Las Vegan Bakery

A Colling­wood in­sti­tu­tion, Las Ve­g­an Bak­ery is si­t­u­at­ed on Smith Street (up the Gertrude Street end), nes­tled in a quirky shop­ping strip that hosts a range of eclec­tic te­nants in­clud­ing a gallery, tat­too par­lour, art store and bou­tique pub. Las Ve­g­an is a quirky café with a re­laxed vibe that boasts funky fur­ni­ture, great mu­sic and of course de­li­cious food.

Renowned for their rice balls, which come served with de­ca­dent sa­tay sauce, bean shoots and a tas­ty sal­ad mix Las Ve­g­an cuts no corn­ers. Most im­pres­sive is the use of fresh herbs, which make the din­ing ex­pe­ri­ence es­pe­cial­ly me­m­orable. Tru­ly, Las Ve­g­an is an ex­ten­sion of my own kitchen, I am known for go­ing at least twice a week, most re­cent­ly with my in-laws, who thor­ough­ly en­joyed the ex­pe­ri­ence.

The menu caters for a range of tastes, from health­ful soup, chil­li ‘non’ carne, cal­zones (lunch on­ly), slop­py joes and len­til burg­ers to the faux chick­en burg­er or nuggets, deep fried tem­peh and to­fu and the faux chick­en burg­er, all of which can be en­joyed whilst sip­ping on a Hen­ry of Har­court cider.

Savoury de­lights are not where it ends ei­ther, Michael bakes the most in­cred­i­ble muffins, brownies and cakes. So, if you have room at the end of your meal, which is high­ly un­like­ly with their gener­ous serv­ings, you may be able to fit one in with your bot­tom­less chai.

Open from 11am Tues­day through Fri­day, and un­til 9pm on Thurs­day and Fri­day nights (with Wed­nes­day on the cards too), Las Ve­g­an is a great place to get a bite to eat with friends,

Las Ve­g­an Bak­ery is lo­cat­ed at 22 Smith Street, Colling­wood, Vic­to­ria and can be reached for book­ings on (03) 9415 9001
