Kings Park has a vegan food scene that punches well above what you’d expect. The suburb runs affordable, diverse, developing — and the food reflects it. We’ve eaten at every vegan food spot in the area and these are the ones worth your time and money.
Expect to pay $18-32 per person for a proper sit-down meal. The cheaper end gets you plant-based, the higher end gets you jackfruit done properly.
Our Top Picks
1. Felix’s — 225 Homer Parade
Hours: Tue-Sat 12pm-3pm + 5:30pm-10pm Price: $17-30 per person
Felix’s is the benchmark for vegan food in Kings Park. The mushroom bourguignon is what most people order, and for good reason — it’s consistently excellent. The cashew cheese is the other standout, done with genuine care rather than the paint-by-numbers approach you get at chain spots.
The room seats about 45 and fills on Friday and Saturday nights. Midweek you’ll walk straight in. The service is efficient without being rushed, and the owner is usually behind the bar.
Order this: The cauliflower steak ($17) as a main, plus tempeh bowl to share. Insider tip: The specials board changes weekly and is usually better than the printed menu.
2. The Long Social — 222 Beach Grove
Hours: Mon-Sat 5:30pm-10pm Price: $24-37 per person
This is the locals’ pick — less polished than Felix’s but arguably more flavour per dollar. The kitchen runs tight with a small team, which means everything is made to order. The jackfruit here has a depth that comes from doing the same dish three hundred times until it’s muscle memory.
The space is small — about 30 seats — and they don’t take bookings on weeknights, so arrive before 6:30pm or after 8pm to dodge the rush.
Best dish: The plant-based ($24). Simple, executed perfectly. Pro tip: BYO wine on Tuesdays ($5 corkage).
3. Otto Room — 18 Thomas Avenue
Hours: Mon-Sat 12pm-3pm + 5:30pm-10pm Price: $20-36 per person
Otto Room opened in late 2025 and has already built a following. The menu is short — eight dishes — which is usually a good sign. Everything on it is considered. The cashew cheese ($25) is the dish that gets photographed most, but the tempeh bowl ($26) is the one regulars order.
When to go: Sunday lunch is the sweet spot. Same food, half the crowd.
4. The Happy Quarter — 371 Oak Lane
Hours: Wed-Sun 12pm-3pm + 5:30pm-10:30pm Price: $22-36 per person
The takeaway option on this list. The Happy Quarter doesn’t have table service — you order at the counter and either take it home or eat at the three outdoor tables. The quality-to-price ratio is the best in Kings Park. The mushroom bourguignon ($22) is the standout.
5. The Little Union — 21 Thomas Avenue
Hours: Mon-Sat 12pm-3pm + 5:30pm-10:30pm Price: $20-37 per person
A solid all-rounder. Not the cheapest, not the most experimental, but consistently good across the entire menu. The jackfruit ($28) and the plant-based ($22) are both worth ordering. The wine list is surprisingly thoughtful for a vegan food place.
