Soooooo delicious - Edit
What a great find! I had the vegan roti wrap and genuinely, it was one of the most delicious things I have ever eaten! I loved it. Will be going back again today. Well priced too. Only 4 stars as wasn’t vegan so I couldn’t.

5 The reviews are right! - Edit
They only have one vegan option, hence the 3.5 stars, but it is really good! It’s a tasty roti burrito filled with potato rice and veggies. You can choose your spice level too! At $14, it’s good value.

Good option - Edit
There isn’t anything strictly vegan or vegetarian open in Cairns at night. There is only one vegan option but it was very good. Nice staff. You could choose the filling from a mix of vegan options or have all combined (chickpeas, lentils and rice). We had them all combined. It was nicely flavoured.

Fast, casual and tasty - Edit
Would recommend roti shack for a quick eat that's going to fill you up and be tasty. The vegan option comes with all the fillings (all vegan) wrapped in a roti (burrito style). Quite cheap and there are seats outside and inside. I did ask for medium spice but couldn't taste anything so if you like spicy maybe ask for hot.

Amazing Roti! - Edit
This place does amazing Roti rolls that are effectively burritos. Everything is made fresh, and there are 3 different vegan curry options to pack your roti with!

A must eat spot! - Edit
Wow! We both got a vegan roti with all the fillings and mild chilli. Maaaannnnnnnn - SO good!! Beautiful, thin, soft roti. Really yummy fillings. Perfect size for a complete meal. So glad we found this place and absolutely well worth the visit!
Read moreWent back again for lunch a few days later - just as awesome/tasty. Great to have that reliability when you find a place with great food that hits the spot. If they went fully vegan they'd absolutely get five stars!!

Pros: The vegan fillings are all really yummy, Really good portion size, Fairly priced
Cons: Can be longish wait times, but still worth it!

Eat here and you will be happy - Edit
I ate the vegan roti and it satisfied my need for a solid hot meal. Was truly tasty! Genius invention - curry inside a roti, just like a kebab!
Read moreI would definitely eat there again.
They no longer sell individual roti bread.

Delicious Roti - Edit
5 different vegan fillings, or you can add them all! Roti bread was delicious, fillings were great. We went there twice and even got extra rotis to have for breakfast the next day. Cheap and easy meal too. They do get very busy sometimes so try to go a bit earlier in the night as they sometimes stop orders before closing once they’ve received too many.

Quick and filling - Edit
The vegan roti filling consists mainly of large chunks of potato, some chickpeas, cabbage, a smattering of other veg, in a yummy savoury sauce. The curry flavours are balanced, if a bit simplistic. I should get it with the Chili sauce next time to liven it up.
Read moreThe staff are very nice and there is a relaxed vibe inside with cool music.
Pros: Good value

Cheap, delicious and filling - Edit
We both ordered the vegan roti which was so yummy and filling. It has potato and veggies and curry. Only about $20 for both of us so it's a bargain. And it's not every day you can try some West Indian food!

Filling, cheap and easy - Edit
Only one vegan option, but more if you’re willing to remove ingredients. It’s pretty starchy and carb heavy, but will leave you feeling satisfied.

A filling and wholesome option - Edit
All the vegetarian curries are vegan, I chose one with mixed fillings (potato curry, rice, dahl, and chickpea curry) it was nice enough and filled me up, there was not a huge amount of flavour but I've found that a trend for the region. Service was very polite and fast.
