Went with a big group so managed to try out different things.
The massaman chicken curry was HUGE and tasty. The KFC burger was good too but my favourite was the Korean Bao Sliders. The "meat" tasted so tender and paired really well with the sauce and buns. No one in our group liked the Classic American Cheeseburger.
My personal order of preference:
1. Korean Bao Sliders
2. Masamman Chicken Curry
3. KFC Burger
4. Classic American Cheeseburger
Went here with a vegan friend (I eat vegetarian) and we were going giddy at all the tasty options on the menu we knew we could eat - totally spoiled for choice. Great waitress helped with dish recommendations as we couldn't decide between all the tasty goodies.
And the cocktail of the week was good too!

Tyranny of Distance was undoubtedly the best vegan restaurant we’ve visited to date. Sporting a a fully vegan menu that seemingly offers no-compromise, we were in for an incredibly tasty experience, closely mimicking their original meat counterparts, which in fact it’s become more and more difficult to distinguish.
Seriously, why butcher animals when the plant based options taste just as good?!
We came to Tyranny of Distance the other day and was shocked that the entire venue was vegan! The space was really cool , one side being a bar and the other a sit down restaurant.
We ordered the eggplant parmigiana, the massman “chicken” curry and the peking “duck” roti rolls.
The peking “duck” was really flavoursome and for the roti to be plant based it was surprising how flakey the pastry was. We loved the hoisin flavour in this dish
The egg plant parmigiana was deliciously crumbed and had a really realistic “ bacon” and “mozzarella” on top, this really plays with your senses as it looks like the real thing .
My favourite dish was by far the curry, there was so much spice and flavour packed into this dish – would come back for this one for sure. The mock meat was not my favourite so next time I will get it without the fake chicken
For dessert we had the raw cheesecake, I was so full but my friend LOVED it !
Thanks for having us !
Friendly staff and a good atmosphere to hang out with friends. The cocktails were so good and the food was delicious. My non vegan friends loved the food too. Would definitely recommend.

Set up in what was once an old petrol station, Tyrrany of Distance is a quirky cocktail bar with a 100% plant based meal and tapas style menu.
The fit out is uber chilled, upcycled furniture, graffiti walls and a heated, covered courtyard area at the back. We we invited down try their new menu which includes Truffle infused mushroom arancini; Duck Roti rolls - which were lovely but needed a dipping sauce; beautiful sweet potato and snake bean tortellini in a coriander foam; Massaman chicken curry; a classic American cheeseburger; and Duck cooked in master stock with ribbons of pickled carrot and cucumber.
The focus is on fresh local ingredients and the dishes are all well executed. I swear that the Duck looked and tasted just like duck! If I hadnt known, I really wouldnt have been able to tell this menu was 100% vegan :)
If you dont come for the menu, come for the drinks - $4 happy hour every day from 4-7pm!
Thanks for having us team!
Cannot recommend this place enough 🙌🏻 This Eatery and Bar has given vegan food a big THUMBS UP 😍😍😍 We thoroughly enjoyed our culinary experience and are looking forward to coming back 🙈 Thanks for having us 💕 Some of our highlights included the Korean Bao, Roti Rolls and the Massaman Chicken Curry
This is a vegan restaurant, but it has some great dishes! The arancini balls I really enjoyed, along with the curry which I felt was similar to a spicy butter chicken! They should serve it with roti though! They had these roti duck wraps, they were nice but I felt they needed a dipping sauce because it was a little dry. The baos were a favourite, really enjoy these. Juicy and full of flavour and three large servings.
Such delicious vegan food! We had the tacos which had great flavour. We also had Korean pork belly bao which was so good and the bao was so soft 😍 will be back!
V E G A N deliciousness. A bit of a divey feel but the food is anything but! We had arancini, "duck" roti and nachos. All superb, service outstanding and we will be back very soon!
Edit: just read another review about glasses being cleared too soon with drinks left - this happened to us too, so worth taking note of (the only thing though!!)
Gret food and drink specials, love the duck roti. Staff are very casual, which I like, it feels relaxed
such a nice spot for a drink and dinner! it is always busy so i would recommend coming early if you're wanting to sit down and eat. the happy hour specials are so good and the food is pretty cheap. it is all vegan too and accommodates for people who are gluten and onion free. the location is also really good as you can go to another place afterwards as this place is only open until 1!! highly recommend coming here, its worth the trip. we got the nachos and aranchini balls and they were so good. service is pretty good but earlier in the night we felt we were a bit neglected in the restaurant as it took a while to get menus etc.
Phenomenal!
Generous portions of food, the staff are incredibly friendly and easy to have a laugh with, and an extensive drinks menu 🙌
Love the "destroy" ambiance and the vegan food is delish! You wouldn't expect this quality in a bar, but it's literally a hidden gem
