We’re Here to Help You Get It Right

These menus are just the beginning. Plant based catering isn’t about compromise. It’s about doing better. We’ve put together menus that prove vegan and vegetarian food can be just as delicious, sophisticated, and memorable as any traditional offering. Whether you’re planning a fully vegan event or need mixed options for guests with different preferences, let’s create the perfect menu for your celebration.

100% Plant Based or Mixed

Whether your event is completely vegan and vegetarian or you need to cater for mixed dietary preferences, we design menus that work beautifully for everyone

Allergen Awareness

We take allergies very seriously. Every menu is customised around your guests’ needs. We take every precaution to avoid cross contamination but are always transparent about limitations

Vendor Coordination

We work seamlessly with your florist, decorator, musicians, and other vendors to coordinate timing so everything happens beautifully

Vegan Catering: Common Questions

How much does vegan and vegetarian catering cost in Melbourne?

Vegan and vegetarian catering pricing depends on your menu selection (canapés, seated meals, or buffet), guest count, and service requirements. We cater for events from 20 to 500+ guests. Contact us at (03) 8503 7394 or [email protected] for a detailed quote.

Do you offer fully vegan menus or mixed options?

Both. We create 100% vegan and vegetarian events, or we can design mixed menus that cater beautifully for guests with different dietary preferences. All plant-based options are clearly marked and prepared with the same care as our traditional offerings.

Can you accommodate other dietary requirements alongside vegan options?

Absolutely. We customise menus for gluten free, nut free, soy free, and all allergy requirements. We take every precaution to avoid cross-contamination, though we’re always transparent about limitations in our commercial kitchen.

What areas of Melbourne do you deliver vegan catering to?

We deliver vegan and vegetarian catering across Melbourne CBD, South Yarra, Toorak, Brighton, Hawthorn, Collingwood, Fitzroy, St Kilda, Bayside suburbs, and within 35km of our Mentone warehouse. We also service regional Victoria including Mornington Peninsula and Yarra Valley.

How far in advance should I book vegan catering?

We recommend booking 2 to 3 weeks in advance to secure your preferred date and allow time for menu customisation. For last-minute requests, call us on (03) 8503 7394 and we’ll do everything we can to help.

What’s the minimum order for vegan catering?

Small office lunch, team meeting, seminar catering, or massive corporate event, we cater for groups of any size. Just tell us your numbers and we’ll sort you out.

Is vegan catering more expensive than traditional catering?

Not at all. Our vegan and vegetarian menus are priced competitively with our traditional offerings. You’re paying for premium ingredients, skilled preparation, and exceptional service, regardless of whether it’s plant-based or not.
