My boyfriend and I went here for Valentines Day and thoroughly enjoyed our evening. My boyfriend is even a meat eater and he loved his meal! I tried the tofish burger which was nice, I did get envious seeing other people's burgers as they looked delicious too. The gherkin golf balls with cheeze sauce were so tasty, and the mac and cheese. Definitely recommend visiting here if you are vegan, veggie, pesci, or trying new things!

N. O.

I really love this place. The staff are really lovely and happy and the food is always on point. When we took my 10year old step daughter"s for the first time she commented after two mouthfuls of the kids burger "we are definitely coming back here"! It doesn't serve alcohol but you can BYOB for a corckage fee.

C. S.

Amazing food. Great for vegan and non vegan eaters!

L. S.

Amazing choice of vegan food. I love the fact they do fresh juices, vegan protein shakes and smoothies too . The food is always delicious and the place has great energy. All the taste none of the cruelty from this most fabulous 100% vegan restaurant.

J. E.

Wonderful choice of vegan food and flavours. All amazingly fresh and very tasty. Can take your own alcohol but charge £2.50 per person corkage ! Best to ask for table in front of restaurant as can be busy at back with store room and loo.

M. C.

One of the best restaurants (not just vegan) I've been to. Love the decor and atmosphere but the food is special. I had the southern fried burger - immense! Definitely going back.

S. G.

Visited this restaurant with some vegan friends, as it was one of the few vegan eateries that was open in the evenings. Although not a vegan myself, I thought the food was delicious. The menu was not huge, but still more extensive than most vegetarian/vegan places I have visited. Service was ok, although I found it quite difficult to attract the attention of staff at times. We all had different main courses and were all really impressed. Starters were ok, but perhaps could have been a bit more imaginative. I'm knocking a star off because I phoned up to book a table, and was told there was nothing available until an hour after the time I requested - surprising for a Monday night. As it happens I turned up early, and found the restaurant to be half empty. Had I just turned up at the original time I am fairly certain I would have got a table without difficulty, so not sure what that was about. This will not stop me going back again though, as good vegan restaurants are hard to find.

G. O.

This is a vegan haven!! The food is consistently excellent and the service is awesome! So friendly, reasonably priced and you leave satisfied. I'm a regular even though I live outside of Cardiff.

My non-veggie partner took me to Anna Loka for a surprise. It was the first time he’s visited a vegan restaurant. He said him self, he thought the southern fried seitan burger was delicious and he was “pleasantly surprised”, which is massive as he very rarely doesn’t have meat in his meals. I had the rodeo burger and thought it was delicious too. We’ve finished our meal with a peanut butter milkshake and an almond butter protein milkshake - both of which were really thick (that’s a good thing!) and full of flavour.I would definitely recommend this place.

N. B.

Love it at Anna-Loka they have an awesome menu with a great selection. This was the first time I had tried their breakfast menu and it didn't disappoint! Their food is amazing and all cruelty free. The staff are also wonderful and really helpful. Thank you

A. M. D.

I Love this place and go there every time I am in Cardiff or near Cardiff which sadly isn't very often! I love the tofu with Bali peanut sauce, the pancakes, the tofu burger (can't remember what it's called on the menu). Really nice food.

P. H.

Very polite staff , food was amazing and took home my left overs, clean establishment and mother and baby friendly

J. W.

Excellent vegan food and drinks in a trendy little caf, highly recommended

S. M.

Very rustic. Food made in a holistic approach with emphasis on natural products. Good size portions. Little expensive then expected. Friendly staff. We are having the chocolate and hazelnut cheesecake ..... too goo for words!

V. C.

Friendly staff, generous portions, really good food

H. T.

The food was delicious, the staff lovely and friendly. The hot chocolate was light and creamy and I can highly recommend the chilli dog!! I felt comfortable with feeding my little boy on the premises too no awkward glances from staff or customers. We will be visiting again soon!!!

P.

Many different dishes to choose from. The vegan food was delicious and there was great customer service as well. We went on a Sunday and it was very busy but other than that we had a good time.

C.

Very good vegan foods and a cozy place to have kids around.

G. G.

One of my favorite places in Cardiff. The food is superb, the staff is always really friendly, and the owner Adam always remembers us when we come in. Our local vegan meet-up group meets here occasionally, and they always handle 25+ guests flawlessly.

s. r.

Very good vegan food, nice staff and good atmosphere. Open kitchen which was really cool. Only potential downside is no alcohol for sale (you can take your own with cork charge) but we found this meant we enjoyed our food more. I look forward to going here again.

A. H.

Amazing. Everything was perfectly cooked and unique. Super tasty. Get the chili choco veg-milk shake. It's really spicy and really good! Staff were really friendly too... made recommendations for when I return to Bristol. Prices are totally reasonable too. I had a savory pancake stuffed with mushrooms, leeks, olive tapenade, sour cream, and pesto. Side salad. Fried pepper starter with mint mayo. All vegan.

L. C.

A fab place to eat super fresh yummy food! Their menu options are brill,gluten free options too...best sweet potato fries and garlic aioli! Not to forget good juices/smoothies/coffee and cakes...just go,best to book as they are often busy!

J.

Went here on 26/02/22 after many recommendations. + Amazing food as a meat eater myself. + Ordered "Bad Boy Burger" and wife had "Arabian Wrap". + Must try the " Almond Butter Crunch" milkshake and the owner gave my wife a custom drink which she loved. + Nice ambience. + Would like to come again and try their other options :)

D. W.

Amazing food . Ring to book as it is quite small and very popular. The place is warm and comfortable . For the food the prices are good and a decent portion. The smoothes appear expensive but we bought a couple anyway and well worth the extra cost. They were the best 2 I have ever tasted.

Z. T.

Amazing vegan food. It’s a small space so recommend booking a table. The onion rings were the best we’ve ever eaten. It’s a little expensive but well worth it. We all left in a total food coma - two not being vegan!

A. L.

The food was absolutely amazing and the staff was super friendly also.

K. S.

Lovely food, but took absolutely ages to have our order taken and for the food to come out and it wasn't particularly busy - so only giving four stars. I went for tea, but the breakfast menu looked really good so will be going to try that sometime soon.

J. R.

I'm not a vegan and I loved it. An amazing array of dishes that should cater for every taste. I'm slowly working my way through their menu, I would recommend the chilli dog with sweet potato fries..... That garlic mayo is something else. Even if you don't need food they have a good range of smoothies (vegan of course) and fruit juices that are hard to beat. I would recommend booking ahead if you plan to go in the evening (lunch time also gets busy). It's a small restaurant and their tables fill up fast. BUT if you need a fix and have left it too late then they do deliver via one of those delivery apps.

z. g.

Really tasty vegan food; some satisfying meaty craving like chilli dogs and burgers, others just great plant-based dishes. The portions are generous and bound to fill you up! The triple-cookef chips will impress even your carnivorous friends. Staff were very friendly and service was quick.

T. N.

Absolutely amazing food, was just so delicious! We tried to pace ourselves but it was so yummy we ended up eating in seconds! The people are wonderfully nice and the atmosphere is very wholesome. A***

A. G.

I'm not vegan but I love the vegan food in Anna Loka. We were only able to find a table outside in the garden and I was afraid that it will rain. It is covered and the food is definitely worth going there for even if you are not vegan

D. P.

For my main course, I ordered a Caribbean Curry, which was merely decent, though well garnished. The main part of the dish tasted like a standard (if that) Indian Curry, which was kind of watery and diluted, yet spicy, but ultimately devoid of interesting flavours. On the side was some flavoursome rice mixed with a pleasantly mild creamy sauce (the best part of the dish), a spicy and creamy dipping sauce, and some deep fried banana (though plantain would've worked better). 3/5 On the side, I had a delicious milkshake with chocolate and banana among other flavours. It was thick, creamy, and desertlike, easily the best thing I tasted there all evening, though not complimentary to the food. To be honest, I could've gone without my dessert and just had that in its place. 5/5 My dessert was really disappointing unfortunately. It was a raspberry and orange spongecake, though it hardly tasted of those fruits, as the natural flavours were so drowned out by artificial sweetness, which made it sickly and cloying, particularly the icing. Not awful though, as it was edible enough to finish. 2/5 What I tasted of someone else's dessert seemed nicer (it was a raw cake), so perhaps I just made bad decisions about what to order. However, I've eaten there twice and I remember being disappointed the first time by the texture of my seitan sausage, which shredded like duck. The people I was with though, who made different orders from me, seemed to enjoy their food more than I did. Though I would recommend Atma Cafe any day over Ana Loka. Overall, 3/5 stars.

C. P.

Delicious takeaway during lockdown! The "Tofish" in particular was excellent. Staff on the phone and delivery extremely enthusiastic and helpful, will definitely be trying again and visiting post lockdown!

R. G.

I have eaten here twice during a visit to Cardiff. The menu is more fast food than gourmet, with filling portions. The staff were pleasant and welcoming and there was a lively atmosphere. My favourite selection from the menu was the Arabian Bowl and I also loved the macaroni 'cheese'.

M. C.

Great food and great service, I'd go again.

W. R.

My second experience of a vegan restaurant. My first was greazy vegan, the less said of that place the better. Went to Anna Loka to keep my veganuary going. Walked in and was greeted warmly, sat at a table towards the back. Ordered a starter, burger and cheese cake. All 3 dishes were amazing and I'm far from a vegan. The staff seemed happy to be there and very knowledgeable about the food. Even though I more than likely will revert to my omnivore eating by February I would go back here again as a non vegan.

A. R.

Ultimate burger (gluten free option) with triple cooked chips .... absolutely gorgeous!

9.

One of my new favourite spots in Cardiff. Amazing selection of vegan food and perfect for gluten free options too (well labelled menu). Food tastes great and wasn’t too expensive

E. K.

The food is amazing. We went there as a vegetarian and two non vegetarian people and we all loved it. Prizes are a bit high but the quality makes well up for that! Even as a person who usually never eats vegan, this was delicious!!

J. L.

Amazing place for food! Service was good, staff were friendly and helpful. Food was incredible!!! Portion size was slightly too small for me but I do eat a lot so that's not a concern for most.

R. L.

Had a Saturday dinner here and was delicious!! A relaxed atmosphere, a real local hotspot for vegans. Staff were friendly, attentive and knowledgeable.

S. K.

Absolutely the perfect place to go to pancake day. Can't wait to try the rest of the food they have on offer. Menu looks amazing and the food and smells coming from the kitchen were amazing.

K. D.

Had a lovely meal out for a pal’s birthday here. The ramen is highly recommended. The service was good and the atmosphere laid back. Will definitely be returning.

J. F.

If they only had beds, I’d never leave. The food was amazing and the staff were lovely. Had the muhammara, the patatas bravas and the whole food bowl and it was all delicious. The peanut butter shake nearly killed me but I would have gone out smiling.

E. P.

We have been regulars to anna Loka for years. We have been visiting since it has had new owners and we still love it just as much! The new owner is very friendly and staff and the food is just as a good as before! We eat in and we sometimes get it to takeaway as we can’t get enough! Thanks for being our favourite place to eat

A.

I enjoyed the pancakes for my lunch as I arrived before 12pm and their Breakky menu is avaliable till 4pm! It was quiet when I arrived (Sat Mid Morning) , service was nice and the atmosphere was good ☺ If I'm in the area , I'll pop by 👧 yet hopefully they may open another Restaurant / Cafe in town or Canton area❗

M. M.

Have just finished a magnificent meal here. It was one of those meals you don't want to end. Lovely place, lovely staff and a top class menu at great prices. Will be back when next in Cardiff.

S. D.

Really, really, really nice vegan food. A little bit pricey, but it was exceptional. My wife said it was the best vegan cooked breakfast she has ever had.

L. W.

Amazing food. Had the thai green curry. Really friendly staff and the food came in a fairly quick amount of time. Doesn't serve alcohol but they are more than happy to bring your own

N. E.

Absolutely fantastic! I had the Cali breakfast and the raw peanu tbutter and chocolate 'cheese'cake. Oh. My. Word. Beyond tasty and beautifully presented. The staff are lovely, service is super polite and Adam was so pleasant and friendly. I have a great fondness and respect for Hare Khrisna devotees anyway and always make a point of visiting their eateries, but this one is unique in it's menu and in that it doesn't serve milk which is awesome. If you live near Cardiff, go there, if you don't, you deserve a city break, go anyway! Thanks so much :D :P

J. M.

Although we booked a table, when we arrived I was told there was a 45 minute wait. It was very small and noisy so we left. I can't say anything about the food because we never got the chance to taste it. Not great access for people with disabilities.

G. L.

1st Class food, friendly and attentive staff and settings. Good range of food and drink. Book before going, especially on weekends because it's very popular. You can feel the care and passion behind this place! Thank you

J. M.

Tasty, delicious veggie food. Great atmosphere - relaxed and friendly. Location felt a bit out of the way but was well worth the journey.

r. m.

Smoothies, juices, breakfast, lunch, and dinner - not to mention cakes (they stock naturally kind, the best vegan bakery literally ever). A completely vegan menu with a variety of choices that have pleased even my meat eating friends

D. P.

Really tasty vegan & friendly staff

s. r.

Fabulous restaurant...such friendly and knowledgeable staff ...The menu was varied and the food was incredibly tasty. I had never been to A Vegan restaurant before but Aaron went through everything and there was so much choice it was difficult to choose!!.. I would Thoroughly recommend it....

A. r.

I went to this place every couple of weeks for almost a year, loved it! The food is stunning and still is!! But now 2020 it has changed. The service wasn't the best at all and the staff are miserable, it really took away from the experience . I left the place on a dampener and gutted really as I love everything else about Annaloka.

C. A.

Absolutely amazing service everytime I go. Food is consistent and delicious, staff are wonderful and the place has a beautiful decor. A true Cardiff landmark for veganism.

C. C.

Wonderful choice of food, all vegan! Sometimes it seems a bit too experiment and doesn't work all the time but the pancakes were delicious and it's so nice not having to analyse the menu before choosing something to eat.

S. T.

Fantastic vegan restaurant of a very high standard. Lovely people, am so happy they have been able to reopen at such a difficult time.

S. K.

This is a totally wonderful taste experience! Fantastic, fresh and exciting vegan food and drink. Intimate but unpretentious. Staff are so friendly.

C. W.

The best burger I have ever had!

Q. S.

Interesting and delicious vegan dining in stylish surroundings, plus staff are always very pleasant. Definitely a top spot for catching up with friends and sampling tasty global ideas.

R.

Lovely food and friendly staff. However, it was slightly overpriced and the outdoor seating needed some cushions.

N. R.

Great little vegan restaurant, and the guys working there were more than happy to answer any questions. Was fairly new during my visit and so looking forward to popping back in to see how the menu has settled down now everything has settled in!

R. B.

Laid back atmosphere, and the salad was just about perfect.

L. O.

The food here is second to none a true gem in the Cardiff vegan restaurant crown,absolutely stunning nothing was to much trouble at all, the food was freshly cooked to perfection and so many flavours. Very quick friendly service. The owner is a fantastic guy he really went the distance to sort a table out for us onValentine's night well deffonatly be going back and id recomend it to anyone🙏👍

D. C.

Amazing food. Gluten free vegan food is a rare find at this level of quality. Reasonable pricing and great atmosphere. Will become a regular lunch spot

a. m.

Good food but miserable staff. Felt like it was a hardship to serve us. Messed up our gluten free order as well.

J. S.

We had the Carribean curry and the ultimate burger and loved both. They were delicious and filling. Neither of us are​ vegan, but we'll definitely be back!

A. M. G. (.

This is a super must place to be. Delicious fresh food, but truly absolutely delicious, the place is clean, the energy is fascinating, you just don't want to leave. I can't wait to go back. My hear will always be there. Thank you ♡

A. E.

Fabulous cake! and beautifully presented delicious meals in a relaxed and calm environment I strongly recommend it even if you've never tried vegan before as the food is wonderful! !

D. T.

Wow really good vegan food - very tasty and not dry! Back room appears to be set up like a hut in the Himalayas. No licence for alcohol though.

J. W.

Slightly wary of vegan places which mimic burgers etc...but had the aubergine fillet stuffed with turmeric buckwheat, cherry tomatoes & kale crisps served with charred purple sprouting broccoli, sun-blushed toms and various other goodies and could not have enjoyed it more. Fool and hummus for starter also de-lish. Will return and recommend.

D. O.

Wow the food is spectacular. Well worth a visit. Very friendly service. There cake it very yummy. Will be going back when next in Cardiff.

R. S.

A decent vegan restaurant worth a visit, the food vouches for itself. Something different on offer compared to whats being sold at fast food chains.

S. R.

Amazingly tasty food!!... but felt like it is quite overpriced. I personally found the chairs very uncomfortable and it didn't seem like the AC was on.

m. e.

The food (we enjoyed Tofish and Fries) was excellent. A welcome suprise after a somewhat lengthy walk from the city centre. The venue is very attractive, relaxed vibe, with very friendly staff. Would visit again, if in the area

D. A.

Amazing vegan food, love going there but can get very crowded so I would make a reservation. Best patatas bravas I have ever had, would also highly recommend the Rodeo Burger.

b. c.

Nice place,we turned up late,they allowed our dog in,food was amazing,potatas bravas and beetroot falafel wrap,pleasant atmosphere and staff,looking forward to eating there again

S. M.

This place is a real gem...Lovely Vegan food...AND the service was impeccable. .. Outside area...Lovely desserts and smoothie ,s...Herb Tea.....Highly recommended. ...Great Atmosphere and ethos....

L. W.

Definitely a wonderful cafe to stop by and grab a bite at. Wonderful atmosphere and friendly staff

Z. K.

Been here several times and everytime it's been amazing. Can't wait for my next visit!

A. H.

This is a 'must go to' if you're a fan of vegan food. This is one of the best vegan restaurants I have been too - really special. Delicious, original and healthy food and smoothies.

z. k.

Even as a non vegan I found the food at anna-loka really good, well balanced flavours and textures. The restaurant has a laid back feel with a great atmosphere and very welcoming helpful staff.

A. L.

Gorgeous vegan food. Quick service. Friendly staff. Very busy though so be sure to book a table.

J. M.

Loved the food, loved the atmosphere. Really appreciated how they didn't over book and try to cram more people in even though several walk ins had to be turned away.

J. F.

Staff are lovely, food is fantastic, always hard to get a parking space but that's just the way it is in that area of Cardiff.

J. L.

Love eating here! Staff are lovely and always cater to any specific needs. The food is fantastic and speaks for itself. You must give this place a try.

L. P.

Love this place. The breakfast is amazing, and service is super. Great location and interior. The desserts were delicious, everyone really enjoyed the food. Highly recommend!!

M. W.

Had the breakfast bap, really tasty, different and high quality. Would definitely recommend :) Visited again for an excellent smoothie and spicy wrap, 5 star!

N. S.

Amazing food, went there for lunch today with my family. Staff was helpful and friendly lovely restaurant and simply delicious and great atmosphere.

G. A.

Amazing food. Amazing service. The best vegan smoothies ever. So good I made myself food sick after eating too many of them.

A. B.

Some of the best food I've ever tasted!

D. C.

An(other) great vegan place in Cardiff! Quite close to Roath park so I'd advise to go for one of their fabulous Sunday Roasts (the Seitan one is amazing!), indulge for a (not)cheese cake - the pace is very cozy and friendly - and have a stroll in the park for burning some of those calories!

G. H.

Always love this place! They're very vivid prepared too! The food is as good as ever

A. G.

Amazing food! Cosy atmosphere! Friendly, helpful staff! Highly recommended (vegan menu suited to EVERYONE!)

P. C.

The restaurant has a nice atmosphere and staff is very friendly. The food ok but nothing exceptional. There are three different burgers on menu.

S. N.

5 stars all the way. Lovely atmosphere, attentative staff. Food was amazing. All in all best vegan restaurant i have been to.

R. O.

I'd been meaning to book Anna-Loka for some time after seeing it on Dirty Vegan and reading the positive reviews about the food there. My partner and I have recently gone vegetarian, so I finally booked us a table for our first vegan experience and it didn't disappoint. We had the sharing platter for our starter and the menanam burger for our main. It was quite simply delicious! The deserts were great too. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the service very swift. We left the restaurant feeling very content and will definitely be visiting again. Well done, Adam, you've created a fantastic little restaurant here!

H. G.

Amazing food and great staff. I thoroughly recommend the rodeo burger and the raw chocolate and hazelnut cake - absolutely delicious.

D. R.

First vegan restaurant ive been too and i was not disappointed one bit. Delicious indeed. Would go again and again and again :P

A. M.

I'm not veggie and niether is my wife. This is one of the best meals we've ever had and don't get me started on the chocolate smoothie. OMG!

R. E.

We enjoyed a lovely meal in the private courtyard. Friendly staff and good service. Vegan. What more could you want?

f. p.

Been three times now breakfast one day lunch and dinner and all ocations had the most amazing food gave them a 5 star the staff were friendly and so good I'm going to recommend to everyone for sure and csnt wait to est there again.

S. h.

Food was really tasty and presented well. Also as its a vegan restaurant i really appreciate them keeping the bug living in the flower garnish there, i was desperate for a bit of meat; now thats what i call customer service.

A. n.

Absolutely GOLD! Love this place so much the food is always amazing and the cakes are to die for! Visit Anna-Loka immediately !!!! Seriously, stop what you are doing and go NOW! 5 stars

s. v.

Awesome signature dishes would give 6 stars if I could !

B. S.

Excellent food! Care is taking to prepare each dish at this restaurant, it tastes amazing and the price is right too, recommend the smoothies especially the MUD. 5 stars

A. O.

Good vegan choices, nice vegan burgers and I'm a meat eater so that was a pleasant surprise. A little pricey though, perhaps there's room for a lot more competition in the vegan restaurant market?

H. H.

Thank-you to Aaron and the team at Anna Loka for hosting and feeding our party of 20+! The restaurant is a lovely venue and was perfect for my partner's surprise 40th birthday party. We pre-ordered food prior to the evening, and all went as smoothly as hoped for. We had lovely relaxed service from a friendly team. The location was perfect for pre-gig food before going on to The Globe. We will definitely come back!

e. !.

absolutely loved it! everything we ordered was SO delicious and the portions are amazing! my eyes are definitely bigger than my stomach so I didn’t finish it all, but managed to get some to go containers😌 The staff are very friendly as well, overall a wonderful experience! Can’t wait to go back again!

R. W. A.

Wonderful food, friendly staff, food arrived after 40 minutes of ordering. Busy Fridays, I guess. Would go again with fingers crossed!

P.

Really lovely vegan food

J. T.

Found this restaurant rather on the expensive side taking advantage of those punters who want to b vegetarian. For those customers who r on Universal Credit it b best they stay on the'meat-er minute'!

J. H.

Fantastic vegan food. All the dishes I've had here have been exceptional and the staff are superb.

T. E.

I ate here with my girlfriend in June. Singularly the yummiest vegan food we ate at all along our travels The owner is amazing and the quantity and quality is perfect A definite recommendation

C. J.

Bravas were lacking, but the vegan ramen was worthy of my eternal jealousy. Great Chilean wine too!

G.

Delicious! And great staff! Recommend the Seitan roast. Tastes similar to meat and yummy gravy.

S. B.

Great food. 100% vegan. 100% tasty. Would eat there every day if I lived locally

K. G.

The Sunday Roast is THE BEST roast I’ve ever had. The service & food is always great. Lovely place run by lovely people.

L. B.

Beautiful food, been twice now and both times have been a wonderful experience. Great service and gorgeous at inside.

P. Q.

People were nice not as busy as it used to be, I think it’s been taken over by new owners. I didn’t feel the professionalism as it did once before. I ordered a tofu fish and triple cooked chips. The tofu fish was very nice the triple cooked chips came out cold in the middle they were not cooked properly through. I told the gentleman who was serving me he offered to refry them or cook a new portion. Obviously I decided on a new portion. I didn’t get as many as I did 2nd time round and they were very greasy and didn’t taste great they were ok at least I didn’t get food poisoning. The gentleman asked me if I liked the tofu fish to which I replied I did but I mentioned they may want to reconsider they’re triple cooked chips because they wasn’t very nice or could be the cooking oil who knows.

K. A.

One of the best vegan places I have ever eaten. The staff are so friendly and the food is always amazing

N. D.

One of the nicest restaurants in Cardiff. Definitely worth visiting whether you're vegan or not.

G. K.

The best food I have eaten in a while. Increadibly friendly and helpful stuff. Krishna bowl and oreo cake 💚💚💚💚

D. H.

Beautiful place, beautiful food, beautiful people. 10/10 as always. Had the tempeh burger, with the amazing sweet potatoes fries!

J. l.

Best veggie burger ive ever had! (Im ignoring the long wait it took to arrive on this occaision...it was worth it)

H. G.

It's a must...lovely friendly staff and would recommend there Liver tonic Juice and King Avacado wrap.😄

G. J.

Reviewing this as a non - vegan, who went with my vegan girlfriend. Very friendly, chilled restaurant. A lot on the menu that I was interested in. Arrived 20 minutes early and we were still shown to our table and had our order taken. Staff were polite friendly and explained some of the dishes to us. Very impressed, will definitely eat there again.

J. P.

Fantastic food! Definitely lived up to the reviews I'd read..

Most amazing taste sensation experience you will ever have, plus no guilt because it really could not get any healthier

Came across this place by accident and was very pleasantly surprised. So many amazing vegan options it was almost impossible to choose but went for the pancakes with vegan bacon. It was the best began bacon I have had in my 3 years of being vegan. Staff were all so friendly and accommodating and the place was decorated so cool.

Everyone and everything is so lovely. The kitchen guys will do what they can to adjust to any allergies etc. 5 stars!

T. P.

I felt like I belong here just as simple as that! 🦋 decent prices for amount of work! Polite personnel and very tasty food. Lovely location and cosy atmosphere. It’s something that is not just a trend is what is should be everywhere. Take it as an example. Respect for life and people is what I think is transpiring here as their values are kept by the care they have about! Thank you very much! If you get lucky you can have a free parking space for about 2 hours 🤪I did!

O. P.

Great food, friendly staff, fairly priced, 5 stars ! Will come back 👍👍

Good place, interesting menu, although I enjoy punchier flavours and more vegetables

Went as a group booking and they were unable to produce chips. It was badly cooked sauté potatoes.

Cardiff's only vegan restaurant. Nice food but the surroundings could be better.

The rodeo burger was perfect and this cake was almost as good as the company I u was in!

k. c.

Great food and friendly staff.

O. J.

Bought the breakfast on wiggle discount. Had lovely flavours . Enjoyed fresh juice too

A. G.

A nice cool vegan restaurant in the heart of Cardiff City, Wales. The interior is so beautiful with stone carved walls. Quite a hip rustic design. Pure vegan restaurant with a lot to choose from. Had the Krishna bowl and vegan burger with sweet potato fries. There are some vegan cakes too! Recommend the lemon cake. Highly recommend visiting this place.

J. N.

Really, really delicious vegan food and lovely serving staff! The only drawback was being able to see people eating in the kitchen while wearing gloves that they presumably wear to prepare the food.

A. M.

Amazing food and drinks. A must visit for any vegans in Cardiff area

A. G.

Very good and I'm not even vegan. Chili dog, excellent!

Amazing vegan food! I have recently experienced the Sunday nut roast dinner and it was mouthwateringly good. Every mouthful was splendid especially the creamy leeks. Loved it!

S. h.

Food was really tasty and presented well. Also as its a vegan restaurant i really appreciate them keeping the bug living in the flower garnish there, i was desperate for a bit of meat; now thats what i call customer service.

I. W.

okay, but you must enjoy vegetarian food to make the most of it.

Lovely food and staff were great.

K. P.

Fantastic burgers and juices. No meat but nit just for veggies.

A. C.

I am not vegan but this place certainly makes me consider becoming. The food has a bags of flavour and it’s nice to find full meals of restaurant quality. I was a little cautious at first but now it’s one of my favourite places to grab a bite out.

D. G.

As a vegan meal this was okay but I don't think I'll repeat the experience.

Amazing vegan food. Highly recommend

R. S.

Best vegan food in Cardiff perhaps.

u. d.

lovely place and customer service, delicious food

T. M.

Enjoyed the food, the atmosphere was great so overall very pleased. Great cake selection! Would recommend the tofu wrap over the burger. Only criticisms would be that upon seating us and giving us the menus, we weren’t told that only the Sunday menu items are available on a Sunday, which meant we had to choose different things. Why not then just have these specific menus to hand out on the Sundays? And also, just like in any other vegan food establishment, there was something that they had ran out of and couldn’t serve.

J. P.

The coconut milk flat white is excellent.

D. W.

Beautiful food and wonderful staff

M. C.

Food was amazing

C. D.

Super good food and friendly staff

M. T.

Best vegan food place I've been to

S. M.

I was doubtful about this place as the dine-in was not available as per google due to COVID, however when we called up they confirmed that they are operational. Had the Krishna’s mighty bowl at this place and it was unusually good as the combination was very different from what I’ve had before.

B. J.

Been waiting so long to try the new vegan Chinese food and the old items from the previous menu. Couldn’t be more happy with the whole experience, we had travelled down from London to come down and the owner was so welcoming to allow us to come during their break hours as we were having a really bad day due to the traffic and our hotel cancelling our reservation. The owner went out of his way to help us find and book accommodation for my family. Not to mention the food was absolutely delicious and out nothing in our home comes close to the food experience we had. Really loved the idea of being able to create our own secret sacred juice by picking the off the list of ingredients options, 100% recommend and ask for Aaron if you’re ever in Cardiff.

M. F.

Went for the first time and won't be the last. Neither myself nor my partner are vegetarian but we absolutely appreciate good vegan food and our burgers didn't disappoint. We were first seated in quite a loud area next to the kitchen but after explaining to the staff I can't handle much noise (anxiety etc.), she happily moved us. We ended up outside which seems like it would be a great seating area... I think the day we went it wasn't really set up for customers so outside wasn't the comfiest. Pallet seating with no cushions etc. Other than that, great place and would definitely go again.

N. P.

Delicious! First time we come but won't be the last one. Really tasty food in a beautiful and relaxing place. Highly recommended.

V. M.

Very well designed very healthy and very tasty meals. Guilt free dining. Amazing coffee. Lovely cakes.

G. F.

It has changed ownership it seems. We had a good time but the range of food on offer was much less in comparison to before. The staff seemed helpful and a pleasant Atmosphere but food not up to the standard It had previously been unless it was just their lunchtime menu.

C. H.

Amazing vegan dishes! Took my non-veggie/vegan and sceptical family to Anna-Loka and every plate was cleared and compliments all round! The Cali breakfast is to die for!

K. P.

We had the tofish and the vegan breakfast, both delicious. Very generous pots of tea too.

P. C.

Had a great evening at Anna Loka. Aaron and the team made us feel very welcome and cooked us a range of starters, mains and desserts, that we all shared. The range of dishes were prepared and presented expertly. I had originally made the booking as a treat for our vegan daughter. She loved everything about the evening, but all of us non vegans in the family really enjoyed the food and relaxed atmosphere too. The dishes had some real distinct and varying flavours that reminded us of meals we had enjoyed together on our travels around South East Asia. Will definitely be back when next in Cardiff.

M. G.

The service is friendly and fast. The dish I had was good in terms of flavour but I’m just not a fan of cold rice (personal issue though)! The coffee cake was what stood out to me most however!

M. F.

Excellent place to go. Unusual to see a fully vegan vegetarian restaurant and it's so filling

J. M.

Well, it made the list of the most instagrammable breakfasts in Cardiff, and rightfully so - the Cali breakfast is really beautiful, I definitely recommend getting the jazzy beans on the side, as the flavours of the breakfast itself are mostly quite simple. The dollop of ketchup on the switch sausage is scrumptious but not enough for this sauce-lover! The tofu scramble couldn’t done with a bit more pizzazz I reckon - maybe some veggies in it? Chilli sauce? Not sure but it was all delicious though, and impeccably presented! We also took a slice of cake to go and it was huge and yummy!! The space is cute and quirky, and was full of reserved signs on tables when we snuck in early(ish) on a Sunday morning - so I’d recommend booking to avoid disappointment. Lovely staff, helpful and friendly, excellent service and food.

H. F.

The Rodeo Burger was absolutely DIVINE. Divine. Zeus himself would’ve ordered it if he was vegan. To be honest you don’t even need to be vegan to appreciate how lush the food here is :D I actually looked forward to my burp so I could taste it all again, highly recommend!

J. R.

I am not a Vegan but my friends are and we decided to go here for tea. The food was AMAZING, throughly enjoyed my food there, definitely going back next time we are in Cardiff

A. S.

Delicious, well-presented food and great communication throughout the process of using Anna-Loka to cater for a small-medium sized birthday party, would highly recommend! We asked Anna-Loka if they could cater (not knowing if this was possible) for a 20-25 people gathering in Penarth, Vale of Glamorgan due to having several guests who are vegan, veggie and/or gluten intolerant. Spoke to Aaron (recent new owner of the business) about portions and what food could be made suitable for ‘buffet style’ type catering and he was more than happy to discuss ideas and cater for our needs and at a good price. He was able to deliver the food to our doorstep on the day which was very convenient. The food was delivered fresh to our house at the time discussed and kept warm with foil dishes and containers provided by Anna-Loka. The food looked and tasted delicious, it was clear a lot of time and effort had gone into making the food and every single guest commented how tasty it was and some of the best vegan food they had eaten in a long time. There was plenty of food which was lucky due to more guests arriving than planned although it went down so quickly we couldn’t take any photos. We had a range of food- the Donner/Arabian bowls, all the starters and sides and a range of crispy tofu dishes and dumplings so there was something for everyone. The whole process was very smooth, from ordering the food to delivering Aaron made sure that we were happy with the service and the food which we very much were. I look forward to eating in the restaurant soon and supporting Cardiff’s independent restaurants, do not hesitate to go .

G. T.

Very impressed with this 100% vegan restaurant. Great service and atmosphere, with tasty food and cakes. The saitan rodeo burger is particularly delicious and the coffee walnut cake is incredible (made by Naturally Kind Food in Bridgend)

J. R.

Best vegan restaurant in Cardiff! Original and tasty food! Good service, the owner is very nice. I had the bacon maple blueberry pancakes! so good!

M. B.

This is such a fabulous place to eat. The drinks menu is excellent for health drinks and smoothies. The staff were really friendly and helpful. The only negative was I did come out smelling of oil which wasn't very nice.

N. E.

I’m a bit meat eater so was sceptical about coming to a veggie restaurant but I was honestly blown away with the quality and the tastiness of the food at Anna Loka. It was my friend’s 30th and the staff were so nice and friendly and really helpful with the menu(especially as I’m coeliac)… would 1000% recommend and will be back again!

D. D.

Simply amazing vegan food and in Cardiff to boot puts many vegan café in London that I've tried in the shade. Can't recommend a trip to this place if your in Cardiff enough. Amazing staff too.

C. R.

Absolutely fantastic. Great place to eat. Amazing staff. Amazing food. Owner was so welcoming and polite. Great customer service. Thoroughly enjoyed the food. Definitely did NOT leave hungry. Will defo return. Highly recommend to anyone wanting amazing food in Cardiff!!!

M.

Amazing vegan food and very friendly staff. So lucky to get a table during busy times. Would definitely return. :)

D. A.

It was a last minute decision to go there, recommended by my daughter. We rang to book a table given that we were due there around 8.30pm and knowing they closed at 9 that evening and they were very happy to accommodate us. On arrival the staff were excellent. Very friendly couldn't do enough for us and very knowledgeable. The food was Amazing. I really enjoyed it and will be returning very soon. A little gem.

S. K.

Appetizing food. Friendly staff.great venue Food reasonable so tasty and filling...very nice decor and music was relaxing...

G. S.

Wow....amazing. The best vegan food I have eaten in many many years. You must try the Asian Fusion. Everything looks amazing. Just wished I lived in Cardiff to eat my way round the menu. And...I was able to bring my dog which some of the other vegan restaurants in Cardiff don't allow.

M. K.

Ordered rodeo burger with seitan that was extremely salty and very crumbly falling apart. Onion ring sith on tomato that made it so soggy all the fun in eating crispy coating gone. Sadly low rating also due to service. Order to take away-asked to come back in 5min than stood for 10min or being ignored by all staff. Food was ready packed under the counter. Disappointed!

P. B.

Excellent service, friendly staff. Delicious Vegan food with creative presentation and fabulous combinations of flavour. The vegan cakes are out of this world! I will return...

s. m.

Lovely food, friendly staff, you must eat out here!

K. S.

An amazing first experience here. Staff were friendly, the portions just right and the food to die for. Whenever we are back in Cardiff we'll be sure to visit again!

D. C.

Had a breakfast bap when passing through (Well, I say passing, we went out of our way on our way back from the Welsh coast into the middle of Cardiff just to eat there). It was so good I could have cried, partly because I was happy, and partly because it's the other side of the country and I can't go there every day.

G. S.

Fantastic! The food was out of this world, some of the tastiest and most satisfying food we have ever had. I'm not a vegan, though I do have a very controlled diet for health reasons. However, if you aren't vegan either then don't overlook this absolute gem of a restaurant based on that minor detail. You would be missing out on some truly amazing food that is not only delicious but full of the good stuff as well. I had the Krishna Whole Food Bowl, which was sensational. A generously portioned dish that is bursting with flavour in every mouthful. The service was excellent, very friendly and welcoming and an all round pleasant atmosphere. My sincerest compliments to the chef and the waiting staff. They have a wonderful little place in Anna Loka. My only issue is why did it take so long for us to discover this place?! A 10/10 and highly recommended. We will certainly be back again.

T. S.

Lovely Saturday meal! Service was speedy and food was delicious, particularly given how busy it was.

H. D.

Our absolute FAVOURITE vegan spot in town. Knocks everywhere else out the park. Rodeo burger and Donner wrap are particular favourites. Give it a go, you will not be disappointed!

D. R.

Great vegan brunch and dog friendly too.

S. G.

A tad disappointed. Friendly people just taken over restaurant but a lot of frying going on. Menu likely to change soon so will return when up and running with that. The chana masala was very tasty tho. Be aware that starters are for TWO people.

L. O.

Wow! What a wonderful valentines meal my husband & myself had. Fantastic ambiance & great friendly staff, couldn't do enough for us. My husbands burger was out of this world. We will be back to sample more delicious food. Thank you for such an enjoyable night. 👍

S. D. R.

Really lovely visit, social distancing well maintained, very attentive and friendly service, tasty food, thank you!!

J. F.

Very nice food. Will visit again

D. B.

Fantastic! If you ever visit Cardiff then you have to eat here! Food is amazing, the ambient is lovely and the staff is friendly. I love it!

S. P.

Great service and amazing food!! Very good variety on menu all the family were catered for. Arron was particularly helpful over the phone when ordering and food was delivered very quickly! All was very fresh, still warm and delicious!

A. L.

This was the most delicious meal I’ve ever eaten. I thoroughly enjoyed every mouthful packed with flavour! It was a tad on the expensive side but completely worth it! The staff were friendly and happy to have a chat and share their foodie knowledge. Would definitely eat here again!

T. D.

The staff were very nice and friendly and helpful (and for some reason neither good nor bad, noticeably young). Nice atmosphere. The food was good, but I wasn’t blown away. My aubergine was very tough, the other bits and pieces can be looked over. I’m pleased there’s a vegan place in Cardiff, but I’m not sure it was worth the £25-30. I’d also like some healthier flour alternatives integrated into the menu. Worth a visit if passing.

R. H.

Been here 3 times. Food is consistently good and reasonably priced. Nice atmosphere and cool decor. My wife and I have taken family members here for some easy vegan sceptic wins! Highly recommend. Little disappointed on 2 different visits we asked for olives as a side and they said they couldn't give them because it wasn't on the menu; even though they had some in?

M. B.

Amazing food. But serving great Staff but could be more efficient. They need direction n training to speed service up.

C. J.

Excellent restaurant, and a counter to the couple of poor reviews just previous to mine. The burger was the tastiest and juiciest vegan burger I've ever had. I'd have liked a slightly bigger side portion, but it was fine. The "cheese"cakes are stunning too, and I enjoy a very good tea. No alcohol here - a bottle of wine would have been great - but some really delicious food.

A. L.

Wouldnt mind trying vegan restaurant as a change. Delighted to know the food is really good (nice flavour I know that's not meat!!). Scrambled tofu is a surprise. Even happier it offers stainless steel straw when asked for one. Really environmental friendly and staff are lovely. High recommend.

R. W.

I’ve been a vegetarian for five years. I’ve only been a full vegan for six weeks. This restaurant serves some of the best food I’ve ever eaten, regardless of the vegan ingredients. They do an amazing daytime menu, see photo for their fake kebab meat salad. It was so stunning we went back three days on the bounce to get more. In the evenings they do vegan Chinese food. The tofu rice is amazing, the peeking crispy tofu is exceptional, they do the best salt and chilli chips you’ll ever taste, the black bean crispy tofu is very nice indeed, and the new udon mushroom noodle dish is bonkers lovely. They make the nicest Chinese in Cardiff; arguably the country. You don’t need to be vegan to enjoy it either. I was torn whether to submit this review sharing just how good this restaurant is because if they get inundated I might not be able to get a table. However, they deserve everyone’s custom. Seriously, if you try this place you’ll be back again and again. Just had a Chinese from there. Want it tomorrow now again. Mental. It’s so nice you won’t believe it.

B. K.

Overall: Amazing food, Depressed staff, Long wait times, Auto included service charge. Came without a booking, they were able to seat us but instantly the staffs demeanor was awful. They seemed very lifeless and down, might be a management problem? Who knows. Took our order swiftly (doner wrap and breakfast pancakes), but the food took a long time to arrive. The food itself was very good 5/5. Maybe a bit expensive, but totally worth it for such a lovely meal with nutrition restrictions. Sadly, they also automatically include a service charge on the bill, of which you have to ask for it to be removed, which is incredibly demeaning. Furthermore, we waited for over 15 minutes just for them to get us the bill, and a further 15 for the card reader.

L. T.

The food and coffee here is SO delicious and staff were all lovely. Having been on a week-long trip to Wales our brunch here was the best food we had. Really recommend for vegans and non-vegans alike 🤗

C. B.

Ordered a burger with all the extras and received extra sweet potato fries, tasted amazing, top notch burger. Highly recommend.

R. B.

Best vegan food I've ever had! The people were so lovely there and their ethics are really what makes the place so special. Lots of choice on the lunch and evening menu. Everything was made with fresh and local organic ingredients, and the cakes were incredible too. Honestly the most exciting vegan food in Cardiff

J.

Popped in for a vegan dinner here while staying in Cardiff. The BBQ Seitan Toast starter was sensational, one of the best I've ever had. The burger was pretty decent too. Only downside was that the restaurant said they don't serve sides of vegetables, which seems ironic for a vegan restaurant. Overall a good experience, just lacking Broccoli and/or carrots!

Absolute perfection! We found this little gem on our way out of Cardiff, and what a find it was. Such a beautiful and cute little place with a wide variety of options. I opted for the fully loaded bap which was outstanding, as well as a fresh OJ and a slice of their mango and coconut cakes. Highly recommend people going here, I cannot fault the food, service or pricing. I left a very full and very happy vegan!

I’ve never imagined before that vegan food can be my comfort food until I tried Anna-Loka. Every item I have tried here is so delicious and has its own tone. The seasoning is unique and on spot. Their burgers are better than burgers with real meat!

I’d heard a lot about Anna Loka and it didn’t disappoint, we had the breakfast with vegan sausage, bacon and scrambled egg. I have to say it was one of the best non meat breakfast we have had. Full of flavour and interest, the only sticking point is the price. 2 breakfasts cost £25. I know a lot of creativity and effort goes into creating the elements but that’s just a bit too much for a regular thing. We had to pay extra for the jazzy beans which really should have been included in the price of the breakfast. If it was more like £8.50 per breakfast we would be there every week, but it will be more of a special occasion treat as it stands.

Myself and my other half were really blown away by this place. The food was absolutely delicious. The Cali Breakfast, the burgers, their awesome banana and chocolate shakes... one of the best meals out we've had. The staff were also really helpful and friendly and the cafe itself is very cool and chilled out. Highly recommended - whether you're vegan or not!

I'm not a vegan but I do love to try different things and a friend asked me and my partner to come to this place. It's a marvelous place to go as the food is delicious. My friends enjoyed their meals a lot although I found there's a lot of paprika involved with the things I ordered and I personally don't like too much, but my partner orders the same burger as me and she loved it so it's personal preference. The drinks are amazing too

Bit underwhelming. Burger so so. Flavour not so interesting. Small portions. Prices higher than merited. Asking to pay upfront before the food is served is somewhat rude (presumably somebody jumped the back gate without paying, but that seems a poor excuse to treat all future customers as thieves). Seems to be about fashion not food. Maybe my expectations were too high.

Honestly the best breakfast I've ever had! We all had the Cali Breakfast. It was fresh, delicious and not too heavy. Also had a great flat white and my brother had the almond butter crunch smoothie which was delicious. Cannot recommend this place enough...I think I'll have to book another trip to Cardiff soon! Oh and not forgetting the lovely relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff. Good work Anna Loka, we love you!
