American style vegan food - Edit
Brought a large group of meat eaters here and everyone enjoyed their meal. The prices are really fair as well.

Pizzas buenísimas - Edit
Muy muy recomendable el Pura Vida Bar, las pizzas buenísimas y las croquetas exquisitas. Además, el trato del personal fue inmejorable y lo mejor..colaboran con diferentes asociaciones y Santuarios de animales. Volveré! ?

vegan pizza - Edit
I readed a lot of good reviews and saw coll photos about Pura Vida and decided to go yesterday.
Read moreI ordered a Margarita Pizza with vegan bacon...look delicious..taste...disgusting. I don't know why, maybe the mix of spices, maybe the vegan cheese (worst i ever tried, really bad) or the bacon but I COULDN'T EAT THE PIZZA.
It's very expensive , 14 euros...i don't recommend this place.
Furthermore, i found few little insects jumping in my food...

4 cheese pizza - Edit
im sad to say that this was really horrible. their 4 cheese pizza was the worst pizza i've ever had, and i've had a lot of pizza in my life. and €13 for disgusting pizza is too much. I had one slice, and then i got sick as soon as i got home. But to be fair, the guys working there was really nice and sad sorry for the bad pizza, so hopefully they'll make it better until next time. :)

Oso Itxura ona - Edit
Orain dela aste batxuk lokal honetara joan nintzen eta haien saltxitxa-ogitartekoa daztatu nuen, zoragarria zegoen. Zaporeduna oso gazia edo koipetsua egon barik. Bere bizkotxoa ere probatu nuen eta oso urtsua zegoen. Taberna begano gehienetan olio eta gatza gehiegi erabiltzen dute janarian, baina taberna honetan oso pozik atera nintzen. bar onetako janaria gluten gehiegi ez izateko kompromisua asko gustatu zitzaidan. Pertsonala oso atsegina da eta lekua oso erosoa.
Read moreA couple of weeks ago I went to this bar and ordered one of their hot dogs and it was really nice. It was very tasty and chewy without bein too oily or salty, which I find very often and vegan bars. I liked their compromise not to overdo gluten in their products. I had a chocolate spoon cake as well and It was very nice and juicy. The staff is very friendly and the place is very nicely decorated and welcoming.
Pros: Nice vibe, Great food, variety

Average fast food - Edit
When entering the place, we found yourselves in a nice and cosy, bar-like ambience. Since all tables were currently occupied, we were led downstairs to another bunch of tables. Unfortunately, the atmosphere felt a little colder (while the air definitely was much hotter). We decided to get a beer which was brought to us quickly and tasted great. We checked the menu and realised that the pizzas were quite pricey (11-15 Euros), so we went for the much cheaper burger platter. The patties were made of vegetables and covered with a slice of cheese, yet they could have been a little spicier. Combined with raw tomatoes and onions, the overall temperature of the food could have been better, too. However, the french fries were some of the best ones I'd had in a while, so I still consider the place without doubt as recommendable.
Read morePros: Great fries, Tasty beer
Cons: Slightly inconvenient ambience, Patty not spicy enough

Croquetas - Edit
Nice little spot here. Our friends LOVE the croquetas. The service is lovely but it is not fast, as quick as they can be though! Id need to try more of the menu as the burger didnt blow me away but the other food looks great

para vida la que dan las pizzas - Edit
He ido ya unas cuantas veces al Pura Vida y la verdad que todas he salido muy contenta (y llenísima).
Read moreLa primera vez que fui estuve con unxs amigxs de picoteo: pedimos las croquetas de la huerta, aritos de cebolla, pizza carbonara y dos trozos de tartas diferentes para compartir de postre.
Nos gustó todo mucho, sobretodo la pizza la cual repetí la segunda vez que fui a comer allí. Tuve que poner todos mis esfuerzos en terminarla porque no podía más y eso que iba con el estómago vacío. Así que me parecen más que recomendables para compartirlas, por si os da algo de reparo el precio (que en comparación con otras pizzas en restaurantes no están alejadas).
Me enteré la última vez que estuve (cuando por fin descubrí la parte de abajo) que el queso lo hacen todo ellos. Están muy buenos en las pizzas, aunque me pareció que el queso que le pusieron a los nachos se quedó más flojillo ya que no estaba fundido del todo y no se repartía por todos los nachos. Quizás una salsa de queso de patata o zanahoria podría quedarles mejor.
Por último, diré que lo que de momento más me ha gustado ha sido el sandwich 'La Tortura no es Cultura' no solo por el euro destinado a la fundación del mismo nombre, si no porque el seitán estaba muy sabroso y jugoso. Se nota también que es casero por como está marinado. Muy recomendable.
Me podrán contar con una clienta habitual ya que suelo salir mucho por la zona y mi plan es no parar hasta probar todas las pizzas, ¡si consigo resistir a la tentación de la carbonara!
Pros: espacio en la zona de abajo

Gran variedad de pizzas veganas - Edit
Probamos un par de pizzas y unas croquetas y estaban muy ricas, con el aperitivo nos pusieron unos canapés de calabacín a la vinagreta que imitaban a los boquerones en vinagre y estaban genial.
Read moreEs un sitio ideal para ir con amigos a tomar algo después del rastro de modo informal , es normal que tengas que esperar si ves que el restaurante está a rebosar , hay que ser comprensivos , el dueño me dijo que acababan de abrir y estaban buscando más personal.
Las hamburguesas tienen nombres de Santuarios y si las pides ellos donan parte del dinero al Santuario,
Resumiendo , si vas en domingo a hora punta es normal que tengas que esperar un poco pero no es problema si has quedado con unos amigos y mientras charlais y os tomais unas cervecillas.
La comida es tipo fast food vegana 100% que no esta nada mal de vez en cuando poder zamparse una pizza!
Pros: Variedad de quesos veganos, los empleados muy amables
Cons: domingos hay mucha gente por el rastro (normal)

Amazing pizza, lovely staff. - Edit
The staff were a highlight here as they were so nice. We all had pizza's and they were incredible. The food did all arrive at intervals, but that wasn't a big deal. They even offered us a free cheesecake which was delicious.

New vegan bar off El Rastro - Edit
Vegan bar serving vegan tapas and fast-food: 4 different burgers (each with a different source of vegan protein: soy, red beans, peas, etc.), vegan versions of tipical spanish sandwiches, 6-7 kind of pizzas, salads, croquettes, hummus, cakes, etc. They serve a tapa for free with each drink (paella and russian salad, to name I couple). It can get very busy on Sundays around 14.00 since it's located off El Rastro fleamarket and in La Latina quarter. 1,00€ out of every different burger goes to support 4 different well-known spanish animal sanctuaries, which I totally love! Good for you, guys!
Read morePros: location, amazing food, free tapa
Cons: very busy on central hours of Sundays
