A great find!!!

What a great find . We were staying at the Sheraton and discovered this restaurant from this app. Went there for dinner and loved the vegan options ... we went back the next day for lunch.

Lovely cafe serving delicious treats

I came here with a friend for an afternoon coffee and cake. The latte with oat milk was a delight and so was the raw "cheese" cake which features spirulina powder and organic grasses / herbs. Also my non-vegan friend loved the cake. Staff was really friendly and there was a very relaxed atmosphere in here. We loved the cafe being inspired by Sri Chimnoy.

Pros: Delicious treats, Almost everything is vegan or can be veganized

Nice staff and tasty food

friendly staff accommodating even the most picky of eaters (the girl at the table next to us was allergic to almost anything). The food was good, we especially liked the vegan cheese cake for desert.

Good vegan options

Lovely cafe with a few vegan options for breakfast and otherwise. I had a ciabatta and it was very tasty. Mini friend enjoyed her omelette too. Friendly service. Recommend!

Joy to find WFPBNO food.

We came to Heart of joy because the pictures online looked fantastic. It didn’t disappoint. Excellent porridge breakfast. Will be back for lunch to try falafel wrap!

Pros: Lots of room, Choices for both vegan and non vegan (egg dishes), Wait staff is multi lingual

Cons: Busy! Make a reservation for sure!

Lovely vegan food

We ate here twice on our 3 day visit. Food is very good. They can accommodate gluten free needs too. We had the lentil soup, 2 different curries on rice, the falafel wrap, and the apple cake. Everything was fresh and very flavorful. Curries can be spicy, ask before ordering. We will be back on our next visit.

Pros: Food is very good, Nice atmosphere, Young, helpful staff

Cons: Bathroom is downstairs in the dark, They close fairly early

Best Breakfast

I loved this cafe so much that I went 3 times on my 4 day trip to Salzburg. The first time, I went with omnivores. They were happy too! Loved the peaceful atmosphere and friendly staff. English menu in back of standard menu. I tried their porridge, breakfast combo (salad, porridge, vegan butter and bread, and vegan ham), and a lunch sandwich with vegan ham. Porridge is loaded with fresh fruit! Highly recommend getting dessert too! I loved their “chocolate muffin”, it is more like a chocolate cupcake. Apple and berry cakes were yummy as well.

Great falafel wrap!

The food here was pretty good! The falafel wrap was great and what you would expect from a vegan falafel wrap. My boyfriend got the mozzarella sandwich (not a vegan option but said it was good). Only thing was that we ordered a juice each and they diluted them with water and then charged us for the tap water? Not sure if this is a thing but we found it weird.

Hat sich gelohnt

Wir essen vegan und waren zum Frühstück und später noch zum Kuchen und Kaffee da. Zum Glück machen die relativ früh auf, im Gegensatz zu vielen anderen Läden. Gute Frühstücksoptionen, leckere Kuchen und gute Auswahl an Getränken. Preislich zwar vor allem von den Getränken her teilweise etwas hoch, und mein (sehr leckerer) Cashew Kuchen war für 4€ echt überschaubar, nur halb so groß wie der Pie von meinem Mann . Aber es schmeckt alles sehr gut und qualitativ hochwertig, und das Personal ist sehr freundlich.

Moderate food

Healthy restaurant with veg options. Not a lot on the menu. On 5 pm the daily menu was sold out. I had a lentil soup what was to salty and a sandwich with vegetarian meat. It was ok.

Beautiful little restaurant in Salzburg

We had a day trip out from Berchtesgaden to Salzburg and decided to try The Heart of Joy while we were there. The staff were incredibly friendly and informative and the food was amazing. Would highly recommend and will return if we visit Salzburg again.

Pros: Amazing food, Great location

Bright venue, tasty food

We had a lovely relaxed lunch at this cafe. I had the special of the day, a vegan version of spaghetti bolognaise with rocket and my friend ordered the smoked tofu ciabatta (but gluten free, so with gluten free bread instead of the ciabatta bread). We shared a cashew and berry gluten free cheese cake and I had an affogato with soy ice cream. The staff were friendly and helpful, the venue is bright with lots of seating inside and outside and there’s more on the menu that I’d like to try.

Nice food, nice staff

When we arrived at this place the restaurant was very crowded, but the staff still did everything to give us a table! They were really nice!
Food was yum, but not totally and the price was okay.

Perfect brunch spot

This is a cosy cafe with a range of simple but tasty vegan options on its menu. It's great for breakfast / brunch as it offers vegan porridge and vegan ham made from seitan - the ham sandwich is great. Also recommend the lentil soup: hearty and delicious. My friend had the falafel wrap and said it was too big for one person!

Pros: Free water, Comfortable atmosphere, Vegan breakfast sets

Thoroughly recommend

Agree with all the compliments as to variety, options and staff. We enjoyed the gourmet breakfast and on other occasions the generous felafel wrap, double sandwiches (in our opinion enough for two) and spinach quiche.

Pros: Outdoor seating, Staff, Good food.

Cons: During heatwave outdoor seating became too hot. , Could do with fans/larger shaded
