Food is great - coffee is outstanding

100% vegan food and sweets which is always appreciated!

Everything is delicious 🤤 But my favourite thing are their coffees! The staff is friendly and efficient.

It used to be too loud so I’m glad they have turned the music down so you can have a conversation.

Best toasted vegan sandwiches in Sydney

Great little place, 100% vegan and everything I tried here was really delicious. The toasted sandwiches are awesome but also healthier options (bowls) are really yummy. Good coffee and great vegan hot chocolate. One of the best places in Sydney for vegan breakfast!

Pros: 100% vegan, great food, very friendly staff, good , coffee

Cons: A bit pricey but worth the money

Amazing

Tried a few smoothies - delicious. Had the famous bagel - the 'egg' was amazing. Tried a few toasties as take away and kept really well for lunch - they were super yummy. Have yet to try the brownie I picked up and will go back tomorrow for more food.

Pros: Everything is vegan

Love this place!

I’ve tried multiple things on the menu, everything is really good! A little on the expensive side and not many places to sit but good when you’re craving a faux meat toastie or sub 😻

Amazing Service

Though I haven't had the opportunity to eat here yet, I wanted to review them for their amazing service. They went out of their way to help me organize a gift card for my friend in Australia (I live in the USA). They were very accommodating, responsive and helpful. They helped me keep the surprise by printing the voucher and mailing it to my friend instead of the usual way of emailing it. I can't wait to visit on my next trip to Australia.

Delicious Brunch

Cozy cafe with lovely customer service. We came here for brunch on a Saturday, wanting to try the famous bacon and egg (Vegan) burger. Unfortunately when we arrived there (11 am) it had already sold out.

Our first time here, we had the delicious vegan salmon bagel and mushroom toastie. Both were absolutely delicious. The salmon bagel really did taste like salmon! Coffee was fantastic as well 👍

We'll definitely come back!

Pros: Entire menu was vegan friendly, Good customer service, Fresh ingredients

Another great feed!

Service is also so quick here which is great as I have very short lunch breaks.
Today I tried the buffalo sub and loved it, would have licked the plate if it didn’t make me look weird 😊

Pros: Loads of options, Great chefs, Vegan cakes!

Cons: Wish they were open even earlier for the am crowd

Amazing!

The cafe is in a great location, easily accessible from Central Station. The food is incredible; reasonably priced for the size of the meal and so tasty! The staff are super friendly and there's always a great atmosphere here. It can get really busy but the staff handle the crowds well, and despite the queues, wait times are still reasonable. Definitely worth the wait if it's busy! They have a lot of menu options, plus lots of yummy looking baked goods and refrigerated products for sale. A must try if you're in the area and haven't eaten here before.

Pros: Great location, wheelchair accessible , amazing food and customer service.

Yes. Just yes.

Everything is vegan and everything I’ve tasted there is delicious! Love their toasted sandwiches (favourite is Reuben’s Vegan Bro Steve), also their drink options.

Pros: Everything is delicious , Toasted sandwiches are amazing, Only a minute or so walk from Central station

Cons: Queues can be a bit crazy (cos they’re so good)

Shift eatery

This place opened last week. This amazing place was really rocking, many diners has limited out side seating.
I had a berry nice smoothie had raspberries, strawberries, vanilla, almond milk and coyo. $10.
For eats had Big Bad Bowl w/ quinoa, roasted veggies, smoked beans, house made kale slaw, sauerkraut and hommos. $18.it was deeeelicious.
The eatery serves a variety of salads, toasted sandwiches with various fillings.
They make their own cheeses, vegan bacon and a first for me vegan EGG.
Serves coffees and teas.
Got the Happy Cow sticker. Vegans please try at least once you wont be disappointed.
Revisited today was knocked out by the service and food. Had a smoked tofu and miso salad came with greens, cabbage, kale, carrot, cherry tomatoe, cucumber, sprouts, sesame seeds topped with a miso and ginger dressing. Delicious $14. My berry nice smoothie had raspberries, strawberries, chia seeds, almond milk and coconut water. $10. Their raw cheese was to die for $9. Got a double Happy Cow sticker. Please vegans and ppl moving to a plant based diet try this once, twice or thrice.
Revisited with my partner. We had salad bowl with mixed lettuce, roasted chick peas with masala, pumpkin, rice/quinoa, cherry tomatoes, coriander and coconut yoghurt.
Gimme dat protein banana, peanut, cacao/ coconut milk. Hot cacao soy mylk. Fig, apple, and walnut tart. All was delicious, in my top 5 best vegan eatery. Bill $36.
Vegans and vegheads get here u must try once, twice.

Updated from previous review on 2018-04-18
Revisited thís great eatery had a Ruben Sandwich has sauerkraut, gherkin, cheese toasted. Mushroom, cheese toasted sourdough sandwich. A blueberry smoothie and a mango, tumeric smoothie followed by a wonderful blueberry and matcha cheese cake. $50 approx total. Once again if u haven't tried Shift's food u are crackers, get there and indulge ur body.
This vegan icon hasn't dropped the tofu. Had a SuperFood Salad quinoa, kale, cashew cheese, mixed green salad, cherry tomatoes, sweet potatoes, walnuts sprinkled basalmic dressing. $15 was delicious. Finished with a Gimme Dat Proteon smoothie banana, peanut butter, cacao and coconut milk. $10 again delicious. Worthy of ten *****.

Updated from previous review on 2018-07-30
Revisted during CCP covid yep plenty of social distancing only allowed 9 inside and 6 outside.
we had mushroom sandwich and a Reubens both delicious followed with a mango lassie(bit disappointed it was frozen and not able to taste the various fruits and skinny plastic straw was hard to suck through) and hot choc and choc muffin.
Highly recommended for the Reubens.

Pros: 100% plant based vegan, Home made ingredients, Excellent and delicious food

My daily

Entirely vegan cafe with a focus on making their own success and meat substitutes. Cannot rate the bacon and egg bagel and chipotle mayo enough.
Have some vegan products for sale in their fridges, pastry cabinet and pantry items.

Pros: Such friendly staff and delicious food.
