Vegie Bar

Vegie Bar sits on Brunswick Street in Fitzroy, one of Melbourne's most iconic and characterful inner-north neighbourhoods. A long-running, much-loved vegetarian and vegan restaurant, it's become a genuine Melbourne institution — renowned for its flavour-packed, creative plant-based cooking, a relaxed, buzzing atmosphere and a place at the heart of the city's veg-friendly dining scene.

The appeal is that combination of genuinely good, inventive vegetarian and vegan food, generous value and a lively, welcoming setting on the famous Brunswick Street, ideal for a casual meal, a group dinner or a satisfying plant-based feed. As one of the city's best-known and longest-running veg restaurants, it has broad appeal — to vegetarians, vegans and meat-eaters alike — and has kept its big, loyal crowd happy for years.

With a 4.4 rating from more than 3,200 reviews, it's clearly a firm favourite. Menus, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons, and a popular, often no-bookings restaurant gets busy, so it's worth checking current details before you go — and being ready for a wait at peak times — while looking forward to a flavour-packed plant-based meal at this Fitzroy institution.
