Great for Australian & international vegan snacks

There are all sorts of vegan Australian snacks that I’ve not been able to find in supermarkets. One visit to this store and I found everything on my list. Really nice interior and a great variety of products.

Pros: Great selection, Plenty of international products, Friendly staff

Matt & Nat Stockists!

What a great pleasure to see Matt & Nat bags stocked in a grocery store!
Also was great to see so many Christmas items on sale, we bought a Christmas pudding, custard, nooch, and a bar honeycomb and ginger chocolate (which didn't last long).
We discovered a few items that we haven't seen elsewhere and would definitely return in the future.

Always a treat!

I love coming here as it has so many vegan goodies and merchandise. It supports vegan charities which is a bonus. The prices are on the higher end, but it’s expensive to run a store in Fitzroy.

Pros: Fully vegan!

Best vegan store in Australia

Great 100% vegan store with a huge range of products. I find something new every time I visit! The team is very friendly and has a wealth of knowledge about the products and new brands. They also run regular tastings from vegan wine to chocolate and pizza - yum!

Pros: 100% vegan, huge range of products, very friendly staff, many new brands and products every month

Cons: A bit pricier than a supermarket but worth it!

Yummy treats

I went here looking for some Valentine’s Day chocolates and had great success! I found a great collection for my man, and will definitely return here for chocolates in future. Really nice how they had lots of local things such as Edgar’s Mission wares and Red Balloon lollies too. Only downside is some thing are are very overpriced eg. Beyond Burgers we’re $17.

This shop has everything that you could need. Found a few things that I hadn't seen before. It's a must to stop and have a look if in the area. Never know what you may discover.
Staff friendly and helpful.

Cons: Due to location, parking can be a issue

Nice concept, though a bit pricey

Great ethos behind the business - I would love to support them more, but unfortunately the prices are generally a bit high. It's OK for the stuff that you can't find anywhere else, but some things that they sell which are widely available are also marked up. On the other hand they do offer great discounts sometimes so you can be lucky! Definitely visit if you're from out of town as the range is huge!

Pros: Unique range, Great ethos, Occassional discounts

Cons: Generally prices are high

Good, spacious, all-vegan store

A visitor to Melbourne, I went to this shop when I heard there was a bake sale happening to help Edgar’s Mission. The spacious store sells a wide range of food products as well as message t-shirts, purses, books, home and personal care items and more. Maybe on the pricey side, but it’s so good to have an all-vegan grocery store, where we don’t have to read the labels! Snack bars, chocolate, salty snacks, condiments, quick meals, chilled and frozen products.( I think the shop is still closed [Oct. 2018] after damage from an arson fire in the back lane. Their online store is still active though!)

Pros: all vegan, wide range of products

Gooooooood!!!

How amazing it is to have a 100% vegan shop!!!! It offers a great variety of vegan products although a little pricier. However, it is a great place to shop for vegan products I must say.

ALL Vegan!!!

The best thing about this shop is EVERYTHING IS VEGAN! One can shop without worries and doesn't have to read the ingredients list maybe?! However, the products here are overpriced as the others comment.

fully vegan shop

Some products are way over priced for some reason!! That's the only downside in my opinion! Didn't try their cafe food. The girl with the really long brunette hair is so nice btw!!
