Very disappointing cakes

We had a choc beet cake which was completely dry, it must have been there for so long…
The banana bread was ok but not worth the $10.
Plus the staff who barely said hello.. we could have waited 5minutes there until someone welcomed us, even if it wasn’t the rush at all. Rude.
You have customers coming, the least you can do is welcome them with a hello and tell them (if needed) that you’ll be there in a minute. I don’t understand how this is not obvious for a company.

It’s too bad because I was looking forward to eating my lunch there.. I won’t go again!

Pros: Vegan menu

Cons: Way too expensive, Dry cakes

Love love love

Amazing, pretty much tried the whole menu over the days we stayed in Albany. Everything was top quality, we enjoyed every dish we had. Top faves was the jackfruit, the fish and the nacho. Go here for sure.
The only fault we could find is they seasonally change their opening hours, but they are not updated on Google. So maybe try to get there before 1pm

Enjoyable

I went here with friends for breakfast. There wasn't really a lot of options to eat and I ended up getting a lasagne even though it was only about 10am 😅 it was very tasty to be fair.
Maybe I just visited on the wrong day!

Pros: Friendly staff, Tasty food

Cons: Pricey, Small menu

Great food but sell dairy milk

Amazing food although it's expensive. Nice little shop too and the place is nicely decorated. However you can have dairy milk with your coffee so they shouldn't claim to be fully vegan...

Pros: Great food, Various options, Nice vibe

Cons: Offer dairy milk, Portions on the smaller side, Expensive

Disappointing

Was excited to try this cafe and was disappointed to see on arrival that items found on an old online menu weren't available (only specials and items from the display cabinet). It was a bit confusing, but everything is vegan. Chose a reuben sandwich which had great flavor, but the vanilla slice and coffee were both awful, everything was overpriced and unfortunately the staff weren't particularly friendly or helpful. Other items like the bowls and smoothies look good.

No prices on anything, grrr

A lot of things aren't vegan and nothing in the display case has labels or prices 😭

Great cafe

Amazing café. Great atmosphere. Great staff. Serves dairy and eggs but otherwise mostly vegan. Very tasty. A little expensive for the serving size, especially the smoothies, but overall pretty good. Thank you so much and will definitely come back next time we're in town!

So so tasty

I shared the avocado toast and mushroom ragu with a friend and both were exceptionally flavourful. One of the best meals I've had this year! The housemade macadamia-cashew milk was also scrumptious in my coffee.

I could not recommend this place more!

Great food, good vibes

I'm not gluten-free but the fact that all the food here is GF is not a negative for me. We tried the waffles, burger and nachos. The waffles and burger bun tasted obviously gluten-free, but the rest of both meals more than made up for it. The burger was an easy 8-9/10 and was literally steaming hot. It came with perfectly cooked sweet potato fries with awesome vegan aioli. The nachos were spicy and delicious.
This cafe was described on their menus as entirely vegan (and gluten-free), however eggs and dairy milk were on the menu. We asked about it and a very helpful (clearly vegan) staff member told us that there isn't any dairy or eggs in anything, but they are available to add to meals/drinks.
Our food came out quickly, everything was hot and the service was friendly.
There's also a selection of lollies, chocolates etc for sale (we were told that the unlabeled marshmallows weren't vegan).
Hard to fault this place. A must visit.

Pros: Almost everything is vegan & knowledgeable staff, efficient friendly staff, good atmosphere, great food (also coeliac certified)

Cons: Confusing addition of eggs and dairy milk to menu

Savoury Muffins and Coffee

Love, love, love this cafe! The savoury muffins are delicious with bits of roasted veg. Yum! Also love the banana walnut muffins. All GF and vegan. These muffins are the best I’ve eaten in years. It is rare to find vegan muffins in cafes. Also the soy flat white is always perfect and toasted panini was great. I wish this cafe was in my town, for now it will be my treat when I go to Albany.

Pros: Friendly staff., So many delicious vegan options. , GF and vegan menu.

Cons: Too far from my home for a daily visit!

Great food, great staff, great place

The café is beautiful equipped with comfy sofa areas to chill and work. On the other side of the room there is proper dining area with tables. The deco is great, vintage style. The staff, very friendly and helpful, explained to me their different variety of teas and drinks.
I went for the cloud chai tea with almond milk and a Savory muffin. Absolutely delicious!

Pros: Great food and beverages, Friendly and helpful staff, Great atmosphere

Lovely cafe - you must visit

Amazing food and lovely staff. The menu is simply delicious. Had the breakie bowl, roastie toastie, sweet potato bowl and banana bread and was all amazing and so flavoursome. The whole menu is vegan, the only thing not is eggs which they have on a few options. Really cute cafe with great design and layout. Lots of cakes and treats as well which are mostly vegan

Great Find In Albany

Alkaline cafe was a welcome find during our trip to Albany.
Most of the food is vegan or can be made vegan.
The service was great, and the cafe was spacious (not cramped like some places).

The coffee was fantastic and we really enjoyed the Nachos, Matcha Waffles, and Banana Bread.

Definitely worth a visit or 2 if you're in the area!

Pros: Many Vegan Options, Friendly staff, Great coffee

Good coffee.

Food

We were second customers there and we had to wait over 40min to get our lunch. We had lasagne, chickpea burger and salad bowl. I ordered burger with potato bowl but got only few potatoes next to my burger. They all was tasteless and had to add lots of salt and pepper to taste something. It was also overpriced comparing size of the dish. If I have to say something positive: atmosphere was pretty nice. Overall wouldn't go there again. Those two stars because can't give 1 star for vegan/vegetarian place.
