Good!

Vegan breakfast wrap was decent as was the smoothie bowl. Coffee was a bit disappointing.

Ok Monkey

Coconut monkey was recommended to me. It has a white hippie young backpacker vibe. I came twice and didn’t enjoy either meal (chili and vegan breakfast) that much. Quite plain. Staff also looked at me strangely like I didn’t belong there.

Pros: Lofts of options

Cons: Mediocre taste, Off vibe

I agree with the plain part, I had the vegan breakfast also and the mushrooms were undercooked and unseasoned

Great location

Great location and great vibes at this place. There were some games by the side so my partner and I were entertained while we waited for our meals, which were pretty good. Great smoothies too 🙂

Note: I don't want to change my review because the food was good but DON'T HAVE THE SMOOTHIES. My partner had one (I tried a sip) and I assume tap water is used because he then had food poisoning 🥲

Updated from previous review on 2023-04-04

Pros: Lots of vegan options (entire section), Not pricey at all for the location

Cons: Food poisoning from smoothies

Pros: Marked vegan options, A lot of vegan options

Cons: Spices were missing in “salty” food

Must-try!

The view here is awesome and so is the food. We got some take away wraps for the ferry and we really enjoyed them (and relatively cheap) and our smoothie and coffees we had there were great too. Get some banana bread!

Pros: Lots of options, Great location, Pretty cheap

Great little caffe with a sea view and decent vegan options, full English breakfast was great, partner loved it, however my avocado and tomato on toast slightly disappointing on presentation, size and value for money

Vegan breakfast 💘

I tried the vegan breakfast and a peanut shake and both were delicious ❤️ The prices are great for what you get, everything that’s in the vegan breakfast is fantastic and the place is really comfortable and you can get a really nice view.

I love coming here to work in a chill environment and look out on the ocean! I have almost tried every juice, they are all amazing and their food is so good too! Perfect for breakfast, lunch or a snack. Good coffee as well!

breakfast with a view

This has become our favourite breakfast spot over a week on Koh Tao, thanks to the tasty vegan options and beautiful view. Their vegan breakfast is delicious and very substantial for 120 THB - a very reasonable price for a hip Western cafe like this on the island. You get a huge pile of scrambled tofu, roasted tomato with house made cashew pesto, roasted potato and sweet potato, and sautéed shiitake mushrooms. The pesto scrambled tofu is really good value st 80 THB. Make sure you try their “Amazeballs” too! The peanut butter ball really hit the spot for me. Vegan banoffee pie looked incredible and I hope we have a chance to try while still on the island. My partner was a big fan of their homemade kombucha which even I had to agree was delicious, even though it’s not usually my favourite. They also have a well stocked bar at reasonable prices. Don’t miss Coconut Monkey for great food, relaxed atmosphere, in a lovely location.

Can’t beat the location, close to the pier and many dive shops, eat here often whenever on the island; best western vegan food on the island at decent prices. Bonus dogs

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Killer coffee, Impeccable view

Cons: A bit pricy

Western vegan food, amazing location

Good western food for cheap!! Recommend to go for breakfast/brunch and go early for the best seat by the beach

Food taste is okay! Typical western food but for the price and quality totally worth it ✌🏽

Pros: Lot of vegan food, Great location, CHEAP

Cons: Taste is okay

Perfect for brekfast and dinner!

It should be 5 stars. Food is so delicious! I think there is only few non-vege options- most are vegan. The brekfast is big - you can ask for a rice instead a bread if you are GF. They have also some sweets. The staff is lovely. And the view😄Not expensive if you compare with other restaurants on this island.

Pros: Taste, Large portions, Sea view

Incredible food and views.

What a little gem this place is. After a grim night bus journey to Koh Tao, this was the first place we tried and WOW, what a breakfast. Honestly the best food I've eaten in a long time and the smoothies are absolutely delicious. The atmosphere is so chill and staff were so so friendly. Will definitely be coming back.

Pros: Loads of vegan options, beautiful sea view.

Cons: None what so ever!!

Worthy of 5 Stars

I wish Happy Cow would let you give 5 stars to non-fully-veg restaurants because the Coconut Monkey is so great. They have a both a huge vegan breakfast and lunch/dinner section as well as vegan smoothies. Everything I tried here was fantastic. Really comfy and cool place to hang out. And literally next door to Master Divers, who I highly recommend for all your scuba needs.

Nice place to wait for the ferry. They have a large selection of vegan dishes. The wrap I had was too bland and dry for my taste. The vegan monkey shake was very good 👍🏻
