Fantastic food

We walked past this a few times and were even in the museum beside it but that was probably before it was open. Though there wasn't an obvious sign that I could see adn Chania is a bit of a maze. The food was amazing, vegan meatballs in tomato sauce, falafel and little potato cakes. Home cooked food with amazing flavours. Nice to sit in the open air in a bit of shade too.The best vegan food I had on Crete that wasn't briam or chips. Very nice staff too. I will go again and have a main next time. Seemed quite popular too.

Pros: Great food, Great staff, Lovely location

Cons: a bit hard to find

a beautiful spot with a sea view

Absolutely delicious food, friendly service, and a stunning sea view!
This restaurant is the perfect place to enjoy traditional Greek dishes in a relaxed and beautiful setting. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, and everything we ordered was full of flavor. Highly recommended if you’re looking for an authentic Greek experience by the sea.

A Marvellous Meal!

The food here is fantastic - this quaint restaurant-café is tucked away behind the main port at Chania, but if you're outside you'll get ocean views! The restaurant is airy, and in good weather it is beyond a delight to enjoy a meal under the sun and in the cool ocean breeze.

The food here is Greek-styled and home-made. The owner is a dedicated woman and it shows. Lovely service and delicious plant-based food! There really isn't much pure Vegan food around Chania - but you the food is so good here I think you'd be happy to eat three meals a day!

We highly recommend this place - and as always are grateful to locate a purely Vegan eatery, particularly in a place where Vegan-friendly food is scarce.

Pros: Location, Delicious Food

Everything outstanding

What a chilled little place, right by the water and old town centre, but tucked away from the crowds. Very friendly staff and a huge variety on the menu - we had to keep coming back - most days - to get through what we could, it was all so delicious!

Pros: Chocolate Panna Cotta, That mushroom dish

Excellent meal

A lovely spot, we had a nice view at sunset. Very friendly staff. We particularly liked the Greek-style “eatballs” and moussaka which were both excellent. The risotto was fine but the portion was too big for us so it felt a bit samey by the end. The baklava for dessert was delicious and a very generous portion. We also liked the house white wine which was very reasonably priced.

Pros: Tasty food, Generous portions, Reasonable prices

Cons: Not so keen on the risotto

Simply Awesome

I can't say enough!
In a perfect spot with amazing sunsets my wife and I were greeted with smiles and treated like royalty.

The food was very well priced and the taste was AMAZING!

The entire menu is vegan but non vegans would definitely find something here they would enjoy.

Lots of traditional Greek dishes but made vegan. We are here many times and didn't find anything negative. The mousaka, the meatballs, the risotto, the incredible baklava, the mushroom dish... everything. (Although we didn't try the chili non carne)... you won't regret a trip here!

Ohhh... definitely try the carrot lox!!!

Pros: Taste, Variety, Dessert

Cons: None, It's not in my town, Nothing bad

Elevated Pulse

The flavorful Greek Style Eatballs were served in a traditional tomato sauce. The fresh Summer Quinoa Salad included quinoa, tomatoes, chickpeas, corn, bell peppers, and carrots and topped with a thick dressing. The slightly spicy Chilli Non Carne included organic sunflower meat, beans, tomatoes, peppers, rice, and herbs. The sweet Baklava was made of flaky filo pastry and nuts and served with vegan cream. Everything was excellent.

Best vegan place in Greece

Amazing place. Wonderful, unique, flavorful, healthy meals! We plan on going back again before we leave! We got a bunch of starters; asparagus, hummus and feta dips, 2 types of “meat” balls made with veggies and legumes, and lox on a sesame bagel. Everything was wonderful and great location by the water.

Amazing food

We went twice during our stay in Chania, and both times were fantastic. Super great service and delicious food. The owner is very sweet and accomodating, offering that we could come back another time to pay as the card machine wasn't working on this day. Creative use of vegetables and just really well-made food.

The highlight for me was the moussaka, which had lovely soft aubergine, potato, lentil-bulgur wheat meat, and a thick layer of bechamel 😋
Can't recommend enough!

Tappa imperdibile

Se andate a Creta, fare tappa a Pulse è un dovere per il palato. Piatti ottimi e servizio impeccabile. Un ottimo ristorante vegano che stupirà anche chi vegano non è.. Consigliatissimo!

Pros: Piatti semplici e gustosi, Servizio, Posizione
