Tasty

Not a huge range of vegan food but of what there is, it’s gorgeous. Vegan burger and the peanut butter and jelly muffins are a big favourite

Updated from previous review on 2024-05-09

Pros: Great coffee

Incredible food

The food was amazing, atmosphere was also great. Nothing negative to say.

I ordered the tofu bao and greens. Both were incredible!! Wish I wasn't leaving Queenstown already, otherwise I'd certainly be back. Had a nice cocktail (miss Moneypenny) during happy hour as well: 20% off

Pros: Amazing food, Atmosphere, Good cocktails

Just too much

I went there during a time when they were only serving small plates. It has a reasonable vegan selection and it is clearly indicated.
They use real food and the description of dishes great.
The falafels were undercooked (and drowned in oil). Good Greens were okay. Hasselback beetroot was swimming in a pool of oil and the accompanying white sauce was overly garlicky. The after-taste (of one day old garlic) motivated me to submit the post.
I would have mentioned it to the staff, but they were just too cool for school to care.

Pros: vegan options, clearly indicated , use real food ingredients

Cons: too much oil!!, too much garlic, undercooked falafels

One of the best in QT

Plenty of vegan options, good plates to share and dishes we hadn't had elsewhere like hasselback beetroot. Full bar service, good play list. Defn. worth a visit. Prices ok for Queenstown.

Veggies!

We tried the hassleback beets, roasted cauliflower, tofu bao and greens. All were fresh. Loved the various sauces and use of nuts. DJ played fun music.

Pros: Texture of dishes, Layers of sauces

Amazing Flavor!

New menu this week started for dinner. Amazing flavors and unique options. Had two of the share plates, the greens (which I was expecting a salad but it was green vegetables) and the hassleback beets. Wow. Both were amazing.

Delicious and fresh options

Really enjoyed the vibe and options. Priced a bit high but noticed that is everything in Queenstown compared to the rest of the country. Highly recommend stopping by and trying them out.

loved it!

Cute cafe with lots of plants everywhere, very clearly labelled menu with several options. Loved the vegan butty but personally not a huge fan of the pancakes. Had a very nice coconut milk hot chocolate too!

Pros: great menu , yum food + drinks , cute cafe

Cons: didn’t love the buckwheat pancakes

So delicious we went twice!

Our hotel recommended this place, and we were so glad they did! Hubby loved his non-vegan food and I especially loved my vegan gluten free options! First visit was the lemon blueberry pancakes and a hot chocolate for me. Second visit was some sides: broccoli, side Cobb salad, and smashed potatoes. Everything was delicious and we were disappointed they are closed for the remainder of our visit. Definitely check this place out!

Pros: Multiple vegan options , Fun ambience , Helpful and friendly staff

Cons: Food brought out separately, eating together hard, Dinner dishes were warm, not hot, Limited vegan dinner mains, mostly sides

Great vibes, even better food

Many, clearly labelled vegan options.

I got the lemon and blueberry pancakes and they were awesome. The lemon curd paired with the compote was to dieee for.

My partner got the vegan butty and was “the food highlight of [his] trip!”

Pros: Many vegan options, Different options to other places, Great vibes

Vegan Butty is top tier

The interior has a cool, neon-tinged vibe to it with lots of plants everywhere. Just a very pleasant place to eat. And luckily, the food is great. Vegan Butty was a unique and flavorful brunch surprise. Wouldn't mind going back to try the pancakes.

Vegan bacon baps!!

I've been twice for Brunch and twice for dinner. The Brunch is deffo better, although I had the pancakes and didn't think they were great, the vegan bacon bap was so good! My friend had the bacon one and said the vegan one was better!!
It's the flakes of coconut bacon which taste so good

Loved

I got the eggplant with sticky rice - super flavorful. My non vegan friend got the vegan sandwich and she LOVED it. The white chocolate cranberry cookie was delish.

Plantbased Pancake Paradise

A trip to Queenstown is not complete without a stop off at Yonder for their gluten free vegan pancakes. Pictured are the vegan lemon and blueberry pancakes and the corn fritters. There are other vegan options to including the Vegan Butty, Avo on Toast and Jalapeno and Corn Fritters. They do lovely coffee here with coconut milk as well. They are also on First Table if you want a cheeky 50% discount!

Pros: Central location, Lovely cafe interior, Becomes a club at night on the weekends

Cons: Busy so you should book a table

Don’t wander past

This place was heaving at peak Saturday morning g brunch hour and it’s not hard to see why with their great menu with heaps of vegan options including pancakes, corn fritters and a vegan butty which is what I tried - uses coconut bacon, lots of aioli, kumara, caramelised onion, mushrooms and greens mmmm with a hefty side of fries

Hipster place, lots of options

Kind of a fancy place, obviously attracts lots of people. Many vegan options. I popped in for breakfast, the pancakes were nice, and huge portion! I did not like the staff too much though, their friendliness seemed fake. Beware, the menu and prices on their Facebook page are not updated.

Pros: Many vegan options , Lots of outdoor seating

Cons: Music was too loud for me, Staff seemed arrogant , Fb page not updated

Only a bar

We went yesterday at 6pm and tried to order from the big menu they had outside which said dinner from 5pm and they said the kitchen was closed. Couldn’t see any menus inside so unsure if they still have a kitchen.

Don’t miss this one

Went for breakfast. A beautiful old building is the da Eade of a brilliant modern and funky eatery. Indoor and outdoor seating. There is a large open seating area at the back where the World Cup was screening. Eclectic mix of customers. Staff are super friendly and the food and coffee are delicious. Blueberry pancakes and the vegan butty were a highlight

Indoor/ outdoor

Assuming you get here early enough for lunch/dinner (or booked!) they have some great dining spots, both indoor and out. They also have some nice vegan options here - the miso eggplant was really good, and the service was really good.

Pros: Tasty vegan food, Good service

Cons: A bit pricey, but it is Queenstown.
