One of my favourite places in town

Really nice food and a little supermarket selling kefir water, kimchi, dried goods, and more. The banana bread is really nice and their food is a little different from other places around. I was surprised to find the place hidden on a little back street, but once you find it, it's a great little spot

Cons: Not 100% vegan

Lots of options

The place didn’t have an amazing vibe or anything but the food was all freshly made and really tasty. I got the siomai and bulgogi and they were both very tasty, especially the siomai sauce. The Calamansi juice was bottled and not the best I have had.

Just ok

This food, although not bad, was pretty ordinary tasting like I could have made it myself.

Great!

This place was really good, all the food looked very tasty although we weren’t super hungry so we only took two green smoothies and they were delicious.
If you’re a health freak, this is your place! They’ve got everything from Spirulina to turmeric powders and other healthy snacks.
Price was very reasonable and service was quick and efficient.
Would definitely be back!
(They also have a wellness ‘clinic’, where they do certain treatments if this is your kind of vibe).

Vegan Filipino dishes and smoothies

Located in a wellness shop the place offers cooked vegan dishes with rice, smoothies, and some fruit bowl etc. Even some salads. Price very affordable and friendly staff. Food ok nothing special. The smoothie I had was very good!

Pros: Many options to choose from, Friendly staff, Clean venue w ac and shop next door

Cons: Would prefer less oil in my fried veggies. , Healthier to steam veggies

Fresh local food

We stopped in here between a Flight and a ferry for a well needed bite to eat. There was a large range of local style dishes mostly vegan which was great! Some of the dishes we ordered were not the same as previous posts suggested so I imagine the available ingredients change. Overall we ordered 4 dishes and that was enough for the two of us!

Pros: Local cuisine, Plant protein, Free water refills

Cons: Some dishes slightly hard to tell apart

Lots of local veganized options

A lot of good local veganized options. They told me everything on the menu is vegan. The food was delicious, but a little expensive for the portion size. Also not really a great atmosphere. Would recommend it tho!

Freshly made food

Although we needed to wait over 40 minutes the food was really freshly prepared, packed with veggies and very delicious. That’s the only health conscious vegan place in Cebu. They also serve mock meats but you can also have a salad and veggie and tofu dishes. We had the bihun (very nice), the salad bowl (the salad was good the creamy sauce was not my fav) , chickpea toasts (very yummy), vegan rice nuggets (very nice and tasty but strange combo to serve it with steamed rice). For drinks we had a calamansi juice (good) a cucumber juice (super sweet and made from a strange powder kinda thing) and I wanted to had a cappuccino with soy milk but instead I could a strange very hot drink which was not probably some barley coffee which they are selling in the shop.
All in all it was great to finally find a vegan/vegetarian place and food was fresh and delicious.

Pros: Fresh and delicious food, Salads and veggies available

Cons: Coffee is not their strong suit, Cucumber juice was super sweet

Mind blown

I found the flavor of the Classic Bihon to be so amazing. I really savoured every bite. 🥹🤤 The Bilo bilo was not good though. I would skip that.

*Make sure you put in Wellnessland Urban Center and not Wellnessland Vegan Cafe and Health Food Store, as the google maps locations are different.

*The menu does have an item at the bottom with dairy cheese and the shop sells bread with milk in it. Everything else is vegan, but due to these items, this place is vegetarian.

Pros: Mostly vegan, Delicious meals, Biodegradable plastic bag

Cons: Offers dairy, Dessert needs improvement , Dessert came with a plastic spoon

Aaawwwwrrrgghhh, dead baby bovine milk? At a "vegan" place is so frustrating! Hope you reported them.

I know. It’s really strange too because I asked if everything on the menu was vegan and they said yes! I was so excited and enjoyed so much my meal. Only in the end when I scrolled down to the snacks and dessert, I found the cheese item and was like “oooo! Do you make vegan cheese?! 🤩”. Well, they were honest about it but uhhh- I felt quite disappointed in that moment. 😮‍💨

The last place this happened to me, I walked out without paying my whole tab. Told them I was sorry, but I didn't have enough money. The lady asked me how I could eat without money to pay. I said, I'm lying, just like you did, when you told me this was a 100% vegan business. Said, I don't support animal abuse food businesses, and I'm leaving now, having given you what you gave me. A dishonest experience in exchange for the bad taste in my mouth. Boycotting anti-vegan restaurant businesses is so important. Not one of them deserves one single penny from a vegan. They all need to close, and urgently.

Are you going to go to Wonderland in Siquijor?? Hopefully they're real vegans there, place looks--- wonderful. haha

Oh wow. That’s one way to make a statement. I’m not going there this time. I’m hoping to do some more diving and found that Moalboal has lots of vegan options! It’s like the Dahab of Cebu. I was going to stay just one night, but I think I’ll stay to feed myself well.

Great nutritious food

They have a lot of choices on the menu and other little items to buy, like dehydrated banana, nuts, natural deodorant etc... I’d recommend the wellness sisig, it was really delicious. It is fairly priced for what it is too. Came here 4 times as I loved the food. Some items were lacking a bit of flavour, but overall a great experience!

Staff not fully educated on dishes.

Overall a good environment. This review is based on the the “bull burger” I specifically ask about and what comes in it and what it’s made from. What I received and what she said and on the menu was completely different.

I ask if there was sauce she said no and I got sauce. Which seemed to be processed and out of the bottle. Also, bread was def processed not fresh.

Would come again but would stick to coconut water and fruits.

great food, so many choices!

boyfriend and i shared a nutty burger and the combo meal 3 - which was a lot of food for the two of us!
the burger wasn’t very nutty but the sauce and patty were great, i also really liked the bun!
the combo meal is amazing value for money! you get to try so many different things - which were all very good, the siomai a little dry, the buko pie was absolutely fantastic & moist!

service wasn’t over-engaging but really nice & pretty quick.

the desserts sounded & looked amazing but we were too full! i’d love to come back for them some other time😄

Pros: sooo many options, amazing value for money, great taste!

Cons: some drinks weren’t available

Pros: Soooo many options, Friendly staff, Sell plant based products and premium ice cream

Cons: A little difficult to find

Good raw food but never order the siomai and pizza..

I just had the most terrible siomai and pizza in my life...we went here last time, the salad and curry was really good. We look forward to more good food tonight but ended up very disappointed...staff were all very friendly and nice. I hope people don’t think siomai really taste like that. It’s not!!!!!!!

extensive menu

I ate there a few times already. Their menu is extensive with nice pictures. The dishes are mostly Asian: Chinese, Japanese, Korean etc. So some appealed to me more than others. This is my second favorite place in Cebu, after Little India.

Pros: good value

Refreshing spot in Cebu

So many options! The food isn’t for everyone, mostly raw, but it really made us feel healthy. A place like this is hard to come by in SE Asia!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Vegan ice cream!, Plenty of condiments

Does not offer what it says.

They promote many programs and cooking classes but does not offer same. Many dishes that they promote they ran out of ingredients and don’t offer like the vegan pizza. Cafe was really hot, no fans, no wifi, and staff wasn’t that friendly. Seems like a very boring place

Cons: Promotes vegan cooking class but doesn’t offer, They ran out of dough to offer the vegan pizza, Staff is not so friendly and wifi doesn’t work

Yay but nah

The store and restaurant itself looks cool and really takes in the “vegan-vibe”.
The food in the other hand didn’t taste of anything and was just pretty disappointing. I think we maybe ordered the wrong dishes, Because what we got was not worth the money.
Feel like going back just to give it a second chance, because I think it could be REALLY nice.
It just wasn’t for us.

We got the ramen, siopao, cauliflower rice and the raw vegan sushi.

Pros: All vegan , Has a raw vegan menu as well , Has a store to it

Cons: Food didn’t taste of anything

Food was delicious

The food was delicious. I had the oat porridge, choco ice cream and had a burger and samosa to take away. I was very impressed with the food, especially after reading the other reviews. I will definitely eat there again if I’m ever in Cebu again.

Pros: All vegan, Also sells products you can buy, Has vegan ice cream

WANT to love this place but can't.

I have eaten here numerous times as I have stayed at the adjoining hotel numerous times & the IDEA of the place is amazing & exactly what a vegan could want in Cebu - or anywhere really!... But. Everything I've tried (except the ice creams) - and the list is extensive - is so bland it's borderline tasteless served to you by absentee staff whom you usually have to approach to place an order & then remind them when they forget about it. I constantly keep trying new menu items (& I suppose still will!) but I'm consistently disappointed every meal.

Pros: The ice cream & very reasonably priced supplies, (soaps, toothpaste, etc)

Cons: Bland food, absent staff, No real coffee!
