options were not available at all times.

Uninspired Food in a Gorgeous Setting

We were so excited to try the food here after seeing the beautiful environment around the place. Unfortunately the bruschetta we ordered was delivered on bread that was soggy and impossible to lift without it collapsing. The chickpea coconut curry was a basic fine meal with nothing particularly special about it.

Pros: Beautiful Location

Cons: Overpriced, Slow Service

There’s better places to go but still nice

We went for breakfast and although the smoothie bowl was good (really tasty and chocolatey) there’s definitely better places to eat on the island with nicer surroundings. As others have mentioned it promotes itself as being gluten free and vegan etc but actually doesn’t have that many options. No gluten free granola or bread. It’s an ok place to go if you’re nearby.

Average at best

Cafe attached to H20 yoga and meditation centre. This cafe advertises as vegan, gluten free and raw, however they still serve eggs, and as a part of the included breakfast when you stay here they only had fruit as an option for vegans!! Their menu isn't that great. However I did have the chocolate peanut butter smoothie bowl and it was very tasty.

Cons: Advertises as fully vegan but its not

Chilled and nice place for breakfast

We had a lovely smoothiebowl, oatmeal porridge and coconut coffee. Very nice and chilled place, with good karma vibes. Would have rated Good Earth Cafe 5 stars, if the porridge wasnt served with tahin on the top, that was a little wierd mix of tastes.

Pros: Many good vegan choices for breakfast and lunge

Cons: Medium price

Not the best Gili has to offer

This place is OK but like some other people mentioned it has some issues, one beeing that you have to wait a while for your food, even when there are few customers. The curry I had was so spicy I couldn't taste any flavours,the menu did not specify it was spicy which it should have, I love spicy food but this was next level spicy.

Pros: Great tea

Cons: Long wait

A few issues

There was a long wait and during the wait some other customers cancelled their orders due to it taking too long. The staff didn’t seem too bothered by this. We ended up cancelling our smoothies as it look too long. The hummus wrap was tasty though.

Didn't fullfill the expectations they created

Unfortunately a bit underwhelming in every way. They advertise 'raw food' and 'gluten free', but the only raw dish is a hummus plate, and all of their smoothie bowls contain gluten. The carrot bread is made with eggs, too bad. The smoothies are made with too much ice, so they taste cheap and make you freeze from the inside. The various menu entries that I tried all tasted a bit bland, and did not look or feel like they had been prepared with love. Overall, I found this place 'acceptable' - for someone who has to rely on vegan options - but definitely not great.

Tasty food in a little oasis

We enjoyed the chick pea curry and the hummus wrap. Both very tasty & enjoyable. A lovely little oasis of calm, if sliiiiightly pretentious.

Pros: Simple yet tasty food.

Cons: Small Asian serving size at higher, more Western , prices (e.g. €2,20 juice)

Good vegan option for international food

If you are vegan and need your fix of international food this place has it. The food menu is limited but there isn't really anyone else doing international vegan options on Gili Air.
Drinks menu is strong.

Pros: Hummus, pasta, bread etc, Hipster/yoga vibe

Cons: Hipster/yoga vibe, Cheeky staff, Flavours a little bland
