AI Summary

Melbourne CBD's $10 all-you-can-eat Hare Krishna canteen serving vegetarian curry and halwa daily.

Simple, calm self-serve canteen with a spiritual undertone; Hare Krishna kirtan plays, seating spreads over two levels overlooking the trees, and it stays peaceful even when packed at lunch.

Genuinely all-you-can-eat for a fixed low price, with unlimited refills on the day's curry, rice, papadums, dessert and plain lassi; the menu changes daily and a concession rate applies for students and seniors.

Run as a Hare Krishna community kitchen serving sattvic vegetarian food; reviewers reference the devotional atmosphere, chanting, and meals offered as mahaprasadam.

Exceptional value by consensus: a full meal with unlimited refills, dessert and a drink for around $9-10, with a discounted concession rate near $7.50-8.50 for students and seniors.
