In Adelaide from Melbourne and met a friend here for lunch yesterday. Having owned my own Vegan Cafe I get stupidly excited when I find great Vegan and cruelty free eateries and this did not disappoint! The Moussaka is TO DIE FOR!! Cannot wait to get back! xx

Got it — here’s a more formal, vegan-focused version you could use for Google Reviews or similar: --- ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Joy Flora is an outstanding vegan café that truly sets the standard for plant-based dining. Mark and his team deliver excellence in every detail — from the warm, professional service to the beautifully prepared food that never fails to impress. Even though it is a 45-minute drive for me, I happily make the trip as often as possible because the quality and experience are unmatched. This café demonstrates how creative, delicious, and satisfying vegan food can be. Joy Flora is not only a place to eat but a place that inspires and promotes a healthier, more sustainable lifestyle. I cannot recommend it highly enough .

We visited for the first time today and had an awesome lunch! We ordered some burgers and the big breakfast, everything was so colourful and flavour filled. We even had the pleasure of meeting the Owner and chef Mark who came out to introduce himself which was lovely, and he even gave my wife a special dessert treat for her birthday which was really nice! Highlight was the massive macadamia cookie we ordered as well which was heaven! Would highly recommend for anyone interested in an amazing vegan meal!

What an amazing place for vegans and non vegans, equally! Pastries are delightful, fresh, tasty, great quality. Can’t choose a favourite one but the strawberry crumble croissant is definitely a must. Coffee was amazing and the cups are huge! I loved the local art items available for sale, little clay figures, paintings, tote bags, jewellery, etc. Books available to have a read while enjoying food or drinks. Great service, genuinely friendly stuff and delicious food. The scrambled tofu was lovely Definitely a must in Adelaide!

A Vegan’s Paradise in a Quaint Corner! If you’re looking for a cozy spot that serves up mouthwatering vegan delights, look no further than Joy of Flora Café. Nestled in a charming, quiet area, this café is a hidden gem perfect for enjoying a break, whether you're working or simply unwinding. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with the lovely owner and friendly staff creating a place where you’ll feel right at home. And let's talk about the food—oh, the food! As a vegan, I can confidently say this is my go-to place for a coffe and a delicious and satisfying meal. The menu is a true haven for plant-based eaters, with standouts like the BLT or BLAT (bacon, lettuce, avocado, and tomato). The flavors are so rich and satisfying that even non-vegans will love it. But the treats! The sweets at Joy of Flora are simply to die for. Whether you're in the mood for a light bite or something sweet to finish your meal, they’ve got you covered.

What a fantastic place this is! We were visiting from Perth & we were recommended to eat here. The café & garden is so beautiful, the staff (especially the owner Mike) were so friendly & helpful. And the food! WOW! Absolutely delicious! If we lived in Adelaide we would go here all the time! Please support this beautiful business.
