One Earth Cafe

A little gem in Willoughby dedicated to all things green. Well, maybe not all things, but definitely food. Everything from the coffee to the eggs is organic and be it the food or the way it is prepared, I will say it does taste better. Open for breakfast and lunch, this café does both things well. For breakfast my pick is the BLAT and for lunch any of their toasted sandwiches are delicious. The service here is OK… I wish I could say it is better but I just find it a little inconsistent. The owners, who run the day to day, don’t seem overly enthused to be there, but hey, I am!

I’ve been wanting to come to this little Café for some time. It’s name pulled me — I’m of the eco warrior/​we are one type model human being and appreciate like-​minded/​hearted people. This Café didn’t disappoint. It has the hippy vibe but in a suburban context. Meaning the clientele is middle class and it’s located on a busy road in Willoughby yet the atmosphere is chilled, the food is organic and hand made and the owners seem refreshingly real.
The hand knitted scarves from Peru, acoustic and Celtic music playing the background, the vintage clothes and shoes corner down the back, the Indian rugs, the wooden floor boards, the globe hanging from the centre of the room, the random treasures I imagine collected on travels make this a Café a traveler would feel at home in. Some would recognize the hippy flavour but to me it tastes like home. The chicken, avocado, sun dried tomato and mayo on gluten free bread was as full and gourmet as I’d make at home — rough and beefy. Comforting.
Coffee is fairtrade and organic. Loads of gluten free options available.
Soooo good.
