MENU FOOD | Veda House

Our cuisine is lacto-vegetarian and consistent with the principles of the
ancient Indian wisdom Ayurveda. Yet this is not Indian food. No eggs, onion, garlic or mushrooms. All the meals are perfectly balanced in their constitution and spices, baked with love and garnished with positive thoughts. We prepare your food when you order it, cooking it on real fire, no microwave. Please allow enough time for us to do everything nicely. And is this not the perfect opportunity to try some new tea?

Visited this place last night, all i can say is that’s one of the best service i’ve ever gotten, the waitress treated us so nicely, she was very kind and lovely. The atmosphere was so cozy i will definitely be coming back soon! The tea menu was fascinating, im not a big tea lover but even i couldn’t choose one tea from all the different and interesting options!! Overall, such a cute and unique place, not going to lie i want to gatekeep it 😆

I visited Veda House with my partner and we had such a wonderful experience. The food was absolutely delicious, full of rich and vibrant flavors. They also offer a huge variety of unique teas, which makes the place extra special. The service was outstanding – Nick, who took care of us, was amazing! He patiently explained each type of tea, what it contains, and how it’s prepared. The atmosphere is calm and serene, making it the perfect spot to relax and enjoy a great meal. Highly recommended!

One of the best restaurants in town. An exceptional selection of tea from all around the world with written explanation about every sort.
The food is tasty, spices are very well balanced. Ice-cream made from tea is amazing!
The atmosphere is great with relaxed music, the place is quiet.
In the end it’s like going out from a yoga class with a full stomach 😉

Veda House is an absolute gem for tea lovers in the heart of Sofia. The moment you walk in, you’re transported into a peaceful sanctuary filled with the calming scent of herbal teas and natural wood interiors. Their tea selection is exceptional – thoughtfully curated, organic, and beautifully presented. I especially loved the Ayurvedic blends and the homemade vegan desserts that perfectly complemented the experience.
The staff are knowledgeable and helpful . Whether you’re looking for a quiet spot to work, relax, or meet friends, Veda House strikes the perfect balance between cozy and inspiring.
If you just want to by tea for home-like the herbs better make an online order,they are pretty busy.

What a nice place! Variety of tea and amazing food. Loved it! And also the personnel was super friendly and explained and advised us what to take. Highly recommended if you are in the area.

The food is very tasteful and would get 5 Stars. Sadly the portions, as well the food as for the tea, are for babies or dwars. 3 Main dishes equals one normal main dish in other restaurants. Also the ice machine is quite annoying in the dining area. So: if you're looking for some food inspiration and want an snack they are great. But if your hungry better go to another place.

Good food and a wide selection of tea. Sadly the service is always slow but that's OK since time passes differently with a nice cup of tea and some good company. There is an upstairs seating with comfy cushions.

Big selection of teas, tasty main courses and salads (I specifically tried beet root salad - 5/5, Russian salad - 4/5, and potato curry - 4/5). Overall it's a very good experience. You cannot pay with a card there, unfortunately. The service was quick and polite.

07:54 17 Oct 20

The tea selection is wonderful, it's very unlikely for you to find tea you don't like. The prices are slightly higher than other places I've been to, but still worth. Staff is very sweet. They serve mostly vegan and vegetarian dishes with an Indian twist. At summer time their ice cream options are different and quite yummy. There is a small room that goes slightly beneath ground level and I always sit there. Visit this place for a wonderful and very chill and cozy experience.
Would recommend 9/10

My absolute favorite place, great food, great drinks, vegan and reasonably-priced. Super cosy and atmospheric, and the staff is always extra nice. The music is soft and relaxing, it's an overall great place to work, hang out with friends or relax with one of the many books they've got!

Great atmosphere and great food. Tea selection and quality is a-ma-zing. Veda house quickly became one of my favorite places in Sofia.

I would recommend the pancake with basil! It might seem like a small weight in grammes, but, believe me, it is nutritious enough. The coconut bonbons weren’t bad either.

Dimitar Atanasov

12:04 04 Mar 20

Great variety of teas. Indian meditative atmosphere. Tasty vegan and vegetarian dishes. Quiet and calm place but a bit over with typical indian candlesticks aromas.

Maria Ilieva

12:15 02 Mar 20

An amazing quiet chill place where you can spend enormous amount of time. The staff is just wonderful, they are always there to answer all your questions. You can pick from almost 100.types of tea or if you're not a tea lover there are some refreshing drinks for everyone. One of the best places in Sofia.

Veda house is a realy nice place to eat or chat with friends if you are fan of yoga philosophy and vegetarian food. There you will find great variety of tea, tasty dishes and desserts all made in their kitchen. Home made icecream and raw bonbons could be delicious finish of your meal there. Straws are metal, tables are 2 types standard and low, and there are zones without shoes where you could sit on puffs or almost on the floor. It is a house with 2 floors made like a restaurant. There you could also buy tea, cups and so on for yourself or for a present.

07:24 15 Feb 20

The atmosphere is cozy, reminded us of Asia. The tea is great and there is a large variety! Food was okay. I think they could have done a better job. We had the vegetable "kufteta", Russian Salad and the cheesy potatoes. Not the best food I have had but the tea and the cozy tables/bean chairs made up for it.

Чудесно място за срещи, хубав чай и вегетариански специалитети. Има малки зали на второ ниво, подходящи за групи. В едната от тях се ходи по чорапи 🙂 Препоръчвам пикантните елдени кюфтенца и почти всички чайове. Чайовете меден сладкиш и тези с джинджифил са ми любими.

На рождения ден на дъщеря ми по телефона обещаха да нарежат веган торта, внесена отвън, срещу 30 лева (по телефона!), а в момента, в който децата дойдоха, отказаха с аргумента - " Ами ние се съгласихме, само защото никой не се навива за 30 лв.!" Разочарованието беше пълно!

Boyan Aleksandrov

18:42 25 Jan 20

Became one of my favourite place to spend 2, 4, or even 6+ hours drinking good tea and lying on comfortable cushions on the floor.

За чая не мога да дам мнение, защото чаках между 15-20 мин за да ми вземат поръпката и си тръгнах.

Николай Вакареев

21:47 10 Dec 19

I absolutely loved the place, amazing tea variety and delicious food inspired by the ancient Ayurvedic manuscripts.

The staff was lovely and charming with wide smiles on their faces even in the intense typhoon of work they had!

The atmosphere is beyond words. It immediately transports you to South-East Asia and at the same time it has little hidden Easter-eggs from different cultures and religions.

Overall, a must see little piece of Paradise located in the center of Sofia, Bulgaria!!!

Beautiful place to have amice time over a cup of tea or have a healthy vegetarian dish. There is No shoes area, very cosy and comfy to relax and feel like you are at home:) Only downside is that the quality of tea is not evolving. That's why the service as a whole for me would be 4stars...

Wild Lovely World

11:19 07 Oct 19

Food - excellent. Complete vegetarian and vegan options. I had the pasta Verde. Portion size was enough. Very tasty. Nice presentation. Came quickly. Cooked fresh.

Service - staff very friendly. Can speak English. English menu available. If you sit upstairs, you need to ring the bell to get service. Can offer good recommendations and advice on the food and tea.

Atmosphere - very cosy. Seating upstairs is without shoes, sitting on the floor, Turkish lamps, pillows. Seating downstairs is at tables, tiled floor. Calm and peacefully decorated.

Tea - wide selection of tea. We had the Bulgarian sunrise tea. It was very good. Came in a small pot, enough for 1-1.5 cups each for 2 people.

14:02 04 Oct 19

It's doesn't look much on the outside, but don't be put off by this. It's very reasonably priced, they speak great English, and have a menu translated. The food was excellent, the best part of our experience was the array of tea's we got to have throughout the dinner. If your a veggie or just love a cosy place to eat this is a must see!

Sara

13:50 19 Sep 19

Was pleasantly surprised at how good the food and drinks were. They have gluten free options but also catered to make a dish with gluten without it for me. Also great for those following the FODMAP diet as they cook without garlic and onion. Great service also.

Ana Assuncao

17:12 17 Sep 19

Nice tea house with vegan and vegetarian options. There is an outside area and staff is very friendly. I ate cheese potatoes and was really good. I also try reiki tea and it was really tasty. The service is fast and the area is clean.
