In the heart of Byron Bay, just a short stroll from the ocean,
No Bones is rewriting the rules of plant-based dining. Since
opening in April 2018, founders Tahlia and Yasmina have set out to
prove that vegan food isn’t about sacrifice, it’s about abundance.
Their mission has always been bigger than the plate: bring people
together, meat-eaters and vegans alike and show that sustainable
dining can be exciting, indulgent and deeply satisfying.
From day one, No Bones has been anchored by a belief that
every choice counts. Choosing a plant-based meal helps lower
environmental impact and when that meal bursts with flavour,
creativity and care, it’s a win for both palate and planet. Over the
years, the restaurant has steadily evolved, driven by a commitment
to community, climate action and culinary excellence.
Working towards 100% carbon neutrality, the team has made
sourcing local a priority, supporting Australian-grown produce
and seeking out ethical suppliers. This dedication ensures every
ingredient tells a story: from the silky eggplant parmigiana to the
crispy konjac “calamari” and fragrant mushroom pate, every dish is
built on freshness, seasonality and innovation.
No Bones is more than a place to eat; it’s a gathering space. From a
buzzing happy hour where vegan cocktails and natural wines meet
colourful share plates, to evenings filled with conversation and
flavour, it’s a celebration of community. The atmosphere captures
Byron Bay’s signature blend of coastal ease and creative spirit,
making every visit feel like coming home to friends.
But what really sets No Bones apart is its ability to bridge worlds.
Here, committed vegans bring their omnivore friends, and both
leave equally impressed. It’s not about labels, it’s about flavour that
speaks for itself. That’s why travellers often leave saying it was the
best meal of their trip and locals keep coming back for more.
In a town celebrated for its natural beauty and conscious living, No
Bones has carved out a space that feels both modern and timeless.
A place where good food becomes a shared act of care for the
planet. Whether you come for a cocktail, a full tasting menu, or
just to see what plant-based dining can be, you’ll leave with a full
stomach, a happy heart and maybe a new way of looking at what’s
on your plate.
