Special little place - Edit
This is maybe one of the only vegan places in Sintra, it’s a little pricey, but actually worth it. They have the dish of the day, when I was there it was Chile sin carne and was very good. They also make juices and they have some local boutique beer, and some nice deserts and cakes.
Read morePros: All vegan, Variety of drinks, Variety of deserts
Cons: A little expensive

Cosy and Nourishing - Edit
I had been wanting to visit this place for a while now, and now that it had turned vegan it was imperative, so I went there today.
Read moreThe food is simply marvelous and very tasty; it really cuddles your soul. The team is friendly and helpful; very nice people.
I had the brunch: yogurt with granola and fruits, followed by a tofu toast, pancakes, a fruit juice, and a cappuccino. I really enjoyed it, and my very sensitive stomach did not complain, so I am very pleased! Looking forward for the next time!
(I suggest going on less busy hours, right before lunch, or right after, or you might have to wait for a table.)
Pros: Tasty, homemade food. Nourishes body and soul.
Cons: Small place with few tables.

Their food is all made with love. You can tell that when you taste their dishes. Very well seasoned too. Don’t live nearby, but when I’m passing by I love going there. Their schedules are a bit different now because of Covid, but they still have take away.

Fantastic vegan food and cozy atmosphere - Edit
This is such a sweet place, everything was perfect, mainly vegan food and a few vegetarian choices. I ordered the soup of the day (which was beetroot), really good, and ate a toast with spinach, tofu and sundried tomatoes, which was the best toast I ever ate! The atmosphere in there was so cozy, super cute ambiente and the owner of the shop, a lovely lady, also helped us planning the rest of our day and finding the trains/busses etc. we needed to get.
Read morePros: So many vegan choices, Reasonable prices, Lovely owner

Fantastic find - Edit
Mela Canela is a great find in the town of Sintra
Read moreIt’s a small and simply but beautifully decorated cafe serving mostly vegan and some vegetarian food at reasonable prices.
We had roasted vegetables on toast with hummus (filling, tasty and unique), fresh tasting vegetable tarts (several) a coffee with rice milk and a most excellent sweet potato brownie (yes, sweet potato) with fruit and nuts on top. The raspberries lifted it to another dimension. All in all that came to €15.
The hostess and owner Mela and her staff are beautiful, warm people who were just wanted to thank over and over for the experience.
Pros: Unique and delicious offerings, Very good value, Warm staff
