Book NowAbout Veggie Vie city
Tucked into McHenry Street, this 100% plant-based spot delivers vibrant CBD dining without the label-checking anxiety. The counter stays stacked with laminated viennoiserie—from apricot Danishes to flaky pistachio croissants pumped with rich nut cream. Savory plates hit just as hard. Expect crumbed mushroom burgers with crisp schnitzel textures, BBQ jackfruit buns, and loaded chips alongside blistered vegetable pizzas. Diners regularly bring skeptical omnivores who leave surprised by the depth of flavor. Factor in a fully vegan wine list, iced matcha, and refreshing pear sodas, and the room settles into an easy urban retreat.
