During my time in Alice, the team at Tea Shrine were diamonds in the rough. They have an unrivalled plant based menu and lots of tea. Most dishes are vegan, or can be made vegan/gluten free on request I'll miss the friendly staff and wonderful food

What a hidden gem this mall is. Luckily we stumbled across Simply Foods, as we were peckish. I had the vegetable croquet and spinach/ricotta ball and could not fault it. My mouth was singing! Sorry there was not much food left for the photos as it was too tasty. So many choices, gluten free sugar free, vegan...all in all Simply Foods is Simply Delicious!! One star lacking for no smile with the service.

An oasis of style and in the perfect location to explore Litchfield Park. We stayed in two of the upgraded rooms and they were stunning. Totally surpassed our expectations in terms of style and amenities. The room had been refurbished with care and a brilliant eye for detail,. The best quality room we have stayed in during our two weeks in the NT, my only regret was not staying longer. Lil Ripper cafe was excellent. I was slightly dubious about ordering the oysters but I’m glad I did. As good as I’ve had anywhere. Also great gluten free options, including ribs, steak, barramundi and pizza bases - they were very careful with the order for the coeliac in our party and everything was well marked on the menu. Also try to pop into the zebra stone shop on the way to the national park. A really passionate owner, with exquisite stones and jewellery for all budgets.

Great location overlooking beach, great layout, and fit out. Despite being quite open, it had enough corners that it was not super noisy. Menu was extensive, good df and gluten-free options. Lunch was divine, chicken & avocado open grill with delicious salad & chips, yum.. i would return for that routinely! Sandwiches are good. Juice & smoothies were yummy, too. Service was friendly & fairly efficient. The only reason I gave it 4, not 5 stars, was that service could be improved. Table service would be an improvement. Also, when we went up to order, we were enquiring about menu items & she was not super helpful. The food was a bit slow coming out, but service was ok, it just seemed rushed (it was busy). Table water.. filling jugs yourself was a pain.. can they not be prefilled in a better container? This took ages, it was a very slow filter, gave up after halfway. Small matters, but resolved, could make it a 5/5 Overall, I enjoyed our lunch & would return.

If you want excellent Cafe fare, including unusually good options for gluten/dairy free as well as vegan options, then this cosy out-of-the-way Cafe is for you. They manage great taste and presentation as well as generous serves. It's unobtrusive situated around the back of a creche playground which adds to a safe, welcoming feel. Hearing the laughter of little children is never a bad thing!

If you’re travelling through Tennant Creek and feel like a Coffee or a café meal, I can highly recommend the staff and shop as a whole. We just wanted a light lunch and chose Bacon and egg toasties, being Coeliac I asked about gluten free food and they said that they had a great range. The chef said because gluten free bread is small size he made mine using 3 slices. Food is either dine in or takeaway.

This is my go-to spot for a consistent breakfast feast with my family - we can never finish it all, huge portions 👏 The food & service is always A+, it’s nice not having to go out to Coolalinga to try the food this kitchen serves up. Love the breezy outdoor area, one of the few places in Darwin you can sit outside & not sweat 😂 The gluten free fritters, avocado toast & chorizo & hollumi bake are always exceptional. Thanks again guys!
