Good vegetarian good, where you pay what you think your meal was worth, so you can never complain about the value-for-money. Can be patchy, but the people running it are genuine and happy to rectify complaints (of which I've seldom had any)

With the philosiphy of "pay what you think it's worth" and BYO - this can end up as a fairly economical night out. Be warned that this is vegetarian - but trust me - you will not go hungry!! we had two courses and paid $15 each - the service was great too.

In the beautiful and lovely grounds in Abbottsford Convent. Next door is Collingwood's Children's Farm. Eat and drink by donation. There's also other cafes next door if this is not for you. All vegetarian meals, chai tea, latte etc - walk around the grounds. Once we cycled along the yarra path and stopped here for coffee, carried on to Dights... More

I have to admit I am a big fan of lentil as anything. The food is vegetarian & it is cooked from scratch when you order it. The. Place is small & the kitchen is in the middle of the restaurant & you can watch the chef cook your meal. The food is very flavoursome & the place is always... More

My daughters took me to Lentil as Anything on my visit to Melbourne. They described it as a place where you pay what you feel it is worth, completely vegetarian ~ located in the convent in Abbotsford. My first impression was that of a soup kitchen with the bain maries of steaming hot rices, curries and standing in line. But... More

I'm sad to say that this used to be one of our fave spots to visit however over the last few years the quality has dropped with many of the menu options constantly off the list. And I'm really sorry to say the service leaves a lot to be desired lately too. I don't say this lightly as I love... More

Lentil As Anthing is situated in the Collingwood Convent and is very basic but yummy food were you pay what you think it is worth! Worth a try!
