Good vegan options

Small cafe with a few seating areas. Clearly labelled vegan options. The vegan frittata is yum and the coffee is great.

Delicious brunch! 🍌🫐🥥

Went with family and everyone found it delicious (some not vegan) so good for pleasing everyone. Lots of gluten free options too. I got the açai bowl which was delicious and beautifully presented. My partner got the vegan roll which was also delicious. I also had a chai latte (make sure to ask without honey!) which was perfect for keeping me warm - unfortunately most of the seating is outside which would be lovely on a warmer day. I will be back again

Pros: Delicious food, Easy to find

Cons: Not much seating, mostly outdoor, Could be more vegan options

It’s funny how’s the highest praise that plant based food can receive is to be approved of by people who don’t care about eating the remains of slaughtered animals.

Great spot

Very small and cute café that’s fully gluten-free
Only three small tables inside but large ones outside
Lots of vegan options. They serve yay feta cheese which is my fav vegan brand
Dukkah was great. Nicely roasted nuts and seeds added to the dishes. Vegan milk options are great: tigermilk as well
Offering chai and matcha as drinks
Loved the smashed avo
Had several salads that were vegan, raw desserts, smoothies and smoothie bowls
I loved the coffee too
Very friendly and fast service.

Super cosy boutique

Loved the cute, small cosy atmosphere, but very expensive for small portion sizes. They are gluten free so don't offer oat milk.

Great little find

Very small little cafe close on Flinders Lane. Everything is gluten free, some items are vegan friendly. Based on healthy eating.
I had a vegan frittata with relish to take away and a really nice soy flat white.

Pros: Some vegan options , Nice staff, In the heart of the city

Cons: Very small , No oat milk (it’s a GF cafe)

Vegan options in the CBD

Some tasty healthy vegan choices in the mix of vegetarian & paleo. Fresh, beautifully presented and filling. And excellent coffee, probably best I had in Melbourne.

Awesome brekkie on the go

Some vegan breakfast options if you’re on the go. Would recommend taking your brekkie to sit by the river as the space has limited seating options. Tea was great as well :)

Good lunch stop

I passed this place on the way to the library and decided to check it out one lunchtime. It does have limited seating and you do need to be on the small side to fit into their seats but it was comfortable. It probably is easier to take away food though. I had the vegan coconut chia pudding with fruit. It was really tasty and filling. I asked about their treats and they told me most were vegan so I'll definitely grab something again for lunch. Their menu listed which items were vegan so I have confidence in them knowing what vegan means. My carnivore friend had a vegetarian frittata with salad which she really loved and she is quite particular about her food! The staff were really nice too.

Pros: Vegan listed iptions, Vegan treats

Cons: Limited seating
