Customer's reviews

Brother Bon is my families favourite vegan restaurant in Melbourne (or anywhere maybe). Every single thing I’ve tried is 10/10. There is so much time, effort and care put into their dishes. Not only the food but the service and staff attention to detail is second to none and doesn’t go unnoticed. I went to Brother Bon tonight with my two vegan sisters, vegetarian brother and Dad and my Mum who eats meat but loves eating vego and vegan. It was one of the best meals and experiences as usual. On top of this, the staff sung me happy birthday with a beautifully presented ice cream and churros with a candle and ‘happy birthday Maisie’ written in chocolate. I adore this business so much and hope they know how people appreciate what they do and create. ~ Maisie G
Can never recommend enough! Their fake meat is absolutely unbelievable! Have to try! Chilly and basil fried rice is sooo good! Their ‘fried chicken’! Omg! I think a meat lover would love it too! You can’t tell it’s actually plant based! We went there for lunch, then came back there to have dinner. A couple of weeks later, we went there for dinner and went back in the next day for lunch again! They are the best vegan restaurant in Melbourne I think!! Have to try!! I have been going to them so often for a very long period of time. They have a very high consistency of their dishes, always meet and exceed expectations. And they have new dishes coming out every month! You can feel they are making the meals out of heart not purely for business purpose. ~ Chenxi Z
Probably the best Vegan/Veg option in Melbourne. Vietnamese focus. The food it mostly good - it has gotten a lot better lately. It's reasonably affordable and it comes out really quick. They are doing something right. Pretty heavy on the faux meats - it makes up most of the menu. But that is good because they kind of replicate some really nice dishes. They have a range of 6 or so Banh Mi interpretations for lunch as well as Vegan pies and sausage rolls. The dining area is enormous and feels a little bit like a hospital cafeteria - but replace the dying people with ex hippies that now have a job and can finally afford to eat out. Loving hut is part of a chain that has some association with a crazy cult lady guru - so that's always fun. ~ max

Questions & Answers

Hi do they allow BYO booze?
No, they are licenced to serve alcohol though.
is everything halal?
I know it’s vegan but just curious if they use non halal ingredients such as alcohol in their cooking?
Is this open????????????????
They changed names to 'Brother Bon' recently and renovated however it's still owned by the same owners. It was meant to re open on the 18th of this month if my memory serves me correctly. Best to check their Facebook for updates. 😊

Yes, but wine only
Do u open today. Please confirm we want to book a table for 6 people. Thank
