Disappointed - Edit
Was very excited to try this cafe. Lovely staff and environment. Looked like a great menu. Chose the sexy greens dish. Was almost unpleasant. It just didn’t work. Wished I’d chosen something safer. $68 for two meals and one coffee.

Loud music. Would not go again - Edit
I went here for lunch with my son and daughter.
Read moreThe staff are friendly and the venue looks nice, spacious and light.
The music was very loud, thumping rave style music : not a relaxing lunch.
I had the pumpkin (Pumpkin up the beat) mains: it tasted like fish-emulsion and cooked with the skin on, the butternut pumpkin skin was rough and nicked and the dish was quite strange as the soggy baked pumpkin had a sprinkling of raw vegetable crumb at one end and the sauce on the plate tasted like charcoal. We also had the bravocado burger, which was really fresh and delicious (over priced though). The raspberry slice was very nice and the drinks are good.
I would not go again, as the music is disturbing and the menu selection for lunch is too small.
The cake selection was good.
Pros: Friendly staff, good cake selection
Cons: Loud rave music, Limited savoury menu

Have eaten here a number of times, most recently this week with my 7yo. Everything is always yummy. If you have a sweet tooth and like milk/thick shakes, be sure to try the Salty Malty Gaytime (no dessert necessary!).

Fabulous Vegan fare! - Edit
This is the 3rd premises in Geelong, that I have had the pleasure to eat Faceplant food. It seems they keep outgrowing their previous cafe’s. They are now in an converted fire station and it is wonderfully done with inside/outside seating!
Read moreA vast array of cakes and pastries was available (I got there early) along with a medium sized menu of thoughtful choices of mains, including day breakfast.
I love eating at Faceplant whenever I am in Geelong and highly recommend it!
Pros: Completely vegan , Friendly service , Beautiful ambiance

Geelong vegan cafe - Edit
We stopped by here on our visit to Geelong. They weren’t fully open but had a limited takeout menu with about 5 options. My partner and I had the big breakfast and we both loved it! The sauce and feta in particular were fantastic, and the potatoes. Cakes were also fantastic, they have a huge variety of cakes available. We will be back.
Read morePros: Lots of desserts, Great house feta, Nice space
