Restaurants, cafés, sweet spots and vegan-friendly stays — hand-picked and personally checked by two vegans who actually live on the island.
Places we send our own friends to when they visit.
A couple of passionate vegans who call Crete home. We've been vegan for over 10 years, and it's not just a diet — it's a way of living. Our big family includes cats and a few little humans who keep life wonderfully chaotic and full of love.
We created this guide because we know how hard it can be to find great plant-based food while travelling. When friends and visitors kept asking us where to eat, where to stay, and how to navigate the island as a vegan, we realised there was a real gap — and decided to fill it ourselves. Everything we share is based on our own experience, because we believe you deserve honest recommendations from people who actually live here.
"Life is better when living with kindness."
