Paper Moon is a 1973 film but this is a restaurant not a film. - Edit
When the moon hits your eyes like a big pizza pie (The moon I'm referring too is Paper Moon Cafe)
Read morePaper Moon and Wildspice kitchen are a great vegan duo. Lots of coffee, juices and soft drinks available at the cafe and the kitchen has a wild selection of breakfasts, burgers and other food.
Pros: Free pool table, Selection of board and card games, Jukebox (groovy)

Nice spot but food is bland - Edit
I hate leaving negative reviews for vegan places as I try to support them all. Great spot, friendly staff, good prices, food looked great but......it was so bland! No flavour. I ordered the Amelie which is tofu, hash browns, croissant. Possibly the worst scrambled tofu I've had. It had no seasoning...was runny....tasted like raw egg whites. And I love scrambled tofu I eat it almost everyday. Hash brown looked great but was so bland. Almost felt like the food didn't even have salt. Perhaps it was just an off morning for them. I might be willing to try it again, maybe a different item but yeah my experience was pretty disappointing

Tasty - Edit
Always new options and specials. Totally vegan menu including the milks in the cafe. My favourite is the mac n cheeze pasta with pumpkin. Food can sometimes be a little cold or cool quickly but the people serving are always so friendly and helpful. They also have a cake cabinet.

The BEST vegan food - Edit
This is probably the best vegan eat-in place I’ve been to in Brisbane. I’m a fussy vegan, and I enjoy every meal I get there. I really recommend the Mushroom burger!! So yum

Amazing drinks and wonderful atmosphere - Edit
My boyfriend and I go almost every weekend. The drinks are so good and the atmosphere is wonderful. We love playing pool or chess and we always end up getting over 4 different drinks cause they’re soo good. The staff are lovely and friendly. I love getting some food from the Wild Spice Kitchen van while I’m there.

Love! - Edit
I love paper moon!! Consistently great meals, cute setting, delicious polenta and a great variety of meals. The cooks are very knowledgeable about what’s in their food too and can help you choose the right meal if you have any allergies etc. The drinks are also great! The waiting time can be a bit long if it’s busy but it’s worth it.
Read morePros: Vegan! , Dog friendly , Consistently great meals
Cons: Sometimes a long waiting period , Seating out of the sun can be limited

The most comfortable cafe ever - Edit
Four of us (three omnis and a vegan) enjoyed Paper Moon around 10am on a Sunday for a top notch breakfast.
Read moreThe setting is great. They took a suburban house and turned it into a character-full cafe and function venue. They had a good idea and executed it very well. I would love it even more if they got ride of some of he plastic greenery in favour of real plants. The free pool table is a really nice touch - we had fun playing while we waited for our meals.
Ordering the food is strangely done outside at a permanently parked food truck. It’s a strange concept and experience but I enjoyed it overall.
The downside is that you are given a buzzer which goes off when the food is ready and I found that a bit tacky.
I had heard that the wait time for meals could be a bit long but that wasn’t the case for us. All four meals came out in around 15 minutes which was pretty good by any standards.
We ordered 2 x French toast and 2 x ‘Bilbo’ which is a tasting plate of various things. I loved the food as did the omnis with me. All of us were quite full by the end of breakfast. We also had chai lattes made with Oatly which were very nicely made and quite delicious.
The comfortable ambience is aided by many homely couches in various rooms and is aided by the chill music which wafts throughout the converted house.
When we left at 11am it was quite full and I’m so glad they are so deservedly popular (and doubly glad I live nearby). $60 for four people is pretty good too.
Pros: Excellent ambience (and staff), Fantastic food and coffees, Reasonably priced
Cons: Taking a star away for plastic plants

Great food and lovely venue - Edit
The food here was so good! We did a build your own mac n cheese and the pumpkin with potato and carrot rosti bowl. Both were great and so we're the juices.
Read moreThe place is really comfy with couches inside, a pool table and a cute backyard outdoor area.
Will definitely be back 😊

Reasonable? - Edit
Service is not that great really. Drinks are fine, but food took forever and was overpriced, not to mention below average. Fine if you just want a vegan place to have lunch and don't mind waiting.

Terrible - Edit
After waiting for AN HOUR we got a very average food. I ordered scrambled tofu, and what it came was super soft tofu on tomato sauce, spinach without any dressing and two polentas (which was oily but tasty). My friend ordered Mushrooms on toast, which came dried, plain, very average.
Read moreTwo super simple dishes, with no much preparation that took an hour to come. Frustrating experience and we will not go back.
Pros: Good coffee
Cons: Waiting time, Average and plain food, Scrambled tofu is actually something else

Funky Cafe off the Beaten Track - Edit
Funny set-up with food van next door whence meals can be ordered, while drinks are ordered and made in the actual cafe. Coffee is nice enough.
Read morePros: quirky decor and vibe, VEGAN, outdoor seating, there’s a POOL TABLE 😱
Cons: it would be simpler to order everything inside, food does not appear overly interesting
