Delicious all vegan

Everything is vegan. We had the special of the day with a creamy lemon sauce and salad. They also carry the owner's various cookbooks with easy to follow instructions. We selected #7 that features vegan cheeses (and lots more) and another with 30 minute meal plans. Quiet indoor seating and very friendly staff.

Pros: Nutritious vegan fast food, Many options and daily specials, Vegan cookbooks by the owner and pre-packaged food

Nice!

I liked the food, it was yummy, the houmous is amazing!
I think it is a little bit pricy for the size but that's probably it's in the middle of the city and you get a lot of different vegetables!

Nice, consistent, cheap

Great spot that always has something nice. The mains change regularly, but not drastically, the staff are great, and everything is yum. My only complaint is that they only do takeaway containers, even for dining in.

Pros: Yum

Cons: Only takeaway containers

Great but not accessible

Would give 5 stars if there was an accessible entrance somewhere. I use a wheelchair and am thankfully ambulatory so I was able to get out and my partner brought my chair up the stairs for me but others aren't able to do the same. Food was flavourful and filling and didn't leave me feeling slow and lethargic like most places. Prices were very reasonable for the quality of the food and staff were very friendly and the atmosphere was lovely. I also really like the section where they had food items like TVP for sale. I've never seen Himalayan Black Salt for sale in a cafe before and I wish I'd bought some. I'll definitely check back next time I'm in Auckland and I hope one day there will be an easier way to get in. In the meantime will still recommend to all of my abled friends.

Pros: High quality food, Great variety, Reasonable prices

Cons: No ramp

Good

I liked the food but it was a bit salty and not as good as I expected. The place itself isn't very inviting and also not super accessible to people with strollers or wheelchairs as there are only stairs here.

All the salads, all the time!

A fantastic range of salads and some hot selections. Very hard to choose and everything we had was extremely tasty.

Fantastic lunch options

This is a sensational purpose-built eatery. The hot food is hot, the salads are cold, the prices are reasonable, and everything I tried was delicious and healthy to boot! I really appreciated having ingredients cards for every food option; even in a vegan venue, I prefer to know what I'm eating. Lastly, the value for money here is awesome. My massive lunch, as in the photo, was only $18.50! I reckon it was over 1 kilogram of healthy and tasty vegan food. Unbeatable!

Pros: Fresh and tasty, Quick, Amazing value

Not just a salad bar

Went to get a quick lunch and had their filo pie which was delicious. They have a hot dish which changes and then a huge selection of salads which are not just dressed mixed leaves - there was a roasted potato salad and a few with tofu in when I went. You’ll definitely find something you like.

Pros: All vegan, Changing menu and lots of options

Affordable lunch

Perfect if looking for multiple cold salad options but there was only the one hot option by 2pm. The tofu based alternative to a meat ball was still just about warm. Ordered this with one side salad and a bit of hummus. Tasted great for the price. Also enjoyed a carrot slice afterwards.

For environmental reasons, would have preferred to use a washable plate and cutlery when eating in rather than using compostable single use boxes.

The perfect lunch spot

Revive is a bit of an institution in Auckland. I’ve been visiting for years and have a couple of their cookbooks. Always a great range of hot and cold options with a generous dollop of hummus.

Delicious.

Great range and always changing and super good value! Also if your a student you get a discount. Will say though that when ordering online. It can be hard to imagine what the dish will actually be like. I got things that I thought sounded like what I wanted but in reality, it was very different to what I imagined. But still delicious and filling.

Healthy heaven

Been there a few times for early/later lunch, it is a cornicopia of yummy salads, 2 "hot pots" and a savory "special" option of fancy names that change regularly, desert slices (not too sweet), smoothies and hot drinks (ex. coffee). Every time I enjoyed it. Can check the day's menu on website. #Veganuary

Pros: All vegan, all healthy, All "plastic" cutlery and trays composted, Friendly staff

Good food Could be alot better

Good food could be alot better with nice people and ambience and it is missing here. For what is offered the price is too high and some of the staff (manager maybe??) were impatient and rude
They waste alot unnecessarily and use alot of plastic in their packaging...

Updated from previous review on 2021-05-18

Pros: Vegan , Reasonable price , Seating

Cons: Stingy staff, Same menu too often... ie burrito lasagna , Excess waste in packaging and throw out container

Healthy and yummy 🤤

I had never tried it before and I fell in love.
I had potato salad and a noodle salad, both delicious but the pumpkin risotto with mushroom sauce was by far the best ❤️

Great place for lunch

Good range of hot food and salads, chilled vibes and lovely staff. They also do a deal on Frooze/Yumba snack balls which you can get three mixed packs for $5!
