Great lunch in this groovy cafe.....

This is a funky cafe with good menu options & everything vegan is clearly marked on the menu boards. We had the coated cauliflower with dipping sauce & greens and the vegan nachos. Great portions & reasonable prices. Tasty, fresh food with good flavours. We shared plates & both enjoyed each of these meals.

The cafe was busy but the counter & food service was still prompt. A sunny afternoon with live music in the courtyard made this a relaxing Saturday afternoon lunch. You can see why this cafe is popular in this community. Recommended if you're visiting Lyttleton.

Pros: Tasty food., Good vegan options., Friendly service & good value

Nice cafe with vegan options

For tourists Lyttelton is lovely to walk around make extra time to have a look around the village and pop over the wounder bar for a drink. If this cafe is closed the chip shop cook in oil!

Shrooms!

What a lovely little cafe! I had the shroom room special and it was amazing. Reasonably quick service too! Definitely worth the drive to Lyttleton from Christchurch!

Pros: Many vegan options! , lots of seating

Cons: half of seating is outside (cold)

Eclectic place, lots of vegan options

I reckon about 50% of the menu is vegan or vegan option. We had buckwheat pancakes and a peace plate (hash and salad) for breakfast. Both really good! Pancakes were a little on the heavy side but still good, huge portion and you don't need syrup thanks for delish coconut vanilla cream (syrup is optional extra but they're sweet enough trust me). Fast and polite service. Cool interior decor. Cabinet foods and smoothies also available. It cost around $40 for food and hot drinks, so price appropriate.

Great Food and Coffee!!!!

The place has a cool vibe and the food is great. I had an amazing falafel burger last time I was there. The prices are very reasonable and the coffee is great. The only bad thing about it is that it is so busy and popular!

Pros: Great food, Great coffee, Cool vibe

Holla!

Kickass options for vegans here. I smashed back a dark chocolate and coconut Bounty Bar thick shake with soy ice cream in it and a big thick piece of bread with creamy mushrooms and pesto on top, with a phenomenal hash brown and salsa.
awesome.

Nice Mushies

While good vegetarian food may be a challenge to find in Christchurch, Shroom Room Cafe in Lyttelton, just a little out of Christchurch is a real vegetarian treat. Admittedly we have only visited once, but the experience was pleasant enough for me to comment. The menu has numerous vegan options, plus gluten free options and they make good use of mushrooms (as you would guess). We ordered the Shroom Room Shrooms with hash browns to share and a couple of coffees. The shrooms came with a lovely pesto and yummy chutney and the hash browns were quite a bit larger than we had expected, and of course the serving of mushrooms was ample and delicious. The meal we ordered was quite massive (so it is lucky that we chose to share this dish), the coffees were okay and the staff were refreshingly happy. The décor consisted of an eclectic mix of 60s and 70s inspired bits and pieces, making it a nice informal breakfast or lunch dining experience (outdoor seating available). If we had some more time in Christchurch we would go back again and try more yummy goodies on their menu!

Pros: Mushrooms!, Lots of vegan & gf options, Happy staff

the shroom room is probably the best place in the christchurch area for vegan food. today i had the vegan treehugger sandwich and it was so delicious that we bought two more to take home for dinner. the service is really friendly and genuine. the atmosphere was great. the music was pleasant. everything was great. i can't wait to return. highly recommended.

Pros: excellent food, excellent coffee, reasonable price

Cons: in lyttelton
