Great find

Vegan menu options, great vibes, friendly staff … inside dining & a few outside spaces to sit in amongst the street atmosphere.
We really enjoyed our time here, the food was super yummy … and we can’t wait to come back.

Coming from interstate, we had this venue marked as one to visit, super glad we did 👍
It’s an icon in Melbourne, and you can see why it’s been running for sooo long.

Enjoyed the superb sweeties - lemon meringue pie & Brownie with caramel sauce & a scoop of thier homemade icecream - OMG … to die for ‼️

Plenty of vegan options

Love love love this place. Food a little on the pricier side so it’s definitely a treat for us! Only thing to keep in mind is that they do serve dairy milk, so if you want a coffee or hot drink make sure you say soy/oat etc!! Meals are vegetarian or vegan so make sure to check the menu carefully!! Yaki udon is really nice, but I always kinda want more mock duck bc it is good :P
Overall a great place!

Good gnocchi 😍

Still good! Serving sizes are great — no stress that you’re going to be hungry after. Went with a group & all were very happy & satisfied with flavour. Outdoor seating has QR code ordering to the table too for those Covid-safer vibes.

Pros: Gnocchi

Good food! Even better if they could ditch dairy

Really yummy food and big portions! They're about 90% vegan which is great. It would be even better if they could ditch the dairy completely 🌱🙏

Delish

Dayum this place has really stood the test of time for vegos - I would come here all the time in high school and over a decade on and it’s still bustling! The food was great, so many options and can’t complain. Personal fave was the gnocchi and the mushroom pizza. GF options are great, but I definitely prefer the non-GF pizza base. Keen to go again!

Great place!

This place has so many options! I went with the greens plate & it lacked a little flavour but the rest of the food looked really good! A little pricey but worth it overall!

Good options! Lots of variety

We had a special dish: HSP. The kebab meat was very tasty. The spices weren't quite the same but still delicious, highly recommended! We also had the yaki udon which was good. And the king oyster mushrooms which was very tasty, great texture and flavour.

Cons: Still has dairy available.

Lovely Ambience + Lovely Food = Lovely Combo

I’m thankful to my younger brother’s girlfriend for recommending Vegie Bar (along with Girls And Boys) in Fitzroy. Enjoyed the relaxing ambience, the nice service, golden chai lattes (pictured), gyozas, spring rolls and the pizza with the kale topping. Though I think the vegan cheese layer on the pizza could use a little more generosity to add the cheesiness and balance out the tartness of the kale and olives. I also wish that Vegie Bar can have a full vegan menu instead of offering a few non-vegan options like dairy on their menu as the non-vegan options are just unnecessary. In fact, I think Vegie Bar has the potential to go vegan as a similar business in Malaysia called The Hungry Tapir has made the move recently. Overall, it was a pleasant experience and definitely worth recommending to others who are in town.

Pros: Great food and drinks, Great ambience, Great service

Cons: Not vegan although they can easily be vegan

Vegan beef rendang

Woah, I am so impressed with the beef rendang. It is really really good! They also have gluten free food.

I saw people having laksa and squeezed a lime on the gravy. I thought it was quite weird, haha! Oh, just opposite the street, there is a vegan grocer. Be sure to check them out!

Solid menu

A good variety in the menu. Delicious food. Able to order online via a QR code or the more traditional through the menu and a person route.

Some things are still vegetarian so this place is not all plant based, but the menu is well labelled.

The con was the prices, it is pricey and sadly the flavours aren't mind blowing which would justify the price.

Decent feed

It's nice going to a restaurant and having the whole menu to choose from. Food is decent, but the vibe is a little grunge for me. Very typical of that area and demographic. I'd still happily eat there though. Maybe I just prefer a more formal dining experience... or maybe I'm getting old.
The menu had symbols to show which items had nuts which makes my life heaps easier as an allergy sufferer. I appreciate restaurants that do this. Prices are good too.

Great food and vibes!

Loved this place. Delicious food and huge servings for a very good price.
Our favorites were the vegan chicken bao, the p king vegan duck wrap and the laksa. Also the raspberry tart was very very nice! 😋
The only reason I give them a 4 star rating is because they are not fully vegan and they serve animal products. All the dishes are vegan by default but you can add cheese/diary options. Hopefully soon they go fully vegan! 🤞🏻
Btw we went for lunch and then on the same day we went back for dinner. That’s how much I loved it! 💚 100% recommended!

Delicious!

There are so many vegan options in Melbourne that it was not easy to pick where to go on our short trip, but we decided to kick it off at Vegie Bar!
We ordered the pad thai, mee goreng, and fries with chipotle aioli. While I found the pad thai just a tad too sour for my liking, the mee goreng was phenomenal! The fries were perfectly crispy on the outside and soft and delicious on the inside - a really generous serving as well!
The staff was very friendly and the atmosphere was amazing!
