Cute Restaurant.

The dishes are very delicious. The restaurant has an interesting design. They have an interesting version of sticky mango.

Very good

Food was good and the prices fair. Service was slow but the owner was alone in the kitchen. Two of the homestay guests helped with the service which was funny. The owner was very friendly and talkative.

Nice cafe food and atmosphere

Open-air café (fans provided) at a hostel. I had a very good soup, and my friend enjoyed the Burmese tea-leaf salad.

Pros: all vegan

Delicious food, friendly and welcoming staff

By far the best vegan food we’ve had in all of Thailand. Friendly welcoming staff, peaceful environment, and delicious food!

Hidden gem

I have taken cooking classes in Thailand, tried a lot of curries, but the pumpkin red curry was to die for. Pumpkin is always a nice add, as it melts into the coconut creaminess, but the subtle flavor of fried garlic-- oh! Amazing.

*edit it's shallot, not garlic. Has a very savory, garlicy flavor :-P

I also had a wheatgrass water and iced coconut green tea. So refreshing.
If you're vegan and visit Chang Mai, pay them a visit, and consider renting a room. It has a peaceful energy and you'll feel at home.

Prices are low, so you can stretch your bhat and not miss out on value.

There is an interesting array of trinkets and everyday use items on offer as well.

Small place but incredible food

I had a yellow curry and it was without doubt the best curry I have had in my travels so far. They will cook it too your spice level. It was so creamy and flavourful. The staff are lovely too.

Pros: Cute atmosphere , Amazing food, Great price

Delicious food

We tried the Khao Soi and pineapple fried rice. They were both delicious! This place has great vibes too, a little Chiang Mai oasis.

Merveilleux restaurant

Toutes les options sont véganes et plus variées qu'ailleurs (kimchi, salade de concombres), les prix sont plus que raisonnables et l'homme qui nous a servi est trop sweet

Pros: Pas cher, Super service

Cons: RIEN

Never eaten so bad in Thailand before :(

I don't know what went wrong but the sti fried mushroom dish I got was without salt and taste whatsoever. And so dry :(
Is this a top rated restaurant in CM?

Local cuisine

Delicious meals. I enjoyed my kombucha and mushroom dish. The pad see ew was alright; a bit dry though. Would love a sauce or some sesame oil on the side. Didn’t care much for the banana cocoa smoothie. Not a lot of options without chili.

Cons: Most items rely on chili bases

I got the mushroom dish as well, and it did not taste like anything, unfortunately. Super dry :(

Ghosted

I took their ghost challenge and it was a wonderful dish, all be it very spicy. The menu was rich with vegan choices and. the proprietor was very kind and helpful. The drinks/food was incredibly good value for money. The location was quiet, outside and protected from the sun.

Pros: All vegan menu, Super food, Great staff

Cheap rustic Thai food.

The place has a small menu of rustic Thai food. My favourite dish was the special, spicy Ghost noodles. There was a challenge that if you ate it without tearing up you got some free ice cream. We won the challenge easily but had to pass on the ice cream. The Ghost noodles was very spicy and I loved it, it had a fantastic flavour and unfortunately it was the only dish not coated in sugar. The cucumber salad, another noodle dish and the Khao Soi were terribly sweet and I had to ask for a bottle of soy sauce to be able to eat it. The second best dish was the Khao Soi and the rest we couldn’t finish. If you love super sweet Thai food you'll love this, if you want savory food with a lovely non sweet flavor and don't mind super spicy try the Ghost noodles. If I come back it will be purely for the Ghost noodles.

Pros: Cheap, Delicious Ghost Noodles, Cute little place

Cons: Limited menu, Savory food too sweet

Great food

We got one of the specials- tofu & ginger and a noodle soup. Food took a little time but not too long and the food was tasty. The juices aren’t that good, I’m guessing because they use ice rather than a milk which waters it down somewhat. Enjoyed the games available (crimes against humanity) which helped to pass the time when waiting. #Veganuary

It must have been the fruit shake as you say. Good to know there’s an option to add vegan milks and yoghurts. I’d recommend that they come as standard. Overall we enjoyed the restaurant

Just short

The place is very cozy and the owner and volunteer are very friendly
We ordered the glass Noodle Pad thai, beansprout and ginger with tofu, and a coconut cocoa milk drink.
Both dishes and the drink just didn't get all the way. The Pad thai especially needed more seasoning and didnt taste of much.
Food between 60-80 baht

Pros: Atmosphere, Price

Cons: Lack of flavour

a must-eat in chiang rai - laughed heartily

The visit here is more than worth it! Great atmosphere and mood. Definitely one of the best meals around here! Didn't even manage to take a picture!
Humor of the boss absolute top - exactly my taste!
& PS Chairs are big enough and the plants are in great condition too! Seat neighbors also quite ok ;).
Good evening! #Veganuary

Pros: absolutely perfect in taste, super friendly service, more than fair prices

Great Atmosphere, Food & Prices

Tucked in a quiet neighborhood inside Chiang Mai gates/moat. Love everything about place, atmosphere is adorable, food is fabulous and prices are very reasonable. Definitely one of the best vegan spots in CM. Owner is the chef and she is super nice/very funny. This place is a treasure.

OK vegan food

Food was a little disappointing tbh (even though I was starving). Staff were friendly enough, but the atmosphere was a little tense somehow

Good price, good food, very slow service...

Nice place where apart from food you can buy homemade cosmetics and weed. The food was good, not amazing but well priced. Tea-leaf salad was very tasty, the smoothies would be better if they were made with coconut milk instead of ice. Unfortunately on our second visit we waited over 40-50 minutes for our order and gave up. The food just wasn't coming at all despite us asking the waitress a few times and kitchen staff. Not sure if it's because weed is openly sold at the cafe and the staff is under the influence? It was very disappointing and we will not visit again.

Pros: Good vegan menu, Handmade cosmetics shop

Cons: Smoothies icy not creamy, Very slow service , Staff doesn't care how long it takes to serve food

The owner is the chef and it's tiny one person kitchen so if there is a large group or heaps of tables things can slow down a bit. She recently hired more staff to help speed things up.
