Hi Guys,

I am coming to Melbourne for Christmas (between Christmas and New Years actually).

Just wondering what Vegan stuff there is to do while we are there?

Vegan shops/places to eat etc...

Thanks in advance happy

A trip to the city will have you covered, there are lots of vegan restaurants and we have a vegan shop I think too. I'll let someone else answer because, although i'm in Melb, i'm not near the city so haven't had the pleasure of a lovely vegan trip yet.

The first things that come to mind though:

Lord of the fries (chips and burgers)
Veggie Bar (veg restaurant with lots of options)
Lovin' hut (asian food)
And there are a few lentily places

I'm not sure what our vegan shops are called, and may have the restaurant names wrong too as it is 2am and i'm suffering from wanting to sleep but my brain not letting me. tongue

If you want a big road trip there's Edgars Mission in kilmore..but I am not sure if they are doing any more events or going to any markets in that time.

There's a vegetarian/vegan shop near Victoria Market in Melbourne.

Brunswick St at Fitzroy is excellent. There's a few really great places down there.
I think I also found a good little cafe at St Kilda but that was a couple of years ago and I dont know if it's still there.
Last time I was there I went to Lygon St sad That was an unfortunate event sad Next time I'll just stick to Brunswick St.

Is radical closing after christmas or after new years to move?

La Penella Bakery in Preston is pretty cool. Vegan pies, sausage rolls, donuts etc
