I like this cafe and really close to my house. The coffee is strong which is great but I so so so wish they served Oat, Almond or Coconut milk as Soy is just not for everyone and I find the Hazelnut milk a bit watery. The food is good with quite a few "amazing" Gluten Free options which awesome to see.
With spacious indoor and outdoor seating, this bustling spot offers amazing coffee and a variety of delicious sweet and savory treats.

One of few cafés around these days that are open early for breakfast (opens at 8am - many we've tried to go to don't open until 10am). Good gluten free options on both the menu and in the cabinet. I had the smashed avo (with added bacon) which was divine! The cabinet food looked amazing and I'm very keen to go back to try some of the delights in there. Fast, friendly service. I'll be back!
Enjoy a vibrant mix of fresh, unique dishes and classic favorites, all served in a welcoming vibe that keeps everyone coming back for more.

Had some great vegetarian gluten free items for lunch including a roasted vegetable muffin that had egg and cheese and a curried quinoa and chick pea salad with their own curry spices, and a roasted kumara and beat salad with feta - all delicious. Hubby loved his pepper steak and cheese pie. Thanks! Fresh vegetables for sale looked good and well-priced.
Loved all the gluten free options! They even made us a Bday GF cake in just two days notice and accommodated all our requests :)) Very thankful for this lovely and tasty place.
It is a lovely cozy cafe. The staff is friendly and helpful. The menu is great - it has gluten-free and vegan options. If I would visit the town again, I would come back to that place.
Charming spot with a cozy vibe, well-loved for its delicious morning meals and amazing coffee—perfect for a relaxed breakfast experience.

While visiting Richmond from Whangarei,We had our breakfast three mornings here.So yummy and cooked beautifully. My husband is gluten free and there are plenty of g/f options too.
Fantastic coffee and friendly staff.We for recommend Lydia's Cafe from our hosts where we stayed and will recommend to our friends and Family who head to Nelson
This place is AMAZING and delicious. So many options from healthy salads to gluten free berry crumble cake with cream. Even if the food had been mediocre, I would come back just for the service. Ruby was so friendly and even offered to show us around the city. Unfortunately we are leaving town tomorrow otherwise we would have taken her up on it! Thank you so much for the lovely lunch and hospitality.
Quaint lovely food, built during the second world War by conscientious objectors as a commune, still true to the style this cafe serves local and organic, gluten free. Vegetarian and vegan food staff very pleasant and helpful. Pretty busy at lunch time with outdoor seating in the sun or inside if you prefer. An amazing garden setting with massive collection of cacti of all different shapes and sizes to wonder at. Great for late morning or afternoon in the sun
This is our default eat out. Great food, good proportion, excellent gluten free options. Separate fryer for chips if you ask. Amazing local staff and owners! Good small town rustic atmosphere.
A charming cafe steeped in history, known for its rich coffee and flavorful dishes, making it a must-visit spot in town.

The best Cafe in town! Great friendly staff owned by a family. Has amazing coffee and heaps of history behind all the different types. We had Katsu and Karaage chicken Donburi’s and they were so tender and filled with heaps of flavour. They also cater for gluten free options. We always eat there when we come up to Motueka, 10/10 recommend 🤩
Nice place to spot off on our cycle ride. The fruit juice lollies were very refreshing. Some gluten free cakes on offer and an extensive drink selection. We didn't have a milkshake but the ones on the table beside us looked pretty impressive.
Unique wraps and a cozy vibe make this spot stand out, plus excellent green tea to keep you warm—perfect for a casual break!

I ordered the vegetarian glutenfree wrap with a green tea. So nice to find something different in the cabinet. Most cafes have a salad or fritters. Really enjoyed it. Tea was good too, and stayed lovely and hot. Thank you.
My partner enjoyed his coffee and pie too.
Friendly staff. All smiling and looking as though they enjoy there jobs. Cheers
