Fully vegan menu with add-ons

Great place to take your non-vegan friends as everything on the menu is vegan but they can add meat or dairy if they wish so they don't get upset with you. Great selection of beers too.

Pros: All-vegan menu with add-ons options

Cons: In Fortitude Valley

The best

One of my absolute favourite places to eat. I’m making my way through the menu and haven’t found anything I don’t love.

Five stars for sure!

Always a great night here. The food is SO GOOD, although it’s hard to find somewhere to sit on Friday & Saturday nights so better to go in off-peak times if you wanna enjoy a meal (it’s worth it though!). Great arcade games, rad artwork & music, and a very inclusive, fun atmosphere. An absolute must-do in Brissy.

Pros: incredible vegan junk food, vegan by default - extra charges for meat & cheese, awesome venue

Favourite place ever

I wish I could give this place 5 stars, it’s my favourite food ever. Vegan menu with omni options, the best craft beer and every board and arcade game you can imagine. This place is by the people, for the people - everyone is welcome and you’ll never want to leave. Get the cauliflower wings or the tempura mushrooms (or both) and an IPA and you’ll have yourself a great afternoon

Pros: Vegan menu as standard, Best rotating beer taps, Fab staff

All vegan menu with pub food

The menu is all vegan, which is really cool but everything on the menu is fried. I had the burger with the black bean patty and a side salad which was pretty good!

Pros: All vegan menu, Fun arcade games, Lots of boardgames

Cons: Everything on the menu is fried , No healthy options

This is a vegan place & should be 5 stars

For those who are vegan solely for health reasons, this isn’t really the place. But for people who love burgers, chips and all sorts of sumptuous fried goodies, this is seriously the best place in Brisbane.

This should be listed as a vegan restaurant. *Everything* on the menu is vegan. Just because non-vegans have some options to modify some items doesn’t make the place non-vegan.

Pros: Everything is vegan unless someone asks otherwise, Good range, Very very tasty!

Cons: It’s burgers & fried stuff so not raw health food

Really cool space

Dinner with friends. Love that the menu is vegan default and that you have to pay extra for non vegan add ons.

Pros: Incredible selection of drinks. , Thoughtful menu. , Awesome atmosphere.

Cons: Really uncomfortable furniture. , Often seem to be out of menu items. , Super salty food.

Always beyond excellent!

By default the menu is vegan, with the option to add non-vegan items. But even my meat eater husband orders straight vegan when we go here as it's that good! Food comes in large filling portions, for great prices and the quality is excellent. Wish I could give 5 stars but the app won't let me as they aren't classified as fully vegan. Super great bunch of staff they have as well, and the arcade and bar make it the perfect date spot or just great for catching up with mates.

Amazing - Wish they would go Vegan.

All the items on the menu are defaulted to Vegan. However you can change it to a “carnivorous” version or a “dairy” version. Great atmosphere, hundreds of games to choose from, lots of vegan alcohol, the food was really good!

Pros: Lots of vegan food, Arcades, boardgames & card games, Great Atmosphere

Cons: Not a Vegan restaurant., Hard to find a table.

Five star!

I would give five stars if possible, as all of their menu has vegan as the default order. Typical bar food, great alongside their beers (which they mark as non-vegan if applicable). Takeaway options available too for my sister who was under 18 trying to get dinner after 5pm.

Pros: All items can be vegan, Simple, but tasty, Video games

Cons: Under 18 not allowed in after 5 pm as it is a bar, Limited seating, Can be noisy when busy

Mind blown

What a funky little place! Honestly the poutine was one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. So simple but so yum! The deep fried Oreos were spectacular and the garlic bread hotdog was to die for! 10/10 delicious. I don’t like how you can add non vegan stuff to your meals but I guess that’s just what they do for extra business. Still AMAZING and a really cool place to hang.

Would give five stars if I could best food and great atmosphere!

This place is amazing especially if you’re into retro games want to have a few drinks and down for some vegan food, the food here is all vegan but the option to make it non vegan is why it’s veg options

Pros: All vegan until made otherwise , GAMES

Ar-u-cading me?!

This place is cool. A bit loud, but an awesome idea. Love the arcade games and board games. Mostly one game is just too loud (the smash the round buttons game lol) so don't sit near it. Don't forget to play Crazy Taxi or Time Lapse. Staff is friendly. It's a busy place with great drink options. Mac n cheeze was amaaaaaaazing, but it seemed most other food options were very fried and salty, so prepare for that.

Pros: Great games, Easy to get to location, Awesome drink choices

Cons: A bit too salty and fried, Can be too loud, A bit cramped

Very Cool Place With Very Salty Food

Salt is, without doubt, the greatest thing that happened to food. I am trash for salt - I will eat Vegemite out of the jar as a treat. But the food at Netherworld is sometimes overwhelmingly salty - a common pitfall with vegan food & a common tactic at bars to get you to drink more. Luckily, the alcohol range is on point and always interesting. I'm a gamer and a nerd and the whole place is a hoot. There tonnes of retro arcade games and board games - it's a fun place to drink and let loose your inner child or unleash your outer geek. Do be warned, it can be difficult to snag a seat.

Pros: Great bar, Board & arcade games, Menu is vegan by default

Cons: Salty food

Vegan junk food- delicious

Not for the truly health conscious but delicious none-the-less. Burgers, dogs, sandwiches, sides- all vegan by default but can be made non-vegan by request (aka carnivore). Woo hoo my first international review!

Pros: All vegan by default, Quirky atmosphere, Friendly staff

Good food - okay place

The food is delicious. However, there is never enough seating, there are usually long weight times for food, and I swear every table there wobbles. It’s very difficult trying to snag a place to sit there- even mid-week. BUT the food is delicious...

5 stars (if I could give it 5!)

I love Netherworlds food so much. It’s an awesome concept to have the entire menu as default vegan, with customers having to request changes if they don’t want vegan. I’d love to know how many people have eaten the vegan options without even realising. The food, especially the burgers, are some of the best in QLD. Also, any tap beer that is not vegan is clearly labelled. Highly recommend!

Pros: All vegan, unless modifications are requested, Burgers are the best , Good price

Cons: That it’s not 100% vegan

My happy place

Seems a bit unfair I can’t give this place 5 stars given the base menu is completely vegan and others have to ask for animal products to be added. I love this concept because it’s making it easy for non-vegans to try and love vegan food. Everything on the menu rocks but my faves are the Brugatory and the Tempura Mushies which are incredible. Mac and cheeze also worth a mention along with Demon Drummies. Get amongst it. Play Galaga and Daytona while you wait. What could be better?!

So many options and everything is delicious! Though I wish they had more seating available and table service as it was awkward trying to find where to pick up the food from
