Inviting space, ok food

The space looks great and very inviting, not the most comfortable as it seems that the chairs are mostly suited for children, so family and dog friendly which is also nice.
The food (both the quiche and the cake) are nothing to write home about.

Pros: All vegan, Also a little shop

Cons: Taste

A superb place to head for some healthy homecooked goodness on the Algarve's west coast

Roots cafe serves up a lovely selection of fabulously fresh and delicious vegan lunch dishes alongside their superb selection of homemade cakes.

Amazing sweet potato waffles topped with hummus and guacamole, vegetable frittata with a mega fresh green leafy salad or roasted red pepper and tomato soup were just a few of the options on offer when we stopped by. The cake display was hard to resist too with fruit topped chocolate cheesecake, chunky apple cake or iced banana cake all looking marvelously tasty.

The friendly staff and chilled vibe of the cafe space add to the experience, and this goes down as a superb place to head for some healthy home cooked goodness on the Algarve's west coast.

very cozy place!

I had the acai smoothie which was reeeaaally good! & ate a sweet potato waffle ā€” the portion was way bigger than I expected, I almost couldnā€™t finish it. The salad & veggies on top were all fresh & the dips/pesto really yummy.

I like the concept of this place! Almost feels more like a living room as the staff prepares the food & everything in the same room.

Pros: Cute location , Friendly staff, Yummy food

Cons: Eating on the tiny chairs could be difficult

Great nutricious wholefood options

A really cute place with nice interior and a broad menu of wholefood creations and sweets. The portions are rather small, but that leaves room for a sweet treat. The staff is very friendly and the place is really inviting to slow down and stay a while.

Pros: Cute place , Nutricious Wholefood creations , Many sweeets

A total gem. In the middle of Algarve

A dream come true? Finest vegan dishes: savory? sweet? healthy? extravaganza? You name it, they have it. ā€žSā€˜pressoā€œ in a bamboo cup, pastel del nata as a tart, local veggies by the kilo, nice wine, cashew cheese? Itā€™s all there a special atmosphere. True gem 5ā­ļø**

Pros: Variety of dishes, Super sweet, Fruits 'n veggies 'n wine 'n more

Extraordinary and tasty

Found this place while traveling to the south of Portugal, there were obviously no vegan cafes nearby, but suddenly we found them and we're very pleased. It is a special and extraordinary place. Tasty waffles, good deserts and drinks and awesome staff!

Yum! Organic and vegan

Yum! Organic and vegan. Super combo.
The only thing that bothered me was that the cook often smoked outside. This does not fit for me with the store and she has then also the residue from smoking on the hands what then goes to the food when she prepares it.
In the entrance area is a saying: Take good care of your body, it's the only place you have to live ...šŸ˜‰#Veganuary

Pros: Yummy, Vegan, Organic

Cons: Smoking staff, Not easy with baby /toddler

Ideal Vegan/hippie place

A very authentic vegan cafƩ, with low seats like pillows and very low chairs. The staff is super friendly, the food is delicious, varied and fully vegan. So if you're nearby make sure to visit this place!

Pros: Hippie vibe, Great food/drinks, Friendly staff
