Great lunch

We were very hungry after a long morning in the sun so popped in here for a bite. I ordered the veggie balsamic sandwich & it was very filling, with the option to add avocado. (the photo only shows half a sandwich because I had already eaten the other half before taking a picture) they also offer soy oat milk alternatives so I went for an oat milk latte & it was lovely. They also have a vegan brownie which they were sold out of unfortunately.

Underrated

This place is super friendly and cozy, and the burger and brownie were yummy!

Place for quick lunch

Several vegetarian options, nice atmosphere, great value/price. I had the spicy nacho grilled sandwich with tomato soup and vegetables and it was great!

Not open 2 May 2023

Maybe just a day away, but I stopped by twice - early and late afternoon - and they were closed, rolling door down and locked. I will try again and update as appropriate. Note: tomorrow is beginning of Golden Week.

Great Cafe

Popped in after a big day and ordered the Veggie Balsamic baguette, it was really tasty and a good sized portion with a side of western style salad and potato chips. The staff were really friendly and native English speakers.

Pros: Tasty baguette, Nice portion size, Friendly staff who speak English

Great place for food and atmosphere

We found this place by chance after a long walk. And we are glad that we walked in. We chose vegan burger with french fries and a vegetarian sandwich with camembert, honey and mushrooms. Both delicious. We also had vegan brownie. One of our favorite desserts. Coffee and cocoa with soy milk for drinks. We liked the place very much, it has a relaxing atmosphere. The staff was friendly with us. Highly recommend

Pros: Nice vibe

Great Atmosphere

Great atmosphere and loved playing the board games on offer. Very chilled vibe. Food however wasn’t the best.. definitely better vegan options in Osaka.

Great Find In Osaka

At the risk of sounding unworldly, I will say it was nice to have non-asian food for 1 meal in Osaka. The food was very good and the service was even better. I recommend the vegan burger and fries. And the chocolate walnut brownie. Oh, and the soy latte! The flavors are a bit different than the US, but still really good. A good place for people with soy or nut allergies (except the soy latte and walnut brownie, of course).

Good atmosphere

Staff are really friendly and informed. Food was good and fresh tasting. I ordered the balsamic vinegar sandwich with the option of adding the vegan soup (pumpkin, carrot and ginger), and a vegan brownie.

quite good

I had the vegan bean burger with salad, I was happy. The burger had some black parts, when I saw it I pulled them off, but it was still tasty. Same with the salad, which was a pleasant surprise. My friend had the blue cheese toast (is that vegetarian?) and he liked it too. Not super cheap, but reasonable. 4 stars seems right.

Tasty food amd nice atmosphere

I went with a friend of mine as we craved a vegan burger!

We found the Cafe relativly easy and I really liked the atmosphere of the store.
We both had our burgers and they where very nice :3 We also had very tasty brownies for dessert!

There are also a ton of books and board games you can play. We stayed there for two hours I think and ended up chatting instead of playing.

The owners also took their time to chat with us!

Pros: - 3 vegan options, - vegan desserts, - books and board games to play

Great Atmosphere and Vegan Options

Lingua is a family-run cafe with a really nice atmosphere, free wifi, tons of space for hanging out, and a selection of vegan options. The always have a vegan burger (on baguette), a balsamic veggie sandwich, chili rice, pasta, and hot drinks with soy - plus baked goods which vary but usually include brownies, chocolate cupcakes, and cinnamon rolls (all vegan!). Lingua is one of my favourite cafes in Osaka to hang out for an entire afternoon doing computer work, and it's also great for families or for grabbing a quick bite.

Pros: Nice atmosphere with wifi, Close to the station, More and more vegan options!

Cons: Not fully vegan yet ;)
