Delicious options and great service - Edit
Lovely cafe serving a plethora of options for breakfast and lunch. The falafel waffles are a must - the perfect ratio of crisp on the outside and soft in the middle, with the most delicious sauce. 👌

Great healthy, tasty food - Edit
I've been here a few times and it's always been fabulous. The food is healthy and tastes amazing. Great size servings, very filling. The breakfast burrito is delish, has a smokey flavour and very filling. Epic brekkie bowl is wholesome, and just delightful. We also had kick starter and cacao smoothie both yummy. The place has a cool, garden feel vibe. A must visit for breakfast or lunch.

You will be FULL and satisfied - Edit
Lovely place, lovely staff, I had the Bedouin bowl and thought the falafel waffles were a great unique take on waffles! Also fun to fill with all the delicious hummus dips.
Read moreHealthy and filling, I would definitely go back to try more bowls. Will note they are quite expensive though, esp with a 10% weekend surcharge, but at least we can be assured that the workers are being paid fairly hehe

More than just brown rice - Edit
I’ll admit I had not made a point of coming to this place for a while because the idea of a Buddha Bowl is generally just a really tedious and unappetising thing for me. However, I was pleasantly surprised. From the lovely atmosphere with plants, shade and alcoves, to the sustainable practices, it was a good first impression. Certainly the qmenu did have its share of ‘brown rice and sweet potato’ dishes 🤮 but it also had some more interesting ones, two of which I shared with my companion. I avoided rice and chose the pesto pasta, which was hot, tasty and substantial, even if it did have a pile of ‘healthy’ kale and broccolini on top. I allowed myself to be upsold the almond feta, which was tangy and lemony in flavour and went nicely with the Turkish bread. My companion’s choice was the tamari noodle bowl, which was hearty and pleasant in flavour with its strongly flavoured tamari and mirin dressing, but it was unfortunately swimming in said dressing. It also ordered a blue algae smoothie, which I will almost always do if it’s on the menu because I love the vibrant blue colour. This one looked more like baby blue paint but it was pretty nonetheless. The flavour was pretty much just banana, with the shredded coconut giving it a bit of chewy texture. Definitely a valid option for lunch in Newtown.

Fresh fusion of flavours - Edit
We dropped in here, on our way into the city, needing something to take in our bags for lunch at the Botanic gardens.
Read moreI choose the Tamari Noodle Bowl, my partner had the Bipimbap Korean Bowl, also ordered a take away Chai.
We both enjoyed these bowls immensely, it was such a delicious surprise, so fresh, tasty, and a filling lunch.
Highly recommend dining here.
We popped in again the next day to sit and enjoy a pot of Chai … one of the best my partner has tasted - a real depth of flavour & piping hot.
Pros: The fresh, tasty ingredients, The flavour fusion of each bowl, The delicious authentic Chai

Delicious - Edit
I adore this place, I’ve been here countless times. My favourite menu item is the simple sourdough toast with scrambled tofu, I love that you can order toast with different sides and it’s super affordable. They do a variety of buddha bowls, it is a hard choice because everything tastes great. They also do great chai here, comfortable seating inside and the staff are super lovely!

Best breakfast ever! - Edit
Who knew that Buddha bowls could be this exciting?! We absolutely loved all the food we had here.
Read moreThe Epic Brekkie Bowl was fantastic, the best cooked breakfast I've ever had. The lemon and turmeric slice in the glass cabinet was sensational.
Such a great start to the day, they use good quality fresh whole food and the bowls were so filling, we really were set up for the day.
Each bowl is packed with nutrition and flavour and beautifully presented. I wish I could eat breakfast at the Buddha Bowl Cafe everyday!
Service was very good indeed, and the owner was welcoming and friendly which gives the cafe a cool chilled vibe.
