Staff are certainly sensitive to any allergies or intolerances with which customers may be afflicted. The breakfasr menu offers millet and quinoa porridges in addition to oatmeal (it contains gluten you see), and the range of breads (wholemeal, spelt, rye, six-grain, yeast-free and gluten free) makes you wonder why white bread’s allowed on the premises.

Given the number of ingredients the menu doesn’t contain, the cooking is first class. Most of the crowd of local office workers drawn here for lunch ordered the vibrant selection of healthy salads. We opted for hot dishes of ricotta and spinach-filled crepes with tomato sauce and a light cheese and nut loaf that was as high in taste as it was in fibre.

Drinks, including a ‘C’ smoothie of strawberries, banana, orange juice and (the superfood du jour) goji berries, and a slice of spice scented chocolate tart with vanilla ice cream finished the meal on a natural high. We left in deep contemplation of how inadequate lunch at a sandwich chain tastes and feels in comparison.

"happy customer"
"I had a wonderful experience here yesterday. So far it is still a new jewel waiting to be discovered. Great food, amazing prices and its almost a shame to let too many people know about it as it was so calming. I chose to have a gluten free lasagne with a selection of salads while my friend had a good old fashion pizza. There is a take away bar and you can also buy snack and even a few gifts for your friends."
Pros: friendly staff * amazing value * good portions
Cons: couldnt eat more * *

Dear Greens & Beans,
I've been a few times now to your fine establishment and each time it
has been delicious! It is now on our office's highly recommended places
to go for lunch. With many veggies in our office it is an ideal choice.
It is also a huge hit with the non-veggies (like me) who just love
home-cooked, quality food. You will be seeing more of us for sure!
Keep up the great food and lovely staff.
