The Big Breakfast was big, the long black was delicious, the staff were friendly with a smile and a quip whilst still professional. I can't understand the poor reviews. Our meal arrived in good time - it was obviously freshly cooked. I asked for GF, and nothing was too much trouble. They swopped out my sausage for halloumi, and they hid a tasty tomato under the bacon. Best bit - the potato rosti/hash brown. Beautifully seasoned. There was a whole shelf of gluten-free sweet treats, 7 options! If only I'd had room after breakfast.
OMG I had the most delicious gluten free lunch here. Salmon and potato ball with a fresh and delicious side salad. As a coeliac, I didn't feel at all sick after it, so I would suggest the food is prepared well from a cross-contamination perspective. I have eaten here a few times over the years and have never been ill.
All I wish is that I took some of those tasty treats away with me! I'll definitely be back here. A place we always go to when down in Invercargill.
The only problem with this place is that it's always so busy. But great vibe and highly recommend. If you are a coeliac please do recheck when you go there about any of your concerns.
Love going to industry whether it's grabbing sweet treats to go or sitting in for a meal.
The food is so yum! Always great gluten free options staff are so lovely and nice and clean premises.
Unfortunately they don’t do soy milk so while the barista & coffee is good it’s not my favourite.
They took the time to explain why they do the mills they do though and the servers here are so nice and helpful.
They also cater to people with allergies, like vegan and gluten intolerant people.
Love the atmosphere here. Hopefully one day they can make their own soy milk! 🤞
We live in Queenstown but we come all the way here, pretty much very often 🤣😅, JUST for Burger Fuel!
Jess at the front desk is awesome, super welcoming , great hospitality and looked after my Gluten Free requests very politely 😊
We had the pleasure to meet the franchisee that was also very charming! Definitely an asset!
Nice atmosphere, very tidy and clean.
Thank you to the whole team! We'll hopefully see you shortly 🍔🥤🤤🤤🤤
Surrounded by green, you can eat & drink in or out. Gluten-free sweet treats available. Smiling staff and happy customers. Perfect for lunch or just a coffee/cup of tea.
Kryz was so awesome to work with! I had a party of 25 and i decided to go with catering from Charlies. Such a good decision. Food outstanding quality and quantity. Such great feedback on the savouries. Also catered for vegetarian and gluten free guests. Kryz made pick up on a Sunday easy too! Totally recommend Charlies for lunch for one or a crowd. Will definitely use again.
Really enjoyed the food, drink and atmosphere...
I have Coeliac disease so I risked the gluten free and had a on-premise brewed cider, Gadoochi Cry Baby. Finally in NZ a cider with sour tart bite to it, delicious 😋 . The gf pizza in plain Italian style was equally delicious...
Staff unintrusive (the way I like it) and a great music soundtrack (perhaps a like loud for me).
First time visit and I'll be back.
Nice meal options. Always pleasing to see sweatbreads on the menu. What really pleased me though was that they comped one of our meals when the gluten free substitute wasn't clarified before serving. Really impressive as we weren't THAT disappointed but they went out of their way to make it right. Thank you
Friendly welcome as soon as we stepped through the door. I loved my gluten free blue cod and chips, and my Virgin Mojito was perfect too. You'll notice my husband thought the fries were delicious too - my photo shows his fork stealing a chip LOL
