Decent menu

This place has quite a large menu, some of which could be seen as healthy options. The food was good but just felt something was missing! The staff were really friendly and the premesis was big so it is a good place to visit.

Pros: Loads of options, Lots of seating

It was okay

The food was okay, prices etc decent and great that they now have an all plant based menu. It was a shame as the place was so quiet when we were in, we tried a few different bits to share and my favourite was the pizza.

Pros: All vegan menu, Nice pizza , Great banana milkshake made with soy milk

Cons: The atmosphere was a bit dull, Cheesecake wasn't very nice

100% vegan and homemade

Very nice place with lots of seating area, indoors and outdoors. A bit difficult to find, which is a shame because all the vegan/vegetarian spots need maximum exposure. This place is 100% vegan since last year. We started with a homemade milkshake and no-nuggets chicken and bread basket. Main course was a pizza and francesinha. I don’t know what to tell you, but it was extremely tasteful. The no-nuggets tasted like actual nuggets and the francesinha, oh man what a treat. Bread, ‘steak’, ‘ham’ ‘cheese’ ‘sausages’ with fries in a spicy pumpkin soup in 1 dish (see picture). We ended with snickers pie and strawberry cheesecake, homemade of course. For me this was the best restaurant in Albufeira. Not only because everything is vegan, it was also homemade, the service was great, the prices were good and the options were excellent. Please look it up and give it a try and tell your friends, even your non-vegan friends. 10/10.

Pros: 100% vegan. Too many options, The service. Even the chef asked if we liked it

Cons: The area. A bit difficult to find, a shame really

So pleased to have found this place 🌱

We decided to visit as it was my birthday and the reviews and photos we had seen looked lovely.
We arrived later in the evening but nothing was too much. The server (so sorry I can't remember your name) was very friendly.
The chef came through to ask how we found the pasta, which I thought was great that he wanted the feedback!
We struggled to choose. But settled on the pizza and no chicken pasta. Both were beautiful presented ❤️
We also had milkshakes and these were delicious.

If we ever visit the area again we wouldn't hesitate to visit again
Thankyou so much!

Pros: Absolutely amazed by the amount of choice!, Very friendly and helpful service, Food was delicious!

I feel like it could be better

Went to get takeaway, asked for the wrap with grilled vegetables and hummus, and honestly it was the poorest wrap I ever eaten. Like, grilled vegetables and hummus are barely there, seems like a huge wrap with really good taste indeed, but you pick it up and 90% is lettuce and a tomato. So underwhelming 🥲
2 stars for the presentation and chips

Pros: Vegan mayo, Presentation, Service

Cons: Price/quantity/quality relation

Lovely meze, burgers and staff

We loved our lunch. The meze plate was delicious, fresh and extremely tasty with fresh bread in the side. The burgers came with yummy sweet potato crisps.

Pros: Mostly vegan , Lovely staff, No fake meat, mostly fresh

Hier fehlt leider etwas die Würze!

Personal sehr nett, Preise sind nicht billig.

Chicken Nuggets waren lecker aber die sweet potato fries können nicht gerade punkten.

Tempeh Burger war etwas geschmacklos und wieder diese sweet potato fries. leider gibt es keine normalen😒

so yum

i went here once for lunch and dessert and once just for their desserts. their banana cake and citrus cake were to die for, and the quinoa salad was amazing as well. the dish of the day (an asian tofu rice bowl) was less good, but either way i enjoyed coming here a lot. the owner is really nice as well, and i have yet to try their dinner menu. the menu is all vegan and really broad, so there is no shortage of options!

update: went back for another slice of cake and i cant recommend this place enough, even if just for their desserts!

All vegan, beautiful place and nice staff. Sausage was bit weird, cos you couldn't eat it like sausage. But tastes were ok.

Wonderful tuna mayo

The starter with the bread and 3 dips was delicious! The tuna mayo dip we both loved. I enjoyed the tempeh burger, my partner - not so much. Saying that he isn't a vegan himself and is wanted a more meaty taste to the burger. The hot sauce is hot, which is right up my alley - but if you're someone who likes your spicy sauce mild it will be far too hot for you.

Pros: Yummy food , Reasonably priced

Cons: Server was standoffish , Wasn't a fan of the 'chips'

I don't know if the poster means a vegan tuna substitute but I want to let people know that they don't serve fish or any other animal products.

Of course I meant a tuna substitute - it's a vegan restaurant?

Recomendo muito

Restaurante vegano com um agradável ambiente, staff 5* e comida a repetir. Tudo muito saboroso com prato do dia, pratos de almoço e jantar diferentes. Vamos voltar sem sombra de dúvida para o jantar. O espaço é amplo com serviço de mesa atencioso. Muito obrigada por este almoço magnífico e nada caro.

Pros: 2 menus para almoço e jantar

Best food in Algarve

Plenty of choices and all of them are delicious. We were staying in Albufeira for only a few days, but everyday we had a dinner in Veggie Cafe. Prices are affordable, portions are big and service is perfect 👌

A 1ª opção de restaurantes com opções veganas em Albufeira

Todo ótimo no geral! Sítio bem agradável para se estar na esplanada. Pedimos os no chicken Nuggets que são feitos de soja e vinham acompanhados com maionese e molho chili. A Bifana de seitan estava muito boa, mas com pouco sabor. A carbonara estava ótima, continha cogumelos e ervilhas, molho de cajus.
Irei voltar certamente!

Pros: Muitas opções veganas.

All vegan & quick, but not amazing taste

See pros and cons in the bottom, that’s basically it.
Oh and the furniture is not very nice, more like a canteen. Anyways I would go there again to support as there are not many vegan options around!

Pros: Quick service , All vegan , Very nice fresh tasting juices

Cons: Mainly fast food (burritos, burgers, chips), Taste was not bad but just nothing special , Nothing creative, special, new

Fully vegan, lovely food, great service

Had the pizza on the recommendation from the staff, it was delicious! Choices of different strengths of chilli oil/sauce to make it spicy if wanted. Also tried the pastry dessert, a famous Portuguese sweet, it was lemon and lovely. Great service!
