Coffs Gem - Edit
Fantastic menu. Eat in or takeaway. The Brekkie Beans are simple and filling. Kim and the team just get better and better at the coffee thing. Pasta salad to take home - what more could you want.

One-stop shop for the vegan tourist - Edit
Location is central. Vegan/vegetarian food. Combines cafe with homewares (baskets) and grocery/store (personal care items, veggie snacks/treats, fruit, vegies, veggie cookbooks, etc.).
Read moreCafe staff were nice, food was great.
(Oct 2023) $14.50 for a "medium" (3 salad) bowl. The servings were huge. Would just have light brekky at hotel, late lunch here and not need dinner. Salad bar had a lot of vegan options, enjoyed mixing and matching different combos. Has cakes/treats, not many vegan. The "yum balls" are massive and yummo.

Healthy, fresh & tasty. - Edit
My go to place for lunch when visiting Coffs Harbour. Wide range of vegan salads, fresh juices and other healthy foods. There is also a grocery section selling fruit, vegetables, bread, condiments, books and eco utensils. It's got everything and it's yum 😋

Yummy salads (vegan potato salad!!) - Edit
Stopped in here while on a road trip and really enjoyed the food. There are lots of different salad options, including vegan potato salad that really reminds me of the kind my mum made growing up. We also got the falafel wrap which was enjoyable, but could do with a bit more sauce. Overall good food and good value.

Not bad, vegan options - Edit
Coffs doesn't yet have much vegan wise but this place has some decent salads and savory food, marked as vegan. It's a bit pricey and would be better if they went vegan only but not bad.

Variety of salads and good cakes - Edit
Had some salads with a lentil patty and hommus topping which gives the little kick to the salad. The whole earth smoothie is really good!! But be careful, not all smoothies are vegan, some are with milk😡the vegan cakes are pretty yummy 😋

Great place for breakfast - Edit
Stopped for breakfast and coffee, lots of options on menu and in deli cabinet. Great atmosphere. Kids activities and loads of fliers and posters for local services and events with natural health/social justice/environmental theme. They made us home cooked beans on toast with avocado and hummus - generous portion and really delicious. Also shop with eco wares and local produce.

Love this place - Edit
The Happy Frog is one of the few places in Coffs that does fresh and delicious vegan food at a reasonable price. The watermelon and chilli juice is amazing. The felafel roll is awesome. The staff are friendly. Sadly all the takeaway is served in plastic. It would be great to have a cardboard or other environmentally friendly option.

Lunch on the go. - Edit
Have visited The Happy Frog several times while traveling on business the past 12 months. Always a great salad selection with Vegan options. Coffee also good.
Read moreI wish I have more time to sit and look around the store.
Perhaps the lay out confuses first time visitors?
It's always busy with locals and fits perfectly with a relaxed atmosphere.
Pros: great salad selections
Cons: none

Don't Bother - Edit
We have been coming twice a year since it opened as we were happy there was a vege restaurant between Sydney and Byron.The service is woeful.The server would not move so that we could easily make our salad selections.She rudely rolled her eyes as we shuttled back and forth from the cashier to the food display.The salads are now drier and the falafel wrap left me feeling queasy.The service has always been dodgy with diffuse queues and lack of enthusiasm by staff.Granted it has usually been very busy.However, on this most recent visit, there was no queue despite being around 1pm.We will be picnicking rather than stopping in the future.
Read morePros: All vegetarian,albeit with eggs
Cons: Boring food, Rude uninterested staff

Great food! - Edit
A very vibrant and positive feel to the place! We came for lunch - great salad, really tasty. Lots of vegan options, but also choices for vegetarians too. Great healthy juices. There's a lovely seating area on the pavement, if the weather is nice. If in the area again I would undoubtedly be back.
