Very nice pub, good selection of beer and other drinks, great vegan/vegetarian only menu. Also a selection of board games and a pool table for those who need more than a nice drink and conversation.

@thecarringbushhotel is a perfect spot to hangout with your mates over great vegan food, amazing cocktails, while playing pool or pinball.

Yes you heard that right! Pub style vegan food, refreshing cocktails, irresistible desserts, wall of sauces, and so much more @thecarringbushhotel has to offer.

What we had here:

Housemade ‘squid ink’ fettuccine, made of seafood alternatives, this terrific pasta dish was absolutely fresh and delicious. Packed with so much flavours, this one is definitely a must try.

Halloumi and mushroom burger served with slaw and fries, such a juicy and tempting burger it was. The thick patty layers of a whole portobello and a fried halloumi with fresh spinach, mint aioli and tomato chutney was simply mouthwatering and very addictive in taste, strongly recommended.

Arancini balls were absolutely flavourful and so yummy, made of bacon alternative, peas, black pepper, garlic chive aioli. Crispy from the outside and perfectly juicy from the inside. Must try.

NY style baked cheesecake, (V, GF, NFO), the cheesecake was simply sensational, and so delectable, made with seasonal love of rhubarb and pear, this one is a perfect dessert to enjoy on cold winter afternoons. It has lemon curd, pear and rhubarb compote, whipped cream and an almond praline. The best thing about the dessert was that it wasn’t too sweet but was enough to enjoy the flavours of it.

Besides we also had an array of cocktails and mocktails which were all very refreshing to drink even on cold winter days. Must try for sure.

Also the service is very friendly and prompt even on busy weekends, led by a team of fabulous, kind and cheerful team of staff. The prices of all the menu items are unbelievably reasonable considering their generous portion sizes and great quality of food.

They also have a fireplace, so why not checkout @thecarringbushhotel this weekend with your friends and family to enjoy a sumptuous and cozy winter special vegan feast.

Great meat-free pub with a huge local beer menu and week daily happy hour. Also a dog friendly courtyard for the hairy four legged friends

What a gem this spot is! Meatless eaters dream, veg and vegan food, cosy decor, open fireplaces?

What a cool, rustic and chill pub with great vibes and friendly staff. Great food except I walked in and asked for a steak for dinner not knowing it was a plant base menu pub, it was hilarious but lucky for me I’m always happy to try new things and it was a fantastic dinner with great drink selections too.

I went here for a wedding and they went above and beyond when it came to catering for my dietary requirements, even seeking me out to ensure I had enough food. I couldn't recommend them highly enough. Super friendly and delicious vegetarian food

Meat-free spread at its best Honestly this guys know what it takes to be a legend in meat-free pub. We loved the food we had in particular their tempeh bowl, plantbased meatballs and the charsiu dumplings.

Apart from yummilicious food, you can enjoy playing pool billiard, board game and exploring their hot sauce station! Yes they're all under one roof

? Housemade gnocchi
? "Meatballs"
? Dumplings
? Mac and cheese bake
? Sticky ginger tempeh
? Warm chocolate tart

Food is bad. Even as a veggie. I had the halloumi and mushroom burger. Probably the most disappointing burger I’ve ever had.

Vegan pub with a good craft beer selection. Had the halloumi and mushroom burger with onion rings as well. The other dish is the squid ink fettuccini. All very tasty. Burger better than pasta in my opinion.

Being a meat eater, I was quite apprehensive about dining here as it is a plant based bistro/pub but I was pleasantly surprised that the food were very yummy and well presented. We were able to have a birthday celebration in a private enclosed courtyard which made it much more comfortable than eating in the main dining area. Service was okay - we were not attended to frequently i.e water jugs were not replenished, dishes were not cleared for a long time, not given milk and sugar when coffee was served, no cutlery provided for the cake etc but I guess they were busy with the weekend crowd.

Great hipster pub & for a 'non meat' menu it has quite a good variety available (excluding desert). Overall food was good (not great). Had some areas that could be improved on but overall experience was not bad. Friendly staff here as well!

What a great pub! Chilled vibe on a Sat night, lots of free tables and got one next to the fire. Cocktails and craft beer selection was great. They had one special beer (vegemite / granola mix) that my mate got that was bloody terrible, I think they should take it off the taps! I want to come back and try the vege/vegan menu.

A fantastic spot. Delicious for and great variety. Their menu is vegetarian/vegan, but they have food that everyone will love. The Chorizo salad was delicious, but I would highly recommend the cauliflower buffalo bites.
The service was fantastic too, very friendly and made you feel at home. I wish I lived closer to this place, I'd come more often.

Simply a great place to hang out, taste some fab-o beers and vegetarian/vegan food (don't knock it until you try it, you'll be pleasantly surprised) and the team there are great people.
It's kinda become my 2nd living room.
