Aptly named after J.R.R. Tolkien’s fictional character, a goddess who is a giver of fruit and queen of the earth, Yavanna is magically turning your beloved comfort food into vegan delights in Paddington.
Yavanna is the newest plant-based bar and eatery in the suburb, an outcome of a collaboration among people with a passion for all things plant-based. With a mission to change the world one bite at a time, the restaurant and bar offers decadent and inclusive food and drinks for everyone who steps in their door.
Yavanna’s timely addition to Brisbane’s food scene is consistent with the growing demand for vegan cuisine across Australia. The country happens to have the third-fastest growing vegan population worldwide.
Their menu includes a vast selection of unconventional vegan food such as chargrilled steak, flame-grilled chicken, buffalo wings, and more. Take note that the mention of animal products is referencing a high-quality plant-based alternative so no animals were harmed in making them.
Yavanna’s bar menu features their spicy margarita spin called The Eye of Sauron plus natural wines as well as beers and ciders from local breweries such as Green Beacon, Newstead Brewing, and Balter.
