This Vegan Cafe Has 8 Types of Dairy-Free Milks: Particle

Healthy, vegan smoothies at Particle Cafe, who have a fully plant-based and gluten-free menu.

Can you imagine a cafe where you can choose not only soy milk and almond milk, but also:

  • fresh brazil nut milk

  • fresh cashew milk

  • fresh coconut milk

  • fresh macadamia milk

  • fresh hazelnut milk

  • Rebel Mylk: a blend of cashew, brown rice, coconut cream & nutritional yeast, which has a similar flavour to dairy milk (great for when you’re new to the plantmilk game and are used to the traditional flavour).

That’s what you’ll find at Particle Cafe in Melbourne, Australia, which has a fully plant-based, vibrant and creative menu. Their house-made vegan milks are amazing, and they pair perfectly with their coffee and smoothies (try a cashew or brazil nut latte for a seriously delicious, creamy coffee, or a hazelnut milk chocolate smoothie).

With their co-owner Zac coming from a coffee-centred and barista background, Particle seriously know what they’re doing in that department. Their non-dairy milks foam perfectly on the espresso machine (no sad, split almond milk here), and the cafe even held a coffee making competition earlier this year with some of Melbourne’s best baristas, to show that you definitely don’t need dairy for an excellent coffee.

And the food is equally delicious. Expect to find dishes that are vibrant, wholesome and full of flavour. I’ve visited twice now and loved everything both times. Their smoothie bowls are super creamy and dreamy, and the savoury options leave nothing wanting.

Clockwise from top: creamy, dreamy banana & vanilla smoothie bowl with PB + beet cashew cream; mushroom + truffled ricotta tacos; crispy potatoes, snickers bar smoothie; grilled tempeh, Joshua Entis salad bowl.

Henrietta is the 'daughter' half of the Future King & Queen mother-daughter duo, and is the face you'll find in front of a camera. She strives to live gently on this earth, and to make the world a kinder, fairer place.

Henrietta is a recent graduate with a degree in Commerce + a diploma in French, and has a passion for using business skills to drive positive social change. She works in ethical fashion, and is also a model for ethical and sustainably minded brands (drop her a line here if you'd like to work with her). 

After being vegetarian for many years, and gradually transitioning towards veganism, she attended a panel discussion 2 years ago on the dairy industry (held by Voiceless). From then on, it made complete sense to commit to a fully vegan lifestyle, as a way of being compassionate towards animals, the environment and people.

It was then a natural progression to consider the impacts of her other daily decisions, and so her interest in ethical fashion and sustainably minded living in general was born.
