Earthmother Cafe
The Earthmother Cafe is set in the garden at the back of their shop property. Parents are able to relax beneath the shade of pigeonwood and tibouchina trees, while the kids divide their time either playing in the sand box, watching the fish in the small pond or playing with toys on picnic blankets and cushions.
There are a wide range of breakfasts and lunches available. While some of the dishes include cheese, this can easily substituted with other ingredients. Such an example is their Mild Mexican: black beans, marinated with a touch of chilli and served with herbs, greens and cherry tomatoes. All their smoothies are dairy-free.
Open breakfast and lunch-time only.

They have a lot of nice vegan options. The coffee is exceptional and the raw chocolate tart - to die for! The staff's not half bad either. ;) A favourite spot! I go here nearly every day for lunch. It is a wonderful place, the food is amazing and very healthy, also very reasonably priced. The staff are friendly and always very helpful to explain the various different items to non-vegetarians.
Fresh Earth Food Store
The chef loves to create the best quality meals from scratch, because he knows that food in its purest form is the best tasting and most nutritious food available. Only natural and organic ingredients are used.
And this food is readily available at this vegetarian restaurant, which offers a full a la carte menu, weekday buffets and an all-you-can-eat "Table of Abundance" Saturday buffet. Open M-F 08-17:00 & Sat 08-16:00 hrs.

I absolutely love this place! I have been 4 times already and I will be going back until I have tried everything vegan on the menu. The pizza with vegan cheese is out of this world and the veggie shepherds pie is wonderful. My only complaint is that the menu is rather limited and I'm sorry that they have to compromise and serve dairy cheese and honey.
The vegan pizza is fabulous. I especially like the base. The service and ambiance gets thumbs up too.
Health for Life
Health for Life is a health store/vegan vegetarian restaurant serving a wide variety of vegan/vegetarian foods, including main courses, health drinks and desserts. Their portions are filling and they offer a wide variety to choose from on their menu. The kitchen is clean and well organised so that the standard of food is great.
