Best spot for vegans in Gili T! Staff very friendly and helpful, a lot of yummy options! We went every day for breakfast and sometimes for brunch. Good coffee with a nice view

Great quality, friendly staff. Had loads of great brunch options and fresh juices and smoothies. So good that we ordered lunch from them - they also deliver.

Not sure of the great reviews… poorly managed staff, they all talk to eachother & you have to ask alot to be served & ended up seating ourselves. Any requests are ignored so we had to send back & the avocado toast had no flavour....Wouldn’t go againMore

Really poor - ordered the purple wrap which was basically a half filled wrap with red cabbage in it barely any feta/pepper/eggplant in it like it was meant to be. No one checked if the food was okay. People around us kept asking the waiting...staff to come over so they could order but they seemed more interested in wrapping cutlery in napkins. Such a shame as it was our first experience of food in Gili T. After reading reviews it sounds like it’s a better place to go for breakfast.More

Arrived for breakfast. Waited 15+ minutes to be served even though we had asked waiter twice. We ordered and came back to tell us no pancakes today? So we changed order. Food came in 3s - 3 people and we all received our food at...different times- all egg based and cold. We asked for 2 cokes extra butter and ketchup, we had to ask 3 times, the butter came after we finished eating. Overall slow, poor service. Would not recommend. Table beside us walked out as they were not being served also.More

The best place to have breakfast in Gili T! Staff are really friendly and the food was amazing. They also have a lot of vegan and vegetarian options to choose from. Ate here almost everyday and couldn’t complain of a single thing.

Best breakfast so far! Virta’s service was great help, serving us quickly because of our boat leaving. Good vibe and really good food: blueberry pancake, sandwiches and smoothie bowls and not to forget, good coffee 😊

We visit this fantastic place every day when we were in Gili T. The mixed-berry smoothie Bowl was our favorit. And the coffee is great. The staff is amasing. Remember to visit this place, if you go to Gili T.

One of the modern cool funky places, rather than a traditional warung. Friendly and professional service. Food a little hit and miss, but that’s entirely due to my taste rather than the restaurant getting anything wrong. The pulled jackfruit sandwich was spot on, as was...the lentil stew. The vegan ramen was a little flat in taste. They have vegan ice creams which are amongst the best I’ve ever tasted. Also amongst the most expensive I’ve ever had (not sure I’d be buying an ice cream for £4 back in London). Came multiple times and would come again.More

Amazing food, delicious cakes and many vegan/vegatarian, healthy options. Cinemon bun unbelievable, light and delicate, best you can find in the islands. The cakes are delicious, especially the key lime cheesecake. During lunch time the service can be slow
