The food was so good. So many options. Most of the drinks and desserts are vegan as well ask because they may not be marked. It was so good we plan to go back

Lovely Ambience + Lovely Food = Lovely Combo - Edit
I’m thankful to my younger brother’s girlfriend for recommending Vegie Bar (along with Girls And Boys) in Fitzroy. Enjoyed the relaxing ambience, the nice service, golden chai lattes (pictured), gyozas, spring rolls and the pizza with the kale topping. Though I think the vegan cheese layer on the pizza could use a little more generosity to add the cheesiness and balance out the tartness of the kale and olives. I also wish that Vegie Bar can have a full vegan menu instead of offering a few non-vegan options like dairy on their menu as the non-vegan options are just unnecessary. In fact, I think Vegie Bar has the potential to go vegan as a similar business in Malaysia called The Hungry Tapir has made the move recently. Overall, it was a pleasant experience and definitely worth recommending to others who are in town.
Read morePros: Great food and drinks, Great ambience, Great service
Cons: Not vegan although they can easily be vegan
Tiggy
I absolutely agree that it’s unnecessary for them to serve the non-vegan dishes. It reflects that this is a business that serves vegan food to profit from a particular market, rather than because they care at all about veganism, or even vegetarianism for that matter. The owners also own Rice Queen, which serves murdered animal flesh.

Vegan beef rendang - Edit
Woah, I am so impressed with the beef rendang. It is really really good! They also have gluten free food.
Read moreI saw people having laksa and squeezed a lime on the gravy. I thought it was quite weird, haha! Oh, just opposite the street, there is a vegan grocer. Be sure to check them out!

Solid menu - Edit
A good variety in the menu. Delicious food. Able to order online via a QR code or the more traditional through the menu and a person route.
Read moreSome things are still vegetarian so this place is not all plant based, but the menu is well labelled.
The con was the prices, it is pricey and sadly the flavours aren't mind blowing which would justify the price.

Decent feed - Edit
It's nice going to a restaurant and having the whole menu to choose from. Food is decent, but the vibe is a little grunge for me. Very typical of that area and demographic. I'd still happily eat there though. Maybe I just prefer a more formal dining experience... or maybe I'm getting old.

Great food and vibes! - Edit
Loved this place. Delicious food and huge servings for a very good price.
Read moreOur favorites were the vegan chicken bao, the p king vegan duck wrap and the laksa. Also the raspberry tart was very very nice! 😋
The only reason I give them a 4 star rating is because they are not fully vegan and they serve animal products. All the dishes are vegan by default but you can add cheese/diary options. Hopefully soon they go fully vegan! 🤞🏻
Btw we went for lunch and then on the same day we went back for dinner. That’s how much I loved it! 💚 100% recommended!

Delicious! - Edit
There are so many vegan options in Melbourne that it was not easy to pick where to go on our short trip, but we decided to kick it off at Vegie Bar!
Read moreWe ordered the pad thai, mee goreng, and fries with chipotle aioli. While I found the pad thai just a tad too sour for my liking, the mee goreng was phenomenal! The fries were perfectly crispy on the outside and soft and delicious on the inside - a really generous serving as well!
The staff was very friendly and the atmosphere was amazing!

Great food, shame they still use dairy - Edit
When I first moved to Melbourne everyone told me Vegie Bar was the old standby. I did like the food and vibe, but when they accidentally gave me dairy sour cream one time I was a bit turned off. Recently I've been coming back, and while it's a shame they aren't all vegan (everything is vegan by default but you can ask for dairy) I do think they have a good range. The desserts, from all-vegan Girls and Boys next door - are to die for - I am in love with the Lemon Tart!

I never went back after they gave me dairy in a 'vegan' dish, that I had confirmed was vegan while ordering.

I want to love them again - Edit
Veggie bar used to be the place to be for vegans. Unfortunately that has changed. It feels as if they’ve stopped putting in the same effort they used to and what used to be a Fitzroy institution now feels a little lackluster. I hope they get back that spark they once had and continue serving up tasty vegan grub to all. Last time I ate there my food came out cold.. onwards and upwards though I hope.
