Great place for a meal. We had a large party here for celebration. They set up a long table for us. The food was delicious and lots of gluten free options.

Great service . I needed gluten free food and needed to educate the waitress that the fries were not gluten free if they were cooked in a fryer with gluten. So.if you are gluten free/coeliacs don't get their frys. But the rest of the meal was tasty and brilliant

Always a good stopoff here for decent coffee and brunch or lunch. We had the beef nachos for our gluten free daighter, french toast and bacon for the other hungry monster and the veggie stack. If you haven't eaten for days and all you can think about is a big plate to fill the tummy, don't get the veggie stack - it's only just big enough for a wafer thin super model. Order up the big breakfast for big eaters and hungry teenage boys. There's plenty on offer from the cabinet. Coffees are good enough, but not the bestin Tauranga. The girls are always friendly and most times plenty of parking in the Bethlehem Palmers carpark - after you've doused your body in as much caffeine as you can drink, pick up some pot plants and get into the garden to work off some of those calories!

One of the few restaurants in area that's right on the water 💧 sit outside or in during summer and quite a few tables with views. Situated at the Tauranga Bridge Marina, the views are the boats, the harbour and Sulphur point container wharf, so busy busy. We've dined here a number of times at different times of day and night and the service has always been excellent. Tapas menu as well as mains and desserts. Brunch menu as well. A good selection of gluten free dishes from all menus. Today, we shared a tapa beetroot with smoked duck and citrus infused feta. 10/10. Then the crunchy pork belly, peach, yummy sauce with vegetables. Brett had salmon on lemon infused risotto. Both beautifully cooked. Dessert menu looked delicious but we couldn't do it justice. We will be back 🍾

This little pocket of a place was amazing so, after buying my daughter and I some food, my wife suddenly rang me and asked for a coffee and some gluten-free food if they had any well indeed they did, I ask for one item then lovely woman serving asked me if she was a coeliac, and I said yes she in that instant proceeded to put on gloves and continued with the order, I gotta say that was pretty cool, and let's not bypass the fact that food is amazing and the people are too.

Please be aware their Matcha Lattes are a blend, not pure Matcha powder. Contains gluten, milk, soy and egg. I had an almond milk matcha latte today to then spend the rest of morning tea violently vomiting in their bathroom. Only to receive a “oh sorry” after I asked on my way out if they accidentally gave me dairy milk instead of almond milk further leading to showing me the “Matcha Blend” ingredients list

Went here last night as we were in Wharf Street having a drink and noticed a new place. The food was so tasty. Got the lamb and will be back to try more.

Went to drive thru as saves getting wheelchair out. Have eftpos and the girl was very helpful, swipping my card for me (no pay way) and as I have arthritis in most places, but especially hands and knees, I find it difficult to do on my own. That's why I love pay wave. I had the double cheeseburger combo, sharing the meat patties with my Chessie (my vet please don't see this😉)and it was scrumptious. I didn't eat the bun (gluten intolerant) and wondered if rest would upset my tummy (but I was starving) and 8 hours later are feeling fine. Not sure if I could say the same for MacDonald burgers. Suggestion - why don't these places offer gluten free buns.? SUBWAY Great to see also that finally SUBWAY are offering gluten free wraps.
