Good Burgers!....

We called in here after an early evening flight into Wellington. If you have a vehicle, it's very close & handy to the airport.
A supper of burgers & fries before we got on the road.

Good dinner menu options for Vegans and everything is clearly labelled. They offer variable sizes of meals with moderate pricing and great hours for a suburban cafe.
We had the Native Burger (loved the pineapple salsa!), and the BFC (Cheesy!). Both were good portions (not too big!) with tasty flavours and textures. Tasty burger buns too. The vegan aioli with the fries was one of the best we've had in a cafe.

Friendly, knowledgeable staff with good table service. We'll definitely return when we are back on Wellington's South Coast.

Pros: Friendly service. Meals served promptly., Good prices ~ Good Food., Handy location and hours for the nearby airport.

I'll keep going back

... until I've tried everything on the menu, but that's going to be hard because I also want to enjoy the same things again! Really delicious and inspired food with lots of choice on the menu. The decor is elegant. Overall I really love the place!

Absolutely Delightful

My mum and I went in for dinner and had the most fabulous meal. It was wonderful to find a place that catered to our challenging combination of intolerances and dietary requirements, and in such a divine way!

I will be recommending this place to all my friends, vegetarian and otherwise! :)

Pros: excellent choice, lots of GF options, lovely staff

First time and not the last!

A great dining experience in a lovely spot. Had the 'veganise me' brunch. Every bite was a complete joy. I highly recommend.

Great brunch vegan options

Sunday brunch outside it was a wild wet Wellington morning, inside it was warm welcoming and pumping. Great food super friendly attentive waitstaff who were up front about wait time for food. Food didn't disappoint it was well presented and delicious. All organic and vegan options check it out.
