Great food, shame they still use dairy - Edit
When I first moved to Melbourne everyone told me Vegie Bar was the old standby. I did like the food and vibe, but when they accidentally gave me dairy sour cream one time I was a bit turned off. Recently I've been coming back, and while it's a shame they aren't all vegan (everything is vegan by default but you can ask for dairy) I do think they have a good range. The desserts, from all-vegan Girls and Boys next door - are to die for - I am in love with the Lemon Tart!

I want to love them again - Edit
Veggie bar used to be the place to be for vegans. Unfortunately that has changed. It feels as if they’ve stopped putting in the same effort they used to and what used to be a Fitzroy institution now feels a little lackluster. I hope they get back that spark they once had and continue serving up tasty vegan grub to all. Last time I ate there my food came out cold.. onwards and upwards though I hope.

Have been here too many times. Food’s always amazing. Wide selection, comes fast and big serving sizes for a reasonable price. Must try! Definitely go next door to girls and boys for dessert 🤤

Delightful - Edit
Thoroughly enjoyed our meal out with friends at the Vegie Bar. It was very busy so we were lucky to get a table for the six of us, we would have booked a table but not possible for less than 7 people. The Mee Goreng was wonderful, and the Laksa was full of flavour but it could have been better with a few more veggies and tofu.
Read moreGreat atmosphere, and friendly service.
All the food was vegan, but what a shame about the honey in the cocktails. But at least these cocktails are clearly marked with a honey pot logo on the menu.

Meh - Edit
Very average food. I had the margarita pizza which was okay, the base wasn't very good. My partner had a burger which he said was fine. Really dislike how they have dairy alternatives at a "vegan" place, I think it's sending the wrong message.

Always good - Edit
Vegie Bars food and that's Desserts too, are always good. You can eat there whether you feel like pizza or a healthy stir-fry or lots of other choices. You can also go there for just coffee or coffee and cake for afternoon tea.
Read moreThe only thing I find frustrating, and the staff are nice, but on the rare occasions we order dessert, it's always forgotten, we sit and wait, our plates are cleared, eventually we get someone's attention to say we're still waiting for dessert. Not a big deal, they are frequently busy.
My suggestion, to myself, is make dessert a separate order when finished mains.
Pros: Tasty food, Lots of choice, Nice atmosphere
Cons: Forgetting second course.

Yummy food and cool atmosphere - Edit
Good menu! I ordered the classic stir fry with tofu and satay sauce. My only con is they only gave me like 4 lil blocks of tofu, for the price I think there should have been more tofu. Will definitely be back!! I really want to try the “duck”
Read morePros: Lots of modern vegan food (perfect for non vegan)
Cons: Need more tofu in dish

Grouse vegan food - Edit
Vegie bar is awesome to be honest. I would give it 5 stars in a heartbeat if it didn't serve dairy milk and honey for some weird reason.
Read moreService is usually great, the food is always fantastic as well.
Definitely worth a crack if you're looking for great vegan food in the perfect location.
Pros: Foods great , Service is usually good, Can pump out food even when busy
Cons: Serves dairy and honey as options 🤮

Great food & practically all vegan - Edit
We got around the long wait times for dinner by going at lunchtime. This worked great in being able to walk straight in for a table, the only downside is the menu is the same and the dinner sized portions are a bit much for lunch (having said that we only had ourselves to blame for ordering desserts upfront!). Excellent meal but lost a point because their QR code ordering system allows you to order everything at front and choose "bring dessert after main" or "everything at the same time" - we chose the former but this didn't seem to translate in to action & we struggled to get anyone's attention to ask them to bring our desserts.

Kept coming back for more! - Edit
We took a trip right before the peak of covid and this was one of favorite restaurants in Melbourne. The first time we visited, we got the BBQ lovers pizza, the Pad See Ew and the snickers bar. The pizza and noodles were good, not great, but the Snickers bar won us over! We went back just for the Snickers bar and asked our server for an entree recommendation - they recommended the Mostly Greens bowl with satay sauce - also amazing! We went back a few times just to get that combo. Hands down the two best things on the menu. Definitely give them a try!
