This modern, clean-lined cafe focuses on healthy dishes for breakfast and lunch using ingredients that are organic and antibiotic free. The honey oat pancakes (made from chickpea flour), keto biscuits and gravy (made from almond and coconut flour and pea protein ‘meat’) and grass-fed beef burgers show how it’s done. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options abound.
