Delicious!

I’ve been here quite a few times. Tonight we ordered from the Mexican menu (apparently it depends on the chef who is there if it is available.) I ordered the classic burrito and shared the Mexi chips with my partner. The burrito was nice and filling. Quite spicy. My partner enjoyed the nachos.

There are no seats but we sat in flagstaff gardens and ate.

Great vegan fast food option

Grabbed a chick’n burger on my way past the station on a long run, preferred this over the parma burger I had recently. The burger and the crumbed chick’n were very nice.

Pros: Chick’n burger nice , 100% vegan fast food

Making a difference

I mean it’s fast food, what do you expect. What matters is that they are located at spots where normally franchises promoting animal cruelty would be. Gotta thank the "Lord" for making a difference in the world!:)

Dim sims and hotdog were spot on

Perfectly cooked dim sims were super tasty.
And the hotdog was fresh and yummo. #Veganuary

Pros: Freshly cooked, Fresh bread for hot dog

Always nailing it 💪🏻

Love LOTF! First time trying it in Melbourne and didn’t disappoint😄this time I got the HSP and The Lot Burger 🍔
Highly recommend both, but the burger definitely stood out! So much crammed into one burger, you’ll get your moneys worth for sure!

Pros: Relatively budget friendly , Quality consistently good, Quick

Yummy

I love LOTF. If you like garlic, definitely go for their Parisian sauce and I also recommend the shoestring fries. The chick’n was tasty, though I wouldn’t have expected the nugget texture since they’re advertised as being drumstick 🍗 style. Already looking forward to getting LOTF again.

Meh

If you’re stuck and there isn’t much else around, then this will do the job but other than that go elsewhere. 10 years ago this was elite but not so much anymore with average burgers that are overpriced. They also seem to hire as few people as possible making waits for food a joke.

Pretty good

Located upstairs at the train station - no seating. We couldn’t resist one last LOTF hit before we headed downstairs to the airport bus. Just what you’d expect from LOTF - no frills fast food. Although it wasn’t the fastest (about 10 min wait) so keep that in mind if you’re in a rush.

Pros: 100% vegan Melbourne icon

Cons: kinda expensive for what it is

Tasty but overpriced Junk Food

Tasty but overpriced Junk Food. Prices are in very small text.

Obviously being a stand, there's no seating in an incredibly windy location.


If this is (and 2 other LoTFs) are the 3 of the 10 _BEST_ vegan restaurants in Melbourne, I think that says how bad Melbourne's vegan scene is.

Updated from previous review on 2021-05-23

Pros: Vegan

Cons: Often slow service, Expensive, No seating

It okay

I wouldn’t say it was worth the hype but considering the limited options in Melbourne it’s good.

Pros: Lots of options, Reasonable price

Cons: Pretty average

Quick, Convenient and Cheap

The food is descent and the Waffle Chicken sandwich is 🔥🔥🔥. A good early morning and late night as well. If you pressed for time or need an after bar snack, this is great.

Convenient location & opens early

Lord of the Fries is in my Top 3 favourite fast food chains in the world. This outlet was exceptionally pleasant.

Open early for your brekky!

This branch opens earliest (8:30 am), so I had my breakfast before hopping on a train to explore Melbourne's surroundings. The breakfast combo is a good deal, the bacon&egg muffin was surprisingly good (I wonder how they make the egg!), and so was the hash brown. Junk food, but sometimes you just need it.

Pros: Inexpensive, Open for breakfast, Great choice

Cons: Typical fast food - not everybody's thing, I was a bit struggling to find it

Food good but service incredibly slow

Lots of choice for vegan junk food. The quality has really gone downhill and is hit and miss. The service is so slow. Definitely not fast food.

Pros: Lots of choice

Cons: Slow, Quality not consistent

Not bad mushroom burgers

We had the mushroom meat burgers and they were not bad. This place is overpriced for what they offer though. Staff were nice and helpful.

Pros: Not bad mushroom meat burgers.

Cons: Overpriced, Hit and miss with taste

The Best Ever

Lord of the Fries just get everything right.

The location is PERFECT and also naughty because I used to have to come through this station on my way to work and just couldn't walk past without getting something! The food is always hot and fresh, the staff are lovely and the menu is perfect and all vegan.
Never had any complaints with this store or any LOTF.

Pros: All vegan, TASTY, They sell BEYOND BURGERS

One of the better locations

Ah Lord of the Fries... a vegan heaven. This branch is particularly good and one I have visited many times due to working close by. The nuggets have recently changed due to supplier issues and aren't as great anymore.. but do yourself a favour and get the Phish in a wrap. My absolute go-to with the introduction of wraps and combos etc, and I have tried 90% of the menu. Also treat yourself to the HSP and the poutine/loaded poutine... omg yes. They use barely any plastic which is great, apart from the little sauce containers (ask for sauce on top to avoid this), the shakes and some bottled beverages. Avoid where you can everyone, save the planet! BYO containers etc ❤🌻

Pros: 100% vegan, Vegan fast food! The dream!, Barely any plastic used.. ask for sauce on top

Cons: No seating at this location , Can sit in the food hall across the way, Sometimes long waits due to being at the station

Tasty dirty vegan food!

Definetely a place for hungover dirty vegan food! The "chicken" nuggets were delish, the burger was ok, a little dry and the bread could have been nicer if it was brioche or something similar. Sweet potato fries were nice!

Pros: Everything is vegan

Amazing

Real vegan fast food with delicious options, the shakes and burgers were my favourites. I wish we had something like this in Chile.
