This absolute gem of a whole-in-the-wall is tucked just inside Elliot Stables. You wouldn't read…read moreabout but here you can get a decent sized freshly-made juice for only $7, which is pretty much unheard of in the middle of town. Plus, if you get your juice to drink-in it comes in a cool glass cup that kind of resembles a can (see pic) - similar to the cups at Chop Chop now that I think about it. I'll admit that my vitamin booster (beetroot, carrot, ginger, apple & orange) was a tad sweet for my liking but since it was only $7 I didn't really care... Definitely my new inner city juice stop - well worth a looksie!

I love Wedge! This is my favourite juice place ever!!! Davina - the energetic ball of happiness…read morebehind the counter - is so friendly and nice, i look forward to having chats with her! The Meadow is the best green juice ever, cold pressed to make sure all those amazing nutrients are kept inside the juice, but not too bitter as it's balanced out by lemon and apple. Honestly all of the juices are amazing, plus the warm lemon, ginger and honey drink is perfect for those frosty winter mornings!

does anyone else ever get cravings for ... (wait for it) ... FRESH GINGER?…read more no? maybe that's just me? anyhow, new zealand's a fine place to be a ginger-lover (i've already sampled three different varieties of micro-brewed ginger beer and, have since become an addict). tangent aside, this juice bar hits the spot. not only is it directly across from my office, they also have reasonable prices, you don't have to wait in an obnoxious 15 minute line (*cough* tank *cough*) and they use hurom slow juicers which are designed to squeeze every last nutrient out of that fruit, veggie, nourishment of choice. today i opted for a beet, apple, fresh ginger (DUH) concoction which had the perfect amount of zing to get me through tuesday afternoon. a small 3-4 veggie/fruit juice (served in a generous 16oz cup) will set you back $5.90 - which i think is pretty fair given competitor prices and the quality of the juice. plus the service is so darn friendly, you just have to return the smiles. i do wish they provided straws, though. something just feels weird about sipping a freshly squeezed juice coffee-style.

After salivating over their Instagram feed for a long while, I finally made it to Greenleaf to…read moreexperience all the goodness in real life. If you don't care about any of the detail, just know this: The Matcha Latte. Get it, sip it, savor it. Smooth and creamy and perfect and ahh, what dreams are made of. Tucked on the corner of New North and Ace place (the link to Dominion Rd), this garage-front cafe feels a bit 'off the beaten path' (but in the best way possible). The space is elegantly decorated with bright artwork & stylish cushions, with an inexplicable feeling of freshness. They make their own raw pressed juices and smoothies, with an impressive variety. From green detox through to cacao date handmade nut milk, the color of the rainbow is up for grabs. I tried the Aloha, a blend of pineapple, almond milk, cashews, tumeric and lemon. It was pretty f*cking delicious. This, alongside the Namaste bowl of spiced lentils, naan, veggies and avocado made for a super satisfying, balanced meal. They have a decent selection of raw desserts too - we split the raspberry lemon 'cheese' cake, which tasted like a healthier version of fudge - just as creamy but without a stomach ache afterward ;) No, it's not cheap, but I would say sliiiightly more reasonable with the other organic specialty spots in the neighborhood....slightly.

This is probably one of the best raw kitchen producers around the Auckland area …read more With juices from well and good and sublime cakes this is where you come if your tummy is blocking your view to your toes . I don't know what it is about the raw style cakes but I like them ! With the crunchy nutty bases and creamy cashew filling it's like eating a healthy cheesecake (imagine if that really existed ?) I had the romesco noodles and a Mexican salad both were good , a rose water as well . I'll be back to try one of their wraps .

I didn't know they closed at 4 and I showed up at 4:05 and they were kind enough to still serve me! Plenty of options. Only reason I didn't give 5 stars was because of the prices. The tasty Buddha Bowl was $15 and barely kept me full for a few hours. There are similar vegetarian salad spots with the same type of cabinet food for $8-10.

The sourdough and eggs were great as well. I personally don't like parsley garnish so I didn't enjoy that on the egg as much but everything else was fantastic. Tomatoes were really juicy. Everything just tasted super fresh and of great quality.

The coffee is Atomic beans/grind which is very acceptable! There is some cabinet food however the price tag is very hefty starting at $5 - $11 for basic banana bread, baps, slices etc. Wait time was fast, about 3 minutes & I was 3rd in the queue. There is seating inside & out, staff are friendly enough. Some music would have been great to confirm the 'cool vibes', maybe next time.

Cool little hole in the wall, serving Korean fusion. Only a few seats up front, but fun covered…read moregarden seating tucked in the back. It was just myself here on a biz trip, so could not order much. Got the chicken thigh karrage with a very tasty sauce on it that was not Korean at all. (wish I snapped a picture of the menu). Also the kimchi sampler (white, red, and cucumber) Also the grilled zucchini, which down under thay have some odd name for (I had to google it, and don't remember exactly, but was like the word parasol, but that was not it). Anyway, this too was delicious due to the sauce on and under it. Under was a combo of creamed feta and olive oil, on top was what looked like thyme leaves, which had been sauted in olive oil. However, the taste was not thyme. Sprinkeled on top was pine nuts. Very delicious none the less. I did ask the waitress what it was, but she was new snd did not know. I recommend this place
