Amazing!

This is such an amazing spot! So many vegan options - it was hard to choose! We wound up getting both versions of the buckwheat waffles and they were delicious! It’s also in such a fun shared space with several other spots and a gorgeous atrium area. We may have to stop back in again before our trip is over!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Desserts made without refined sugar, Fun space with lots of things to look at!

SOOOOOOO GOOOD!!

This place is awesome in every way. The staff are friendly & helpful and just a picture of health. The food is divine and you can tell it's made with love and that the owner & staff are passionate about providing plant based foods, which makes it taste even better!! There's lots of choices and coffees, teas, and smoothies too😄My partner & I shared the buckwheat waffles which looked soo pretty and were so delicious to eat. We also had a smoothies each so our bellies were contented and satisifed. But it was too good to just walk away so we took takeway barefoot bowls home (like a buddha bowl) . They travelled well back to Hokitika, where we had them for dinner. We will definitely be back everytime we are in ChCh ..might even have to make a special trip over the hill especially just for lunch at this fantastic place.

A slice of Oasis in the City

That cold press juice on tap is ridiculously good. Staff were very friendly about running over the menu and helping me with swapping ingredients around.

Great to see the city coming to life and a friendly plant based eatery open up.

We tried the Nourish Bowl and Toasted sandwich which was well balanced and full of flavour.

We will be back!

Promising but pricey

Came for breakfast just after 7am to be told the chef doesn’t start till 8am, so could only order a smoothie bowl. Okay but small. The chai was amazing but also small. A bit overpriced but would try again later in the day. With only one person serving & making food they need more staff earlier.

Delicious wholesome food

Super delicious food and fresh juices on tap. The guy there was also really friendly and helpful. The space is nice to sit in (part of a complex). Only downside was the price - but maybe that’s just Christchurch. The food was very good but not overly filling. We got a bowl and a veggie toast between us

Pros: Taste, Quality ingredients, Staff

Cons: Price

Pretty good!

A lovely venue. Staff are friendly. There’s a few teething issues with it being new. We waited almost 15 minutes for three coffees while four staff were buzzing around without much urgency. Note the cafe wasn’t busy. The food however was great. Hopefully they iron out the creases & start to provide top quality service!

Pros: Great food. Very tasty, An impressive range of juices & shakes

Cons: The service was slow. Staff need specific roles

A haven of taste 😍

I eat at this restaurant twice and I can say both times I was super impressed. Firstly it’s wonderful to find an all vegan restaurant in the city and the location is fantastic. It’s a new complex with a kind of Boho leaning. There are various stores around a courtyard which has lovely tables,comfortable seats and even some swinging hammocks . Lots of plants as well. The smoothies were wonderful and I cannot differentiate between them, all were very very good. I had the açai berry and Chia in coconut milk with Buckwheat granola. Portions very very good and it was a delightful breakfast. The next day I had smashed avocado on toast with a kale spread, another delicious combo and very very generous portions. They’ve been open three weeks with a lovely friendly staff who were attentive and happy to please! 10 out of 10.

Pros: All vegan and lots of options, Great location, Moderate prices
