Reality Bites Cafe Rangiora

Hidden away from the main street, local healthy food options and daily specials, friendly service.

Tasty if limited cabinet food and good coffee. Hidden away in an arcade it's a good spot to get away from the norwester.

Popped in for a quick bite and coffee during the day, place was very neat and tidy. Good central location, food and coffee was great and was made in a timely manner!

Terrible service from behind the counter when I was ordering. Little knowledge on what was gluten free. I was given blatent attitude that they couldn't be bothered with my questons. Orderd a gluten free kids platter, got fries, blue and red m & ms, apple (that was turning brown) and some raisins - what is healthy about this??? Was completely shocked. To top it off my hubby found a two pieces of plastic in his rissoto ball. When I approached the person behind the counter about this - they couldn't have cared less - no remibursement of meal or a new one offered etc.
I followed up with a phone call to the owners after our experience - they seemed genuinely shocked with my feedback and said that they would follow up and promised to ring me back. I never recieved a phone call back and no suggestions of remibursemening us on our food.
I was completey shocked with service and the type of food that was served. There is a sign outside stating paleo, glute free etc, I found little of this food available.
Wouldn't go back.

Tasty food. Comfort. I advise everyone
