The Urban Garden
The Urban Garden is one of Vilnius's best-loved brunch destinations, a relaxed café at J. Basanavičiaus g. 3 in the city centre, an easy walk from the Old Town. It earns rave reviews for delicious, healthy vegetarian and vegan cooking served in generous portions, and for an interior so warm and green that regulars often describe the mood as a 'Bali vibe.' The staff are consistently singled out as friendly and welcoming.
The menu is entirely vegetarian with a broad selection of vegan dishes, leaning toward fresh, filling, feel-good plates. Popular orders include avocado toast, shakshuka, curd pancakes, a hearty burrito and açaí or smoothie bowls. The menu is usually viewed via a QR code on your phone, so it helps to arrive with a charged battery.
It is an excellent choice for families thanks to the play corner, but its popularity is worth planning around: the café can get crowded and loud at weekends, and service may slow at peak times, so booking ahead is wise. As a working venue, hours and dishes can change, so check before a special trip. You will also find The Urban Garden in our Eat & Drink directory.
