DELICIOUS FOOD.
WORLD-INSPIRED
We love the freshness of Southeast Asia and the smokiness of American Barbecue, the elegance of Far East Asia and the kick of South American Flavours. Some call it "Fusion". We prefer to let creativity flow.
We bring big flavors to plant-based food using technique and the best ingredients to make food that is both delicious and sustainable.
We keep our menu seasonal, mostly local, homemade and totally honest
And, YEAH, the beer is always cold

CURRENT MENU
DELICIOUS
We chase deliciousness by selecting the best ingredients, making mostly in-house or with selected producers we trust.
Technique also plays quite a role in our kitchen. We love to ferment, pickle, smoke, macerate, marinate, and test the limits of fresh produce against fire.
OUR MANIFESTO
FOREVER
Food must be sustainable. After all, it doesn't help to be delicious if we can't enjoy it for our lifetime.
That's why we chose to put the beautiful and vast world of veggies in the center of your plate.
That's why we keep it seasonal and as local as possible.
JOYFUL
Food should bring pleasure, comfort, and connection to our lives. A source of celebration, and social connection. Sharing good times with friends around food. Breaking bread together.
Friendship is the main ingredient in our creations.
"I simply wanna make delicious food, for everyone, just without the animal part" - Gustavo Bottino - Executive Chef
Before SOIL VEGAN CAFE, I had made a name for myself in the world of barbecue and meat. But over the past years, I got increasingly concerned about the environmental impact of what we eat, in particular, animal proteins. However, as someone who grew up around meat, I just wasn't willing to give up on tasty food.
Preparing plant-based meals at home was easy. But out on the streets, it was a completely different story. I quickly got tired of the all-too-similar alternatives available.
My business partner Remco and I racked our brains for a year to find a solution to this problem. We came up with SOIL VEGAN CAFE. A casual and friendly place where you can go for lunch or dinner or just for a happy hour and the food is fundamentally delicious, just without the animal part.
I am always on the lookout for people to join our team and help me make delicious plant-based food. If you think you got what it takes.
