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.

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! 🤞

Great environment to meet up for a morning catch-up and Sunday lunches. The food is great, vegetarian potato bake and pasta comfort food options would be a bonus. I noted they offered an excellent range of gluten-free options. Service and environment were perfect.

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.
