Great place for a meal. We had a large party here for celebration. They set up a long table for us. The food was delicious and lots of gluten free options. I love the atmosphere of the wooden tables large doors and even log fire. Staff are always lovely. Lots of space and room for children families.

Always a good stopoff here for decent coffee and brunch or lunch. We had the beef nachos for our gluten free daighter, french toast and bacon for the other hungry monster and the veggie stack. If you haven't eaten for days and all you can think about is a big plate to fill the tummy, don't get the veggie stack - it's only just big enough for a wafer thin super model. Order up the big breakfast for big eaters and hungry teenage boys. There's plenty on offer from the cabinet. Coffees are good enough, but not the bestin Tauranga. The girls are always friendly and most times plenty of parking in the Bethlehem Palmers carpark - after you've doused your body in as much caffeine as you can drink, pick up some pot plants and get into the garden to work off some of those calories!

"Wow, I think this is my new favourite eatery", I told my family, while still browsing the menu. This is the kind of food I love and it was excellent. I absolutely loved the dinner here and left so full I was uncomfortably content. It's a great atmosphere and the waiting staff were friendly and professional. Seems to have plenty of gluten free options available for Coeliacs which pleased my wife and food came reasonably quickly too. I will definitely be back to try other dishes on the menu.

Popular place and we were nearly put off by all the tables being reserved in advance. But fortunately we went in and it was great. They have a few vegan and gluten free options including a salad, cauliflower bites, a vegan lasagne, and fries plus others that could be made vegan/gf. Worth a visit but be aware the coffee is expensive at $9 for a large decaf flat white.

This little pocket of a place was amazing so, after buying my daughter and I some food, my wife suddenly rang me and asked for a coffee and some gluten-free food if they had any well indeed they did, I ask for one item then lovely woman serving asked me if she was a coeliac, and I said yes she in that instant proceeded to put on gloves and continued with the order, I gotta say that was pretty cool, and let's not bypass the fact that food is amazing and the people are too.

Went here last night as we were in Wharf Street having a drink and noticed a new place. The food was so tasty. Got the lamb and will be back to try more. Really knowledgeable of gluten free options and took extra care to prepare it separately which took a little longer but totally fine with that. Highly recommend.

The food was really good, I was very excited to have my gluten free needs met but I was very disappointed to be charged $4.90 extra on top of $21.00 for one slice of bread. Especially when the prices where already high enough to cover my single slice of gluten free bread and more

Ended up there Saturday night after a roady from Auckland for a short trip away. Great bar for a good priced meal, combined with good Live music and friendly staff. The Gluten-free options are good aswell and they have an great selection of everything really, Gin, wine, beer and other spirits. Worth giving them a go. Great value for money. Cheers from the guy in the swimshorts and Jandals πŸ™Œ Really enjoyed my stay that night.
