Lovely

Nice place to get lunch in the centre of Boquete. We got the vegan lunch and burger with yuca fries. All really good and reasonably priced, the owner was really nice too.

Tasty and good value

We ate here 3 times and had 3 good meals. We only got the lunch deal one of those days as one day we were too early and the other too late! It seems to sell out quickly. It was beans, rice, chopped sausage in a lovely sauce and salad. We also had some excellent tamales that I think were a special as they were not on the menu, tostada, burrito, hot dog, pizza type thing on baguette and soup and all were good but especially the tostada and tamales. The place is open btw (it says temporarily closed on here currently) but I asked and it appears she doesn't usually work regular hours and opens when she wants to but it was open every lunchtime that we tried (not sure about Sundays though).
Differences in portion sizes to be noted. Generally the things that cost $6 are a full meal and those that cost $3:50 you might want to get 2 because they're smaller. Still great value for money though.

Pros: Tasty, Cheap , Pleasant lady running it

Cons: Bit of a windy spot and rain can blow in, Some things were a little slow (others not)., Lunch deal not often available

Cute, tasty vegan

Fresh, delicious vegan eating in the heart of Boquete. Made to order, and worth the wait time. Just the one lady working the small restaurant. Tasty, fresh fruit salad with dragon fruit, papaya, banana, pineapple, apple slices. Burger with all the fixings, house made burger patty. Fresh cut fries. Freshly blended lemon/limeade. Bag of house made plantain chips for later.
Everything was so good, very affordable - $13. US including bottle of water.
Covered balcony seating, upstairs overlooking market place, nearby park. Gradual ramp up to 2nd floor location, so no need to climb stairs. Easy walking distance to our small hotel, and most other downtown points of interest.

Pros: Freshly made tasty vegan food , Very affordable prices for ample servings , Great service convenient location

Cons: Limited hours

Nice little place

This is a small shop with limited offerings, but the owner is friendly and the food is tasty.
Be sure to arrive early; some of the options are limited and may run out before the end of the day.
Note despite the name not everything is 100% vegan, but it seemed obvious which items contained dairy by reading the menu. If in doubt, just ask.

MUST TRY! So lovely

Although the food is relatively simple, it is super tasty. We liked the burger so much that we both ordered another meal straight away. The price is incredibly cheap, we've never eaten so cheaply in Panama. But above all, the owners are really lovely. Although they were supposed to be closed, they kept the restaurant open late just for us. The younger woman also speaks very good English. All in all, a wonderful experience.

Pros: Heartwarming owners, Tasty, Cheap

Amazing place, really good food

Nice place with very good authentic food. I went there twice and had the vegan lunch which was really good. I also had the limonada con herbes which I loved.
The lady who runs the place is very lovely, it seems to be a small family business. Don’t miss it on your trip to Boquete😄

Go here! All vegan

This is such a good place! Has a variety of burgers, soups, rice dishes and more. Everything homemade and the lady is really lovely. Said her restaurant is fully vegan (December 2023) and it’s a must do for every vegan going to Boquete. Attention: closes early! we went for lunch.

Pros: Variety, Cheap

Really nice staff

The staff is lovely and it is great to have a vegan place in Boquete (although it is actually vegetarian). The food is veeeeery simple, nothing special, but it is great to have this place in Boquete. Also very cheap!

Small vegan restaurant

We went to the restaurant today and got the vegan lunch twice (4.75$ each). It included soy chunks, salad (tomato and avocado), rice and a little lentil soup. Water was also included. The dish was really tasty and filling. We will probably eat every lunch there as long as we stay in Boquete. The woman serving us the food was also really friendly and it seems like it is some kind of family restaurant. We definitely recommend checking it out!

Pros: Price, All vegan, Delicious and healthy

Great food and friendly staff

Rare to find good vegan food in a local market but this is a gem! We had the burger and the vegan lunch with strawberry milkshakes and a lemonade. All were delicious. My friend came who was gluten free and the owner was very attentive to her needs too, replacing the burger buns with potato slices for her.

Nice food for a nice price

The lady that owns the shop is very nice, she serves vegan lunch and vegan burgers and hot dogs, and some other vegan food. Unfortunately we were too late for lunch, but we tried the Vegan burger with fries. The bun was very good and the patty was tasty as well. This burger has got more veggies in it than most other burgers. It's a nice variety especially for lunch

Pros: Vegan , Good price, Friendly owner

Lovely little spot with fresh food and yummy flavors

I ordered a burger and while it's a simple food to prepare, the quality of the bread and fresh fillings made it taste really good. There are a handful of items on the menu and you can tell they're prepared with care. The lady working there is very friendly too and the prices are half of what I paid in Panama City. Support this small business!

Sehr zu Empfehlen

Sehr sehr lecker und Herzlich. Alles ist frisch gemacht und man kann die Küche direkt sehen. Es ist etwas schwer zu finden, man muss in dieser Einkaufs "Mal" nach oben gehen, da ist ein kleiner Stand neben dem Barber.

Pros: Sehr sehr lecker, Günstig , Sehr Herzlich und Unterstützen Tierprojekte

Cons: Bisschen schwerer zu finden

Can only recommend

Cute little spot to have lunch. I had a vegetable soup, a burger and a freshly pressed mandarine juice and it was delicious!
The menu is kinda limited but that's not a bad thing for me. Absolutely recommended!

Pros: Great value for little money , Local , Fresh ingredients

Support this business!

Unlike a lot of more urban locations, there are fewer vegan restaurant options in small towns. Two that were here last year are gone or have dropped their veggie burger offering.

What is wonderful about this place is the authentic meal the proprietor makes each day. You get a great meal made from local items from the many produce stands in the same complex.

I also meet interesting people each time I'm there so if you're seeking to meet other veg*n, or kosher, diners, this is the place to go

Pros: Authentic local business

Cons: Somewhat limited menu

Lovely vegan burger and fries

We were so pleased to find these lovely eatery. The menu is straightforward and cooked from scratch. The vegan burger was delicious - a big patty with guacamole and salad. We opted to have fries too which, cooked in an air fryer, were crispy and not at all greasy. Delicious! Highly recommend this friendly and welcoming place.

Pros: Really tasty food, Simple but inviting menu, Friendly welcome
