Green Man's Arms

Skip the set menu—go straight for the à la carte brilliance at this Lygon Street staple. Melbourne’s plant-forward dining crowd practically lives at Green Man's Arms. Cozy. Dimly lit. Buzzing with flawless Victorian pub energy. Ditching heavily processed alternatives for true cuisine végétale, the scratch kitchen champions whole plants. Think breathtaking house-made focaccia, a world-class mushroom 'steak' that defies logic, and an eggplant schnitty commanding serious respect. Herbivores and skeptical omnivores alike champion the hearty, allium-free-friendly plates and rich nut roasts. Chilly Melbourne evening? A mug of warmed spiced apple cider is non-negotiable. Finish with a generous slab of their legendary plant-based Basque cheesecake. Charming staff, killer happy hour drops, and vibrant aesthetics—grab a pint and settle in.
