I ordered the cauli steak which was incredibly delicious. Various textures and flavours worked so well together, and it was full of flavour. Service was great too.

Popped by here on the way home after a day of diving and can confirm it's a must visit for vegan food lovers! The cafe/shop has a range of healthy treats from great lunch options to cakes/cookies and smoothies. Had myself the hotdog and the...high roller smoothie with protein. Will visit again!More

I'm not vegan, but the food is delicious. Tried the feta style cheese and the fake bacon. Delicious. But even better was their coffee. I alway have their wombat blend milk. Coffee is full bodied and I'd never know there was no dairy except for...the little hint of coconut which lingers in the mouth. It was so good and such a surprise that I ordered another. Whenever I'm in the area I go just for the unusual coffee.More

Have been going here since it opened. Unfortunately the last couple of times we have been it was not nearly as good. My long black coffee tasted and looked like dirty water and my husbands latte was not much better. The food was also lacking....So disappointed as it was our Favourite.More

This is a vegan delight and as such you will find no regular milk for your latte- so it is different ! I tried the oat option - can u call it oat milk? Perhaps not. Have to say it was a little bland for...my taste- but for those who are long black orders there’s no need to decide on soy, almond or oat options! Ours was a coffee stop and a hummingbird muffin was tempting - but was incredibly rich and easily shared by two! All day breakfast options for hearty appetites are well catered for - I saw a three tier banana pancake stack with mixed berries & maple syrup AND coconut vanilla ice cream pass by— you need a hearty appetite here! So for tofu lovers and other vegans this is foodie heaven - for others — well it’s different!More

usually get their buddha bowl or wrap and a coffee and it never disappoints. A perfect way to stop for breakfast or lunch if you're down the peninsula. Attentive staff and lovely outdoor area with beanbags.

I visit wombat regularly and every drink & dish is so extraordinary that I often go home and try and make these dishes. Their unique vegan and vego recipes are delicious and inspirational. Great vibe. Amazing food. Dedicated and attentive staff. Love!

Knowing it is a vegan cafe does not automatically mean that you assume you cannot bring your own coffee containing milk (real milk not vegetable sap). I had been here previously, great food, and was looking forward to coming back. First time I did not...buy a coffee - I have tried all the vegan alternatives to milk in my coffee and I don't like them, so I had to wait until after my meal - fair enough. But this time in anticipation, my vegan wife insisted on going next door and getting me my preferred drink which happens to contain real milk. No sooner did she return than the activist waitress was into her about bringing milk into a vegan cafe. Apparently all the people wearing leather shoes and carrying leather handbags were welcome but we were made to feel marginalised and somehow guilty of a capital crime for quietly reaching a small compromise for one in our group. Maybe I am being too sensitive about this, maybe I'm being unreasonable (I can understand it being taken to extremes with someone bringing their own burger for example), but the active enforcement of ones religion onto others is not the Aussie way and I don't think a sign or a quiet suggestion about next time was not an unreasonable expectation on how to deal with it instead of marginalising customers that clearly at least largely accept your preferences. I look forward to seeing the 'leather free zone' sign on your door next time I go next door for my coffee.More

My 5 year old grandson and I popped in recently for lunch as we were on the peninsula and as a vegan I was excited to try the food here .Its easy to find , parking out front and lots of seating .. On enquiring...the staff taking my order said there was no childrens menu but I could be provided a box to take home what was not eaten. Not really acceptable as we were out for the day , anyway the pancakes and a milkshake for him $$$ broccoli and cheese pie and bottled tap water for me $.. Disappointing ....More

Wombat cafe is amazing. Since discovering it I have been many times. The options are endless and everything is delicious. Even my sister who isn’t vegan loved it. Can’t recommend it highly enough and the ‘Eastlink’ smoothie is definitely a favourite.

The staff are wonderful and the atmosphere is very cute. We had an avo smash with tomatoes and cashew cheese and a serve of the nachos. Both so filling and flavoursome. Will definitely return
