Simple lunch in a very nice setting

We discovered this place by accident on a Sunday morning, so came back for lunch. The setting was beautiful: outdoors among native plants, with eco-consciousness. The blackboard menu clearly outlined vegan and gluten-free options, even notifying that these would be cooked in the same equipment as other items. Pricing is a $7 base of bread and cheese plus additional for each extra item, and no penalty for gluten-free bread or vegan cheese. Impressive. We ordered three different combos involving mushrooms, tomatoes, spinach, baked beans and pickles. Jaffles have become fashionable in Melbourne, but they are pretty no-frills, so if you're flogging them as cafe food, they better be good. These were good - very well put together and perfectly cooked, with the vegan cheese nicely melted, not still solid - but no better than you might make them at home. Still, the atmosphere made it a very enjoyable lunch experience and I'd certainly come back.

Pros: Very nice setting among native plants, Clearly described vegan and GF options
