Australia’s first vegan pub offers cheeky twist on high tea
Bhavani Baumann first made headlines in May when she transformed The Chippendale Hotel in Sydney, affectionately known as The Chippo into Australia’s first all-vegan pub.
She is turning heads again, launching a limited vegan low tea menu, offering a playful twist on the classic high tea.
The menu will feature vegan bite-sized classics including mini pies, sausage rolls, Aussie burgers and lamington pavlovas.

For Baumann, who also owns Mama B’s, the bistro next door, finding new, exciting ways to bring communities together and celebrate great vegan food is important.
“The low tea menu is a playful twist on traditional high teas, offering a fun, relaxed, indulgent alternative ... and has been crafted with only the most iconic Aussie and pub food in mind,” she told 7NEWS.com.au.
The limited edition menu is available for $65 on Saturdays and Sundays for the month of June.
For the extra thirsty customers, you can also choose a boozy option for $95 featuring cocktail teapots and bottomless mimosas.
Cocktails include the Hard Peach Iced Tea and Hot Chai Toddy.
These can also be substituted for mocktails.
It is essential to book as the delicious experience only offers two sessions – 1.30pm and 5.30pm.
