If I owned a cafe on the whangaparoa I'd be worried. I've been there three times now and consistency is essential to get me back more than twice. This place just seems to get better. That's why I cAn be bothered to write this review.

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.

Their focus seems to be on natural health, so the foods usually contain interesting grains, seeds, pulses, and fresh fillings. They make a huge cabinet of delicious ricepaper rolls, filled with all sorts of goodies, like beetroot, carrot, orange, corn, chicken, sprouts (all in one roll), and they only cost $3!!! They also have giant omellete rolls filled with chicken fried rice for $6. So much better value that sushi. But I hope that they don't go out of business for charging so little. You can also get a massive range of fresh juices, including wheatgrass shots.

Have visited Urban Fuel three times in the last week and have been so happy with the food and service each time. My usual order is a prawn rice paper roll, with a small or medium salad. I love getting a little of all of the salads on offer, the black rice, kale salad, and broccoli salad are so tasty. Also their juices and smoothies are delicious!
