An absolute must - Edit
We finally made it out here on our last day, for some lunch. We loved the vibe of the place, and the owner and her son were very warm and welcoming. We loved it so much we found them on Uber Eats (search 'veggiemomi') and had dinner whilst we packed!!
Read moreThe owner was telling us about the chocolate truffles she wanted to make today and now we get to try them as part of our dessert box.
Cannot recommend this place enough. Worth the uphill trek.

Great vegan food - Edit
A lot of different type of dishes available on the menu. Both sweet and savory. I can really recommend the home made burgers and coconut cake. Owner was also very nice and friendly, the place had a great atmosphere because of that. She will answer any questions you have and tell you anything you want to know about the food.

Lovely owner and pretty alright food - Edit
The owner was lovely and welcoming and chatted a lot with us about all sorts. We went for the menu of the day and the food was ok, some bits were very nice and some were just ok. I feel a bit bad saying as she was so nice but thats an honest review. Having said that because some of it was so nice and there was only her running the wjole place i have no doubt she is a very good cook but maybe the menu is just too big to ensure everything is amazing!

Best homemade cheese ever - Edit
If you fancy delicious toasts with vegan cheese, this is the Café to be. In this small café the vegan cheese is made from scratch and really tastes unbelievably good! There is a menu with lots of delicious vegan dishes and there is a dish of the day that is different every day and freshly prepared. If you like to drink milk in your coffee, you can choose between different types of plants milk.
Read moreWe’d always come back for great food and a good talk, as the owner is an animal rights activist herself and has always something to tell. :)

Often difficult to find vegan food whilst away, the happy cow app is a lifesaver. We found Veggie Mini through the app when we visited Albufeira and it is a gem! Highly recommend the pizza and the Simples wrap!

Very cute place with great food, cooked wholeheartedly by very sympathetic lady! - Edit
We had the Menu of the Day which included a starter dish with salad, chips and some fried vegan meatballs. Then the pie of the day which was a ground meat pie with peas and sausage on top. As a dessert she served a gluten-free raw coconut pie with chocolate on top and a coffee to go with it. Thank you very much!!! Big recommendation to everybody and the owner gives great tips and advice as well!

Wonderful - Edit
Yesterday we visited Veggie Momi; one of the only vegan places (and possibly the only fully vegan restaurant) in Albufeira. We were so glad we did. It was all shades of brilliant! The food, the vibe & the service was wonderful and we were made to feel very welcome and relaxed. The setting is very unpretentious and set back from the main strip, which we loved.
Read moreEverything was delicious, fresh and cooked with care; the particular highlight was the coconut and chocolate cake! Wow!
Monica is a wonderful and inspiring person who deserves much more appreciation & local support.
Pros: Warm welcome, Delicious food, Unpretentious

Cons: Some meals pretty expensive
