Stupendous sausage roll

We were glad to find this spot for a quick breakfast on the go! They had a vegan sausage roll, and we went a quick 5 minute walk away to eat it on a nearby bridge!

Good Croissants

The croissant was good. The hot chocolate could also be prepared vegan. We were informed that the chai syrup contained milk powder. The surroundings were noisy, but otherwise it was nice.

Vegan croissants 😍

The seating area is crowded, in the middle of the shopping mall - but the croissants are yummy!

Very average

We got the mushroom lentil pie and a raspberry croissant. Both were very underwhelming. To be honest, it kind of felt like a waste of calories. There are much better options in Sydney.

Delightful place right in the middle of the QVB

Vegan options like raspberry croissants, banana bread, and veggie pies, baked fresh in the morning. I had a croissant right out of the oven. Excellent flat whites, too. Check out their expert latte art.

Great coffee, great croissant

Very happy with the decaf latte I had and the vegan raspberry croissant. It's a noisy environment, right in the middle of a small shopping centre but other than that I'd recommend it!

Perfect little spot incthe city

Wifi, vegan banana bread and croissant, vegan pie and sausage roll. In the middle of the QVB mall, perfect spot for a coffee or to do some laptop work while watching passer-by’s. Open til 6pm, not 5pm, according to google. Keen to try the pie and sausage roll next time

Vegan baked goods

I had a vegan croissant and it was perfect. They have clearly labelled vegan baked goods (including a mushroom lentil pie, sausage roll and banana bread).

Pros: Vegan options are clearly labelled, Variety of vegan options, Reasonable prices for the area

Cons: Not all vegan/vegetarian, Located in the middle of QVB so it’s noisy

Delicious croissant in central location

Loved the raspberry croissant! I also had a delicious porridge which hit the spot on a cold day. Very convenient location to grab a coffee and croissant or banana bread. There are vegan items marked, and some of the regular menu can be made vegan.
If you decide to sit in, it is in the middle of the ground floor, so there is hustle and bustle around, but it’s also wonderful to see the world going past!

Nice vegan breakfast :)

We came here for a light vegan breakfast and had some very tasty vegan raspberry croissants with oat milk latte. Beautiful setting with places to sit and enjoy the architecture and the tasty food. Everything is clearly labelled if it’s vegan which is great.

Constantly increasing vegan range

I am excited with their hard work on getting more vegan options in the range. They cover it pretty well - pies, croissants, puddings, rolls, banana bread etc. And it all is very tasty! Highly recommend!

Pros: Wide range of vegan options, relatively low prices

Cons: Gone after lunch time
