Third location. Dessert shop/tea room cafe has a cozy atmosphere and offers coffee and tea with plant milks, and some vegan baked sandwiches and desserts, plus a wide variety of vegan cakes. Sells Chaika handmade chocolate, tea, and house coffee. Mostly vegan except for dairy milk option. English language menu available. Please note it is almost always full so you might need to wait a bit for a table. Open Mon-Sun 10:00-20:00.

Impressive, worth coming back to Kaunas just to chill here.

I'm 8 years vegan and to be honest it's hard to impress me with vegan food these days, however, the cakes at this cafe were next level. As I don't like too sweet, the owner (French guy) advised me which one to pick and the blueberry/cookie was a winner. The pulled jackfruit sandwich was also amazing!
Thanks guys, great service, great atmosphere. Must visit for vegans that are in Kaunas.

Fabulous cakes!

I had a delicious coffee with pea milk (yum!) and a cranberry cake (sorry, forgot to take photos, I practically inhaled the cake, that's how good it was). Highly recommend! 🤤

Pros: Cake, Interior, Nice staff

What a gem 💎

We had a lot of different cakes at this place!😉

The mocca one, the chickpea caramel, the blueberry cheesecake and the brownie with peanut butter.

I think it is some of the best vegan cakes I have tried.

Definitely schedule a visit if you are in Kaunas.

Pros: Tremendous cakes , Sweet staff, Cozy atmosphere

All vegan, great desserts

I do not know why it is marked as "vegetarian". Because CHAIKA always was and is 100 % VEGAN.
They make delicious cupcakes and cakes. Latte is also great. You can usually choose your milk (all plant based).
And they recently went soya free as well. Which is great for me with soya allergy!

Pros: All vegan, Very delicious cupcakes, Coconut cream instead of soya

Cons: Price

Sweet

It is a lovely little cafe shop where you can drink coffees and eat delicious cakes. Be aware that you have to provide Covid certificates to sit inside but apart from that is a lovely little store.

Pros: Lots of cakes, Big variety of drinks, Different plant based milk alternatives

Cons: The plexy walls making the space a little crowded, Covid cert necessary to enter

Cosy cafe

We absolutely loved this vegetarian cafe which had various options of plant-based milk (soya, almond, etc). All the cakes were vegan, we tried the lime cake and the blueberry one and both were delicious. Also loved the idea of metal straws ☺️ Highly recommend!

Delicious sandwich!

Vegetarian restaurant with a lot of vegan options. We tried a jackfruit-avocado-veggie sandwich (€4,50). It was quite busy but the interior and also terrace is spacious so it was not annoying. We had to wait 20 minutes (told on forehand) but it was definitely worth it. The sandwich was really tasty and copious! We had a similar good experience with Chaika in Vilnius. Nice concept!

Pros: Very tasty vegan sandwiches , Spacious interior and terrace , A lot of vegan option

Cons: Can be quite busy and then some waiting time

Great place!

Chaika is a cosy cafe in the middle of Kaunas old town. If the weather is good, they have tables not only outside but some outside as well. The menu is mostly focused on large variety of teas, coffees and desserts but they also serve a few light meals, such as sandwiches. Everything in the menu is vegetarian and most of the things are vegan-friendly. For example, most if not all fancy cakes are vegan which makes Chaika the best place in Kaunas to deal with one's vegan cake addiction.

I would give Chaika five starts if they switch to being 100% vegan and stop charging additional fee for plant milks (now it's 0.3€ extra). Despite that, the place is highly recommended, so please visit them if you are in the old town.

Pros: tasty, wide selection of desserts, cosy

Cons: extra charge for plant milk, not completely vegan

They are not charging extra for the milk anymore! I visited them 2022 June.
