Amazing food and super cool aesthetic - Edit
The menu is wide and fancy but with affordable prices. Great happy hour deals. Conceptual bar, super cool aesthetic. Friendly staff. They play goth/alternative music, a bit too loud for my liking 😅

Vegan bourbon bar - Edit
This unique bar truly stands out with its eclectic mix of decor. Not only are the food prices incredibly reasonable, but the drinks are also expertly crafted and absolutely delicious. And it’s all vegan?

LOVE this Footscray hidden gem, it's a must visit. Great vegan food (omni friends loved it), awesome cocktails and atmosphere you won't find anywhere else. Staff are super friendly and happy to chat and give recommendations. Keep your Shazam handy to capture some of the cool tracks 🤣

Great space and delicious food - Edit
I came here tonight on the filthy baby night. I started with the Hot Goth Summer cocktail because how could I not. It was beautifully presented and refreshing. My friend and I shared chick’n popcorn and potato skins both which were really tasty. The potato skins were cripsy. I had the here fishy fishy burger with the mushroom. It was well flavoured and the music was cool.

So do I! I’m disappointed it took me so long to get here. They need some support. I will go again next week I think to try their other menu.

Great food, ambience/decor and cocktails - Edit
Love the goth themes and Lilith in general! (the original female rebel!)
Read moreGreat food and cocktails! most centered around the dark/rich/moody. Really liked the addition of the red wine to the Bloody Mary!
I had the: gnocchi, Caesar salad, wings, and pate. All were great.
Keen to go back to support this place.
Pros: all vegan, friendly service, cheeky goth decor
Cons: red lights makes it hard to take photos lol

It’s a great bar and the staff are friendly and cool. Best cocktail bar in Melbourne IMO. I’m feeling you re: photos. Everything turns out pink 😂

:) really like to attend their paint and sip night, gnocchi master class and other burlesque/rope theme nights. Hope this cool bar can survive. They mentioned on Facebook the struggles of being a small business. Hope these gals can continue to survive! Please consider going to support them if you can!

Yes I had heard that there was some uncertainty about the future of the space. We certainly should support it in any way we can. This is a genuine vegan business offering space to creative communities and it would be a tragedy if it were unable to continue.

Fabulous all-vegan bar - Edit
Love having this all-vegan bar in my neighbourhood. The food is delicious (especially the desserts!). My favourite main is the gnocchi and my favourite dessert is the chocolate tart. House spirits during happy hour are amazing value. Staff are lovely. Sometimes they run out of some of the meals, so worth thinking about back-up options when looking at the menu. Would love it if there were more non-mock meat mains on the menu, as mock meat isn’t my thing, would also love it if it were open for lunch with outdoor seating… Looking forward to my next visit and will make sure I save room for dessert!

Bloody fantastic! - Edit
I wasn't expecting much out of the food of Hail Lilith but it was actually so lovely and tasty. We loved everything we tried, my favourite was the gnocchi and my partner loved the carrots and scallopini most. The drinks were all a bit too out there for me, but really lovely the vibe of the place and how different it was from a lot of the places around Melbourne.
Read moreI thought the food was reasonably priced and I even saw some deals I.e. cheeseburger and Peroni for $20 which I thought was good. Will be coming back!

Amazing baked gnocchi - Edit
Standout was definitely the baked gnocchi with nduja cream. The gnocchi wasn't crispy as the description led me to believe, it was perfect.
Read moreThe crispy new potatoes were indeed beautifully crispy, it didn't come with a sauce, but luckily we had the spicy wings which came with ranch sauce that paired perfectly with the potatoes.
The mushroom pate was a little too subtle in flavour for me, and the crouton slices too thin. The spicy wings were the perfect level of spice for me, I would have liked them to be more crispy, and the fake meat used wasn't my favourite texture.
Pros: Baked gnocchi

Melbourne’s coolest cocktail bar - Edit
When a friend suggested we come here for drinks after dinner I had the excuse I’d been waiting for to take the trip across town and enjoy my favourite cocktail bar again. Not only can I relax in the intimate, cosy atmosphere, but I can also relax knowing that anything on the drinks list is vegan. I chose a couple of old favourites: the Hot Goth Summer, fresh and a little fruity with a pinch of black salt, and the Femme Fatale, with two gins layered, and dry, sour and sweet notes. The mood is set by the soft lighting, reddish glow, gothic decor and 90s music, usually on the rock or indie side. I’ve enjoyed a number of items from the menu, including one of the regular bottomless brunches, but on this occasion we snacked on the focaccia with bourbon butter, and the delicious black sesame hummus. (I love the simple twist on the standard version). I can’t think of a bar I enjoy more for a relaxed night out or a quiet social drink.

These guys know what they are doing. I love supporting local small vegan businesses so you have to make sure you get here :)
I’ll be back next time to try desert😜
Pros: Food. Wow, Great non alcho cocktails, Staff, atmosphere and vibe check

YUM - Edit
Loved this absolute gem! Awesome vibe, creative menu, great tunes and lovely staff. We tried the mushroom cerviche, crispy new potatoes, spicy wings, plus the chocolate tart - and we devoured it all too quickly to photograph. Can't wait to go back to try the rest of the menu!

Incredible atmosphere, mind-blowing dishes and delicious cocktails - Edit
We are in love with this place! We have been 4-5 times and each visit is better than the last. The vibes and decor are very bloody cool- super grunge and gothic, which makes for an awesome date scene or dinner with friends.
Read moreThe menu is perfectly priced (we find it amazing that the prices are so affordable at the $10-$20 mark for essentially fine dining that is also vegan and can be enjoyed in a funky bar setting with emo bangers). And there’s so much creativity with each menu item too! We also LOVE visiting to try each weekly special.
A new favourite local spot of ours and we can’t speak highly enough of the owners. They are incredible at making it such a welcoming space!! We love it.
Pros: Creative and innovative dishes, Delicious cocktails, Very unique decor

Hail Footscray! There's a new bar in town... - Edit
..and all plant based!
Read moreHow very exciting to come across this bar on social media (and then of course on HappyCow). The community is buzzing, and not just the vegan community!
This little hidden bar is warm and cozy, with some couch seating as well as tables. It was loud, but I suppose you might expect that at a bar (that was pretty full).
The menu is small, but has some really interesting options including the watermelon carpaccio. Everything we had was really good. The burger was really tasty and filling, the wings had a nice texture and not overly sweet.
The staff were lovely, welcoming and helpful.
