Nice - Edit
Was quite busy when I went so service was a bit slow but staff were nice. I ordered a house salad which had quinoa, grilled veg (no mushrooms), carrots, lettuce, tomato, cucumber and some fresh fruit like persimmons, kiwi and apples. Was nicely dressed as well and very filling. Caffe mocha was very nice too!

Buena comida - Edit
Buena opción vegana si visitas Sintra. Tenían plato del día sopa de legumbres y shawarma con arroz, las dos opciones muy buenas de sabor. Probamos también el falafel, súper bueno. Tiene opciones geniales para desayuno y también zumos variados.

A lovely find! - Edit
Menu is environmentally conscious as it changes according to the seasons and sources ingredients from local producers as much as possible. What a great find for a day trip to Sintra! It felt great being able to relax in this cozy corner.

Unexpected find, yet delicious - Edit
After finishing a tour of the Peña National Palace, I stumbled upon this cute little place.
Read moreThe Apple-turmeric-ginger juice was fresh and amazing refreshing.
The green bean soup was nice, light, a perfect introduction to the main course.
The Moussaka was unexpectedly great. It was nutritionally dense, filled with lentil and eggplant with a nice cashew topping. The salad accompanying it was refreshing.
Pros: Fresh ingredients, Friendly staff
Cons: None

Great friendly service, we came at the end of the day so unfortunately the special and quiche had sold which we’d love to have taken away, but this is a good thing as it shows how fresh everything is and it’s not just cooked out packets and freezers. We had the burgers and took a selection of cakes and loved it. Wish we’d had more time to visit again.

What can I say but yippee - Edit
Whenever a place has this many reviews I wonder if there's anything I can add, as other diners have said, this place is delicious.
Read moreFriendly service, fresh fresh food: I am very picky about my veggie burgers and it was just delicious, Chandler got the specials of the day which was chickpea soup and Katsu curry.
Oh my gosh that chickpea puree made me wonder how the heck did they make this , I love making soup at home but I have not made anything that tasted this good. Curry with rice, sublime.
FRESH is the name of the game here.
We ended our meal with a spinach cake. Yes spinach cake that was chocolate with chocolate frosting and was amazing . 🤩

Amazing tofu! - Edit
The scrambled tofu here was absolutely delicious - it didn't look super special but was lovely and Herby. The special Portuguese stew wasn't that great but I enjoyed the beans and chorizo. Really nice place and friendly staff.

Cozy stop, good food - Edit
Cozy little place with good food. Very welcoming & friendly lady. We had the dish of the day which was a breaded seitan filet with mashed potatoes and greens. It was quite delicious! The cakes were huge so couldn't resist ofc. Good texture and not overly sweet. Would give 4,5/5 but the app doesn't allow.

We ate here twice and really loved everything. They also served us brunch the second time (Saturday) which was great especially in terms of the value for money since they serve 3 dishes 2 drinks. Will definitely recommend this place!

Good Food, honest price - Edit
The staff is nice and everything is homemade. We had the dish of the day (which was not wonderful but we believe it was this specific dish) and the burger (that was really tasty). The carrot cake is something 😍.

Vegan restaurant in Sintra - Edit
While one of the staff members was always smiling, friendly and attentive (behind the counter), the other one who took the order didn't write down anything so she forgot to prepare my smoothie and I had to ask twice and I just received it after the entrée. She even said she had a bad memory (but didn't quite do anything about it).
Read moreThe food I had was okay, nothing strikingly outstanding, especially the canela mela dessert. The place is pretty small and if crowded it can take a while to be served.
Unfortunately, it's a bit farther away from the village.
Pros: Staff, Offers traditional Portuguese dishes
Cons: Narrow bathroom!, Small place, Location
MelaCanela
I remember you and your nice friend (you both were nice) and the busy day we had. So sorry we weren't up to your expectations and thankful for you being there nonetheless. Melanie
