This vegan cafe impressed me with its well-presented and delicious plant-based offerings. The bagels and sandwiches were particularly noteworthy, demonstrating that vegan food can be just as satisfying and flavorful as their meaty counterparts. One of the standout features here is the ability to enjoy a fully plant-based meal without noticing a significant difference from your favourite meaty dishes. This speaks volumes about the quality and creativity of the menu. If you're curious about vegan cuisine or simply looking for tasty and satisfying options, this cafe is worth a visit. It challenges preconceived notions about vegan food and offers a delightful experience for all types of eaters.
I'm not a vegan, but you don't have to be one to enjoy the food here. After briefly talking to the friendly staff member about what was available, I ordered a small flat-white with oat-milk, a vegan salmon bagel, and a piece of Biscoff cheesecake. The coffee was very nice, the oat-milk paired well with it. The vegan salmon bagel was delicious, after my meal I asked what the ersatz salmon actually was, to be told that it was marinated tomato. The Biscoff cheesecake was quite enjoyable, a perfect ending to my meal. If you haven't tried eating at a vegan restaurant, Shift Eatery would be an ideal introduction. Recommended.
I ordered the vegan Reuben toasty based on the comments in the reviews, and it didn't disappoint. The flavor was spectacular! I did take away so I had limited interaction with the staff, but the service was great as well. The entire menu looked amazing, and they have some other pre-packaged items for sale. The desserts looked delicious, but sadly I didn't partake. This restaurant is worth visiting!
Well, finally tried their bacon and egg bagel (always sold out by the time I get there) and I can 100% confirm it’s the best one I’ve tried in 5 years of being vegan. Wonderful place and legendary staff. I’ll be here every time I’m in Sydney. Thanks Shift! PS. No photo because I ate it before I could get the camera out!

Great place for vegans and also plenty of gluten free options too! I enjoyed the big breakfast, it was so tasty and the chai was just wholesome! I also had the biscoff cake which was amazing! The service was good too and food came out pretty quick. Will come here again when i visit Sydney!
Really enjoyed the food here! Had the tofu toasted sandwich and the dirty chai. Looking forward to trying other things on the menu (especially the carrot/Biscoff cake and the muffins)! Only thing was the music was quite loud but otherwise lovely.
Peaceful place. Friendly staff and great food. The portions are big. Had my first meal in Sydney here and really liked it. Not many tables but it was not very crowded when I went (Friday afternoon) so there was enough space for everyone.
You can grab a free table or go on a waitlist to be seated. There was no indoors seats so we sat outside. Ordered straight to the table, food and drinks came out fast. Everything was delicious. It was hard to pick what to get!

Please go and treat yourself this place is stunning. This was an exceptional meatball sub. Periodt. Vegan or not it was just wonderful in terms of texture and flavour and very reasonably priced too. Do it.
Hands down the best vegan bagel I’ve ever had in my entire life and so well priced. Definitely put this one on the list for your trip or if you’re a local. :
