Great for a toastie - Edit
Great little place that is 100% vegan. I ordered two sandwiches. The mushroom is definitely a must try. Would be keen to try the pancakes but would love to see more brekkie options

Best lamb wrap I’ve ever had - Edit
I came on 2 separate occasions and got Reuben’s vegan brother Steve, as well as the Poke bowl and the lamb wrap (both of which I shared with my friend). All three were delicious, but the lamb wrap was by far my favorite! I also got the brownie, the carrot cake, and the caramel slice, all of which were fantastic. The lamb wrap and caramel slice probably take the cake for me!!
Read moreAlso, the service here is excellent, and there’s napkins and tap water that you can get as you please.

Eat here for breakfast - Edit
I had the big breakfast and it was amazing and so filling. This is located near the central train station and has seating inside and out. The omelette is great and is made with cheese that melts. The coffee is good too!

fine but a bit expensive - Edit
I would say this place is just FINE. Ordering is easy, via a QR code, and the options look good, but often come in smaller portions than the pictures on the menu.
Read moreYou can customise things pretty well but it all comes with a cost, and I think $5 for one cut up sausage on the side is pretty steep. The food here was good but I've eaten in more creative and thoughtful vegan places for the same price, so I'd say it's just fine.

Can’t wait to go again - Edit
Lovely coffee (tried decaf first time) for a good price.
Read moreFriendly and helpful Service.
lovely seating outside in a quiet street.
Had the eggles omelette which was decent. Melted cheese inside and Parmesan on top. Salad dressing stole the show though. Omelette could have been hotter and more seasoned.
Food looks great overall (sandwich and wrap at other table). Agree that the salad and other dishes vary in size.
Omelette and salad were rather small. Sandwich looks big
Can’t wait to go again.
They have baked goods too and also a little deli with cheese, bars and drinks to buy. Everything vegan here #Veganuary

Mamma Mia I’m obsessed - Edit
I usually don’t trust reviews from vegan cafés or restaurants. They are usually overpriced and not that good. And I’m saying that as 5 year vegan. But today I went to Shift Eatery and omg that Lamb & Tzatziki Wrap blew my mind. So good, the sauce, the greens, the meat. Everything perfectly seasoned. I’d only have added more sauce to it as I’m a saucy girl hahaha
Read moreWith it I had the Mocha with oat milk and that was just a pretty good regular coffee for me.
It was 20.90$ for the wrap and 5.17$ for the mocha. A bit pricy but I guess that’s Australia generally

Consistently delicious - Edit
I’ve been to Shift several times, and it never disappoints. Their vegan Thai salad is delicious —fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. Whether it’s a quick lunch or a breakfast , it always hits the spot. Consistently great food and a reliable go-to!.
Read moreTheir vegan “bacon and egg” bagel is also great.

Delicious food, proudly vegan café - Edit
Found this place on HappyCow and was very pleasantly surprised to see lots of familiar brands being sold here, including Karma Cola, Vego bars and Nomo chocolate! I bought a delicious vegan ham and cheese toastie with generous portions of vegan ham, cheese and mayo. The bread was super fluffy on the inside, and crispy on the outside 🤤 Bought a few Vego bars for the road too 😋 100% of the menu is vegan, and they also support Moo to Ewe Sanctuary and have photos of some of the residents on display ❤️ Great to find such a #proudlyvegan place for my first meal in Sydney! #veganaustralia #vegantravel #vegansydney

Vegan omelet🍽️ - Edit
Delicious vegan cafe🫶
Read moreI wanted to get a vegan salmon bagel sandwich but they were sold out so I ordered a vegan omelette instead.
It was so delicious! Next time, my order will be a vegan omelet and hot chocolate.
I also bought some carrot cake to take home.
It's so tasty that I end up eating it all in one go, so I wish it was a little smaller🐷
