Review Faceplant Cafe - Geelong

Delicious food and great coffee. Great options with a plant based all day breakfast and lunch menu with really amusing names. Located in a newly renovated Fire Station, it has stylish decor and beautiful hanging plants. Reasonably priced. Looking forward to going back.

FacePlant is superb and excels at every level. The food is fantastic, the staff attentive, and the dining area, bar, outdoor sitting have been set up beautifully and with attention to detail. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!

This café offers an exquisite dining experience. There is an undeniable opulence about the place that is evident as soon as you walk in. When a place even makes the bathroom / toilet feel high end, you know you're in for an enjoyable time. Which is exactly what you get. The staff are friendly, smartly dressed and attentive. Orders are brought to your table in a timely fashion and it was a shame to tuck into my dish since it looked like a piece of art. The kitchen staff certainly understand that we eat with our eyes just as much as we do our mouths. The food doesn't disappoint either, my meal was a good size and full of balanced flavours. My coffee ☕ was also pleasant and had a smooth and creamy flavour. The cup it came in was funky too. Faceplant is a delightful vegan friendly café that deserves your time even if you're not vegan since its food is an absolute pleasure to tuck into.

Had an excellent experience at Faceplant, the service was friendly and the food was great. Loved the “bread knives” they had there to cut through the sour dough and the vegan feta was delish. Well recommended, we’ll definitely be heading back here.

Very accommodating to my weird family who insisted on taking a photo outside the cafe across the busy street. The owner (I think) noticed and came outside and took our photo - probably saved my uncle's life. 5 stars for delicious food, coffees, gorgeous decor, very friendly customer service and effective traffic control. I will definitely be back (I'll skip the photo next time if I can manage it).

Moreish yummy food and its Vegan. Who knew? Friendly staff and easy parking.

FacePlant is a veritable hidden gem. The food is incredibly fresh and flavoursome. The staff are so friendly, courteous and welcoming, and the prices are totally affordable. My son and I travelled 2 hours (round trip) to visit, and would return in a heartbeat. A perfect dining experience in every way.

Had the most delicious lunch today. The low carb bowl was simply delicious. The young guy who served us (I think he said it was only day 2 for him today), was attentive and sweet. The hero for us was the delicious deserts we purchased for our long drive home. We didn’t make it out of Geelong before eating them all 🤤 For vegan food this place is a winner! My husband is Omni and loved it too. 😊

Beautiful food and attentive service. I had the hemp seed falafel and a green cold pressed juice. Lovely atmosphere. They have utilised the space perfectly for such a small shop. I will be going back again soon.

I have recently moved to Geelong and was becoming worried that there was not a vegan area when I found Pakinton Street and this beautiful little place. The meal was utterly divine and so unique, interesting and very yummy. ( I had the avocado dish) The service was just lovely and the price was excellent considering the giant size serve I and my daughter received. Just lovely and I will be back and cannot wait to share with my family and friends that will be visiting soon. Thank you for great service.

Best vegan meal I’ve ever eaten. The pumpkin gnocchi is worth a drive from Melbourne. Seriously. And I’m no pumpkin fan...well, until now.

Amazing delicious food! Will be back to try the rest of the menu. Fresh healthy plant based food. Beautiful cafe with a cabinet of lovely things to eat and sweets to have with coffee. A place Geelong has desperately needed. Definitely go check it out!

Wow what an amazing little cafe. I didn’t realise it was 100% plant based until I ordered my partners coffee (he drinks cows milk) which they obviously didn’t have, instead offered a range of over 6 different plant mylks to try. We both had the ‘not’ avo smash and it was ridiculously good! You got a half avo with a creamy type cheese inside it, rocket, tomatoes, dukkah on sourdough toast and they even threw on some edible flower petals. We will defiantly be back!

Recently had a totally fabulous lunch (Rainbow dish + haloumi) here with my Mum who couldn't quite believe it was all vegan. See you again soon. PS. Shame about the several groups of people coming in and leaving when they looked at the menu and couldn't see any meat...their loss I say!

A feast for the eyes and taste buds! Fresh, colorful & flavoursome. Swift, slick service. Highly recommend it to anyone vegan or not. My fussy vegetarian friend loved it too!

Loved this place, the staff were very friendly, the coffee was delicious and the food was very hearty and healthy, I will definitely be back for the avocado breakfast!

Super impressed with this new cafe. Face Plant's plant based food, atmosphere and service is truly 'Melbourne standard'. Also, and most importantly, it has an outdoor pup friendly area. This place will soon be the most talked about cafe in Geelong.

Excellent vegan food and service!!! Big breakfast and smoothie was amazing and I'm not even vegan ;)

I visited for the first time today with my husband & kids (4 & almost 2). Hubby & I shared a pea baguette/roll & a mushroom wrap, the kids shared a cheese toastie. Then we shared a chocolate cake & caramel slice. Everything was so delicious! We'll definitely be back! The place was packed, but staff were very friendly & accomodating. It's great to see so many people eating plant based �

Such delicious food and super friendly service, everything about this place is incredible including the atmosphere and decor- absolutely love it!!

Dad said it was the “best breakfast I’ve had in a long time!” And he’s normally wary of vegan food 🤗 the avo with “feta” and dukkah had SO much flavour and the strawberry bruschetta was yummy too! Good service and cute layout, would definitely go back 😊

Food I had was amazing, def best vegan breakfast I’ve ever had out!! Can’t wait to go back and try different meals. There feta was AMAZING!! I had vegan coffee as well which was perfect. Staff were friendly, variety of foods, ambience was good and had a really good vibe !!! Thanks again see you soon def recommend !!

Amazing. Great food and my Mylk latte was wonderful. Hard to choose from the menu, it all sounds so good. Will be back �

Great coffee, excellent service and incredible food. Definitely something that Geelong needed. A very special find!
