I got super excited when I was in there this evening so I ordered all the food. It was all delicious. The cauliflower beetroot balls were a must and did not disappoint. The doughnut... even tough it sounded interesting with the bean center it was so yummy! I'm saving the tofu apple crumble for tomorrow as I'm very full of yummy food!
I can't go to Richmond without going to the Tofu shop. I have been going for nearly 30 years now. It has always been part of my training regime. Wonderful authentic food made with love. Can't recommend it more highly!
The most fresh, delicious and convenient food in all of Melbourne, you are bound to leave full from a plate mixed of warm items. The buffet style has you choosing each elements you enjoy. While it is a great value for money ($15 for a small plate, I promise you will be full) it is an absolute go to!!
A quick dinner in a warm and friendly environment. Two of us shared a medium-sized bowl with a selection of food available at the time. The offering included rice, tofu, beetroot, broccoli and potatoes and lots more. We added two tofu slices which topped the meal off nicely. The price was more than reasonable.
Delicious vegetarian menu that changes weekly. The concept involves picking your size and then selecting a combo of the range of dishes available that week. I went for the medium bowl ( small is way to small for a meal) and tried the tofu coconut curry, the chickpeas curry, the broccoli with tempers, the Brussel sprouts, the zucchini and peppers, the rapi salad and the tofu hummus. I loved this meal! So tasty. Will definitely be back to try the next menu. Just be aware, if you’re planning on eating in there is very minimal seating.
There’s a reason this place has been able to survive for so long. A great choice of health focused foods and staff that are interested in making it a easy experience.
For a tofu fan... this place is a gift from heaven, but with quite a price tag (especially when you basically want everything in the shop, even its cookbook!)
This place is great! It’s just vegetables and salads done properly, it’s so flavourful. There tofu is delicious and if you want to buy some, you can! My favourite was the chickpea stew. So tasty.
I like how humble this restaurant is on the busy street of Richmond. With the warm staff, fresh and nutritiously good food, this place reminds me of my parents’ place — home. I had broccoli, fried pumpkin with mung beans, coconut cauliflower, and peanut satay tofu. Also added tofu dip and chilli on top. Yes, they all fit in the small bowl! If you’re visiting with a partner, get the medium or large one for sharing and you can have every type of dishes available on one plate.
This place is killer and no matter how monstrous your plate looks at the end of the buffet line it will all make sense when you eat . The best vego cafe in Melbourne for sure ! Prosper Tofu Shop ! Internationally !
Making their own tofu in house you can see why this is only one of the reasons why this place is one of Melbourne’s best vego cafes! This dish served was banged packed with flavour. Incredible 👌
LOVED THIS PLACE! So many to choose from, I ended up ordering everything. It’s good that you can have so many different flavours. They were all mixed up in my bowl in the end but it was super enjoyable. I found that a lot of vegan places are overrated but each dish I had has its own flawed and matched with every other dish so nicely (they were complimenting each other). Definitely will go back.
Was walking by and saw this shop. Spoke to the owner (?) He was so lovely and welcoming!! They have an amazing variety of items made from impressive ingredients (a lot of organic, biodynamic, etc). Will definitely be back!!
Delicious, always changing vegetarian menu, plus tofu. Great variety, you always get half a dozen different flavours, hot and salads. Isn't cheap, but it is very good value
I am very lucky to have this great establishment next to us which serves so many variety of flavours and textures in one go. They operates very sustainably and everything feels homemade and fresh. Staff, very kind, friendly and lovely. A not to be missed Melbourne establishment which supply great honest food!

I finally made it there any I tried a bit of everything, it was all amazing. The tofu is absolutely delicious.
Everyone is super friendly too 🙏 😊
No longer a Melbournite, it was such a lovely surprise to see this iconic vegetarian restaurant still open, especially after Covid. The vibe is still the same, the food is soooooo good. There’s nothing like it anywhere. Such yummy, unique flavours.
Food is great but $17 for a small takeaway box (see the sec pic to see how small is the box) is on the pricy side. Still hungry after this small lunch.
