Favorite Cafe! ✨

Our favorite Breaky spot in Mirissa. Amazing menu, delicious food especially the smoothie bowls. Can also recommend the vegan pancakes and the vegan chocolate cake. Very good matcha latte with soy milk. Friendly staff, cute location, nice shop in the cafe, fair price. Would highly recommend it.

Nice cafe with many vegan options

The cafe offers many vegan options, such as bread either avocado & grilled tomatoes. Things labelled with a * can me made vegan upon request, such as the topping of garlic mushrooms on the bread.
I had vegan banana pancakes & I could choose between different sauces, such as peanut butter, chocolate sauces or caramel sauce. The pancakes were topped with 2 fruits of choice (mango, strawberries, passion fruit and banana) and whipped coconut cream. It was very tasty

Pros: Many vegan food options

Cons: Soy milk wasn’t available today

Modern place!

It is cute, modern place - boho style.

The food was ok - took chia pudding and juice.
The juice was more thick, so it was something between juice and smoothy which was nice😊

There is 10% service charge and if you want to pay by card, they charge 3%.

good vegan options

I had the nacho bowl and it was good balanced and tasty.
Accompanied by a decent iced americano for a very fair price.
Staff is very friendly and welcoming.

Pros: Choice of a few vegan options , taste of the coffee, friendly waitress

Cons: automatic service charge (10%)

Mostly Vegan

Next door to our home stay, we opted to have our meals here. The poke bowls, burgers, smoothie bowls, toast with toppings and more. Well executed and best we had in Mirissa. Good coffee and shakes.
Good vibes ( upstairs too). Good service. Closes at 4:00pm.

Aesthetic vegetarian cafe

Little aesthetic veggie cafe with vegan options and a cute shop! I loved their smoothie bowls, vegan pancakes and chia pudding but they were lacking in savoury vegan options and when I went they were out of plant based milk.

Pros: Some vegan options , Cute shop , Aesthetic

Cons: Not many savoury vegan options

Awesome place!

Amazing smoothie bowls, beautiful atmosphere, and chill vibes! So many options and everything is delicious and has a beautiful appearance. There are frequent power cuts in Sri Lanka so don’t be surprised if it randomly goes out for a couple of hours and they can’t make certain things. Definitely check it out!

by far my favorite place in Mirissa!

shady lane is my go to place to eat & work! I love the toasties with avocado and mushrooms. the coffee is super good too.
the girls (and guys) working there are all so sweet and friendly!
it’s also more affordable than other vegan/vegetarian friendly places in the area. plus the food is always fresh & beautifully prepared.

Pros: super friendly & sweet people working there , super good toasties & coffee, pretty affordable

Great brekkie/brunch spot

Came here for a couple of times whilst staying in Mirissa, the place serves western food so it's a good spot if you need a lil break from local food. Their smashed avo on toast and smoothie bowls are so goooood! As well as coffee.

Yes prices have gone up but considering the huge economic crisis the country has the prices are still very affordable. Smashed avo toast w/ 2 toppings cost 700 rupees and a smoothie bowl was 900. During the scheduled country-wide power cuts (which the place cannot control, obviously) they can only serve iced coffees.

The staff is very kind and lovely.

Pros: Lots of vegan options

Food is more expensive now

The food is really tasty but we were reading the menu from happy cow! And we got the bill and we’re shocked cause every food got more expensive! A lot more! Also the staff let me stand in line one day earlier and told me after 30 minutes that they can’t prepare food because of the power cut! Instead of telling me directly while standing in line! Today she told me that they do not have coffee but after K got my other drink I saw them bringing Iced coffee to other people! So, Food is good but everything else I don’t know. Also always ask for the vegan version when ordering bowls etc.

Pros: Good food

Кафе в балийском стиле

Мы взяли тост с веган топпингами и буррито боул. Тост классный, боул мог бы быть лучше, если добавить соусы. Кофе на кокосовом молоке отличный.
На втором этаже есть мини-магазин с одеждой и zero waste товарами. В следующий раз попробую смузи боул.

Love the food, yoga for dogs, refillable water, and the smoothies

We visited a few times during our stay in Mirissa and absolutely loved this place. We came for lunch and stayed for a few hours. The vegan options were plentiful and various. We enjoyed the banana flower burger (which is an incredible vegan burger, perhaps the best I have ever had) and the burrito bowl. Both were delicious and are highly recommended. We also enjoyed the fresh smoothies. The space is comfortable, with multiple seating options and a chilled out upstairs area. Later during our stay we participated in the yoga classes (1,000 rupees per person) where all funds are donated to WeCare, a charity helping the street dogs of Sri Lanka. You can also explore their shop upstairs for more items to purchase in support of the street dogs. Lastly, they have free water refill, so you can bring your own reusable water bottle and refill it free of charge (which seems rare for this area) instead of using plastic!

Pros: Many tasty vegan options, Yoga for street dogs , Refillable filtered water

Love it

Love the type of food they have, refreshing smoothie bowls for this mega hot weather and aloe hot food. Can’t give it 5 stars cause it’s not 100% vegan but most things can be made vegan.

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Great location , Tasty

Cons: More of the pricy side , Use honey

Beautiful toast

They were more than happy to swap garlic butter for coconut on the mushrooms for the avo toast. Smoothie was also icy cold and delish!

Pros: Big serving, Good service , Cute decor

Favourite Coffee in Mirissa

The smoothie bowls were great but it was the Blended Iced Latte which kept us coming back. Almost a dessert but perfect for the hot weather.

Pros: Amazing coffee, Good smoothie bowls

Cons: Service a little slow
