Friendly service, tasty food

The veggie stack was tasty and not too much food.
Peanut butter slice was good too.
Non-vegan companions enjoyed their meals too.

Pros: Friendly service , Tasty food

Nice!

Veggie stack and (special) falafel burger, both quite nice!
Bonus; raspberry and coconut slice and peanut butter slice were both very yummy!

Veggie stack was fantastic

Thoroughly enjoyed breakfast here. The veggie stack was totally satisfying. Sat outside listening to a guy sing and play some nice acoustic guitar songs. Now off to luge down a mountain.

Pros: Delicious , Filling, Good vibes

Cons: A little pricey

Ok spot for breakfast

My vegan stack was ok, though mostly consisted of a potato fritata. Few vegan (raw) sweets in the cabinet. Really good coffee. Quick service.

Pros: Opens early, Central location , Quick service

Good food but limited options

Veggie stack was delicious along with the peanut butter slice.
Smoothie was a miss, rather watery and lacking flavour.
Minimal vegan options on the menu

Limited options

Cute little cafe.
The veggie stack is delicious, but that is the only vegan option on the menu.
Of the cabinet food: I've been in there several times and asked about their salads; there has not been a vegan choice any of the times I've asked. Always a couple of sweet treats.
I would have given a higher rating, if there were more options to choose from.
It is 2022/2023 and they should do better.

Delicious vegan stack breakfast 😋

Very tasty meal, big potato hash with vegan cheese and avo, spinach. I added grilled tomatoes for extra 5.

Nice selection of vegan chai tea and chocolate powders to take home.

Krazy 4 Kumara fries

I’ve spent more time dreaming about these kumara fries than I have about my wedding to my boyfriend Logan. They are crispy and delicious.

Worth a try

The cake was way too sugary for me (coming from Europe), but it's a nice place and the coffee was good (but not mind blowing). nice staff!

Pros: nice staff

Only a few choices for vegan breakfast...

...but that seems common in Rotorua. We had the vegan Budda bowl and vegan vege stack with a bliss ball. All exceeded our expectations! We'd order both dishes again without hesitation.

WiFi works fine.

Pros: Clearly labeled options

Cons: Only a few vegan options

Lovely brekkie

The veggie stack was very filling. Nice flavours, very satisfying, all in all a lovely eat. Only fault we can find is that one came with portobello as promised and the other with button mushrooms.

Pros: Trubadur outside :)

Not much choice for vegans

The menu has very limited vegan options and there are only bliss balls in the cabinet if you are wanting a vegan treat. That being said, those bliss balls were really good. Can get busy, which means service tends to be quite slow... it took ages for them just to bring me some tea. Nice atmosphere with some interesting things on the walls. Could not access their 'Free WiFi'

Pros: Nice bliss balls, Good atmosphere

Cons: Slow service, Limited vegan options, No free WiFi, despite sign advertising it

Pros: Great Service, Nice athmosphere, Free wifi

Cons: A little expensive
