👍👍 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 she... People often mention cake, healthy, friendly, vegan,

The upstairs of the store is very nicely decorated and cozy.

    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).

    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.

    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

    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! :)

    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!

    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!

    Delicious Mexican wrap and Hormone Balancing Latte - with a bit of everything: turmeric, raw cacao, cordyceps, maca, coconut sugar, chai spices

    Searched the Web for somewhere healthy, craving a salad. This place popped up and their menu looked fabulous so we popped in. Unfortunately they had only uninspiring cabinet food, (no salads except a tiny container (cup sized) of green leaves). Looked like sweets in the cabinet. Not sure what the deal is but won't be back.

    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!

    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 ❤️

    I have been coming here for many years for guilt free treats, the staff are always on point and it’s always so easy to get car parking right outside. James Ashwin Kakapo Business Sales

    I ordered a keto cake online for Saturday pickup. Despite receiving confirmations, the staff seemed unaware of my order and there wasn’t a cake ready. After waiting and incurring parking charges, I finally received the cake. Not the best experience overall.

    Thought every item in this eatery is raw vegan but the sandwich is not. The bread is baked.

    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!

    I ordered this strawberry dream birthday cake and it was a nightmare. not sure what other cake tastes like but I almost throw up on this one. Cost me 200 dollars makes it not only the worst cake I’ve ever tasted, but also the most expensive cake I have tasted. What a memorable birthday for mom But fell free to try out other cakes, just not this one. Ps: It smells fermented, I'm not sure if it has gone bad or not, but this cake was only shipped yesterday. UPDATE—————————————————— They contacted me and willing to refund the cake, it was differently gone bad due to a poorly sealed box and maybe a leaked ice-gel pack, it originally should’ve tastes much better than this. Awesome after sale service though.
