Highly recommend - Good food and great service

Cafe Vida is a lovely little cafe close to the Witches Market, located behind the English pub. The set lunch menu is 38bs from noon to 4 pm, although this is flexible depending on when the food runs out.

We ate here twice while in La Paz as the food is fresh and delicious. You help yourself to soup, bread, hummus, and juice, while the main meal is prepared and provided to you at the table. The menu changes depending on the produce they buy from the market.

The food is so good that we forgot to take pictures. Therefore, the pictures provided are of the meal set-up and offerings.

Pros: Food, Service, Value for money

Good quality coffee


Iced Latte was good with a strong taste of good coffee. Prices were a bit higher but acceptable for the quality delivered.

Delicious but low value for money

Friendly staff, food was delicious, however the portions were quite small for how much I paid.

If I were to go back I would get the menu del dia to get the best value.

Perfecto para un coffee break

La chica me ha dicho que toda la carta es vegana. Yo me he decantado por un latte de soja y una rebanada de banana bread y todo estaba buenísimo. Un local agradable.

Super tasty vegan lunch

Got the lunch menu for 35 bobs, which includes really nice hummus, bread, soup, juice and a main dish (for me was a lentil bolognese). Went the one day just to have a tea and something sweet and smelt the lunch so decided to go back the next day. Some of the best food I’ve had so far in Bolivia, so flavourful and fresh. I’ve not really had nice hummus anywhere in Latin America in my travels but this place the hummus was great. Also had a chocolate chip cookie which was nice too. All of their food and sweet treats are vegan I think. Maybe a little more expensive than some other lunch menus but worth it as it’s not so much more.

Pros: Vegan lunch, Sweet treats, Kind staff

Good vegan lunch

For 35 bols per person, we enjoyed juice, soup, bread and hummus, and a main dish.

We loved that the juice, soup, hummus, and bread was self-serving! Our main menu of the day was a chickpea curry with rice.

It was a solid lunch menu! I think if there was a little desert or if the main dish had more flare, then the whole lunch menu would be more elevated.

But all in all a solid vegan place!

Go to Vegan spot in La Paz

This is the kind of place I’m excited to eat at again! They offer a menu of the day which was delicious and so filling. For me it was bread and hummuses, soup, and soft tacos with soy meat and veggies. I also had a peanut butter shake which was delicious. I ate it before I could take a photo - so good.
I have to edit this review now I’ve eaten here twice more 😅 smoothie bowls are delicious! I had the lunch deal again and this time there was a kind of tomato stir fry for the main meal. I preferred the pumpkin soup today over the veggie soup but also preferred the soft tacos of the other day. The staff are friendly and there’s great WiFi too. Again I barely remembered to take photos, the food was good and I ate it quickly.
A quick note is that, if you order a coffee, you should specify that you want soy or coconut milk because I think they do have cow milk there too.

Pros: Cheap menu del día , Affordable , Cute cafe vibes

Cons: Specify the milk you want in coffee (just incase)

Good quality cheap healthy food

I had the vegan set lunch for 35 bolivianos. I started with some bread and two delicious types of hummus and a spicy salsa. The soup was very full of veggies, a tad bland but still nice. The juice was a freshly squeezed orange and ginger juice. Main was a lentil stew with a yummy cashew cream. I also had the carrot cake for 15 bolivianos which was very moist and yummy. Will definitely be going back again.

Hidden gem

Tucked down a side street behind an “irish pub” this cute little cafe was a cool find. They have a daily lunch menu and a la carte menu with many drinks and a few cakes to offer. I had the lunch menu of soups and hummus with bread and a flax seed juice. I also tried their chocolate cake which was lovely

Pros: Great food , Friendly staff, Cute atmosphere
