Absolutely delicious, top quality produce and generous portion sizes. One of the best plant based restaurants I’ve eaten at.

Fave place to eat, food is always amazing, staff are so so lovely. Such a nice vibe, from someone who has bad anxiety getting food out of home, i feel so comfortable going in knowing it’s going to be an awesome experience everytime. Being Gluten Free aswell they have heaps of delish options and cater so well to any other allergies, i love being able to come here knowing the staff can tell me what ingredients are in things so i don’t have to worry. Couldn’t recommend more, this place is fab!

Best food and the service is amazing. Chocolate brownie is super tasty just like the beers on tap.

As at 28th Jan 22 - provides 'contactless' outdoor eating only due Covid Traffic Light restrictions on hospitality businesses choosing not to observe staff masking & My Vaccine Pass requirements. Posting on the front door was confusing, saying measures are level 2 compliant even though the level system has been superceded by the Traffic Light system.

What a beautiful place! A jungle grew in neat little pots forming a fairy-like canopy across the ceiling. The food came quickly, takeaways only for now, which we enjoyed at the funky outdoor seating areas. The place was super busy and it's obvious why, the food is amazing! ALL VEGAN, GF options too!

One of the best plant based restaurants I've ever been too. All the dished pictured were outstanding. I'm a carnivore and didn't miss the meat. If you're in nelson and a vegan, this is a must-do.
Slightly odd covid one way system inside. Lovely courtyard. Accepts dogs outside.
Please me and follow. X

The BEST VEGAN meal I’ve ever had, I am a foodie that’s just moved from Wellington and have worked in hospitality for 15 years! And I can say the food here is incredible! Super tasty, big portions, over all just delicious! The team were warm and welcoming.happy that they are all inclusive and able to still operate under traffic light system. It’s nice to eat somewhere where they accept you for who you are.

If you’re looking for somewhere to see smiley faces and eat delicious food 10000% recommend coming here! Go show some support and leave feeling full!

Waited in line for a long time just to find out they can't sell alcohol (even though they advertise that they do) and we can't sit inside to eat. Not a good experience

This place is fantastic! Best vegan food in Nelson and they are doing a fantastic job making all customers feel welcome during the pandemic. The staff are amazing, the food is great and the vibes are even better. Can’t say enough good things about this place!

OMG the food here is AMAZING! We’ve been once before and we couldn’t wait to come back. When we came to Nelson last week on a public holiday they were closed and we were pretty distraught but we came back through on our way back up to Auckland and it was totally worth the wait. I had the Buddha bowl which was absolutely to die for. Things dreams are made of. My partner had the Jungle salad which had feta in it that we both swore could not possibly be vegan as it tasted to much like normal dairy feta. Only thing we didn’t like was the size of the wooden forks. They were so small and the food was sooo good they couldn’t shovel enough in at a time so next time we will bring our own reusables love your work guys! Can’t wait to come back next time we visit the South Island.

I'm a part time vegetarian and this place creates really tasty vegan food. Happy feel to this venue.

Its nice to see a vegan place with a great concept, but sadly, poorly executed. The food and service is just average.

Vegan is not my food of choice but this was soooo tasty! I also loved the decor and ambience, it has a real euro feel it. Recommeded for vegans and non-vegans alike.

This place is amazing. Indoor and outdoor seating, there is a patio space out back. You don't even realize it's vegan. Greta bar as well!
