Amazing gluten free breakfast, staff lovely and my partner rated his harvest breakfast one of his best!! Highly recommend 🙂

Margot

A local, love the ethos however twice now have had a GF scone resulting in a gluten reaction. Contamination somewhere in the process? Cannot be contributed to anything else as deliberately tested on the second occasion. Wont risk it again :-(

Liz Harvey

A local recommended the Paper Mulberry for lunch and I'm so glad they did. Great cottage-style decor featuring local arts and produce, we had a delicious lunch. Also available is a variety of slices, pies and sandwiches. Generous servings.delicious food, friendly service, plenty of gluten-free options.

Gill Stewart

Fish was nicely pan-fried. To many chips for a lunch meal but great if hungery, the salad had a nice light dressing. Good selection of gluten free options. Large range of alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks.

Angel Anderson

We had a beautiful high tea at Adoro. The amount of food included in the price was very generous and we all left very full. One of our guests were gluten free and they catered to this no problem with her receiving her very own tea for one platter witb almost the exact same as everyone else but gf. Everything was lovely the only one thing that was slightly lacking was the service. No one came back for a tea order, however this could be a teething issue as this is new to them!

Scotty Matthews

Delectable Havana coffee. The barista knows what he’s doing as it’s hard to get a good long black these days. The gluten free carrot cake is the best I’ve ever had. Outstanding. Better than any other including gluten free speciality places in Wellington. I can’t wait to return with more time to indulge.

Karla Mitchell

Awesome place to stop. Dog friendly and good gluten free selection. We will definitely be back.

Craig Wilson

Good gluten free choice and very tasty Poppys egg bene

Had our sons wedding 60 guests on saturday 4 pm on . Food was great , everything they served was delicious . Staff were helpful nothing was a bother. There were quite a few ceoliac ( gluten free) and they were more than happy with food too and no one was unwell the next day . Couldn't speak more highly of food .venue etc

Ros Coote

'The Columbus' is the best breakfast by far we have found in Hastings - two can share easily if you add a side - the chef really does excellent Haloumi. Keto, gluten-free and dairy-free are well catered for. The venue seems pretty wheelchair accessible too.

Kathrine Rice (Kate)

Stopped by for brunch at this cafe in Napier. The cafe was busy which is a good sign. The service was fast & friendly, and the food was very good including both sweet & savoury cabinet options for gluten free. A menu is available but we bought food from the cabinet, so can't comment on that except to say that the soup seemed popular as they sold out of both options.

Being celiac it was great to see a variety for a change and very appetitizing looking and tasty food what a lovely change thank you

Bryce Moller

Great little cafe in the centre of Havelock North. Helpful and friendly staff, good service and great for gluten free meals. Would recommend:)

Michele Astill

Went in today as there was some good reviews on gluten free, I was very disappointed all they could offer was a brownie slice as it was close to lunchtime I would've like something more.

Melanie Nicholls

Delicious meal, so tasty. We are both coeliac and the staff couldn’t have been more helpful, knew what they were doing.

Don Armstrong

I have coeliac disease and never find anything gluten free to take away that is both unique and delicious...anywhere. I stopped in briefly on our way South from Gisborne and found your curried cauli tart....I enjoyed it immensly! Not only was it yummy, the GF pastry was beautiful and the pepitas on top finished it off. Congrats and regards, Lesley from Tassie, Australia😁

Lorraine McFadgen

Fantastic place to visit Lollies are A1 and plenty for Gluten Free too Beautiful gallery and popular for dining

Jason Cole

Friendly staff and great, fresh gluten free options. We go here at least once a week and I can always rely on them to have something tasty I can eat. Fantastic.

Steve Arthur

excellent service, the the food is fantastic, especially the gluten free toasted sandwiches.

Colleen Horton

Great coffee and gluten free range

Donna Powell

A good selection of Gluten free foods.

Marcus & Anna Smith

Went for a dinner with gluten free friends, we ordered drinks and four mains to share. Amazed that all but two of the options on the menu were gluten free. Food came out almost instantly and the flavours were incredible. We couldn’t even pick a favourite, they were all amazing. A bit disappointed we couldn’t try dessert as we were too full. Something to look forward to next time. Wait staff were attentive and friendly.

David Adams

Lots of outdoor seating, lots of pies my mince and cheese pie was very good, and had some gluten free sandwiches. Has a milk bar feel about it rather than a cost cafe.

Jen Gale

Love their pizzas! Especially as the provide gluten free options.

Mike and Leanne Roberts

Always gluten free options - interesting variety of cabinet food - great coffee and atmosphere!

Janet Dougherty

I am a gluten free and dairy free eater and they worked to accommodate my strange eating habits. Yummmmeeee salad provided. Thanks so much for looking out for those of us who are picky eaters.

Fiona Ferris

I can't say enough good things about Ajuna. I've had brunch and lunch there on a number of occasions and it's always been fantastic. The meals are lush, abundant, fresh, delicious and all-round yum. There are interesting dishes such as the smoked fish, and the caesar salad was amazing. Everything is very fresh. Easy for gluten-free/celiac too.

Fiona Sergent

Artisan is fantastic, the food is to die for with yummy gluten free options. The service is great and the ladies are very friendly and welcoming.

Collette Fergus

Glad we found this delectable cafe before we left town. Out of everywhere we visited this week this one's was the best. Coffee was delicious , eggs Benedict with salmon and the big breakfast. Staff were attentive and the atmosphere was perfect. Loved bring by the seaside and how modern this cafe is. Definitely recommend a visit. My sidekick said the gluten free bread was the best he’s ever tasted. It’s made on site and looks delicious!

Sherrie Wallace

Great food & coffee. Gluten free & dairy free options as well. Highly recommend!

Kathryn Maloney

The Village Green cafe boldly announces gluten-free options in large lettering painted on its outside wall, so I was expecting a good choice for breakfast. Therefore, I was incredibly disappointed to find that my only choices appeared to include egg (which it's never cooked to my taste in cafes). When I asked if the granola was g-f, I felt the waitress and kitchen staff almost ridiculed me for asking such a dumb question. Trust me, it's not hard to make a g-f granola. So disappointing.

Addrianna Wing (Acey Angel)

Great store! This location has an amazing range of gluten free products! The smell of their hummingbird coffee when you walk in really helps create a welcome atmosphere. The flowers are so gorgeous! Also, produce is usually quite fresh unless it's out of season(which I'd say will be unavoidable at times). Prices are eh, but that's everywhere these days, so I don't really shopped based on price anymore. Haven't tried the sushi or deli items, but partner says their pastries and bakery items are okay. Store layout is ideal, even when it's really busy their employees work hard and are always very kind and helpful! It's my favorite store to shop at! (We usually shop really early, unless it's a Sunday, then we shop around afternoon.

Jan Drake

An amazing cafe with the best staff. Their selection of gluten free food is incredible and the coffee is devine.

Fiona Parrant

Rapid Bubbles

Russell Paget

Nice cafe great choice of food including gluten free Friendly staff good service Great stop off if your on a trip Only downfall no outside seating but it is on a very busy road Bonus there is a great river side walk in Clive that leads to the sea and wetlands

Conrad Kirk

Ordered breakfast for 2 with drinks. Server confused with request of no bread (gluten free) and asked for a substitute. Paid sat down and received 1 breakfast only, asked waiter to check, the cashier then came out to our table to argue with me that we never ordered a 2nd breakfast!! Showing me it wasnt on her till reciept! Which clearly shows she never rang it up in the first place, she made a scene in front of my guest and the table next to us who commented to us they couldn’t believe her behaviour. Overall disappointing unprofessional service, would not bother going back there again. Sutto is not what it use to once be, clearly gone down hill and now the customer is always wrong!

Karla Mitchell

Great spot to sit outside with friends in the large shady yard. Good selection of gluten free food, and dog friendly as well. Looking forward to coming back next time we're in Napier.

Gavin Cooper

Best steak sandwich for ages and thanks for being so accommodating for our Gluten Free needs.

marion mcgregor

Rapid Bubbles

Top notch, really decent selection, lots of gluten free option and great coffee!

Carmelle Schofield

This is a place that we often go when visiting family in Hastings. Worth the drive as atmosphere, setting, service and food is always fantastic. Gluten free options are really good too, not your standard token nachos and gluten free sandwiches. Highly recommend the gluten free chicken. Delicious!

Maggie O

Great coffee, great kawakawa tea and other varieties of beverages, highly recommend the coffee and Gluten free chocolate brownie combo. Fantastic friendly staff. Bathroom on site, outdoor seating under umbrellas.
