🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 5/5 – A Hidden Gem with Something for Everyone! Absolutely loved this little café! One of the standout features is the huge range of options, seriously, there’s something for everyone. They even have separate gluten-free and plant-based menus, which made choosing so much easier and inclusive for all diets. Now, let’s talk food, the chipotle chat potatoes were an easy 10/10. Perfectly cooked, crispy on the outside, soft inside, and packed with just the right amount of smoky heat. Honestly couldn’t have been better. I’d go back just for those. I also tried the Ginger Ninja juice, fresh, zingy (not too zingy), and super refreshing. Exactly what you want in a juice: balanced, punchy, and not too sweet. Service was super quick, the staff were friendly and welcoming, and the whole place had a relaxed, easygoing vibe. The location is convenient, and prices are more than fair for the quality and variety on offer. Highly recommend checking this place out whether you’re after a quick bite, a hearty plant-based meal, or just want some standout potatoes. Will definitely be back!

Purchased a glutenfree burger as a takeaway and they overdid it severely where it didn't taste like much and was hard

The food is on point. The rohti is made fresh. This burrito made from heaven is so tasty. Don’t get gluten free unless you’re on a diet. Missing out on the rohti was my mistake. After trying a bite of my husbands rhoti roll, I knew my gluten free order was a mistake. Try the beef rhoti roll. It’s soooo fire.

Root is the only vegan restaurant in town, even there are gluten free options, serving locals, tourists and districts. You have our community strong support, it is not easy for a small business and they have to think twice to take time off. Please show your love. I do not want another business close down.
