🫶🏻 We had a wonderful experience at Miss Kangsta! As a gluten-free (coeliac!) restaurant, it’s absolutely fantastic — delicious food, fresh ingredients, and so many creative options. The staff was welcoming and very knowledgeable about dietary needs, which made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend for anyone looking for amazing gluten-free dining in Wellington!

My local cafe and possibly my favourite cafe ever. As a celiac they have an amazing range of gluten free options. The food and coffee are delicious and the staff are amazing and so friendly. It also feels like a really welcoming place to bring my kids; they have a box of toys and coloring in to offer. I go there often and can't recommend this place enough!

Had an excellent gluten free fish and chips. GF batter and dedicated fryer produced a delectable, non-greasy batter-dipped fish and accompanying fries. Super helpful wait person too!

In particular, the gluten-free base was outstanding. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, even offering to cook our pizza in a separate oven. While we didn’t need it, we truly appreciated the thoughtful gesture. The fennel seeds paired with the tomato and garlic base created a memorable flavor combination. It was a wonderful evening out with family. Yum!

We went in for Burger Wellington. Being Ceoliac i didn't have any expectation that they would offer a GF bun much less know about the importance of cross contamination.. But they did! Our server Chelsea explained that they had a dedicated fryer for the chips and could make a version of the burger completely gluten free. The bun was yummy and the meat was perfectly cooked. We moved home to NZ from the UK and miss our local pub atmosphere, they had Première league football highlights playing and our booth felt very cosy away from the Wellington winter weather. I had been here in the past and it was OK but this recent experience has me impressed. With so few options in this part of the CBD I'll be thinking of it for my next "long lunch"

A stunning way to celebrate a friend's birthday. Food and service were amazing, and a coeliac in our group was well catered for with most things on the menu easily adapted. They have a separate gf fryer. We had the small upstairs dining room to ourselves for our group of 13. Every dish at the table was delicious.
