Really beautiful place with plants and delicious food. I ordered mushroom tacos and they were so incredibly tasty that I ended up ordering one more portion

Really great vibes here. The staff are super friendly and helpful. The lentil burger was yummy, as was the almond vegan cheese. I got the sweet potato fries, which I think were baked instead of fried, so they were a bit dry and chewy, but everything else was good. My partner really enjoyed his sirloin burger. The pastries are quite nice as well.

I got the ravioli and it was delicious. My husband got a chicken sandwich and it was very good. The portions were good sized and the service was excellent.

Damn, this is by far the best vegan restaurant I’ve been to and the best food so far in Mexico. The place has it all too, chill music and nice staff, cosy interiors and atmosphere. I’d really recommend the the Azteka soup and the Verde sandwich. Tastiest sandwich I’ve ever had, and I went back the next day to eat it again. It was that good.

We had a couple of different sandwiches, the sweet potato fries and smoothies, everything was amazing we loved the flavours and their menu is great if you're vegetarian, vegan or if you eat meat. Lovely place with a beautiful and relaxed atmosphere we would definitely recommend it.

Very tasty vegan food!!!We were passing Puebla and found this place. It was so good that on the way back we stopped here again. It’s a family business and you get treated well here. Fist day we had the breakfast that was available till 2pm. The next day we arrived later and we ordered from the “dinner” menu which is available after 2pm. We also had potato chees sticks and their sweet breads. We loved everything. Update came for more tasty dishes. Like cheese sandwiches, fruit bowl,..

My favorite restaurant in Cholula! Alejandro was an amazing server, and the food is great. The chickpea burger and salads are delicious. We were also able to bring our dog. I definitely recommend La Colmena for awesome vegetarian and vegan food.

I'm a vegetarian but tend to shy away from vegetarian restaurants, usually finding the food bland. But what a difference at La Colmena—really delicious food, beautifully presented. Be aware that the portions tend to be large. We ordered the falafel appetizer, portobello sandwich and tacos. Fortunately, the food arrived at the same time. We saved the falafel for the next day's lunch. I highly recommend this restaurant. Just to clear up an error—La Colmena isn't strictly vegetarian, so if you're a meat eater, you should go. We've only gone for dinner so far but are heading back to check out their breakfasts.
