CREATIVA by Lola Canela in Ingolstadt

It's a real shame that it has to close at the end of September... it's really nice here :-(

We discovered the restaurant by chance while walking, and the words "plant-based" convinced us. We didn't have to worry about whether it was vegan or not, and they also have gluten-free options. The ambiance is beautiful—beautiful walls, a warm atmosphere, candles lit everywhere, fairy lights, and coordinated interior design. Add to that the delicious food paired with attentive service. We had a piece of cake, a cappuccino, and the chipotle potatoes. So delicious! Definitely worth a visit. Thank you for the lovely time with you! All the best🫶🏻

Very tasty! Unfortunately, my noodles were already cold, but they were still delicious. The atmosphere is beautiful!

Rating: Creativa by Lola Canela Visit and Waiting Times We were booked with a group of five. The first two dishes were served an hour later. The remaining three dishes followed another 20 minutes later. Food Quality All dishes were only lukewarm and disappointing in taste. The guacamole with tortilla chips was so hard and dry that even rusks seemed softer. Service Experience When we asked about the delayed delivery and the inedible food, we received only a snarky response in English: "That's just how it is." Such a rude attitude towards guests is unacceptable and only worsens the impression. Overall Conclusion Despite the announced closing date at the end of September, we had expected a solid final performance. Instead, we experienced our worst restaurant visit ever – a combination of long wait times, inedible food, and unprofessional service. Unfortunately, we cannot recommend Creativa by Lola Canela.

Disappointment all around – unfortunately, no enjoyment: I was looking forward to a pleasant evening, but this restaurant, Creativa by Lola Canela in Ingolstadt, completely disappointed me. A disappointment in terms of taste: The dishes seemed ambitious on the menu, but what ultimately ended up on the plate was sobering. The appetizer was uninspiring and bland, the main course overseasoned. No refinement? None at all. Service – inattentive and unfriendly: The waitress made us wait a long time. After the tortillas served with our guacamole were so hard they were inedible, and we politely asked for others instead, we received the brusque reply that this was how it should be… after all, we had waited over an hour for our food, after some guests who had been seated after us had already been served their food. Value for money – completely excessive: The prices were simply outrageous for the quality of the food and the poor service. Even simple dishes were overpriced. Conclusion: When I learned in April that Creativa would be closing at the end of September 2025, I was very sad, as I had a very good impression of the food, drinks, and service offered there during my first visit there in January 2025, which unfortunately turned into the opposite with this last visit. A visit to a restaurant should be a pleasure – here it was more of a test of patience. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this restaurant.

A very special location with exceptional cakes. The prices are a bit on the high side, but if you want to treat yourself in a wonderful and peaceful atmosphere, this is the place to be!

Very tasty vegan dishes. I'd love to come back.

The food was excellent, and so was the service! I was thrilled!

The food is delicious, but very expensive! The service is very slow and doesn't speak German… I find it strange that people don't understand simple orders in German.

Unfortunately, the wait was very long. Both while waiting for our order and for the first waiter to arrive. The atmosphere was actually very nice. I felt almost thirsty in this weather. The waitress was ultimately nice and helpful. Addendum: We asked at the counter twice because we were unsure whether it was self-service or table service.

Nice location and the food looked good. We only had drinks though.

Insane menu of incredibly tasting fully vegan food! Service was slow but the food made up for it all. Highly recommend!

The food and service were truly excellent! The ambiance is also very nice and peaceful. Our only criticism: We found the food portion a bit too small. It could have been a bit larger.

Very creative vegetarian dishes. Always worth a visit for those who want to try something new.

In the past, their desserts were not so delicious. They make delicious cakes now. The team is super friendly. It's a place I'm sad to see close. I hope they open a new cafe in Ingolstadt. Tips: Mango, blueberry and lemon cheesecake are just must-try 😉

The best vegan food in the region

We had coffee at CREATIVA today. The two male waitresses were super nice and funny. My dog ​​was also brought an extra bowl of water 😍 The cakes and tarts are really expensive (€6-7 per piece), but also really tasty. We'll be back 😊

I’m kind of blinded by the delicious vegan mango cake.The prices are reasonable for the exceptional quality of homemade food. And it also should be said that the restaurant is in a nice area with a cosy decor that gives you a friendly, local and inviting vibe. Definitely will come back to find yourself in heaven for a couple of hours.

The food is really tasty, the atmosphere is very nice and the service is very friendly. I liked it very much. .

The best restaurant/café I've ever been to. There is a great selection of healthy, balanced and completely vegan dishes, drinks and cakes. Come here at least weekly!!

I usually don't write reviews, but I'll make an exception for creativa! In my opinion it is the best restaurant Ingolstadt has to offer. The great cozy atmosphere, the wonderful beer garden, the friendly and attentive service, but above all of course the food! I've had various dishes, from breakfast to cake to dinner - there wasn't a single dish that didn't completely blow me away in terms of taste! Such great, unusual dishes where no one really misses meat! The cakes are to die for. Even if I'm completely full, I have to have a piece! Absolute recommendation!!

The food is absolutely delicious. The chipotle patatas were excellent, as were the grilled king oyster mushrooms with bean cream. The risotto balls were a bit too mildly seasoned for my taste, but the mayonnaise served with them was perfect. For dessert, I treated myself to a slice of brownie cake, which was very moist and chocolatey; however, for the price, the slice could have been a bit larger. The service and ambiance are great overall. However, the menu, which you have to share between two people, is very unwieldy, and our table was sticky.

The atmosphere inside is lovely, with a cute and sunny garden. We went there for coffee and cake, and every option looked delicious.

Creative food, quality, awareness.

Fantastic vegan food!! The cakes are also a dream. In summer you can sit in the beer garden. Inside you sit in old barrel vaults. Also great. It's not exactly cheap but really reasonable for the good quality. What I also really like is that it is always stated whether a dish is gluten-free or which sweetener was used.

The atmosphere in the vaults was very nice and the food was also exceptionally tasty and very inspiring. We also tried the cakes, they all come highly recommended.

A feast for the senses – a visit to Creativa Amid the culinary diversity of Ingolstadt, the vegan restaurant Creativa stands out with an impressive mix of creativity, craftsmanship and taste. Here, plant-based ingredients are not only processed, but reinvented - and with a sophistication that amazes even convinced meat eaters. Even the first bite reveals what's special: a harmonious composition of different textures, ranging from crispy to creamy, from tender to al dente. Each dish is a well-thought-out composition that plays with spices and flavors to create a true explosion of flavor. I was particularly impressed by ROASTED BRUSSEL SPROUTS - With fried grapes, dill and cashews, homemade tofu cream and sourdough bread Caper garlic dressing and TAHINI SWEET POTATOES Baked sweet potato with peanut sauce, tahini lemon sauce, Corn, pomegranate, parsley and peanuts. which impressed with a surprising depth and perfectly coordinated nuances. Every dish is also visually a work of art – lovingly prepared, colorful and inviting. The experience was perfectly rounded off that evening by live music from the band “The Mellow McGees”. The band managed to create a warm and inviting atmosphere with their sounds and the singer's great voice, which beautifully underlined the ambience of the restaurant. A combination of excellent cuisine and great music that made the evening unforgettable. For anyone looking for exceptional plant-based cuisine, Creativa is an absolute recommendation. This proves that vegan dishes are much more than an alternative - they are their own, fascinating world of taste, accompanied by an atmosphere that is simply right.

What an experience! We are absolutely thrilled with yesterday's visit! Top service, courteous and not intrusive, the food was incredibly creative, well prepared and very, very good. Danger!! Be sure to leave room for one of the brilliant cakes!!

The food there was incredibly tasty, and the atmosphere and ambience in general was wonderful. My only criticism is the cake prices (€6.90 for 1 piece of cake) and our waiter was too pushy for me personally and made the same joke to all the guests, but of course that's just a personal preference.

Fantastic restaurant in Ingolstadt in the middle of the park. We're not actually vegans but the food also convinces the classic steak eater :-) After we were here, we came back for breakfast the next day and can fully recommend the restaurant. Great atmosphere and really friendly staff. If you are in Ingolstadt, a visit to Creativa is a must.

The food is incredibly good. Varied, creative and very tasty. The young ladies who served us were charming and attentive. The ambience is beautiful… We would love to come back! This wonderful restaurant is truly an asset to the city. We hope that this fantastic location will be filled with this Mexican creativity for a very long time 🥰

Wow! Great food, great location! We felt very comfortable. The food is incredibly tasty and also completely different cuisine than in the rest of Ingolstadt. Bravo keep it up 👍

An unforgettable evening! We were greeted by the beautiful and stylish interior of the restaurant. Rodrigo was probably the most attentive and friendly catering employee I have ever been served by. Perfect food and drink recommendations! If you take a look at the map you will also understand the name CREATIVA. Here, ingredients are combined and works of art are created that are only known from starred cuisine. All in all a perfect evening. Recommendation for every future guest: Listen to Rodrigo, he knows what you will like. hasta la próxima, CREATIVA

Vegan food at its finest, served in old walls, which is enhanced by various accessories and invites you to linger.

Great new vegan dishes and very tasty!! A great meal in a wonderful atmosphere!! We'll be back

The dishes were exceptionally good, you don't miss any meat here.

Really delicious, 100% vegan dishes, unusually well seasoned!

You can't want more here. The staff is super friendly and the atmosphere is nice and cozy. The highlight was still the food! We recommend 2 small and one large portion for 2 people, so you can share and enjoy the delicious taste :) The cake is also worth it 👌

I had dinner at Creative with my wife last night. Not only is it a very good restaurant, it was a special wow moment in a long time! The service is super friendly and competent, gives personal recommendations and strives to ensure the well-being of the guests. The food came very quickly, perfectly timed (starter before main course with enough time between them) and was a real treat. Perfect sharing meal for couples or groups. The atmosphere in Creative is very cozy and stylishly furnished. Everything very clean. All in all, we found a new top address in Ingolstadt last night and will definitely come back. Maybe. yes our new favorite restaurant!

The food was great. I have never been served so kindly. Clear recommendation :)

A really great place! The food is simply great and varied, the staff is super friendly and always in a good mood and the ambience is simply fantastic! I always enjoy coming here

"The food at Creativa was brilliant and inspiring - the combination of the dishes was extraordinary and really something special. The wait staff were super friendly and attentive. An all-round successful evening that we enjoyed very much. We will definitely be back!"

What a wonderful evening at Creativa! You come in and are greeted warmly and you feel comfortable right from the start! The food is super delicious - a real taste experience! The waitresses are simply great and attentive! I can really recommend all of the vegan dishes. We had 4 main courses and 2 starters and shared everything as recommended by the service. Every dish tasted really good. The cakes are also just great.

It was super nice! The food is top class and the people are super friendly!

Excellent fresh food, the cake is great and the staff are friendly and helpful. We'll definitely be back. Absolute recommendation

What a wonderful evening at Creativa! The food is super delicious! 🤤 The atmosphere is cozy and inviting. And the service is simply very attentive! I can really recommend all of the vegan dishes. Here we cook with love and you can taste that in every dish. 🥰 The cakes are also just great. Then one had to be taken home with me. ☺️

We had a great time here. The location is really special. The service was very friendly and accommodating and had some great suggestions for us to try (great advice). Finally, the food was amazing.

Yesterday I took part in Carmen's vegan and gluten-free baking workshop. It was 4 wonderful hours in good company and everything was prepared with great attention to detail. First we baked and then everything was beautifully decorated. I felt very comfortable with Carmen and her team and I can only warmly recommend the workshop and the restaurant.

We were there for coffee and cake on a Saturday afternoon in November 2024. It wasn't empty, but there were plenty of free tables. You immediately felt at home, the furnishings are loving but not exaggerated or superior. The staff was very friendly and entertaining, gave recommendations, etc. The drinks and dishes were unusual and everything we had was very tasty. The shop is priced a bit higher: a piece of cake/tart (very expensive) costs €6.90. A beer between €4.50 and €5.50. Can definitely recommend Creativa and will try their main dishes soon.

Absolutely love the place and the food there! A little pricy but worth it 🙂

Food was very good. However, the price is high. Staff very friendly, atmosphere very pleasant.

While we were passing through we looked for a vegan restaurant and I would have preferred to stay there. The location is great, it's relaxed and quiet and beautiful. The food (changing menu) was fresh, tasty, perfectly seasoned and balanced. The menu is clear, but I would have liked to try everything. The service was super friendly. The prices are absolutely fine. We also took some cake with us and the strawberry-chilli cake in particular was incredibly tasty, I've never eaten anything like it before and I was absolutely thrilled.

Delicious and unusual food, very, very good cake, great location. We'd love to come back

Super nice and humorous waiter, had a large group of 12 p. can enjoy a cozy Mexican brunch.

Cozy atmosphere, friendly and professional staff especially Roderigo

It's so delicious and friendly, and the atmosphere is so nice that it's the perfect place for a date! I came for a walk in the park and I'm glad I found a nice place :)

We were warmly welcomed and had delicious food, which was very nicely prepared. We'd love to come back.

A pretty restaurant in an old city wall on the edge of Ingolstadt's Klenzepark. With a unique concept and very good service, this impresses in every respect. For this restaurant it is worth being open to new things and following the recommendations of the waitress Rodrigo!

Food, ambience and service were great! The two of us shared three dishes. We took Rodrigo's recommendation at the beginning and were thrilled. Thank you for the delicious evening.

The location is great, service is nice and friendly. The rest (cake) wasn't really my thing and was also expensive in my opinion. But that doesn't mean that others like it more It's just vegan

Very great cakes made from alternative ingredients and homemade, with good service and a unique ambience. Gladly again

Cozy atmosphere with great attention to detail. Extremely delicious non-alcoholic cocktails are recommended. To eat, the enchiladas topped everything. With the generous portion of sauce, it's worth adding a piece of bread.

Whether it's for coffee, dinner or a private party... we always go home with a smile :) the food, the ambience, the people in front of and behind the counter... everything is magical :) if you're looking for something special, Creativa is one absolute recommendation 😍

Super nice vaulted cellar, 1A food and the service was great. Thanks Rodrigo for the cool evening!

With Rodrigo the evening is saved! 🤩

Been there for the first time. The atmosphere is very cozy and nice, the service is super friendly, helpful and ready to advise customers, cocktails (especially la sangría de la casa) and food (including dessert_ chipotle pumpkin) are great! We'd love to come by again

Had a really nice first experience at CREATIVA with a piece of cake and a cappuccino. The plant based concept is mega and the location is also beautiful. The cakes are made from good ingredients and are no bake cakes 🫶🏻 We were warmly welcomed and advised. I've already reserved a table to try out the evening menu :) See you soon 🕺

Magical vegan restaurant with exceptional dishes. The menu is varied and the food is very tasty. The service was outstanding – friendly, attentive and warm. The atmosphere in the beautiful brick vault gives the restaurant a special flair. Highly recommended!

Very tasty vegan food of the highest quality.

Very tasty food, friendly service and nice ambience. For truly creative dishes. If you want to know what really delicious vegan food tastes like, you have to go here. 😋

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟10 stars🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 For me the culinary discovery of the year! TOP in all areas! I'm in love with Creativa♡ The name says it all! Sooo creative dishes! Excellent, just as I love that as a passionate cook I am amazed and raved about. When I go out to eat, I don't want standard food, I want to be able to marvel at the culinary compositions. And the Creativa did that. But from the beginning. We had reserved, came in & were greeted so friendly, as if they had known us for a long time. There is such a pleasant, warm atmosphere there. Like coming home - so beautiful♡ Our drinks and food came quicker than expected. The choice wasn't that easy because everything sounds so delicious😄 The three of us first ordered 3 dishes + 2 more and shared them all, as recommended in the menu. Also great tip & super friendly😊 The spices, flavors, ingredients... everything is phenomenal! And also very healthy! Everything is purely plant-based and a lot is also gluten-free! Very progressive! It would be cool to know whether the ingredients are organic and which sugar alternatives are used in the cakes. The prices are on the higher side, but in my opinion, absolutely worth it! It's better to go out for a really good meal less often than here, rather than all the time and then just average food. So clear recommendation! Thank you Creativa for the lovely evening! Keep it up & see you soon😊🥰🦋🌷

Super delicious food, open and friendly staff and a great ambience. We were just passing through the city, ended up here by chance for dinner and didn't regret it for a second, sometimes you'll pay more for good food. We were particularly impressed by the grilled mushrooms. We would come back at any time!

It was an outstanding experience! Mint tea and cakes were great. Muchas gracias for the birthday song :)

The food and drinks were all great, but why no effort was made to remove a rotting rabbit that was ten meters from the beer garden is a no-go! We would have liked to drink something more, but the smell was too unpleasant for a long time.

This place has made me so happy! I met two absolutely amazing people, the owner and her brother, so friendly, heartful and nice. The location is just stunning and the vegan Mexican food is among the most delicious ones I have ever eaten. Yes, many people are right, it’s not the cheapest restaurant, but quality, service and the experience definitely justify it. Thank you so much and see you soon!

Like vacation! Thanks to Rodrigo super friendly and perfect drink recommendation!

Very unusual alcohol free cocktails (I tried hibiscus-grape, my husband took tamarind-something, both awesome). I also ordered strawberry tart/cake that turned out to be both fresh & spicy, very nice!

Very tasty, vegetarian or vegan dishes. Prices are somewhat high, but this is reflected in the quality of the food

A beautiful, vegan restaurant with a small, sophisticated menu. The invitation on the menu to share the dishes in order to experience the flavors is spot on and extraordinary. The service is very attentive and gives honest advice, both in terms of quantity and choice of dishes. The food arrived quickly, with additional empty plates to make sharing easier. The outdoor area has an inviting, slightly romantic atmosphere thanks to the lighting, placement and decoration. Even as a non-vegan, I am fully convinced and look forward to returning as soon as I am in the Ingolstadt area again and then hope to be able to take a closer look at the stylishly furnished indoor areas.

Best restaurant in Ingolstadt, delicious food

I've been to Vegan Fire several times now and got bowls twice for my yoga events. The food is always fresh and seasonal. This may also cost more. Only recommended.

Overall a complete failure: - Our reservation was messed up and we had to wait until a table became available - We had to wait an hour for the food - the food was way too spicy. My wife and my three year old son couldn't really eat much. - I felt bad all night because my stomach/digestion isn't used to spicy food. - The price is very competitive for the small portions - as a small compensation for the waiting time we at least got a piece of kitchen

The dishes are really tasty and extraordinary... But the prices are now simply too high and the portions are simply too small. The selection of cakes is great, the ingredients are high quality, but here too... the pieces of cake are far too small for the prices. The service is usually a bit scheduled and communication is sometimes a bit difficult.

The food was wonderful, fresh and prepared with love. Lola is a great hostess, very friendly service, we would love to come back.

Very tasty and creative food, prepared with love, in a beautiful, quiet atmosphere and very friendly service. Something completely different and Creativa enriches the gastronomy scene.

Beautifully prepared and well-seasoned dishes in a rustic, elegant ambience. Service attentive and very friendly.

What a discovery! Beautifully located in Klenzepark, this is a great addition to the Ingolstadt food scene. A small menu of delicious vegan options. In our group we got all but one of the starters and all mains. All the starters were really good, but the mains clearly took the crown, particularly the mushrooms and the grilled eggplant. Absolutely delicious! The cakes (also all vegan) were fantastic as well, particularly the „Ferrero“ chocolate cake. One piece will suffice for two, this is a bomb of a cake. So yummy! We will definitely be back!

Very nice atmosphere, very friendly and fast service, extremely delicious vegan food and cakes.

The food is very good, no question. The fact that the prices are extremely expensive is ok, but I also accept the quality. But I really don't understand why the portions have to be so tiny. Unfortunately, the service does not meet high standards. The staff is slow, not attentive and speaks little German (at least our waitress).

Prices and size of the portions are an absolute disgrace

Not exactly cheap; only available in English

Beautiful ambience, very nice service. The food looked and tasted very, very tasty!!

Best vegan restaurant in Regio 10! Following on insta is a must since they announce great special occasions on there regularly.

An architectural and, above all, culinary gem in Klenzepark and an absolute win for Ingolstadt! Special ones prepared with love and skill, especially A. Mexican dishes and divine cakes leave nothing to be desired and ensure Creativa's unique position in the city's gastronomic jungle. In addition, there is always cheerful, friendly service, and the boss is also pleasantly present. The culinary events offered at intervals always bring exciting variety. Absolute recommendation!

Super nice staff and really great food. Only recommended. The drinks are also very tasty

We were there last night and feasted our way through the entire menu. An absolute recommendation and enrichment for Ingolstadt!

Wow! Beautiful food in beautiful surroundings run by beautiful people! The food was absolutely amazing and there were so many quirky things to grab my attention around the really unique venue. The staff were so friendly! I am not a vegan so I was a little apprehensive but we tried lots of dishes and they were all delicious! 😋 The manager, Carman, even came out of the kitchen to welcome her English guests. Originating from Mexico, she provides a wide range for different palates & I believe her family are responsible for the pretty and quirky decorations dotted around the walls. The bar provides a great selection of drinks and the cakes look almost too good to eat but we did 😋 I would definitely recommend all Ingolstadt visitors to experience this delightful place.

The location itself of course has a great atmosphere and is beautifully decorated. Unfortunately the service was quite slow and the salad wasn't really a salad and the selection otherwise wasn't that big.

Unusual and unusual dishes. Very exciting, very good. Great selection of cakes.

Very friendly and accommodating. Food very tasty
