Wild Oats - Carterton

Popped in here for some lunch and I LOVE burgers. Saw they had 'The Carterton Burger ' on the menu so thought I 'd give it a go.Not expecting much from this cafe but WHOAH!What came out was one of the bigger burgers I 've had!It was delicious. Place was cool and staff were great.

On a recent roadtrip we stopped here for a quick coffee and a bite to eat. Im so happy i picked the savoury muffin from the cabinet! Cutting into the muffin and finding a dollop of cream cheese in the centre was such a delight that we stopped there again on the way back.

Brilliant little cafe not an extensive menu but great cabinet food to make up for it. I had the salmon frittata and it was delicious! The spinach Benedict was also very good, although the eggs a little too runny. Highly recommend the vege muffin it tastes incredible and has a cheesy centre. Also I couldn't fault the friendly service

I've been here many times to just buy cake and the last time I had a meal here was prior to Zomato being available, so I thought it time for a review. The first time I went here more than 6 years ago, the cakes were amazing. Now the variety is not the same and they can be a bit under whelming (especially the black forest gateaux which is filled with too much solid mock cream).  Today I had the salmon eggs benny tea; hubby had the big breakfast he hates mushrooms and tomatoes so I inherited those. The food is obviously from fresh Wairarapa produce (as pictured). Enjoyable but not outstanding. The lovely lady behind the counter offered me a large teapot and a single price so it was great not having to ask for extra hot water.  It is still probably the best cafe in Carterton.

Other review must have been a very bad day! Local Cafe for me and never been disappointed. Fresh food. Awesome cook! Always good for a bacon and egg breakfast. Food is great and a big selection. Can't fault. Try the vegetarian muffins, not a vegetarian but they are beautiful heated up!
