Lots of Brekkie Options

Plenty of choice on the menu, was disappointed mushrooms are an extra $3 add on for one of the meals, just feels like it should be part of the dish already. Big Brekkie is the winner, minus the lack of shrooms. Decent size for the price and tasty. Would be nice to have a few extra “lunchier” options as they’re very meat based.

Pros: Lots of choice for brekkie / brunch, Soup of day is usually vegetarian

Cons: Would like a few “lunchier” options

Not bad

Not bad. Vegan sausage was not my taste. The vegan cake was great, so I would go back for those

Breakfast meal and donut! Excellent.

So great to find a excellent meal option. I had the vegan breakfast and a donut. The service people were nice and one in particular was very helpful to help me with options. The location is super cool, right on a small sandy area next to the boat yard. Kids played on the sand after our meal.

Pros: Delicious vegan breakfast , Amazing donut, Friendly service

Lots of Vegan Options

Love how all over their menu and in the cabinet there are vegan options and also statements made about always trying to expand their range and about veganising other menu items.

Pros: Lots of Vegan Options, A Vegan Big Breakfast!

Great options

Everyone in my family loves the nachos with guac! You would never know they're vege and can be made vegan on request (omit cheese and sour cream). Plenty of vegan options, cakes and house made fakebacon. Soy coffee on point.
I find the ambience in this cafe a bit hit and miss ..the tables are very close together and at busy times it can get unpleasantly noisy and crowded. Grab brekky early or coffee and cake after the lunch rush.

Pros: Lots of options for everyone.. omni, vegan, veggie, Good service

Cons: A little pricey, gets very crowded

Great lunch place

A great place for lunch at the southern end of the boardwalk. CHECK OPENING HOURS!
Loads of options for vegans, both cabinet and on the menu. Veganism is promoted here, although they do cater for everyone else. Vegan wine is also available, which was much appreciated.
I had the sausage and 'bacon' sandwich because I hadn't tried anything like this before. It was a big meal, but I managed it!
Lovely decor and outlook over the marina. Great staff and reasonable pricing.

Great visit for vegans and everyone!

Tucked away at the end of the coastal walkway right by ocean, this is such a great place to visit for a lovely meal with great views, decor and friendly staff. Menu offers a good selection of vegan options, the vegan big breaky was divine, and many other items can be veganised, just ask. Also a handful of vegan options in the cabinet with cakes and pastries! Offers something for everyone, definitely recommend 🌞☺️

Pros: Good vegan options, Also options in the cabinet, Great views, family friendly

Cons: Once we went the menu was closed, Luckily they had options in the cabinet

Yum and good options

Has 4-5 vegan options in the cabinet and 4-5 options on the menu and everything I tried was GOOOOOD! Were really busy and handled everything in a nice and timely manner ! Recommended !
Can’t give a 5 star as the app doesn’t allow that for a Placs that’s not fully vegan or vegetarian.

Yum!

Quite a few options on the menu and in the cabinet. Loved that the menu stated it was vegan marg on the toast too. Lots of little things showed they clearly understood being vegan. Had the vegan big brekky and it was delicious. Grabbed a berry and choc muffin for the road and it was perfect!

Pros: Lots of vegan options clearly stated, Clearly labelled vegan cabinet food, Tasty food with a great view

Cons: Was a bit expensive (holiday surcharge)

Good Cabinet options....

A nice cafe down on the New Plymouth waterfront. Vegan cabinet options are clearly labelled orange. Quite a few had already sold out in the early afternoon...it's popular here. We tried a couple of the dessert slices and a muffin for a afternoon snack . Very good. They also do a lunch / brunch menu with a couple of Vegan choices too.

~ Came back for breakfast in March '18 during Womad weekend ~ I had the vegan breakfast & it was great! Nicely prepared with generous portions & tasty flavours. Great, friendly service again. ~

One of those cafes where you can tell someone working here is a vegan....more choices and great quality. Bach have the best vegan dessert options we have found in New Plymouth...Recommended!

Pros: Quality cabinet food at good prices., Friendly & knowledgeable staff

lots of options

The Bach is a great place to go for brekkie, lunch or morning tea and there are heaps of vegan options to choose from. They are the only place I know of in NP to get vegan baked goods like sugar doughnuts and chocolate cake, yum!
Our dine in experiences have been pretty good but most times we have opted for a takeaway option we have ended up waiting 25 minutes for coffee and cake, our orders have been forgotten or mixed up or the coffee is a bit burnt but no biggie, these guys can get seriously busy at times.
Overall this place is pretty awesome, I've taken family members from out of town several times and they've loved it.

Pros: lots of delicious vegan options, sweet and savoury

Cons: this cafe is a bit more pricey than others and a b

Great service and lovely food

Visited here for brunch with my family and we were all really pleased by the kind and fast service and delicious food. Really good portion sizes as well. Mum talked to one of the owners who is also very fan and her husband is vegetarian as well. It was really nice to see a place with such good vegan options and a lovely welcoming environment by the water. I would definitely recommend a visit here.

Pros: great service , great food
