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)
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!
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
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
"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.
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.
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!
A busy school holiday night but we were happy to take a high table in the bar area. Staff were friendly and kept checking we were okay. Handled our gluten free request well. Food was (mostly) good quality and well prepared, drinks were nice and desserts were tasty. A pleasant night out.
My wife and I booked in for dinner last night - New Years Eve. The food was fantastic, so moreish, and the range of food on the menu was perfect for us, including plenty of gluten free options.
The service was next level and we were looked after very well. The humour was a definite bonus! We'll definitely be back :)
Visiting from out of town , came here with my brother for a bite to eat. The service was spectacular and efficient , all the staff are so friendly and such a good vibe. The coffee and fries I got were superb. Got a gluten free brownie to take away which was so good I ate it all in one sitting. Talk about a great experience. 1000000% chance I will be back next time for more delish food. Thank you.

Wow super tasty, amazingly accomodating… I had a booking for 12 people some needed gluten free options, there were plenty to choose from. The staff here are so fantastic with advice and the service was great…did I mention super tasty too⁉️
I ordered a gluten free wrap and I always tell the staff their to change their gloves which they do but then they attend other customers and come back to my order and they have been touching wheat and they dont change their gloves they even know that but they ignore it and think I haven’t noticed. If someone orders something gluten free it’s for a reason. I have celiac disease where i cannot have any wheat or gluten or anything cross contaminated and I even let the staff know about it, but seem to not care at all. It’s happened to me multiple times and I’m not happy about it
Not much in the way of gluten free food except the usual friands, orange almond cake & caramel slice. I had a very overcooked date scone that was doughy & hard to eat. My friend had the savory scone & found it hard to eat. Coffee was ok
Don’t get me wrong my sub was good. But my partner is coeliac , she ordered a GF wrap and they didn’t change their gloves, and they were doing others orders at the same time, she pulled her wrap out and it’s all stuck to the paper, ripped the paper. If your gluten free/coeliac don’t come to this place. If you’re just keen on a feed it’s not bad, but pretty disappointing .
Beautiful meal tonight at Golden Rice. Menu caters for a wide variety of people, including vegetarians, vegans and coeliacs. Great service, meals were fast and a generous portion. Would definitley recommend, especially for groups with anyone with a dietary restriction

We had an amazing meal, delicious flavors. Highly recommend the squid and crispy potatoes..gluten free options and vegetarian. Great service, attentive but not intrusive. 😁👍
Wow! Absolutely fantastic food! I had the Panang coconut curry which was just perfect. My better half was likewise very happy with the fried chicken.
The staff are very knowledgeable about dietary matters (I am coeliac) and the waiter double-checked with the chef before confirming my order. Unfortunately, there was a small glitch when my panacotta (which was very, very good) came with a wheat-based tuille on top, however the error was very efficiently corrected.
The only small negative is that the coffee was pretty average, though to be fair, it's not a coffee shop.
Will I go back? Most definitely!

Simply Organic is a gem! As a fervent advocate of a healthy lifestyle and a connoisseur of quality foods, I've found my personal shopping haven in this little organic supermarket.
Upon entering, you're greeted by a wave of fresh, natural aromas. The range of organic products is impressive, from fresh fruits and vegetables to gluten-free alternatives and delightful snacks. Their support for local producers adds an extra layer of satisfaction to the shopping experience.
The staff is not only knowledgeable but incredibly friendly. They not only know every product in the store but are also eager to provide tips and share their extensive knowledge of healthy eating. This creates a warm and inviting atmosphere.
Simply Organic successfully bridges sustainability, health, and enjoyment. It's not just a store; it's a place that fosters community and promotes awareness of environmentally friendly consumption. I look forward to every shopping trip, and I highly recommend Simply Organic to anyone seeking high-quality organic products. It's simply a perfect blend!
Very well looked after when over 20 of us turned up; no fuss, no problem, just easy and accommodating. Thank you. A selection of dishes had by our group, with a number sharing pizzas that were of a good size. The gluten free one was a quality base but was unfortunately underdone. Great service, efficient and friendly
We enjoyed the dinner buffet, good value, really nice duck, squid, plenty of choices and gluten free options as well. Good service, very attentive, We will return.
Besides the desserts being amazing, the highlight of this place has got to be how accommodating they were of one of our group's gluten allergy. Highly recommended this place for anyone with dietary requirements but still want to get the platter or the high tea.
The platter is recommended for two, but the four of us were perfectly happy with it. Looking forward to the high tea later on.
Disappointed that the big choice of savoury gluten free selection has reduced to one! Will give it another try as it was my favourite and I used the take many groups of people there for lunch.
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.

Their YUMMY roasts including gravy are Gluten Free - except for their potatoes, which you can sub-out!
You get your money’s worth here - and their roasts are SCRUMPTIOUS!!
Thanks Grange Road Roasts! :)
Please be aware their Matcha Lattes are a blend, not pure Matcha powder. Contains gluten, milk, soy and egg.
I had an almond milk matcha latte today to then spend the rest of morning tea violently vomiting in their bathroom. Only to receive a “oh sorry” after I asked on my way out if they accidentally gave me dairy milk instead of almond milk further leading to showing me the “Matcha Blend” ingredients list
Very busy Japanese restaurant for a Monday night. Great selection of fresh ingredients, and the staff knew about gluten free ingredients and options. My wife got a katsui chicken on rice while I got a gf surimi poke bowl. Both looked amazing. The poke bowl tasted amazing.
