Highly recommend this Cafe. The staff were very friendly and very helpful. Food was amazing, many choices of gluten free and keto. I will definitely be back again.
I almost never go into town, but I will more regularly to go to this cafe. I'm not on a plant-based diet, but that doesn't matter - their selection is huge, healthy and delicious, service excellent. (Also tons of gluten free options)
Have been here before and enjoyed the experience so thought we’d give it another go.
Smashed Avocado Bagel (with Salmon as an add-on) was generous and the salmon portion very generous. Bagel was very tough to cut with a knife though but maybe being gluten free had something to do with that? Very tasty though.
We also had the Poke Bowl which was underwhelming. Not the traditional bowl at all, as it was on a plate. No sign of coriander in the rice, no kewpie mayo, no crispy shallots and no sweet chilli (all were advertised on the menu). Pretty disappointing for $32.90 and our two meals and bottled juice made it an $80 lunch.
A beautiful, cozy cafe! We had breakfast in the café and absolutely loved it. There are many vegan and vegetarian options. I had the granola and can recommend it to everyone. The taste is simply indescribably delicious! Plus fresh vegan yogurt and almond milk. Also fruit paste and fresh fruit included. There are plant-based milk alternatives to choose from. The food was really nice and carefully prepared. Therefore it tastes and looks great! Since we were so excited, we took our lunch to go with us: the vegan panini and a “vegan and gluten free peanut chocolate bar/cake”. I still dream about both of them now because they were so delicious! The panini had a delicious vegetable patty. The chocolate cake/bar was so creamy and delicious! If I had the opportunity, I would definitely be a regular customer of the café! Therefore a recommendation from the bottom of my heart. Thank you for this great breakfast experience!
Devine! Am so pleased i discovered this place, o much so its going to now be a regular visit each time I'm here.
Highly recommend the La Forestiere if you're a mushroom lover. The flavours are sensational. I was having trouble deciding what to have and the wonderful server recommended if I'm a mushroom lover to try it.... she was right, I can understand why it's her favourite.
Great option for Gluten free dining, including a selection of French sweet treats in the cabinet. Yum.
Grindz is amazing, always high quality food and great coffee. One of our favorite spots to go. I personally struggle with dietary restrictions, and I have had some of the best gluten free and dairy free snacks at Grindz! My all time favorite being the banana chocolate chip cake, with coconut yogurt on the side when it's on the menu! Absolutely wonderful owner who is always a joy to talk to and she is so grateful. Keep doing what you guys do, you rock!
Nice place. They have a couple of vegan gluten free things like mushrooms and fries, plus they have a vegan smoothie. Very fast service when we were there on a weekday for late lunch.
Came in on a quiet saterday, lovely staff and great service. Best gluten free toasted sandwich I've had. 5 stars will probably be back next time I'm in town
I ordered a Gluten free burger(allergy) and received a normal bun.
Rang and was offered a replacement or vouchers and opted for a replacement.
The replacement had aioli which our original order did not have, and the service by Lex was rude and she tried to charge for the replacement
A really good find on our walk. Lovely food, good coffee and excellent staff. The Gluten-free bread was the best and homemade Thank you we will be back
Plenty of Gluten free cupboard options which i really appreciate as most cafes only offer if at all gluten free brownies from the cupboard. Decent coffee and friendly service will be back :)
Hubby said it was the best chicken stack he has ever eaten and I loved the gluten free salmon hash. Great coffee and lovely relaxing spot to get off the road.
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.
Nice brunch spot. Staff member said big breakfast could be gluten free and then served it with hash browns that weren’t gluten free. Shouldn’t be hard to get gluten free hash browns or just not suggest that as a gluten free meal.
Came on 18th November 2023 for a birthday celebration, excellent service from initial phone booking to everything on the night, food was fantastic highly recommend the platters but for me the Vegetarian Pizza was absolutely delicious we thoroughly enjoyed our night here and thought it was good value for money. Great selection for our gluten free members of the group too, Thanks Fainting Goat for a great night😊
I can give 5 star for banana muffin and their gluten free snacks. So yumm. However, Staff are ridiculous. They are more interested in talking with each other than serving customers...So rude customer service
We we disappointed in the quality of the food on this visit. We had 2 hybrid combos, both came with badly burnt kumera fries. The egg on one burger was burnt and the bacon on the other burger. We also ordered a gluten free burger which was fine apart from the bread was so stale that my partner rated it the worst burger she ever had.
We frequent this store fairly regularly and have not experienced this before, so I called to see what they would say about the quality of the meal. Unfortunately I got a machine as they were too busy to take the call.
Not Impressed all, there are plenty of other options for take out, I may not go back after this as there is nothing fun about having takeout at home and it being yuck!
Really lovely staff. I have specific diet restrictions and they kindly made me a toastie on gluten free bread. Most of my group got coffee and the big sausage roll. What a great deal. The sausage roll really is big!
A must-try and fairly priced! Amazing food and large portions. Friendly service. None-allergy food options, vegan, and gluten free options.Possible to buy some great craft beers!
Lovely for a bite to eat on the way through. Cabinet food was too expensive at $15 for each item so ended up just having cheese scones. Very limited gluten free choices. Coffee was fab but had to have a long black as the non cow's milk options were all Alternative brand which makes an ikk cuppa. Friend had a cow's milk latte and liked it. Music was very loud, but vibe was cool inside.
Great service . I needed gluten free food and needed to educate the waitress that the fries were not gluten free if they were cooked in a fryer with gluten. So.if you are gluten free/coeliacs don't get their frys. But the rest of the meal was tasty and brilliant
Loved the food. Great gluten free options. Recommend the calamari! The staff were great getting all the food out at the same time for 10 people. Highly recommend 👌
We ate here for the first time & loved it! All the food was great but our favourites were the special spicy seared tuna & the rum roasted pineapple with lime coconut mousse - they were fantastic. There were not a lot of mains options for my coeliac, vegetarian partner but what she did have was carefully prepared and really nice. We will def be back.
I ordered an eggs Benedict (without bacon or mushrooms) gluten free. They came out with two pieces of (hope it was gluten free) bread because it wasn't toasted properly and had no butter on it. Two eggs just put on top with the dressing. No wilted spinach. It looked like a child had made it. With the other meal and drinks I paid just over $50. I ate it because I paid for it but won't be going back.
My daughter has been here many times raving about their "Reuben" and hash sticks, it's her ultimate favourite, the kind that puts a smile on a teenager! 😀 I now see why! Although I had the single burger & hash sticks, it was delicious & her Reuben left me wanting to come back & try it out for sure! Some menu items cater to dairy free & gluten free too (bonus)! Staff super lovely & cute place. Highly recommend 🙌💓

This Turkish place is our favourite stop when visiting Tauranga. I am allergic to gluten and they always clean the tongs and make sure the meal is made without gluten.
The food is amazing!
Also the family that own this restaurant are so lovely.
Highly recommend!!
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!
Hand down best beef burger I have ever had! Nice chargrilled taste and great sauce, Mrs is gluten free and she said the gfo was great too, will be back for sure.
Eastwood has been a favourite in thenpast(great location good coffee and gluten free options) this time coffee was below average and not much choice on food for gluten intolerant
I like this place, we have eaten here twice as a family. The only let down is they don’t offer any gluten/dairy free side with the steak. Chips are in a shared frier, so not GF. And the mash has dairy in it. Otherwise would give it a higher score :) Service is always very good with nice friendly staff.
Brilliant food, we have never been disappointed. Fresh, full of flavour and they have good knowledge of food allergies. Unfortunately no separate fryer for gluten free however they were understanding in being able to swap items out and offer replacement options. Allergies were well noted and highlighted on our order. All dishes at our table were beautifully presented and delicious!
Highly recommend the grilled salmon and prawn salad 10/10
