Great little place! They are very happy to adapt things to suit other allergies, and it's so nice to find a place that is 100% gluten free. Our go to for whenever we are in town or have people visiting. The lolly slice is also amazing and tastes like a 90s childhood 😂

Chicken Caeser Burger - delish! Fried Chicken - delish! The teenager LOVED the sweet French toast - something he has missed since diagnosis! One of the best long blacks I've had in a long time. It's so refreshing to not have to worry about cross-contamination.

Delightful cafe! It’s always great to be able to find a coeliac friendly cafe with loads of options. Being completely gluten free was fantastic! We ordered the Fried Friday (fried chicken and chips), cheese toastie and the savoury French toast. Everyone was very happy with their meals. It was so good to find good gf fried chicken too! Went back the next day to pick up some cabinet items - the cheese scones and carrot cake muffins. Again, both were top quality and super yum. The staff were lovely, and the venue is cute and clean with roadside parking. Will be a regular whenever we are in Hamilton!

Fried chicken is amazing. Scones are to die for. A place with only GF food!! No risk of contamination and don’t need to ask a hundred questions to be super sure. So needed for coeliacs 💕

Centrally located 100% GF cafe with menu items and variety of cabinet items. Great coffee and relaxed vibe. My mum chose the brócoli salad and a scroll both of which she enjoyed (she’s not celiac or gf). I had the egg, sausage and hash meal again and it was delicious. Going to go back and try the fried chicken and take home a scroll. Yum.

Lovely service & soo cool having a cafe that caters so beautifully to coeliacs! I tried the fried chicken today but have previously eaten very yummy slices here. Almost 100% GF (except for some gluten bread buns which are prepared in a separate area). I will be back again & again :)

Predominantly gf cafe. Everything on the menu can be gf (you can choose gluten bun for your burger or toasted sandwich if you want). All gf items are prepared safely for coeliacs - eg separate toaster, fryer, sandwich grill etc.

The entire cabinet is gf - slices, scones, muffins etc.

I really enjoyed my food. My husband had a normal gluten bun with his burger and also said it was great.
