Best place for vegan food in Bendigo!

This place easily has the best range and quality of vegan options in the area. The ready to go sandwiches are a great option for a take away meal on the go (The V-Licious is my personal favourite) and the cookies are amazing! They seem to have a vegan option for every type of food they serve and they use ingredients that you can't really find anywhere else in Bendigo (like almond fetta and smokey tofu bacon)

Pros: good variety of vegan options, delicious baked goods, convenient

Cons: inside of the cafe is small

Numerous vegan options

Had a great lunch here recently. Numerous vegan options: mostly pre-made salads which looked quality. My wife enjoyed her salad. I had a green curry soup with noodles, tofu and vegetables which was just outstanding. Would definitely return.

Pros: A number of vegan options , Great food and service , Nice cafe setting right near organic grocery

Cons: Bit of a wait as they were getting slammed

Nice atmosphere

Cool and comfortable space with excellent customer service. Quite a few vegan options to choose from and the staff were more than happy to take is through them all. House made hot chocolate is also vegan.

Nice spot in the new garden courtyard

Tasty food at the cafe and good produce in the store. The store is a great place to buy wet vegan chai and other speciality goods. The cafe is great for quick, fresh vegan meals and muffins.

Good choices

Plenty of choice and friendly staff. There's a new outside area the other side of the shop, with outdoor heaters and though it was still a bit sparse when we ate there, they are greening it with lots of plants.

Pros: Options, Plenty of seating now, Very central for Bendigo shopping

Cons: Not cheap, but worth it

Great, healthy choice

I love that the Wholefoods kitchen collects its produce from their store just next door. Everything is fresh and tasty. You’ll pay a lot for it though.

Pros: Tasty, Lots of vegan and veg options

Cons: Expensive

Tasty but pricey

I know we all pay the vegan price for food, and you can’t complain when it’s really tasty, but at $20 for one panacotta, that was pushing the friendship. I also got a zucchini muffin which was amazing. Taste the love, forget the prices.

Pros: Vegans rejoice, plenty of options, Really tasty, Quick service

Cons: Pricey, Can be cold to sit outside in winter

Vegan Doughnut a Standout

Sampled the Seitan Stroganoff and Chickpea Curry, both very nice. I was a little put off by the bain-marie style service but food was hot tasty and fresh. The sour cherry doughnut we chose for desert was the star of the show though! Chewy, sticky, dense and not to sweet. Big thumbs up.

Pros: Enough vegan options , Great deserts, Attached supermarket

Cons: Bain-marie style serving , Limited seating

Favourite spot in Bendigo

Been here so many times it probably ridiculous, Whole bowls change seasonally and there is always a multitude of vegan pies and wraps ect in the display cabinets, as well as cakes, muffins and balls. Plus next door is wholefoods shop to buy all your essentials (and some non essential things cos vegan marshmallows are so fun!)

Pros: Exotic options, Healthy meals + treats, Amazing latte range - beetroot, tumeric, matcha

Cons: Hard to get a seat, Always busy

I could eat here for every meal

So many vegan options on the menu! Plus lots of baked goods such as cakes, donuts and slices. I got banana bread which came with coconut yoghurt and heaps of other toppings and it was absolutely delicious!! I'd love to go back and try every single vegan thing they sell. There's also a market next door with a ton of stuff. My favourite cafe in Bendigo.
