The ULTIMATE

The Italian owner was so welcoming, and very proud to tell me that all of the food comes from Italy.
I had the pistachio filled croissant and honestly, I’ve never tasted a croissant like it. I even bought another one to take away with me!
Better yet, before I left the staff gave me a Pinxo de tortilla - I NEVER thought I’d taste this again in my life, least of all so fresh (still warm).
Couldn’t recommend this cafe more, gutted I only found it on my last day in Madrid, but I will certainly be returning.

Cute café, delicious food

Very nice cafe in the Madrid Rio area. The stuff is super nice and friendly and their food is super good. They have coffee and beer as well as sweet and savory treats. My favorite is the pistachio croissant

Merienda muy rica!

El camarero fue muy rápido y amable!
Estaba todo muy rico y bien de precio, aunque los chocolates nos parecieron un pelín caros.
El sitio es pequeño pero tienen también mesas fuera y puedes tomarte una cerveza también

Pros: El sandwich de bacon estaba muy rico, Camarero superamable y rápido, Sitio acogedor

Cons: Música un poco alta, Mesas muy juntas

embarassed I didn’t know it existed earlier

It’s rare for me now to find vegan places in Madrid I haven’t already heard of but I was in for a treat last weekend.

My friend took me here and I was thoroughly impressed! Never seen such a huge range of drinks in my life! Milkshakes, matcha, blue lattes (and several other colours)! It’s been a while since I had a milkshake and before I was vegan they were my favourite. Tried it and loved it! Also had a cheese and ham sandwich which was great!

Finally, impeccable service! The person working there was the nicest person ever and was so friendly, hospitable and keen to show all the variety of drinks to each customer despite being the only staff member in a busy cafe. Loved everything about the place. Beautiful location too.

Pros: Variety of drinks, Beautiful location , Best service ever !!

Cons: Limited seating inside

Nice and peaceful coffee place

We only had a coffee and a filled croissant but both were delicious. The croissant was crunchy in the outside and moist in the inside. The Italian lady is very friendly.
Perfect for a quiet breakfast close to the river.

Todo riquisimo

Pequeña cafetería vegana con dulces y salados muy ricos. La Nortilla es un must, y los dulces increíbles.

El interior es pequeño, así que mejor si no llueve para poder aprovechar la terraza.

Cons: Interior pequeño, depende de la terraza

lovely cafe next to the river

Ahhh fresh apricot croissants and pistachio crème filled croissants are the best! Prices are terrific, and you’re right next to a beautiful walking/running path alongside the river. Staff were so sweet and helpful despite my Spanish not being so great!

Great Great!

I visited this place in the morning around 10 am and it was worth the commute.

The cafe is located in a residential area. It has a terrace with a few tables.
The calm and beautiful park right ahead was all I needed 🙏🏻

I had croissant and hot chocolate, and they were both delicious!

Owner has a cheerful personality 💚

Atención espectacular

La verdad se merecen más que 5 estrellas, más bien 10 o 20...! En serio. La dueña es MUY simpática, se nota que lo hacen todo con amor, toda la comida la preparan ellos y el resto de productos que puedes comprar en la tienda los traen directo de Italia. El amaretti vegano... pensé que no existía pero sí, y sólo en este sitio lo encontrarás. La crema de piñones es una pasada, no querrás más comer Nutella (vegana o no) después de haberla probado!!! Realmente de los mejores sitios veganos que pueda recomendar en Madrid, por la atención tan espectacular que me dieron. Bravissimo!!!!!

REPETIRÉ:

Fui hace un mes justo y los croissants italianos, junto con el chocolate blanco y el churro como extra, la atención y conversación de la dueña hicieron que fuese una experiencia chulísima.

Id y probad!

Cute little place

This little café run by a super friendly Italian lady is really sweet and authentic. We came for a coffee and croissant, which were good.
It was really nice chatting with the owner and she even gave us some tips on where we could have the best vegan dinner in Madrid.

A must visit in Madrid

I am very happy to be back to check the new dolce and vegana and it is just perfect. They offer a wide selection of sweet goods, and serve it in a very eye pleasing way. All the items are genuine italian and outstand the offer of other cafeterias. Definitively one of the best vegan places in Madrid.

Original note (gelato store):
It is a tiny place, some type of coffeshop/bakery with only "to go" goods. When I visited them, they had mostly ice cream and a few selection of sweets. The icecream was very good, however the selection was mainly limited to sorbets. I would like to have some piece of cake, too, but they were gone.

The place is OK as there is no vegan cafés in the neighbourhood, but I miss some more variety in the selection of sweets

Updated from previous review on 2018-07-24

Pros: nice sorbets

Cons: tiny, limited options

Amazing Deserts

My girlfriend and I visited Dolce y Vegana multiple times. For breakfast, they have churros and other vegan pastries (mostly brought in from other bakeries) accompanied by inventive lattes. I wasn't overly impressed by this. We stopped in later for a sweet treat. Dessert is where this place really shines. They have a variety of cakes in a glass case as you walk in. I had a peanut butter and chocolate cake that I will never forget: so moist and fudgy. A little out of the way, but it may be the best dessert in the entire city.

Pros: Dessert

Cons: Location

Expensive & lack of options

The service was very friendly but unfortunately there were only two halves of cake to choose from (at 16h, when it opened on monday and one was just the gluten free version). Also one slice of cake plus one latter was 11€ - expensive.

I thought it was a place specialized in cakes, so was surprised to almost not find any there.

Excellent pastry and great coffee

I love a vegan pastry for breakfast. We walked down here to get take away but ended up sitting out the front. I had a large coffee with oat (and it was large) and a pastry with chocolate dripped on it. Both were really nice. My partner had the hot chocolate (just chocolate) and a plain croissant and he really enjoyed it. Lovely place to sit and a nice staff member. Very kind even though my Spanish is non existent.
