The food was absolutely delicious, and catered so well for my husband who is coeliac. The staff were very friendly and the restaurant had a great atmosphere.
Delicious food and chai; ended up going twice while I was in town because the gluten free cornbread with the eggs benedict was stuck in my mind. Skip the pork belly and go with the bacon though, a much better pairing.
Our favorite cafe for delicious gluten-free options and super yummy food. It is only cabinet food, but this means it's ready quickly, good if you have limited time. Great coffee and nice, friendly service. Don't go late as they close promptly and sometimes run out of the gf options.
Came here for lunch on a whim and was not disappointed! Delicious crepe options with option to swap any flavors for a gluten free galette base. We all had the crepes and all were fantastic. Great coffee too. Staff was extremely friendly. Highly recommend!
What a fantastic place. Friendly staff, great coffee, delicious bagels (and gluten free options!), and eye catching beauty and art everywhere! I could hardly leave. A must see in Nelson.
We celebrated a family occasion and knew we would be a happy party so we booked the small private room which was perfect for a small group. Julian the waiter was exceptional.. his service to us was knowledgeable on the food and wine he served. Very professional and laughed along with party. He did very well to manage a happy party. We had Trust the Chef which was not short of amazing, fresh well presented food and Julian did well catering for our gluten free dairy free and peanut allergies
Love this cafe, friendly helpful staff and outdoor seating under the trees!!! Iced chocolate and gluten free toast with spreads. Mmmmm appreciations for the work you do...at sweet as
One of the guests has dairy intolerance, the staff were knowledgeable about the food that can be made dairy free and they do have "allergies menu" available on request which clearly indicates which items are dairy free, vegan, gluten free, etc.
The food was lovely, the staff were friendly.
They do have nice outside booths which worked really well on warm summer evening.
(I had "kiwi hot" chicken jalfrazi and then gulab jamun for dessert.)

I love this Cafe/Bulk Food shop for a quick drink or getting the essentials on the way home. The shop is kept super tidy and with a variety of bulk goods it caters a wide range of diets. My favourite is the Bounty Gluten and Dairy Free Slice because it's not too sweet.
I would also recommend the Beetroot Latte (Pictured below) or the Iced Chocolates- they have dairy free hot chocolate powder! Don't forget to check out the GF bread mix options and variety of flours for all your baking needs.
Requested gluten free cheesy fries with bacon. It was delicious! The counter staff explained the separate frier & that it would be 20 mins; but it was well worth the wait. Also had 6 different slices & biscuits in a separate cabinet. Very friendly & knowledgeable service.
Superb food, great location! Although the menu looks uninviting in regard to dietary accommodations, they are extremely willing to accommodate for any. Perfect for someone who is severely celiac. The server was friendly, and coffee was yummy. Will be returning when I next visit Nelson 🙂
I enjoyed a wonderful evening dinner on the deck with perfect weather and great company the Friday before last. The wait staff were very friendly, polite and some of us had particular requests in relation to the menu. One person was gluten free. I am not a coleslaw fan so the young man said he would check with the chef as to an alternative salad. I said some green leaves and tomato would suffice but was given a Greek salad to go with my steak and chips which exceeded my expectations.
Only one gripe. I ordered the steak, and the menu stated it was a Rib Eye Fillet. I have been around for quite some time and the meat I received was probably a sirloin or rump. The shape or taste was nothing life a rib eye fillet and it required a steak knife to eat it. It was cooked to perfection but not what the menu stated. Otherwise a very pleasant evening in the most perfect setting in Nelson.
Gorgeous little cafe with heaps of gluten-free options! Had the gf/df banoffee waffles and they were so good. Love a filter coffee as well. Lots of GF options in the cabinet as well so had a savory loaf and sweet muffin on my second visit. Would definitely come back here any time we’re in Nelson ☺️
We stumbled upon this cafe and went in for brunch. We were greeted immediately with a smile and good morning - great start. The excellent service continued from there followed up with lovely food. I needed gluten free options and there were many. We will definitely return next time we are in Nelson!!
This is a great little cafe with friendly staff and good range of snack food options including those for gluten free. Probably not ideal for groups(except outdoors on nice day) but great for your catch up with a couple friends or getting a bit of work done(bring your hotspot device) but overall can't recommend highly enough.
