Best lunch!

Best lunch I’ve had in a long time! I wish I could give it more than 4 stars. I had The Dirty South burger. The mock southern fried chicken in the burger was delicious.

Everything can be made vegan. EVERYTHING

This has to be the best non vegan cafe in the sense that all items can be made vegan so you don’t miss out. I got the vegan halloumi, cauliflower and corn fritters. They were cheesy and delicious. The soy latte was hot too, but not burnt. Excellent work.

Pros: Everything can be made vegan , Fair price, Tasty

Makes you wonder why they feel they have to serve slaughtered animal parts.

@tiggy you’re right they could easily go entirely vegan with an easy adjustment to the menu. Hopefully in the future they move towards that, until then I think this is a good option for vegans in the area who are eating with non vegan friends/family. (Instead of just avocado on toast)

Amazing

I would 100% recommend this place to anyone.Anything can be made vegan and I love how affordable everything was. It also did not cost extra to make it vegan which I appreciated. The fried chicken in the burger was delicious, and I also had a iced chocolate, be prepared the servings are huge.

Pros: Afordable, Everything can be made vegan

Fave new place in Camberwell!

Usually when places have vegan options you'd expect it to be one of two with minus the eggs or something. But EVERYTHING on the menu can be made vegan! So great!

Pros: Everything can be made vegan, Modern looking place , Can bring non vegan friends there

Cons: Quite pricey , Not really in Camberwell but only a few mins away, Can get very busy

What's not to like?

Great service, outdoor seating (as well as indoor) and a vast selection of vegan items.

I loved the pancakes. Not usually one for sweet breakfasts, I was tempted by the pancakes which were on special. Fluffy and tasty, not overly sweet with the addition of berries, and beautifully IG-worthy. Great coffee too

Will definitely be back.

The Old Garage - New Favourite!

When a cafe claims to have a plant based option for everything on the list it’s a little hard to believe. From experience I expect ingredients to be left off - but the cost is the same!
Not at The Old Garage! They deliver on the promise with perfection! We had the Corn, Cauliflower & Halloumi Fritters and the Breakfast Tacos. Both were delicious - nothing went back to the kitchen! Looking forward to returning to try more!

Pros: Plant based options for everything on the menu, Lovely space and pooch friendly, Very helpful and engaged staff

Cons: Some add ons are expensive

Do you send things back to the kitchen much?

Everything can be made vegan!

Beautiful cafe where every menu item can be made vegan. The owners are very passionate about making plant based eating accessible to everyone. Meal sizes are generous and the staff are very helpful. Glad I discovered this place!

(Note the rating is limited to 4 stars by Happy Cow for any restaurants that also serve meat. So the 4 star rating is not because I wasn't happy with the meal or service).

Fun and tasty

One of the most welcoming cafés in Melbourne, the OG has plenty of space and the usual safety protocol. The menu allows plant based options to be an easy ordinary choice. And there’s plenty of different options to choose from. I went with the sliders, a decadent American soft sweetness with a fine scramble. This is a suburban garage with International flair.
