Great vegan cafe

Large menu, delicious food, big servings, friendly staff, food presented beautifully. I went with my non-vegan son and he loved it too! Also has a small selection of vegan pantry/fridge items.

Tasty healthy food

Have to go up to order. Not really clear on service level. Blue colado smoothie and Staying Alive burger were yum. Polenta wedges are good but not like chips. Vietnamese noodle salad would have been better if noodles were warm instead of cold.

Lovely

Great selection of food. The chai was good, the pesto penne very nice and the banana bread was amazing! Good selection of other vegan products too: marshmallows, frozen bacon, quiche mix etc.. Lovely staff

Not just for instagram

Nature Cafe has such beautiful food that you simply can't not take a photo (or is that just me?). A nice range on the menu and in the cabinet. Friendly service and comfortable seating. The food is outstanding for both presentation and flavour.
I had scrambled tofu, which was really one of the best I have ever had - really tasty. Coffee is good too.

Everything was Delicious!

In order of yumminess: The blue colada smoothie (with soursop and blue spirulina) was absolutely spectacular 10/10. The lentil burger also amazing, a very close second 9.5/10. Jackfruit nachos not far behind 9/10. Didn't have room left for dessert. Bought a whole heap of vegan groceries too.

Pros: All food and grocery items vegan, Everything really delicious, Soursop available!

Cons: Dairy is an option, Not cheap (or we would've bought even more lol )

Yummy Food!

Lots of yummy food! I really love the salad platter, it's never boring salads it is such delicious mix of salads with really tasty dressings !! Their deserts are so yummy too ! I usually get the raw vegan cakes and they are soo good! They have main meals that cost a little bit pricey but the good thing is they also have cheaper options😄!
The only issue I've ever had is that at lunch time they get VERY busy and it can take awhile to get the food but it's worth it, also I wish if they are open for longer hours but that's not much of an issue.

Pros: Great food, Lots to choose from, Mostly healthy

Cons: Some times you need to wait awhile to get the food

100% reccomend

Super tasty food and cute interior.

I 100% reccomend the smoothie bowls. They're super thick and full to the brim with fruit.

Pros: All food is vegan

Cons: don't see why they still have cow's milk

This is a vegan restaurant

The only thing on the menu at this excellent vegan restaurant is cow's milk, which is used to make coffee only. Everything else is plant-based.

Pros: Lots of vegan options

Cons: None

Just lovely!

Love this little shop! Staff are always so friendly. Yummy chai and treats. Loads of food options to suit all needs, from bowls to meals. Lots of treats too! Also has a little section of vegan ‘supermarket’ foods that are often hard to find elsewhere. Reasonable prices. Would recommend!

Frankston's only veg eatery

November 2019
A reasonable toasted sandwich (from the cabinet) today. The magic buddha bowl was anything but unfortunately and consisted of plenty of bland rice noodles, a bit of salad and a few squares of tofu. The dressing was kind of odd too. On the up side, the hot chocolate was very good.

November 2019
Good smashed avo on silly thin toast ( 2 and a half small slices provided).

October 2019
Tried the award winning Stayin Alive burger which was mostly enjoyable in terms of flavour but let down by a too soft beetroot bun which meant it really didn't hold together well with the variety of moist fillings; would work really well with a sturdier sourdough roll. The side serve of chips like last time, were really not great; hopefully they will change suppliers soon as I don't believe they are cut in house. The nachos we ordered were very tasty and well presented but a touch small for the price tag.

August 2019
Really odd chips akin to fast food chains unfortunately. The dirty chai on the other hand was very good.

May 2019
We visited to check out the new menu (which is largely the same as the old menu) and ordered the carrot dog and the Tempeh Satay burger, the week's special. I didn't really enjoy either of them due to the condiments being super sweet; this became a little too intense after a few bites. I did enjoy the iced dirty chai and the rainbow chips (special), however.

November 2017
We shared a protein burger (very good), platter (could be better) and a hot chocolate (excellent).

November 2017
Good to see a cafe with plenty of vegan choices open on a Sunday! The food was slightly underwhelming on the first visit but with a few tweaks could be very good. Would happily return to try other menu items.

cute cafe

Overall very delicious and good presentation, pretty looking cafe. Like the fact it also has that you can buy your own ingredients to make your own foods, very helpful.

Pros: Vegan, Separate ingredients sold, Good presentation

Cons: Pricey

Fish and chips baby!

One of the best vegan fish and chips we've tasted - banana blossom is the bomb. Really good drinks menu as well, and staff are always nice and friendly.

Fantastic Cafe

Everything is vegan except that they offer cows milk in coffees. So many options, we had the breakfast burger and power breakfast which were both amazing. Lovely atmosphere. Will be back again soon.

Pros: Heaps of vegan options

Hidden gem

Been here quite a few times now. Definitely my goto when I’m down in this direction. The menu has varied quite a few times since I’ve been coming here in the last couple of months but there’s always at least one or two options for the fussy vegan which is myself. Their satay *chicken* wraps they have in the fridge window sometimes are fantastic, definitely a favourite. The BLAT also great. Definitely somewhere I’ll continue to come. Desserts are also amazing. Peanut butter tart highly recommended. The foods always been great, but the only downside is I have yet to have a nice soy coffee. But that doesn’t stop me from returning.

All vegan cafe but inconsistent quality

Eaten here 4 times. Each time food was varied in quality and flavour. Quite a few things out of a packet... gf muesli/ hash browns eg
Great it’s vegan but maybe the menu is too large and varied hence the inconsistent quality

Pros: All vegan, Nice staff

Cons: Inconsistent , Packet food

Love it

Such a great cafe. I definitely recommend it to anyone in the area. There are so many vegan options to choose from, and everything I have eaten there has been wonderful. I hope to be returning soon!
(Would be better if it was fully vegan though!)

Impressed

Billed as a vegetarian cafe but had quite an impressive array of vegan options. Had the Vegan Nachos and was very happy with the choice. Large serving that I struggled to finish. Outdoor courtyard is a bonus, summer sitting in the sun enjoying a smoothie. Staff was very friendly.

Pros: Large array of vegan options , Outdoor courtyard , Friendly staff

Great variety of food

Been a few times and found different menus, but most recently the menu was very extensive with so many interesting imaginative options it was difficult to decide. Probably the most well rounded vego menu i have ever come across. Servings were very large and very tasty.

Pros: Variety, Enthusiastic owners, Value for money

Cons: Weird staff not suited to customer service
