Great Food and Drinks but Service Needs Improvement

Tiny Rebels is a fantastic place where we visited twice for lunch and brunch. The food is amazing, the coffee is good, and the smoothies are excellent, everything is just perfect.

However, the service left a lot to be desired. When you walk in, you are mostly ignored, even though staff are working just 30 cm away preparing coffee or food. About three out of four employees completely ignored us. When we asked for a menu, one staff member just pointed to a pile of menus instead of handing one over. This is not a self-service place, so that was disappointing.

The food makes up for a lot, but it would be perfect if the service was better. The second time we came, it was much quieter but the staff still ignored us. Eventually, we received a menu but no one came back to take our order. We had to go to the counter to ask if we could order.

A bearded man came to our table, seemingly annoyed and not really engaged. It’s a shame because it’s a great spot with fresh, tasty, and unique dishes. If the staff were a bit friendlier and more welcoming, this would be a wonderful place. Unfortunately, I can’t rate it higher because of the service experience.

all-vegan café in Iraklio

We were trying to visit every fully vegan place (there aren't too many) during our first stay in Crete, so we went here for brunch. Found a table and were greeted friendly. We had sweet pancakes, a tofu sandwich, lemonade and iced matcha. To me, the pancakes could use some (nut) crunch and a little less date aroma, the matcha would have been a ruler with a hint of spice.
When ordering, the young lady from staff almost apologized that they'd only use plant milk here. We assured that this was exactly our thing. Obviously they'd had encounters with omni tourists complaining about...

Summary: All was good, they could excel on the flavours a bit more. And act more confidently, veganism is nothing to apologize for :-)

Cute place, friendly staff, good food

Made a couple of visits to this cute little find. Really good vibe and all the food we had was delicious - baguettes, pancakes, burger, cakes and juices (yes, all that on just two visits haha!) Such a nice team, well worth dropping in.

Surprise find

Absolutely loved this cafe, found it by accident on our way somewhere else and turned out much nicer!
Lots of light meals and really good coffee! We had the sandwich and some pancakes and would 100% recommend, it is slightly small but has upstairs and outside seating

Pros: Frendly, Good quality , Tasty

Cons: Slightly small

Favorite in Heraklion

I was in Heraklion 2 days and been here 3 times!!! 💚💚💚
The food is very tasty!! I liked the scrambled eggs and oh my guac toasts, and specially loved the pancakes with hazelnut praline 🤤 The orange juice is super fresh and tasty as well.
Everyone working here was very pleasant and helpful.

The menu includes protein serving per dish, which is helpful when you trying to keep up with balanced meals during a trip.

Pros: Tasty food, Kind attendants, All vegan 🌱

The cacao drinks are fab!

We had lunch at Tiny Rebels today. It’s a quirky cafe with very friendly and helpful staff. The Cretan salad and burger were tasty and wholesome and I loved the pure cacao drink 🥰
Seating inside and outside- seems to be a favourite of local studious students!

Pros: Delicious salad, Good brunch selection , Loved the cacao drink (0 added sugar)

Rebel Rations

The Scrambled eggz open toast was multi-grain bread topped with firm tofu, fresh tomatoes, and Cretan mountain herbs. It had a subtle, but satisfying flavor. The Pancakes were served with peanut butter caramel, homemade hazelnut praline, banana slices, mixed berries, and shredded coconut. The blackberries were still slightly frozen, but everything else was delicious.

Pros: all vegan, ambience, customer service

Nice & Safe Space

Good variety of food including savory dishes. Guac toast tasted a bit off, scrambled egg toast was better than anticipated but also not overwhelmingly delicious.

Pros: free water, allergy friendly, lgbtqia+ friendly

Hello there! Thanks for commenting! We appreciate the time spent on this comment but we would like to say that we do not use nutella. our chocolate spread is made from the best quality of medjool dates, fine cocoa powder and the best hazelnut Butter in Greece, which has great taste award. We use 90% organic products, plus all the work that is done in the kitchen just only from one person. so i think these facts can explain the "price". Thanks again for visiting 💕🌷

Food is really good!

We got food from here on a Monday when the other vegan places were closed. They have a surprising number of food options, it’s much more than a coffee shop.

The burger, simple sandwich (smoked tofu, violife, mayo), pasta salad, and Cretan salad were all great.

(I didn’t try the coffee but it looked really good.)
