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!

First time visiting this Cafe was impressed with their choice of cabinet food, especially the variety of gluten free choices. We got the lemon and caper fish and the corn fritters. Both came with a well dressed salad (the dressing reminded me of a South Indian condiment - Coconut Chutney) The fritters, 3 of them, well seasoned and made fresh to order instead of being pre made and frozen, came with a relish I think. The fish was nice, although it tasted frozen, the accompanying sauce was good. Would definitely go back .

What a find! Our local Air Bnb recommended "that Polish place." Polish? They just serve soup? With Cabbage? Boy, was I wrong. We tested it for a snack at lunchtime, had a reuben sandwich, my friend had a gluten free option. There is no cabbage soup on the menu that I could see! Wowo it was sooooo good, then we saw the array of home vodkas, OK so, it would be rude not to try them, it was then we booked for dinner, we had to try the vodka matches to the dinner menu and I was glad I booked, the place was packed out. We both had the steak with crispy potatoes and veges that were included! Yep veges we're included and not an added side on for additional cost. I always have my steak medium rare and by golly it was! The best, really the best steak cooked to perfection and a decent size, piled high with covering if jus. Goodness we had to take a walk around the lovely Plimmerton bay. You have to go there. A bottle of their amazing vodka are only $55! The food is just the highest quality for a wee bistro in Plimmerton, hope to visit again soon.

I love the gluten free options of this place! One of the best gluten free banana breads I‘ve had and I also absolutely love the gluten-free mushroom bun and the toastie! :) probably my favourite place in all of Wellington to grab a quick gluten free lunch or breakfast on the go!

Birthday dinner - had to wait over 1 hour for food, the place was not very busy at all. The people who sat behind us, arrived well after us but their food came out at the same time as us. Entree came out with main. Steak wasn’t easy to cut through, Salmon overcooked - had stipulated for it not to be overcooked. Not a lot of gluten free dessert options. We had spent hundreds that night as there were 9 of us. Unfortunately we will not be going back.

We had lunch here with three kids. I had asked earlier about gluten free options for our celiac kid and we were confident. When the food arrived, the waitress checked again and realised that the toast was not the GF bread. She apologised, took it back in and came back with a complete new meal. Contamination is taken seriously and we were happy! Thank you for catering for celiac and being so attentive! The food was AWESOME!
