    Lovely hidden café! They make their own homemade almond milk, which gave our Chai a fabulous creamy texture. Give it a try !
    Cakes were delicious, and all the food around us looked great as well. 100% recommend this sweet place and their friendly staff (not as grumpy as their mugs might suggest ;))

    Might take a bit to find but it’s well worth it. Monk Bodhi Dharma is hidden in a car park adjacent to Woolies, you’ll find it by following your nose as the delicous smell of their coffee roaster draws you in to coffee heaven. Lovely people serve what could me Melbournes best long black, food looks great and their beans are fantastic. Perfect.

    Up-cycled vibe and very relaxing and cozy atmosphere. Food is vegan presented very well and tasting really good.

    The place is tiny through. So not enough room to swing a cat. We had a pretty average service and mainly was interested in the pour overs. After choosing from the menu we found out that there was more variety on another board on the other side of the cafe. So I missed out on trying and spending good money, some Panama pour over.
    We also had a server who was a little too relaxed and shrugged off our questions on coffee varieties.
    Aside from the service and missing coffee menu overall was cozy and worth a visit for the food and coffee.

    Been here a few times esp when I am visiting Melbourne. Thank God for them because it is so hard to find Veg resto that cooks without Allium (Onion, Garlic, Leeks etc) and everything here is Alium free.

    Wild Mushroom is a must try. Also try the lunch special every time. Coffee is beyond perfect! The photos don’t do them justice.

    I'm a chai enthusiast and addict and the healing house brewed chai from here is hands down the best one I've had in Melbourne so far. Very strong flavour, with a good hit of spice and not too sweet. The food was also great, with a generous serving. Will be back for sure.

    Very different!

    I found Monk Bodhi Dharma very intriguing place to dine. It is is set at a small rear house and the interiors are more or less natural. The staff are extremely friendly.

    The average meal price is $15 and averge drink price is $7. I enjoyed the place because it is very different and unique. They run from a small kitchen which is visible to the general public.

    Note: This is not a fine dine place, this is a small cafe which is very popular among locals and tourists. You might feel a bit out of place if you are wearing business formals. Recommended clothing is casual given the tourist crowd.

    Superb vegan pancake! Great breakfast variety! Would love to come back again. The only thing is the cafe is a little too small to fit all the hungry vegans or vegetarians.
