Review The Raw Kitchen - Auckland Central

Sze Flett
Started my day in Auckland with a healthy Berry Bircher which was light and delicious. The service was prompt and friendly. There were no other customers whilst I was there which is a shame because this little cafe is a hidden gem!

As a starving vegan, I was wandering like a cat in heat through the streets of Auckland City. I was unsure - as a fly in the ocean - were to settle to fulfil the desire for a raw and meal. After (metaphorically of course) flitting through a sky full of processed foods and animal corpses I landed on the unprocessed, vegan wonderland that is.. raw kitchen. The well-lit, open-plan cafe drew me in like a moth to a lamp - and as I was greeted by the lovely and attractive Billie - I lingered like an ant stuck in a bug trap. I was desperately caught in the web of deciding what to eat, unable to wriggle from my cocoon of uncertainty when the celestial woman behind the counter triggered my metamorphosis of decision. She delicately suggested that I should sample a humble breakfast cup - a sustaining meal that she told me was crafted from the most sustainable plant-based nutriments available in the bustling hub that is CWD. After the first simple bite (that was so beautifully presented I could not hold back my pining mouth for a second from receiving it) my feet simply began to levitate from the ground as I reached a new pinnacle of raw vegan ecstasy. I like my food as I like my intimate experiences… raw. If you like to indulge in the same pleasures as me - I invite you, please no not miss this. Thank you raw vegan kitchen!

This place is totally Vegan and serves delicious food! Lot of options available from food, snacks and desserts. The quantity they serve is quite filling and also reasonable price. The food tastes really good. I know these aren't our normal food that we would eat everyday but they definitely made it scrumptious which we would crave for it. Items like these are a must have for everyday meal. I have posted a few photos that I have taken from the eatery. The place is pretty and compact. You feel very calm and contended. Good stuff!👌🏼👍🏼

I really wanted to share this to rave about the lovely lady who worked on her own at midday today and was friendly, helpful and efficient. Loved my smoothie too :)

Throughly enjoyed my iced americano & matcha slice. I cant wait to try more of their slices & food, definitely hits the sweet tooth without feeling so guilty or sick from a sugar overload. I will be back for my coffee and sweet fix!

Saw you guys in the Fine Food Show in ASB showground. Maggie Xu is very friendly and patient. Very impressive. Are your dessert all keto? We will find a date to check out your cafe.

One of my favourite places to pick up a sweet treat that isn’t processed and full of refined sugar. Their raw slices and cakes are divine and raw salads are really tasty. The photo is of the white chocolate and berry cake. The only thing that doesn’t quite hit the mark are their smoothies. They’re not very thick and not cold enough. Highly recommend this place for a healthy takeaway, or sit in the sun at their tables out front (there’s also mezzanine seating, but I haven’t ventured up there).

Super cozy, friendly atmosphere restaurant. A lot of options of vegan desserts and cakes. Delicious coffee and teas. Friendly and welcoming staff. One of my favourites in Auckland for coffee and dessert. Thanks! :)

I love The Raw Kitchen's cakes. I have tried multiple and so far all of them were great. Flavor is nice and smooth, not too strong and not too sweet like other cakes. I like that they fit a variety of diet requirements and it makes it easy to order for groups of people with different diets. The shelf options are great for a healthy dessert. The upstairs of the store is very nicely decorated and cozy.

Would have liked to eat everything! Looked so good 🤭 cosy place! And the breakfast overnight oats were good!
Catherine Decker
Very friendly staff and a lot of delicious and healthy food! I was eating one of the salads for 8.50$ and the garlic hummus was sooo good! This is a very cozy and beautiful place to be ❤️

Friendly staff, clean and beautiful light filled little cafe. The raw Black Forest cake was smooth, rich and beautifully offset by freeze dried raspberries. Can’t wait to try more from here

Beautiful space, wonderful food, friendly service and healthy brunch spot for girls - what more can you hope for?! We ordered the soups that came with a yummy little sunflower seed loaf, a cacao smoothie bowl that was very refreshing as well as a range of delicious little slices. A very happy birthday indeed!

Yvette Newman
Aboslutely loved my time here, but I asked for a keto slice to take back to my boyfriend and got given the wrong slice!! It probably wouldn't matter so much if he wasn't on a strict diet, but still pretty gutting to get given something completely different to what you ask for, especially when dietary needs are involved :(
Jan Maul
Wow. Wasn't sure what to expect but that wrap was exceptionally tasty. Aso enjoyed my Tropicana smoothie with a big hit of turmeric and ginger. Great place to grab a bite of super delicious healthy raw food. 🖒🖒🖒🖒

Amazing morning tea at The Raw Kitchen. We tried the Snickers and the Double Chocolate cakes. Soooo good
CARO CONSUMES
The Mexican bowl salad was tantalising in the first bite but all of it was the same pretty acidic taste which makes it a lot harder to eat the 5th bite in. The coconut avocado mousse did nothing for the theme of the bowl. The bounty bar was incredibly greasy and left a print on my desk before I managed to consume it. I think the ratio and size of chocolate to coconut was misguided.

These chia seed puddings need to change. I keep forgetting they taste awful. It was so sour, and the consistency was terrible and gluggy. I forced myself to finish it because it costs so much money but my gagging reflexes were in full force. Even gave some to my coworker and he gagged. Gave a two star because the raw slices are really nice there especially the caramel. But please please change your chia seed puddings.

I only ever order the classic açai bowl $12.5 which I think for Auckland area is well worth it! Every time I get it it’s always consistent, filled to the top and enough toppings! <br/><br/>I love açai bowls and it’s hard finding one worth the price and GOOD! <br/><br/>Yum!

Definitely not as good as little bird unbakery. I got two slices for $16 which is super pricy - but semi understandable due to the ingredients. One slice (mocha) was super yummy but quite rich and sweet, you’d need to share this. The second was a peanut butter slice which had no taste at all and wasn’t sweet at all. So a bit hit and miss. <br/><br/>The place was cute and decorated nicely. And not too busy when I went just before closing.

Food: 5/5. I tried the hazelnut-chocolate raw slice, absolutely delicious! The right amount of sweetness, so divine! Can’t wait to try more! <br/><br/>Atmosphere: 5/5. A hidden gem upstairs! There’s a vine covered spiral staircase that leads to a little lift style room where you can enjoy your food on the comfy couch! <br/><br/>Service: 5/5. Friendly staff who were so nice in helping me decide which slice to try :) <br/><br/>Highly recommend this place! ❤️
Dini
One of my absolute favourite weekday breakfast places! Staff are always amazing, food is great. Got cacao is very much recommended, as well as the breakfast deluxe cup!<br/>Food: 5/5<br/>Service: 5/5<br/>Ambience: 5/5
Paige Saies
Terrible experience. First of all asking for a mocha and received a very watery flat white.. then asked for a peppermint slice then I was given a mocha hazelnut slice! 😡 disappointing as had high hopes.

Celine Putter

A hidden gem in the city with delicious and satisfying healthy food as well as beverage. I tried their chocolate vanilla breakfast cup and their blueberry pie smoothie. Both quite satisfying. Would definitely come back to try their cakes next time. I heard they were just as delicious as they looked.
Eleanor.kerslake
Delicious food, I will definitely be going back there soon to try more of their food and drinks! The atmosphere was also really nice on a hot day.
Georgia Vossen
This place is one of a kind, the food is stunning. So healthy! Draws me in with the cabinet food and the cosy little shop. <br/>Menu is spot on, everything is extremely healthy, all vegetarian, no dairy, no gluten, vegan. Everything I've had tastes delicious, couldn't fault it. Try the salted caramel smoothie, you won't believe it's all whole healthy ingredients.. but it is! <br/> A big selection of sweet treats too that again, all healthy. Variety of salads in the cabinet you can takeaway, her juices are amazing too. Acai bowl, amazing. Toast of the day.. EVERYTHING. <br/>Very impressive, love coming here.
