Everyday I am beyond amazed of all the incredible vegan options there are currently available, not only world wide - but specifically here in AUSTRALIA!
Perth is a fast paced, major city in Western Australia and is coming out with more vegan options everyday - not only in the supermarkets, but I'm also talking about cafes and well known restaurants accomodating for vegans too.
There are not only a number of places that specifically cater for vegans/vegetarians, but recently many large chain restaurants and eateries have come out with an increasing number of vegan options - isn't that amazing?!
I am asked quite frequently of the places that I recommend to eat out at in Perth, and while I am no massive 'foodie', I'd like to think that I have a pretty good idea of some of the better places 🙈
Okay, so lets get in to it...!
NOTE:
This is just a list of a few of my favourite places to eat out as a vegan in Perth (no particular order). But also remember as veganism is becoming more and more mainstream - so many places would be more than willing (even places that don't particularly list vegan options on their menu) to accomodate for your dietary requirements if you just let them know before hand :)
MY TOP 10 VEGAN EATS IN PERTH, WA:
Firstly, this place probably;y has the most GORGEOUS food you will ever eat!! You can honestly tell how much love goes into every single dish served at this tiny little cafe tucked away in Northbridge. Although it may be small, it sure has mighty good food! With regular changing menus and pretty much 100% vegan food, as well as DELICIOUS vegan and gf treats - this place no doubt places in my top 10 favourites...
Maple baked beans and Mushroom bagel
BEST BANANA BREAD on the planet!
One thing that I LOVE about Perth Organic Kitchen, is that absolutely none of their dishes or ingredients are processed or refined! They also cater for a range of diets; from vegan, vegetarian, omni and even children friendly too, so it makes it a great place to eat out with friends or family that may not be vegan.
Not only do they have such a delicious and diverse menu, they also have a massive selection of treats, desserts, salads, meals (pretty much everything) made daily to choose from in their fridge and cabinet - as well as daily specials that never fail to make me drool 🤤
(from left to right: best GREENS BOWL you'll ever try, ACAI BOWL and my all time favourite - oil free MACRO BOWL)
Not only does this cafe have an almost 100% plant based menu.. But what I love is they also have the most convenient little shop tucked away at the back, filled with loads of vegan goodies ranging from food, snacks, staples, supplements, beauty and and skin care and household products. They also hold many events and workshops which I am yet to try!
I absolutely love the rage of fresh produce they use in their food and drink, they also label all of the ingredients in their dishes (not that there is anything to hide anyway!) they offer a wide range of breakfast/brunch options, warm meals, smoothies, juices and the most amazing looking treats!
Their warm meals are simply so wholesome and delicious! My favourite is the chickpea curry 😋
Okay, this place is hands down my ALL TIME FAVOURITE place to get Acai or smoothie bowls!! and that is some pretty tough competition...
Ohana means family, and when you go here you truly feel apart of their Hawaiin tribe! The staff are so so kind and accomodating to any requests, plus they have now just made their bowls 100% compostable - how amazing is that?! And how can I not mention the food... oh my, literally so many AMAZING options; from Acai to greens bowl with all the toppings you could wish for! They also have a range of delicious smoothies and warm drinks as well. And even better - during winter they release their warm winter Acai bowl (which I am also yet to try!!)
and as you can probably tell... I go here quite frequently 😝
This place not only has such an incredible menu, but they also offer amazing workshops, lectures, function/wedding hire, consultations and yoga practice as well as a 100% zero waste store! Now how amazing is that?!
The first thing I have to say is that the venue is absolutely beautiful, the perfect place for as special night out or lunch date, with a prime focus on healthy and sustainable living. I haven't been here too many times for food - but I swear I go here on a regular basis to check out their amazing eco store!
Now, I've only been here once but that one visit was enough to pout it on my top list! Their menu is probably one of the cleanest in Perth, using on pure, raw wholefood ingredients, free from artificial additives. They also focus a lot on adding superfoods into as many of their dishes as possible - which is absolutely amazing!
As well as providing wholesome and delicious food, they also have an inshore shop and offer various events and workshops ranging in all things nutrition & lifestyle!
Now with TWO stores here in Perth (Vic Park and the new Fremantle Store), this 100% vegan cafe and mini will literally BLOW YOUR MIND! They offer a wide variety of vegan food ranging from hot dishes, meals, desserts, drinks and much more! If you are looking to indulge - I definitely recommend here!
"Loving Hut is one of the largest families of vegan restaurants in the world. We have more than 200 outlets in major cities all over the world, with international locations spanning across multiple countries in Asia, Europe, North America, Central America, South America, Australia and New Zealand."
Right on the beautiful Swan River, this authentic all you can eat Indian Buffet is definitely one to go to when in Perth. They go by the saying "eat until your heart is content, and pay what your heart desires" - meaning that what you pay is completely up to you!
You can also become a volunteer and work with the beautiful family owned business, send in donations and they even offer catering services where they will deliver to your venue - now how amazing is that?!
Situated right on the beautiful South Perth Foreshore, The Acai Corner is a food truck founded by a couple inspired to bring this amazing 'Acai' back to Australia from discovering it on their travels. Also, with the most kind hearted staff, you could never turn down one of these fresh, healthy, natural Acai bowls or smoothies with their homemade granola!
They also have the most convenient set top with bean bags, umbrellas nasal picnic rugs - the perfect spot to relax with the family or after a walk by the water. This place will definitely always be one of my go to's!
Manna Wholefoods is a small, local business specialising in fresh organic produce, organic groceries, natural, raw, gluten-free, vegan and often hard to source items and groceries for special diets. Their shop is filled to the brim with anything and everything you could ever need! And their cafe has the most fresh, wholesome food made daily by such a lovely community of people!
Another thing I love about Manna is that they replaced single use plastic bags more than 10 years ago! Now how's that for making a change!
And here are some other places that I am yet to visit (but look so incredibly delicious 🤤)
Lots of love as always,
