    What an amazing gem of a vegan Cafe in the heart of Moonee Ponds! The staff are so friendly, so helpful & keen to chat and the food. As a non-vegan (sorry! Don't judge!) I'm amazed at their (Com Tam) broken rice & vegan pork. So much so, I came back after my first dine in visit! Exceptional quality, excellent flavours & well priced. Their soy chai hits the spot too!

    The Com Tam is very nice. Flavourful. But I would recommend the Vietnamese Coffee more. I like the blend of strong coffee and the coconut milk flavour. Sugarless Sweet Coffee.

    Fantastic vegetarian pho that bursts with flavours. Our Com Tam was great too! A small gem of a place in Moonee Ponds - highly recommended if you crave a Vietnamese vegan meal.

    Fell in love with this restaurant, their service and taste! They don't compromise quality by cutting corners - have learned all the love that goes into their slow cooked broths! Very nourishing, full of fresh veggies, no cheating with excessive oil, sugar or salt. Coffee and muffins are delicious. Happy to support a fully vegan family owned business. Pros: Home made taste - great service, Nourishing - Low on oil, salt & sugar, Variety - Absolutely delicious! Cons: Not open Sundays and Mondays, Need more restaurants like this

    I came here when this shop first opened up and got my regular coffees here before work. I should really come here more often. Makes me so happy to see the progress and good reviews 🥰 The best soy latte

    Nothing to fault about this place. The staff are lovely, the pricing is fair, and the com tam is one of the best vegan meals in Melbourne. Great flavour, variety and value for money. I can’t wait to go back.

    The food is delicious with great options for vegans. I missed having Vietnamese cuisine when I went vegan and this fills the void! Many other restaurants substitute the meat with tofu, so I appreciate Olivia Spring for going with faux meat instead. Service is very friendly too! Lovely little cafe.

    Great food and very friendly service. Would get 5 stars but the service was a bit all over the shop and also nearly half the menu was unavailable which was disappointing. That said, awesome portions, reasonable price and most importantly, as noted above, delicious food.

    I’d been meaning to come here for ages because of the great reviews, and finally had the chance last weekend. The staff/owners are so kind and lovely, the service was really good, and the food was just perfect for the price. We got the yaki-udon, pho & spring roll set, muffin and coffee. Everything was really good quality and tasted amazing. I love the interior too which seems sort of French Vietnamese inspired. Can’t wait to go back and try more options

    The best! If you are vegan or vegetarian then you must visit this place. I say that they serve best mocha , chai ☕️ and their meals are healthy &;hearty. Excellent service 👌

    Stumbled upon this local family owned cafe/restaurant where I had a delicious soy latte, a vegan almond croissant and a blt sandwich ! They sorted me out for breakfast after waking up at 7am, so grateful !! The owner was so lovely and smiling ! Felt good to support this business! The inside is quite cute and cozy, would come back if in the area Bonus point because the take away coffee cup is so cute !

  • 5/5 Gema R. 5 months ago on Google • 7 reviews
    The best mocha ☕️ I’ve ever had 😊 made my day! My friend’s long black was also beautiful. Very friendly owner and cozy environment. If you just broke up, come here to grab a cuppa and heal the heart 💜

    I have been to Olivia Spring Cafe many times (it's a local favourite) and have never had a disappointment. The staff are lovely and put a lot of love in to the cafe. It's wonderful seeing an all vegan cafe with such fantastic menu items. My go to is the vegan roast pork banh mi, and the broken rice dish (com tam).

  • 5/5 Thi D. 4 months ago on Google • 4 reviews
    Wow. Amazed by the tastiest Vermicelli Noodle Salad. Vietnamese Coffee Cold with condensed milk is so delicious. Definitely coming back to taste the menu. Great atmosphere and friendly staff.

  • 5/5 Liv C. 9 months ago on Google • 3 reviews
    The food was very fresh and delicious, especially the bahn mi and the udon stir fry, the beetroot latte was perfect. The staff were lovely, and the food was ready quite quickly.

  • 4/5 Ross C. 2 years ago on Google
    Cheap(ish) food and very helpful staff make this place stand out. Could do with sturdier tables out the front, the slightest lean could send your lentils flying!

  • 5/5 Suriani L. 4 months ago on Google • 3 reviews
    I haven’t had com tam in over 8 years since I’ve stopped eating red meat and have always been craving it. this hit the damn spot, so fresh, so full of flavour and so yum - can’t wait to be back and try the other items on the menu

  • 5/5 Zennon D. 3 years ago on Google
    Food came quickly and was really tasty and nice, great spot for vegans (and non-vegans too)

  • 5/5 Doris T. 5 years ago on Google
    Pho is delicious. Rice paper rolls are delicious and great value for money. Love the com tam. And we always get a banh mi to go for later. Super friendly staff. Vegan café but there is cow milk for coffee.

  • 5/5 Zac M. 3 years ago on Google
    gorgeous place my friend. the food is delicious and cheap, and the service is lovely. can't recommend enough!

  • 5/5 Darren W. 2 years ago on Google
    A local gem of Moonee Ponds! Amazing staff and absolutely beautiful and supremely healthy vegetarian food with a Vietnamese basis. For a quick take away, try the popular Banh Mi rolls. For a lunch or brunch, there are plenty of great dine in options.

  • 5/5 Frank H. 1 year ago on Google
    Great little family restaurant with nice Vietnamese vegetarian food. Only a few small tablets, which makes the restaurant both busy and cosy. I like the wallpapers that create a French feeling and simultaneously a basic and clean atmosphere. The service is friendly and attentive. Why not 5 Stars for service? My wife didn't declare that she can't eat red peppers. As this was her fault it was absolutely okay not to replace her rice that contained such. But yet, it would have made my wife's experience so much better, if they would have offered so.

  • 5/5 CJ C. 3 years ago on Google
    Best of both worlds! Healthy and tasty! The balance of the umami noodles is great. Loved the tofu and wakame and how all the ingredients go so well together. So glad that I can finally dine in here. Such a pity that it only happened when I am moving out. A true gem!

  • 4/5 JAEHKOEB A. 1 year ago on Google
    having a taste for vietnamese food, alwsys on the lookout for contemporary take on their classic bahn mi... with three selections to choose from in this 100% vegan cafe, i just had to try the "pork" edition which noone seems to emulate: other than here!!! very delish, may venture back for the other flavours too... always nice to promote the #peacefuldiet with dedicated cafes and restaurants serving up purely plant based food items :) eat vegan and save the planet, humans & animals too.........

  • 5/5 RONALD D. 4 years ago on Google
    I was tired of having meat so happened to come over this place. Saw the reviews and Decided to give it a try. Olivia spring cafe did not disappoint, the options of vegan foos is good, cleaver use of ingredients and amazing taste. Even the portion sizes are good. My new favourite...

  • 5/5 Nastaran A. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is so nice and cozy, and the staff are really friendly and positive; I had a very good time there, highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Trent A. 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful place. I've been twice now and the food has been delicious, generous servings, good price and probably among the friendliest and most sincere service I've experienced. Food came out incredibly quickly both times too. My whole life I thought I wasn't a big rice paper roll fan until I tried my partners chicken and prawn ones!

  • 3/5 Murray E. 2 years ago on Google
    My experience ordering a takeaway Bahn mi was only OK. I called ahead with an order for pickup, but it had not been started when I arrived. I asked for no coriander and only a little bit of chili, by there was coriander and the chili was very spicy. The bun was smaller than the average $7.50 Bahn mi, so not good value priced at $10. ($11 on a takeaway app.) But besides all that it was tasty even if my mouth is on fire. I might go back to try sitting down for lunch, but I would not recommend it for getting a takeaway Bahn mi.

  • 5/5 Stanley t. 2 years ago on Google
    The most delicious vegan food I have ever had for real! Also thank you for the lovely drawing I got with my Uber delivery 😊 made us smile.

  • 5/5 Ern Theng C. 2 years ago on Google
    If you’re vegan or want to eat less meat, this is the place to be. I don’t feel like I’m missing meat at all. Great Banh Mi for a good price.
