Whiritoa General Store and Cafe

I had an amazing burger and chips here. The owner Browyn was incredibly accommodating of me being coeliac. Straight away she said she would scrub down the grill and that she would bake the chips in the oven and keep them seperate from my family’s standard fish n chips order. She checked all the condiments to make sure they were all gf. If you are ceoliac, this is an amazing place for you because of the care effort put in to making sure the meal is not contaminated, plus the food is amazing too. Usually I’m left out of these kinds of meals, but with Browyn’s cooking not only did I get a delicious meal but my stomach never felt better 😊

Had a fabulous experience at the Whiritoa Store and cafe. Grant banter with the ladies and delicious food. Cabinet had gluten free cakes for desert. We stopped here for lunch, away from the crowds of Whangamatā - I had a che burger (cheese) and it was delicious. Great views from the front deck too.
