Not good

I really don’t know why this place is so highly rated. (Wanted to give 1 ⭐️ but HappyCow adds a star coz it’s vegetarian)
Firstly they completely forgot to make our order and when we finally asked it still took ages (over an hr)
The dishes were underwhelming and poorly prepared. I dare say they were thrown together quickly, the fries were cold and the bread under toasted.

Great food, cozy atmosphere

This is a very nice cafe, great atmosphere and very good food.
A lot of vegan options:)
I had the vegan omelet which was great! With spinach, mushrooms and vegan cheese. I also had a concha (matcha flavored) for dessert I took the vanilla one for later- both were great- also had an iced coffee which was good.

Pros: A lot of vegan options, Food is delicious , Nice vibe

good place to work, coffee was ok

the space is quite big and has also a big outside area. it's a good place to work from, the internet is stable and fast.
I only had a Cappuccino, which was good, but nothing to fancy.
Staff is friendly and they have a few vegan options on the menu

more vegan options

You need to visit Basic and try the new vegan options 🌱, I really love the scramble tofu, it comes with bread and potatoes, and other new option is the suit with yogurt it is hand made and wow I really love it.

The staff are lovely and so gentle.

Obviously don't forget to try the vegan pastries.

Please guys visit Basic Foodie ❤️

Uber Vegan Friendly

I was skeptical to go, as I don’t usually frequent vegan friendly places (I usually go to vegan only restaurants), but this place was awesome!
I had the Mother Earth sandwich, and let me tell you it was delicious. The bread and the rest of the ingredients tasted so fresh. I went on a Saturday, and they had a lot of vegan pastries on display (bagels, apple fritters, almond croissants, amongst fresh baked bread). They have some other vegan options throughout the week like chia pudding and dairy alternatives like macadamia milk. I was super fortunate to have chatted with the chef (and I think owner). Wow, so pleasant.
It’s really hard to find good customer service at some of the trendier restaurants here in playa, but this restaurant is just one of those gems. I wish I had taken some photos.
Their coffee was so good, and I wish I had taken my jar since they used a plastic cup and straw, but no big deal. Make sure you inquire about some of the powders in the fraps because they could have whey. I will totally visit here again :-)
