Bistro Árbol – Puerto del Carmen

Run by the kookiest Dutch lady, with a huge passion for vegan food. She was serving all by herself waiting on 5 tables. That was impressive partly because there was no noticeable wait between tables. The only bad thing about the restaurant is that it is a little hard to find. As it is tucked away inside a horseshoe complex. But it is so worth it. Wifey and I aren’t even vegetarians, but if the lack of meat puts you off, well let me just say you have missed a real treat. 10 times better than Linda McCartneys sausages. (Sorry Linda) Of course going in I was a little apprehensive as it’s often nowhere near as good or filling, but it was happy proven wrong. Every course was impressive and delicious, which I would happily eat again. So the first bonus was the huge choices of Belgium and European? regional beers. I went for the Orval and I really loved the citrus flavour, with a hint of banana, which was surprisingly nice. The Wifey tried the Kola, again not bad. The plates are to share, so I Ordered the Carbonara, which I was interested to see how they would make vegan. Turns out this was a misspelling, it was a carbonnade which is a Belgium stew. I wasn’t disappointed it was a mild sweet pickle flavor with potatos serves with Belgium fries. The burger was really impressive, being filling and delicious at the same time. Not as good as Wagyu meat, but slightly better than mince, which was very surprising. Buddha ÁRBOWL which was delicious chickpea goodness scooped up on a breaded finger. Often overlooked but could eat that everyday. Even the cappuccino was delicious, and 10/10 for not using whippy cream like some of the other places. Of course this was vegan as well, using oat milk (I think, but can’t remember) either way it was one of the best on the trip. I would highly recommend this place. Even if eating vegan is not your thing. I will say most that eat here are so impressed that they will come back, and wifey and I happily include ourselves in that group. You won’t be disappointed…

Como turistas nos gusta leer las reseñas de los restaurantes veganos que hay en el lugar de destino. Por lo que vamos a dar información sobre los aspectos que nosotros valoramos. Localización: ambiente muy acogedor, con varios locales alrededor por lo que hace que sea una zona con mucha vida. Para aparcar puede ser más complicado pero la parte buena es que luego puedes llegar paseando por el paseo marítimo. Opciones veganas y sin gluten: hubo varias opciones, bastantes si tenemos en cuenta que la carta es un pelín reducida en comparación a otros sitios, aunque añaden platos fuera de carta. Actitud del personal: en este caso destacar la amabilidad y familiaridad que consiguen con su trato tan cercano y siempre con una sonrisa en la cara. La comida: en este caso nos pedimos el buddha arbowl, un risotto fuera de carta y un helado de pistacho con chocolate. Servicio rápido y comida muy rica, destacando el postre, el cual nos dejó con ganas de repetir. Relación calidad/precio: teniendo en cuenta la zona donde se encuentra y la calidad de los alimentos, es razonable. Finalmente quería mencionar que el lugar tiene una carta de cervezas belgas, como oportunidad para probar alguna y música con vinilos ( puede que haya venta de algunos si no entendimos mal).

Un gran lugar para veganos en la zona. Comimos platos muy ricos y algunos otros que no nos resultaron muy especiales. De entrantes pedimos babaganoush que estaba muy rico, pero era poca cantidad. Comimos sopa de calabaza Thai que era de los platos del día y muy ricos, por el precio esperábamos también que sea más cantidad. El couscous (también plato del día) llevaba poco couscous y muchas verduras. Era un plato rico. Los portobello con chimichurri son un plato excelente y delicioso, pero también creo que por el precio debería traer más portobello. Las mini hamburguesas estaban muy ricas de sabor y las papas ayudan a llenar. En general, comida muy sabrosa, personal amable y el lugar muy bonito con la única contra de sus precios elevados para el tamaño de las porciones.

Quite a rustic restaurant. Hard seats, plastic tables and chairs, paper napkins and a lack of take cloths. The food is really about as good as vegan gets, as a meat eater I’d still go back. Their service is excellent, if hurried due to the lack of staff.

I’ve eaten here several times, and the quality of the food is always high. But tonight’s special (oven baked aubergine) was one of the best vegan meals I’ve ever had. Highly recommend checking out this hidden gem, whether or not you stick to a plant-based diet

Great vegan food in a central, but quiet and cozy area of Puerto del Carmen. Charming service, awesome food, the best food we had during our trip to Lanzarote.

Comida rica y menú variado con productos locales y opciones sin gluten, servicio rápido y amable. Ambiente muy vintage y música de vinilo estilo jazz que te absorbe del jolgorio de otras terrazas. Recomendable.

Incredible food! Run by a very talented Belgian couple who make the best Belgium style frites. They also have a big selection of Belgium specialty beers and all the food was amazing. We went back twice because we wanted to make sure we tried everything on the menu. We can honestly say that everything is delicious so no bad choices, but our personal faves were the trio of dips (especially the cheese dip!) and pakoras. We have considered returning to Lanzarote just to eat here again. Recommend!
