Louis - Fitzroy

We took our daughter on a Friday at 8 o'clock to her birthday. they are open at 7 o'clock. I was there and a guy who smoked a dhurry sat in front and said, "saving the person with the keys has not been dried"

The reviews on here don't give this place enough credit. Perhaps it's better now than it once was. Had an awesome vegan breakfast here. So delicious, so much food I couldn't eat it all! This will be my new breakfast haunt in Melbourne for sure!

Decent selection but some fairly similar, more diversity and dish styles would be good.

5/04/2021 I read in a review that the menu had changed so there were more vegan options so I walked up here for lunch. Perhaps the menu I saw was simplified for post covid. I was so happy that most of the options could be veganised. They did warn us that there would be a 30 minute wait. I ordered the pancake tacos. My partner had the breakfast. When they noticed we were still waiting they brought out a cake for us. That was kind of them. They had ran out of hash browns and so my partner opted for mushrooms. When the breakfast came out, there weren’t any mushrooms and I noticed my pancakes seemed to be missing the lemon balm and raspberry coulis. They were very busy and I think close to running out of food. It was all very tasty anyway and I’d love to try the burgers. Kind server. Jan 2021 I came here for lunch and checked what was vegan. You take a seat but then order at the counter. It’s a big space. I ordered a soy flat white first. It was a nice coffee. Then I had the gnocchi which looked small but was filling. I really liked the gnocchi but I think the sauce could have had a little bit more flavour but I liked the mushrooms. I’d like to try some other options.

I am sooo surprised by the other reviews this place was comfy and relaxed, had lovely staff and really delicious food with a great selection and interesting menu. I think they updated their menu recently and every thing on the menu was vegan-isable. I had the pancake tacos and my friend had the smashed avo big portions, beautifully plated and really tasty. Yes it's expensive, but it's in line with Fitzroy prices. Can't wait to go back and try more!
