At least 5 years ago, when veg*n restaurants were scarce, even in Brunswick, I used to live nearby and visit A Minor Place A LOT! They do great coffees with Bonsoy but that ain't nothing special in this area. They have a few menu items listed "VO" for vegan optional which just involves taking out the dairy. No substitutions made. In a neighbourhood where pretty much every cafe offers a few items that they can make vegan, I don't consider this particularly vegan friendly. They haven't gone out of their way to design vegan menu items but they'll politely oblige. Henry's White Beans, however, are and always have been a delicious, comforting vegan breakfast. Served on toasted sourdough, with dukkah and rocket, they're garlicy, creamy, and melt in your mouth. Gets me every time! Just remember to ask for no butter on your toast, or mention that you're vegan. That said, given that HC discourages people from listening non-veg restaurants, especially in areas where there are other, 100% veg places nearby, I'm wondering why A Minor Place rates a mention. Perhaps because they stock vegan muffins, brownies, and other baked goods from Crumbs. A thoughtful touch in an otherwise not particularly vegan-friendly cafe.
