Good quality and spirit - Edit
Although it is expensive and the portions not that big you can taste the good quality. A lot of probiotic food.

Proper restaurant! - Edit
You can see that this place is really focused on giving you a nice experience. There is comfortable lounging and sitting, nice music, and beautiful presentation of the food. I actually anticipated the prices to be somewhat higher. But 100 baht for a Khao Soi and Pad Ki Mao was perfect. The food was very tasty, especially enjoyed the Khao Soi but we also really enjoyed Tikki Massala with vegan roti. A nice tip for dessert is to order a plain roti which you can decorate with some sugar, very tasty!

Incredible - Edit
Some of the best food we’ve ever eaten! We were blown away by both dishes we tried - the Burmese tea salad and the large Shambhala bowl. The vegan brownies were also out if this world. Quality, delicious vegan food.

Great khao soi - Edit
I had the khao soi (it's vegan) and found it really tasty. The portion was just right for me and the presentation was very curated. Prices are average-low for the island.

5 Sterne (nicht möglich, weil in App nicht als vegetarisch gelistet) - Edit
Komplett vegetarisch, großartiges, abwechslungsreiches Essen, tolle Atmosphäre, super freundliche Inhaberin und Mitarbeiter. Wir haben fast alle Mahlzeiten dort eingenommen. Fast alle Gerichte in vegan möglich, viele sind es ohnehin. Unbedingte Empfehlung, besonders, wenn dir auch Bio, nachhaltiges und gesundes Essen wichtig sind. Gleichzeitig überragend lecker, bestes Essen in Thailand bisher.

Super vegan place - Edit
Delicious vegan food, great café and friendly staff. We ate at Shambala several times, nice to sit down, great refill/eco store is part of it. The staff are very friendly and the owner knows exactly what vegan is all about. The food is delicious, we often had the Shambala salad for lunch and the Khao Soi is highly recommended. Last but not least, the best vegan desserts on the island. Vegan brownie and chocolate fudge.

One of my favourite restaurants in Thailand! - Edit
Shambhala is now 100% vegan-vegetarian. I absolutely love this place and its food! Salads, bowls, burgers... and their homemade sauce is incredible. The coffee is perfect too, the barista is great. All the team and the owner are lovely and the atmosphere is super relaxing. My mother is not a vegan/vegetarian but she wanted to go back there every day we were on the island. As a matter of fact, we even took away food on our last night there to eat the day next when we had to travel - we got addicted to the amazing flavours of Shambhala💗

Unbelievable delicious - Edit
I went for the vegan burger and it was seriously a nutritional enlightenment. Also the Chai with some vegan chocolate. The owner is super sweet and friendly. I love the whole environment there. Definitely a must stop at Koh Phayam

Best restaurant experience - Edit
Wonderful place! We ate at Shamabala almost every day and could experience the passion and creativity in preparing the food. The owner of the restaurant was very caring. She was easy to talk to. In addition, she tried to teach us about her cuisine and we also got food to try. Have fun!

5 Stars for the most delicious vegan food - Edit
My husband and I came here almost every day during our 10 day stay on Koh Phayam.
Read moreThe food is fresh, delicious and creative. The owner is vegetarian for 30 years and knows exactly what vegan means. 90% of her menu is vegan-friendly.
Our favorites:
- Shambala bowl (with the best vegan chicken/ fried protein)
- Stir-fried pumpkin with tofu and basil (taste like scrambled eggs)
- Kao Soi (noodles with yellow curry)
For breakfast:
- Granola with fruits and homemade coconut kefir.
- Panini with cashew cheese and Shambala sauce.
And a bit of topic but: try her probiotic body wash. Totally blew my mind. Made by locals and gives you the smoothest skin.
Pros: Owner who speaks English and knows about vegans., Creative kitchen , Fresh and clean (no tummy problems)

A true gem - Edit
I almost missed the restaurant because it is only referred as the shop.
Read moreThey serve meat in the restaurant part, but the owner is vegetarian herself and knows well about vegan.
I had the Khao Soi which I really loved.
I took a few photos from the menu on the surf board.
A pity I found this gem so late!

We had a great time here - the owner is very friendly and talkative. She opened up the island community to us and we quickly get in contact with other people from the island.
