🫶🏻 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!

Kendall Lattin

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!

The food was beautiful, the injera bread was awesome and the staff so kind. Nice to have a whole vegan menu and pretty much everything was gluten free. Will definitely be back!

Vuk Sekicki

Gluten free, onion garlic free, vegan, basically any variety of whole food plant based meal. No added nasty stuff. Feels great while and after eating. My favorite Welly place to eat!

Marc Torrey

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!

Jonathon Hagger

Beautifully cooked fish and chips. The team did a fantastic job given the huge number of customers. Gluten free options are very handy.

Alex Pannekoek

We had our wedding reception here and it went amazingly. Their venue coordinators are excellent and covered everything perfectly. Such an easy venue to book for events. The sliders were delicious and they clearly marked the gluten free options for our guests. The rear room (venue room) has great sound and lighting setups which can easily be adjusted as we liked. We will likely hire out again for future events.

Abi Brook-Miller

It was delightful. Thanks so much for the excellent service. Food was great, Gluten free options were mean and the kids were welcomed with smiles. That doesn't always happen!

Matt Clarke

Nice staff. Excellent food with great gluten-free food. Going back there definitely..

Pilates Plus NZ

We had a fantastic brekkie here and highly recommend this wonderful spot. Great menu with several coeliac-friendly options. The staff are friendly, professional and attentive to detail. I had the hot smoked salmon eggs Benedict and loved the GF bread used as the base. I only like super-hard poached eggs and these guys cooked them perfectly. The coffee (Havana) is great and the room has a funky and relaxed vibe, with a great outlook over Lyall Bay beach and the airport. You can watch planes and ferries come and go while you relax! We got a GF lemon and blueberry cheesecake to take away for later - absolutely delicious. We will be back next time we’re in Wellington!

Jessica Durham

Yummy vegan food with lots of gluten free options

The Legitimate Reviewer

The best gluten free and vegan cheese pizzas that we have ever had! The drinks were a great compliment to the entire menu! We could not get over how delicious the food was! If you're looking for a pizza night then you can go past here! Great atmosphere inside with a nice outdoor area with 2 large outdoor heaters to keep you warm in the cold

We had a wonderful meal at Damascus on a Saturday evening. The restaurant was almost entirely full at 5:30 and we can understand why. I’m a coeliac who can’t have dairy so it’s not always easy to find places where I can eat and have choices. Damascus’ staff were friendly, the kitchen staff were absolutely awesome! We had a selection of small dishes and a large one. The food was beautifully presented, so incredibly tasty and came in a steady flow. We had a wonderful evening, thank you so much!

taylor dawson

Quite a few gluten free options, and the staff were great! They were very knowledgeable about cross contamination too. I had the cookie, Whittaker slice, and it was amazing 🤩

Margaret Crisp

Never been here before and I will certainly make this my Otaki café of choice. Amazing choice for gluten free folk, & eaters of all food! Outside eating was my favourite under the shade of the trees. Staff were attentive, delicious food was soon at our table.

anne callaghan

Has a lot of gluten free,dairy free food and great coffee

For a colleagues farewell we had a group of 12 on a Wednesday evening from 6pm. They accommodated us with two booth type tables and it was very comfortable. One diner is coeliac and when the order had a gluten item, staff didn't make a fuss when it was sent back politely. So that's really nice. Service was friendly and efficient, clearing our table quickly and checking for drink or food orders often. It wasn't too busy, nor too loud and the atmosphere was cosy. Paying at the end was simple and efficient, they operate their cashier system well. All told for a large group dining experience I thought it was successful and staff did a great job. Thanks for a great night team.

Burger Wisconsin in Paraparaumu is hansdown the best takeaway food joint I have ever been to. Me and my family went for a road trip to Paraparaumu today and decided we would stop here for lunch straight of the bat as a young teen boy with a dairy allergy, I was treated with a friendly atmosphere with highly respectfull, kind, empathetic and understanding stuff. I was allowed to create my own burger that wasn't specifically on the menu that was gluten and dairy free, with staff double checking. The food was more than amazing and well worth the price, which may seem a little bit steap at first but let me tell you, for ingredients that are handmade right at the shop, dietary inclusivity and understanding and outstandingly tasty burgers it is well worth it. The only downside is the space of the restaurant being a little small and cramped which meant we had to do takeaway but that didn't bother us. It is safe to say I will be recommending burger wisconsin to my family and will definitely be returning to burger wisconsin when i return to Paraparaumu next.

Daniel Fisher

Nice setting. Gluten free and Dairy free options available.

Jesse Drabble

Such a great staple of Wellington. Good coffee and some solid gluten free options. The staff are wonderful 🥰

Kelly Gray

Just enjoy being here, good menu. Only suggestion would be to add more gluten free and dairy free options

Sharon Simpkin

Great coffee. Gluten free cheese scones!!! Interesting cabinet food alongside the menu.

jaimie jamieson

Very nice food, quick service for how busy it was. Only downfall is they don’t really have any gluten free options so I opted for the omelette which was super filling and delicious! Dressing on the salad was also very tasty. Would definitely eat here again 😊

Megan Ross

One of the only places we trust and can go to as coeliacs. There are options and the staff are very understanding and helpful.

Ady Ward

Such an amazing place to eat. As someone who is gluten free and vegetarian finding places to eat with good food can be very challenging, but these guys even had options! Great service, fun decor and great food. Highly recommend

Rebecca Riley

Good coffee, best food. Always impressed by how many gluten-free & vegan options are available. If it's cake you're after, I recommend a visit on Thursday or Sunday. Possibly my imagination but the cakes seem even better than usual!

Oberzocker 511

Cozy little coffee off Statehighway 1 shortly after Wellington. The coffee shares the same driveway than the plantshop. Has plenty of parking, Gluten-free options.Tasty food and coffee, friendly staff and fast service. Certainly worth the detour and worth it, reasonable prices too. Cheers

Matteo Zambanini

The food is delicious! Everything can be gluten free. Also the staff is super friendly. Tim is great!

Kelly Gray

Love this place. Team are awesome. Only reason not 5 stars, music is a bit too loud. They understand why gluten free is so important. So totally coeliac friendly

Hannah Mcmurchie

Unfortunately, not a good experience today for lunch. The service was slow and full of errors. We were brought the wrong food, and then incorrectly served a gluten free version on a meal. Three of us at the table and all three were served sperately with large lags between dishes coming out. My meal did not arrive in time to eat there and I had to take it take away at 2.45. Sadly won't be returning 😞

Rew Clausen

What a great find. They catered superbly for our Gluten free and Dairy free requirements, with a platter for 3 of us, over 10 different dishes, and every one of them a winner. Amazing food! With a very generous informative wine tasting as well, had to take a few home with me ;-)

Otinel Meszaros

I had the big cook-up. It was great. I was hungry and it hit the spot. My wife is gluten, dairy, nut, egg free. She ordered the coconut salad and said it was great too. Nice view as well

Casey Bowden

A member of our group was coeliac and appreciated the range of gluten free options. We couldn't tell that there were gluten free options before we went to order and it would have been nice if they were better indicated. Staff friendly. Appreciated the variety of local art on display as we recognized one of the artists.

Amy Jefferies

Amazing service today- such a nice lady Catered to all our dietary needs (vegan, gluten free, allergic to garlic and onion) Definitely recommend going for high tea- delicious array of food and a good amount too. Will be going back!

Dianne Haswell

Lovely coffee and Gluten Free Friand. Good service with a smile 😊

Veronica OGrady

Positive - the menu offered gluten free options and appreciated being able to eat safely as I am a celiac. Negative - for a beautiful Wellington day with women’s expo across at TSB and a cruise ship docked, the level of staffing was not right. Service was slow, with a rushed and harassed customer experience. Had to wait to be served, seated, order taken and food to be delivered. Even asking where our food was difficult because the server clearly thought everyone else waiting meant we shouldn’t query. She said she would go check but we never saw her again. For a simple order of two bowls of fried and cheesy bread and eggs on gf toast, it shouldn’t be a 30 min wait. Negative - our food eventually came out lukewarm. So it had been cooked but sitting somewhere waiting for a server to bring out. The chips looked amazing but barely warm. My eggs on gf toast was terrible. The gf toast was as hard as a rock and no butter on it. I feel ripped off that such a simple dish was served below average and not worth the money I spent on it. The outdoor seating area was messy with uncleared dishes and food waste on the ground. It wasn’t a welcoming place to eat and I’d be hesitant to take my family there again.

Jen Stephens

Love this place! And best of all pretty much all their pizzas can be made gluten free!

Karen Balshaw

Great place. Very good gluten-free food.

Jack D
