Casero y variado

Es un vegetariano con muchas opciones veganas, incluso las vegetarianas en ocasiones se pueden veganizar.
Cenamos 3 veces allí. El personal muy atento.

Super menu!

The menu is huge with many vegan options! Delicious smoothies, juices, and you must try the cashew butter toast. We have eaten here twice so far and we were also able to have them refill our water bottles for a minimal charge instead of buying more plastic. Very nice folks.

A MUST DO

We went there literally everyday!! The menu is huge, they have so many options for breakfast lunch and dinner
Prices are a bit more expensive than other places but I think it totally worth it due to the product they use

Foor is good, I liked their philosophy

But be aware when you order that they consider honey as vegan food!

Enjoy!

Lot's of choice

The food we ordered was excellent, e.g. the faux duck sandwich, wrap with japanese sauce and sesame.
A very nice place in the middle of the island.

Pros: Lot's of choice, Good food you don't find everywhere, Speak English

So many options

There's so many options, there might be too many!! Staff don't speak fantastic English so explaining what swaps and add ons you want can be a chore. But the menu is extensive. Maybe a little more expensive than other places but it's nice to get some seeds, nuts, goji berries etc in.
Go and get something you can't find somewhere else. I.e. order a porridge or smoothie bowl not a standard curry you can get anywhere

Not impressed

I was really looking forward to eat here. We had lamb and eggplant with mint and ginger-orange-tofu. Both lacked flavours which I find weird because usually thai food is very well seasoned. Also tried their ice cream that were ok but nothing special.

Pros: Extensive menu

Cons: Lacks flavour

Hands down!

One of the best vegan options in Ko Payam. Went several times and tried different meals. Fake “meats” like “fish” and “duck” are a must try. Menu has a huge and diverse options so you’ll never get bored :)

Yammi food

Me and my boyfriend went there two times. Once for Dinner and the other time for breakfast. Many dishes are vegan and almost all dishes can be ordered as vegan option. I recommanded the lamb wrap, which was very very good.

Pros: Many vegan dishes

Большой ассортимент

Слишком адаптированно по белых людей, не острое и не такое вкусное как в хороших вегфрендли заведениях. Раббит например в 300 метрах от них.

Something for everyone here!

This place is an absolute must if you are staying on Koh Phayam - there is a reason its rated top restuarant on the island on TripAdvisor! The menu is vast, close to 100 different options and it's clearly marked what is/can be made vegan. They offer mock meats as well - lamb, chicken, duck and fish. My partner and I have visited this restaurant 5 times in the week we have been here each time ordering something new and have never been disappointed. Can not recommend this place highly enough - the owners are extremely friendly and welcoming and the staff are as well!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, delicious food, healthy.

PARADISE!

After months of traveling in Asia, I was delighted to find this spot. Everything is clearly labelled on the menu, as vegan/non vegan /spicy / ... They offer soymilk / almondmilk / coconutmilk and -yoghurt, healthy juices, shakes and smoothies...literally all you can hope for.

I ate here over 10 times as it was my breakfast/lunch and dinner spot and the food was insanely good and always made my days! Try the creamy garlic pasta, the chocolatedrinks, the Banoffi-porridge, the "fish"-burger...

Service was super accomodating and fast, as they have multible people working in the kitchen. You can refill water for a couple of Baht and you can rent books here, too. Incredible!

Pros: AMAZING food, clearly labelled if vegan or can be made vegan, super cozy, friendly staff

Amazing Place

Just found it today - yet, I guess they got themselves a new regular: the choice of vegan options is extensive, from mediterranean to arabian, indian and, certainly, Thai cuisine at top quality each. The hummus competes with arabian/israeli standards, and ordering „Thai Style“ spiced proves you‘re being taken serious. They have TWO menues, Food and Drinks seperately, and the choice of teas and shakes is just amazing, additionally to the already great general choice in this country. Above all, they are delivering a truthful ethical vibe, run a library and offer nutritional education.

Pros: Extensive vegan options, Attentive staff

Best place in Koh Phayam

After trying a few other places I ended up back here every day. Massive vegan selection and a good ethical place. No straws and water refills available. Great curries and wraps, good vegan chicken and delicious brownies. If it went 100% vegan it would be perfect.

Pros: Lots of choices, Water refills, Friendly

An everyday spot!

This place is great for vegans! Just ask the owners and they will guide you through the menu. We went here almost everyday for a week, i Highly recomend the breakfast, suck as the iced chai teas, chai latte, shakes, toast with banana jam, vegan sausage, tomato jam and coconut soup! i would give five but i can't. they do have some shrimp paste in their curry but are working an making their own next season.

Pros: iced chai tea, staff, menu

Cons: shrimp paste

We are fans

This place is a warm hearted place where you wanna come back again and again. The menu is HUGE so you wanna come back just to try it out again. It was 99% vegetarian while we was there. No meat options on the menu. And they use mushromm sauce instead of fish sauce. (Ask to be 100% sure)
We stayed on the island for about two weeks and we was there almost every day for food or just a cool-down shake.
It was easily for me as a vegan to choose. And you can easily ask for non-sugar options as well.
Delish breakfast options. And while you are waiting for your treats you can pick up a book from their tiny little bibliothéque
All GMO free and filled with love!!
