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.

I was immediately taken with Mister D when I discovered they make their own breads, preserves and doughnuts. Not only that, they make their own gluten free bread and cornbread! We loved the ambience and the coffee, would have loved to go back before leaving Napier. Wonderful service. Recommend!

Super friendly staff and great outside seating. It’s hard to find a place where you can make sure you can eat there if you are gluten-free or celiac. But the Gintrap has heaps of glutenfree options available. As we asked the friendly waitress, she told us all about the glutenfree things. Some things are also got offered to be made celiac, she just mentioned that they can’t do the fried stuff celiac cause everything is fried in the same fryer. We ended up ordering a glutenfree pizza and a glutenfree burger and both of the meals were absolutely stunning.

I stopped by for lunch and a coffee. Coffee; mocachino with coconut milk was excellent. I had the vegetarian stack with bacon. Served promptly, plenty of spinach, bacon, portobello mushrooms, a little more capsicum dressing would have been appreciated. All up though lovely. I also appreciated their knowledge of dairy & gluten free food. Well trained. Would go again.

Went there on a public holiday. No booking for lunch. 8 people. The place was busy. They offered us a place in the garden but said we would be a bit cramped around the table. I all worked out and we had a great time there. Almost all ordered the fish and chips at $32 a plate! Wow was it worth it! Everyone said it was the best fish and chips thy had in ages. Very generous portions of fish. Thy even did a gluten and dairy free plate too. No issues. Probably should have shared the plates, but everything was finished. We had a great white wine with our meal but I must admit I forgot witch one. Paid the 15% surcharge without any issues. Hope to go back again.

Had a very pleasant coffee experience here in the past. This time came with Dad for afternoon tea. I am neither gluten averse nor vegan, but their Carrot Cake offering for those that are was most excellent. Lots of that nutty carrot cake texture, and a well balanced flavour. Perhaps if the otherwise excellent icing was slightly less sweet? The Booster smoothie was top tier, and something I'd happily order again. The great taste while still containing Spinach meant I felt healthier with every delicious sip. My Father gave the veggie quiche an impressive 8/10, which is extreme praise from a man who can complain about anything. When pushed to elaborate, he stated "it was very nice". High praise indeed. We'll be back.

A duty manager took our meal order and did not fill us with confidence that he understood our insistance that one meal had to be gluten free. Very small meals Staff passed plates in front of us to others at our table After asking if we wanted coffee or desserts and us replying can we have five minutes, they put a chemical through the coffee machine. So we were unable to have coffee. I don't imagine we will eat here again.

Great local Chinese takeaway just outside of CPD in Napier. Open on New Years day which was a bonus when most of the other takeaways in Napier were closed. Upon ordering Combination Fried Rice as Gluten Free, the owner / chef came out to double check, amd advise that the beef and soy sauce contained gluten, so he was going to leave those two items out. It was awesome to find a takeaway where the owner knows his ingredients and his customers allergies, so we will definately be back here on our next trip to the bay.

We had made a booking based on the fact they offered Gluten Free pizza bases and offered vegan cheese. Upon arrival they informed us they had run out of gluten free bases and when we asked if they offered any other meals suitable for a GF, DF, EF child they said they would check with the kitchen and get back to us, which they never did. We ended up walking out and finding a better establishment.
