Cute, cosy, and has light food.

I really enjoyed the vibes at Green Hippo. It made people feel comfortable to just exist here. I like it. The food was also enjoyable. Love some light meals. But yeah, nice vibes

Pros: Vibes

Meh

They were out of kale (and 75% of the menu seems to include kale), which was a letdown. The food we had was OK. It looked nice but was basic. I also asked to have the black rice replaced with quinoa and they didn’t follow through. This was not really a tasty meal (for both of us).

Good Options and Seating

Tried the tofu bowl off of their dinner menu. Really good, peanut sauce was yummy and not too sweet tofu was cooked really well. Lots of outdoor seating in a pretty square.

Great and cozy breakfast place

We had an avocado toast, vegan banana pancakes with chocolate spread, a green smoothie and a red smoothie for breakfast.
The pancakes were very good. The avocado toast was good, but nothing special, though the bread was really nice.
The smoothies were also good.
The service was really fast.

The atmosphere in the cafe is really cozy (lots of pillows, natural light)

Pros: Pancakes :), Cozy atmosphere, Super fast service

Ok

It was very busy!! The portions for the avocado toast looked very small for the money so we opted for the porridge. We weren’t aware that the porridge in Finland is very different! Made with rice maybe and a lot of salt - not to our taste unfortunately.

Staff seemed very rushed and stressed! Was not a relaxed experience.

Could be better

They told us that the food would take 10 mins to be ready, but it took over 20 minutes and they weren’t sorry for the delay. Tofu bowl tasted like peanuts and the broccoli was almost raw. Nothing special really. The outdoor eating space was cool and there were many vegan options on the menu.

Lovely little cafe with great vegan options. I ordered the vegan burger but then had food envy when I saw the Buddha bowls!

Lovely terrace

Although enjoying the terrace is limited just to a couple of months due to Finnish weather, it worths the visit to this restaurant because the dishes (not all of them vegan but with plenty of options, properly marked in the menu) are delicious. Good dish size, nice service and welcoming place.

Fast service

While not all vegan, the majority of the menu was either plant-based or easily modified. I ordered the Buddha Bowl and it was excellent. The service was lightning-fast despite how busy it was at the time. Our food came out maybe 5 minutes after we'd sat down.

Pros: Tasted great, Fast service

Delicious breakfast

Both breakfast options we had (toasts and chocolate pancakes) were excellent. We also liked the location and the outdoor tables. The place was a bit crowded and we had to queue to order at the counter.

Great breakfast

I had the porridge, the avocado toast, and a cappuccino with oat milk. Even though the porridge is simple, it was so delicious! The avocado toast was very nice too. Loved how cosy the place is, I’ll definitely come back again. #Veganuary

Pros: Quite affordable
