Good food a bit pricey

The food is great.
The day I visited, they had a ‘new’ menu and had to ask the kitchen what was available. I settled for the Dahl and it was delicious.
I also had an Aztec hot choc - yum!
The meals on the menu (the Dahl was on the specials board) were very expensive ($36 for a toasted sandwich or a hot dog or a burger)!
Most cakes were around $15 per slice!
There is also a grocery store downstairs.

Pros: Good options, Tasty food, Grocery options

Cons: Very expensive, They charge $1.00 extra for non dairy milk!!

Great gem in an area lacking in vegan food

Cozy couches, good ambiance, nice muffins. Loved the vibe of this place. A health foods store is attached which has non vegan and non vegetarian products😒but a nice little stop in a busy district

Velvety Smoothie

Loved the Anti Inflammatory Golden Mylk, velvety smooth and great flavour.
Lots of vegan cakes on offer in the glass cabinets, but not all are marked vegan in the bigger main cabinet, after asking we were told they were all vegan.
The cafe has a bit of a shabby chic old school vegetarian cafe vibe which can be a tight squeeze when full.
I had a look in their shop and the first thing I saw were dried whole fish dog teats hanging up and also meat dog treats.

Armchairs to sink into

They have a lovely variety of food. Everything I had was really good especially the turmeric protein shake. They also have a great little shop in the basement. And comfy armchairs

Not a place for everyone

When I travel, I always like to support vegan / vegetarian restaurants. That's what led me to this cafe. I had a burger and a juice. The juice was yum, but the burger was a complete disappointment. Considering I paid 22 USD for it, I think I get to complain about it. I got the falafel patty, with the coconut bun and a vegan egg. The vegan egg was just off (it tasted funny and the texture resembled more a French Madeleine than an actual egg), so I would not recommend it. As for the patty and the bun, they were hard and nothing extraordinary. I think I just missed their concept of food... So my conclusion is that this place is not for everyone. I would still recommend it if you're looking for a nice cafe to grab a coffee or a juice.

Pros: Extremely expensive

Cons: Juices are good

Also they charged extra for plan-based milks. Coming from a vegetarian place, this is unacceptable to me.

Good choice cafe

Lots of options for a healthy meal. I had the quiche, a salad and soya macha latte, and chocolate and coconut creamer pancake thing and was all very tasty, did set me back $50 but I think that's reasonable for 4 high quality items. Staff were well informed a d friendly.

Nice, regardless!

The cafe is closed for three weeks for renovations and no doubt it will be a great thing to experience when it opens. However, I am only travelling through and so had to be content with the tumeric latte and baked item that I purchased which I did find satisfying.

So. Many. Options

The cafe upstairs has so many fun vegan options including vegan “eggs”, VLT, pulled “pork”, and a large cabinet of healthy sweet treats. The store section is spread over two levels and has an array of vegan products, including health supplements, and organic fruit and veg. Casual vibe with comfy couches and plants.

Pros: Whole menu can be made vegan, Yum, Store attached

Laid back

This place is so nice, a cafe and a health food shop. Mostly vegan (the groceries and some of the food isn’t vegan), they sell hot food as well as groceries. I found agave here after almost a year of searching. I bought tvp curls which is great I needed it for dinner. 👏 I’ll be back to try the food next payday.
I had a lavender late it was different but I liked it.

Pros: Vegan food and groceries , Lovely staff , Great place easy to find

Plenty Flavourful Vegan Option

This cute cafe offers a lot of vegan choices, with basically everything in their menu can be personalised to almost all kind of dietary requirement you have. The "cheeze"burger was a delight and kept me coming back for more.
Seatings are spreaded around the cafe, and its always pleasant to browse around the grocery store while waiting for the food.
The staffs are friendly and will happily explains again what options they have.
A lot of grocery items they sell are suitable for vegans and probably has one of the largest brick-and-mortar vegan supplement range (nuzest, whitewolf, algae, etc)

Pros: Cute, wide range of vegan food, large grocery shop

Cons: Tend to fall on pricier side

Quirky cafe in a health shop

The cheeseburger was so good. Was spoiled for choice with so many vegan options. There wasn't much seating but we were the only ones there at the time so it wasn't an issue.

Amazing gem found in the heart of Kings Cross

Mouth-watering vegan, vegetarian, keto or gluten free cafe across the street from Kings Cross train station. Is a must go for all vegetarians or anyone who wants to enjoy organic and delicous food without the additives and refined sugars. It always has something for everyone.

Pros: Excellent food, Good value, Friendly staff

Quirky and healthy nuts

We were there on a Saturday morning, and the cafe was really busy. But we found a table amongst the quirky furniture and enjoyed lemon water on the table while we perused the menu.
Pancakes could be made with egg or without, and were high protein, tasty but dense.
The spinach tacos were fresh with tasty coleslaw filling and delicious black bean dip.
Both meals were massive (we could have had two meals out of one serve). The coffees were good, with almond milk and soy milk.
Great service with a smile and we noticed loads of locals popping in for assumably their usual weekend ritual.

Lots of options

The salad bar looks amazing, but we went for breakfast.
I had avocado on toast which was what it says on the tin. It was quite bland.
Hubby ordered the pancakes which were a bit stodgy but they werw nice.


I wish it was fully vegan!

Amazing place!

I have been here many times and I absolutely love it! Take away or eat in. Salads, ready meals, fresh coconut juice, raw vegan cakes, slices and juices. It’s inside a health shop that stocks fruit, veggies, herbs, spices, vegan ice creams, coconut oil, vegan items for the fridge, mills and so much more! It’s vegan heaven! The food is always amazing and I highly recommend this place.
