Organic grocery store and cafe

Great to have lots of plastic free food items bulk items for sale. Also plastic free and vegan deodorants, shampoos etc. The cafe in the same store was nice. Few different options to choose from. I had a chocolate milkshake which was pretty nice, exciting to have it as an option. Had the mushroom quiche for lunch. It was an affordable price. The filling was very herby and the pastry a little undercooked. Some desserts in the cabinet too

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Plastic free and vegan grocery items for sale, Affordable cafe prices

Cons: Quiche was only okay

Healthy, Happy, Tasty Food

Such a cool place! A lovely selection of organic vegan foods for breakfast and lunch. I had the mushroom quiche which was the nicest one I've ever had since being vegan. I also had the chai which was really flavoursome and creamy. The shop stocks some great vegan grocery items too. Definitely worth a visit if you're in Maitland.

Pros: Healthy, Flavoursome, Variety

Rare Store & Cafe focused on Wholefoods.

This is the only store I know of in my area where as a WFPB Vegan, I can go to the onsite cafe and find more than 1 choice of Avo on toast as a Vegan menu choice! - including desserts, beverages, & juices.
After enjoying a great meal, I can shop for those hard to find ingredients to take home for my cooking. Love discovering new and different foods not found in big supermarkets. Lots of small batch Aussie produced goodies. An Aladdin's cave for vegan and vegetarian foodies. Not to forget their fresh produce, personal care, supplements, and organic wine sections.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Currently operating within Covid19 restrictions

One stop shop.

This is a great place to grab everything you need. Fantastic for a Sunday breakkie, but also highly recommend to people travelling through the area. You can stock up on gluten/wheat free bread, fruit/veg, toiletries and all the grocery needs. Great options for specialty products too including alkaline water.

The cafe is great. Always vegan options available and produce is local and organic where possible.

This is a specialty store so be prepared to pay specialty prices. But overall it’s a really lovely space to eat and shop. They often have events or promotions running.

Pros: Vegan options. , Hard to find specialty products available. , Perfect for travellers to stock up!

Cons: Expensive!, Cafe has expanded but can be hard to find a seat

This is a magical place

Organics, whole foods, vegan groceries, and the vegan options at the cafe are amazing. Recommend the breakfast board with the marinated mushrooms, pickled Beetroot and cashew cheese.
