So good!

Amazing vegan place, extremely cosy with an array of options for brunch. I had the vegan omelette with an espresso and it was to die for.
I want to go back to try all of their other dishes!

Pros: Free wifi, Comfy seating

Cons: Expensive

Fantastic food and kind service in a beautiful space

I spent a week in Lisbon and once I discovered My Mother's Daughters, I had to come by daily for nourishment of my body and soul. Everything is vegan, everything I tried was delicious, you see the food being prepared with love, the service in English was kind and empathic, the design of everything inside is done with exquisite care.

Being a vegan in Lisboa and passing this place would be a loss.

Pros: Fantastic Food, Emphatic service, Beautiful design

Vegan and Friendly

A very cozy venue with interesting decoration and very friendly staff. Food is strictly vegan or raw vegan - whole 3 chunky stars from me for that alone. Menu is quite divers but unfortunately with no photos (which is understandable in case a big chunk of their daily manu changes regularly). Nevertheless, some photos would help to avoid a disconnect between expectations and actual dishes (portions vs prices seemed a little off).

Pros: Delicious food, Row options (including desserts), Friendly multinational staff

Cons: Portions vs prices, Menu has no photos (somewhat understandably tho)

Some good dishes but too expensive

I've been to My Mother's Daughter on three separate occasions and my experience has not been very consistent. The staff was always lovely and the space itself is beautifully decorated, but some of the items on the menu were a fail. I tried the Benedict No Egg on my first visit and it was a big hit. On my second time there, I tried the tacos and the omelet, but they were both disappointing - not that tasty and portions too small for the price. On my third visit, I decided to go for the Benedict no egg, but this time around, the no egg was bland and nothing like the deliciousness I tried before. Thankfully, I had a slice of the pumpkin and persimmon pie and that totally made up for the disappointment that was the Benedict no egg. The food is nice overall, but I think it's way too expensive for the size of the portions. The room is also tiny and can feel very cramped when all of the tables are full, so I would recommend going there on less busy times.

Pros: Creative dishes, Staff

Cons: Expensive, Small portions, Small space

OK but expensive

Lovely decor and plates. Staff friendly, helpful and attentive. It’s just a shame the menu is so bread-oriented and the bowls of the day seem to have more raw food than cooked. If you don’t want raw kale or bread, this isn’t for you.
Juices and cake very nice. In future I’d probably skip the main and just have the drinks - and sit outside because it’s so cramped inside.
I don’t want to diss the concept but I’d rather eat somewhere more reasonably priced like Alfarroba around the corner. For a dish of the day plus cake and juice it was 21.50!

Pros: Gf options , Fresh juices , Lots of greens

Cons: Very expensive , Small place - cramped , Have to book via Instagram

Delicious food - eco mindset

I had the veggies & crackers plate which comes with several deeps (hummus, beetroot and cashew) which was amazing and the quiche with leak and other veggies which was also great.

I loved the eco nupkin from recycable paper.

Pros: variety, Quality

Cons: A bit pricy

Good place for brunch!

Had a nice brunch there with vegan dishes: delicious fresh fruit juice (but not enough cold though), good vegetable quiche and really nice soy with cajou yogurt for my cousin incredible tartine with tofu, sauce, spinach and mushroom, good green sencha tea and chocolate pumpkin pie for me.
You feel really comfy in the place thanks to the decoration, and you could spend hours in the restroom...
The owners are kind, flexible and they can speak english and french. Good place!

Pros: Many choices for vegan.

Cons: A little pricy

Comida muito saborosa e com óptima apresentação

Fomos almoçar. No menu é tudo vegan. O espaço é muito acolhedor e confortável. O serviço foi simpático e eficiente. Pedimos sumo manga maçã (estava óptimo) e serviram-nos água aromatizada.
Pedimos o bowl do dia e omelete! Estava tudo delicioso!
Para sobremesa pedimos banofee (excelente!) e bolo de chocolate ( saboroso mas um bocadinho seco).
Adorei o espaço e a comida! Acho que os doses deveriam ser mais generosas. Preços aceitáveis.
Vamos voltar com certeza!

Pros: Comida muito saborosa , Espaço acolhedor e bem decorado, Simpatia

Cons: Doses pequenas

UAU!!

Delicious. Everything! We ordered a cold pea soup, a broccoli quiche, bread with vegan butter, and a vegan chocolate cake (the cake didn't survive for the photo!). The place is beautiful, with values that means a lot to me: apart from the vegan and plant-based menu, the restaurant builds is menu depending on the fruits, vegetables, and ingredients of the season. All the restaurant and place is also decorated with elements reused and recovered, with a concern for what is national and with a policy of zero-waste (we notice the originality in taking advantage of the peels of the fruit like oranges, lemon, melon or watermelon and put them in the water!). I loved this restaurant, and it's, so far, one of my vegan restaurants of choice in Lisbon.

Delicioso. Tudo. Pedimos uma sopa fria de ervilhas, uma quiche de broculos, pao com manteiga vegan, e um brigadeiro vegan que não sobreviveu para a foto. O espaço é líndissimo, com príncipios e valores que me dizem muito: para além da questão vegana e plant-based, o restaurante tem um menu da época, sendo alterado consoante as frutas e legumes e ingredientes da estação; todo o restaurante e espaço é também decorado com elementos reutilizados e recuperados, com uma preocupação pelo que é nacional e com uma política de zero-waste (notamos logo a originalidade em aproveitar as cascas da fruta como laranjas, limão, melão ou melancia, para colocar na água!). Adorei e é, até agora, um dos meus restaurantes veganos de eleição em Lisboa.

Lucky Lisbon!

This wonderful find was near my hotel in Lisbon and it has so much to offer. The food is amazing and staff are friendly. The sisters who run it are inspiring and their ethos is a game changer. I’m converted to oat milk 👍

Fantastic

Everything here was so, so good. Staff walked me through every item on the menu. Original and interesting—very foodie/fancy. It is correspondingly expensive and the portions are tiny.

Pros: Unbelievably tasty, Great staff who speak English, explain everything

Cons: Expensive, Very small portions

Unusually good,original menu, informal and friendly service is how we would describe this delightful restaurant.

The food was all very tasty. We loved the lentil Dahl dish and the penne. Even the bathroom was unusual !

Pros: Lots of options.

Colorful food

This little place is a real gem. I was attented very well by a nice staff, who explained me the day's specials and the menu (the menu is only in portuguese, but do not hesitate asking for help). I have a very good breakfast there: a granola with seasonal fruit and oat milk, a slice of carrot cake with lemon and coconut topping and a yellow juice made out of many ingredients that I cannot remember all. It exceeded by far my expecations. And was not expensive at all.

Pros: nice staff, healthy but still tasteful food

Very nice place!

Our first visit to Portugal and our first time eating at this restaurant. Interesting vegan menu with lots of salad and rice bowls. We chose to eat the Mushroom “Omellete” and and Vegetable “Souflee”. Both were very tasty and came with different side salads. Looking around the restaurant, all the food looked great, including the desserts! Would highly recommend!

Pros: Great food, Very nice staff, Nice decor

Perfect vegan cafe

We loved this little vegan cafe! You MUST try the vegan burrata - best vegan cheese I’ve ever had. Lots of different savoury and sweet options. Very tasty chocolate cake. A few tables outside. Incredibly friendly and helpful people working there.

Cafe for the vegan future!

Wow! Great decor and vibe - everything is locally sourced and sustainable. The waitress was very friendly and explained the whole menu to us. We ordered a few dishes to share and were not disappointed by anything we ate, everything was full of flavour. We ordered a couple of cakes which were so delicious I nearly cried. Would definitely recommend and will be coming back next time we’re in Lisbon!!

Pros: Everything is delicious , No processed foods or refined sugars, Friendly service

Cons: No English Menu

Peaceful and amazing

I felt in love with this place since I first tried it. One of the best vegan restaurants in Lisbon, with plenty of fresh food and sustainable / zero waste dishes. I’ve tried the bowls more than once and I recommend every single one of them. They use local and vegetables of the season which is a nutritional plus for this place :)

Very small place, expensive, but good food

The restaurant is a very small place, just 9 tables inside, a few outside, and its packed so you barely have space to walk. Nicely decorated. Good place for a quick lunch. Freshly prepared food. Good attention by the waiters. Drawback, it's pretty expensive. A salat was 11€, a very small drink 3,50€. If price doesn't matter a good option.

Pros: Nicely prepared fresh food, very good service

Cons: Expensive, packed wall to wall

Encantador e Maravilhoso

Melhor restaurante Café de Lisboa, um lugar muito tranquilo e calmo, transmite paz e uma sensação acolhedora. Gostei muito do meu Matcha Latte e do sabor, qualidade e da apresentação delicada! Tem muitas opções lindas de pratos e sobremesas, apresenta um cardápio variado e completo !! Recomendo muito este lugar!
