average, and not clearly labeled

This place is currently listed on google as "vegan restaurant", so I'm happy to see that it's correctly listed here as "vegan options". The issue is their vegan, vegetarian and meat options are not labeled as such, they're all together (see pic) and you have to ask the (very friendly) staff. The lady only told me one of the quiches had bacon on it because I asked...

I see on the other reviews here that some non-brazilians went there and thought everything was vegan or at least vegetarian, so I guess if you can't speak portuguese, it's a real problem. As they offer a good amount of vegan options, would it be that hard to label their salgados? Also, the salgados were kinda dry and not very good. There are better options in the area.

Mate gelado clássico da Rua Augusta

Lugar clássico da Augusta para tomar um mate gelado (com várias possibilidades) e comer pão de melado (altamente recomendado) no esquema balcão. Há opções veganas de salgados e bolos também.

Tout est parfait

Tout est super bon, vegan et pas cher ! Les dames sont très sympas et le petit stand aussi. Il y a un batido au lait végétal et chocolat qui est très bon !

Pros: Tout !

Quick breakfast

Google offered a vegan place, so I was a little disappointed that it was vegetarian. But they had many options of typical Brazilian salgados and cakes. The capuchino was good they serve it with chocolate.
Unfortunately the bauro de vegarela I had was way too salty.
The lady was a little rough first but then warmed up.

Pros: Many options , Sitting outside , Low costs

Cons: Bauro de vegarela

Mate

Muitas opções, mas o atendimento foi bem ruim, o kibe que comi estava duro (parecia velho) e caro demais.

Boa quantidade de opções

Muitas opções de salgados veganos...A atendente fez questão de informar que a maioria dos salgados são veganos.

Melhor bolo trufado

Eu sou apaixonada pelo bolo trufado deles, toda vez que vou a São Paulo preciso passar lá e comprar pelo menos uma fatia.
Já experimentei alguns salgados e amei alguns e achei outros apenas ok.
Vale a pena experimentar!

Pros: Localização, Ótimo atendimento

Cons: Preço um pouco alto

Os salgados e bolos veganos são muito bons, também tem café com leite vegetal, açaí, mate. Vale a pena parar para um lanche!

Salgados, desserts and coffee

A great collection of vegan salgados and desserts. They also have natural juices and expresso coffee. Also go there for a snack whenever I'm around.

Amazing for snacks and coffee

They had so many vegan options I couldn't believe! I loved the "quiche de alho poró com vegarella" and the "bauru com proteína de soja e vegarella". I tried the "coxinha de palmito" and the "coxinha de shimeji e shiitake" and thought they could be better seasoned and were too oily for my taste. The chocolate cake with "beijinho de coco" was amazing and their espresso and mate are also really good.

Pros: Well lacated, Great food, So many vegan options

Cons: Not the cheapest, but worth it

Good place for snacks

They have the famous Mate wich are pretty good as well açai besides that they have nice vegan cake and some nice vegan snacks as vegan quiches. The only thing that you should try in another place than there is the coxinha (brazilian famous snack) because the one that they do it is super dry.

Pros: Nice place, Vegan options, Typical brazilian snacks

They need to change/exclude Ades SoyMilk

Is not good to have just one option for a vegetable (and tested) milk. Unilever test your products in animals and Coke explore in other ways. So, they need to change it to be better.

Pros: A lot of vegan options, good coffee and cake too.

Cons: They use Ades soymilk

Great vegan snacks

Cheap but tasty vegan bites. Great variety of pastries, cakes and a delicious mate tea prepared in different ways. The açaí bowl topped with granola is amazing!

Great snacks

We stopped here after a World Cup game. It seems to be harder to find vegan food in the evenings than at lunch.
It is well located just off Paulista and serves lots of yummy snacks. Mainly little pastries. There were many vegan options. My favourites are the palmita one and the soya cheese pie.
This is slightly junky food, though it feels healthier than prime dogs burgers etc.

Francisco, who served us, speaks great English and is a really nice guy.

Pros: Palmita snack, Soya cheese pie
