The Shady Shack
A vegan paradise shielded from its busy neighbours
At first it might appear difficult to find this hip Echo Beach spot camouflaged by jungle foliage and hay-sprouting white canopies, but the usually crammed outside tables give it away. Its abundance of lovingly prepared vegan and gluten-free dishes – such as its salad bowls – may well be enough to convert anyone to such diets, while the coffee gets a gold star as well. Its always ample offering of free-from cakes will sate the needs of diners with a sweet tooth, too.
