Description
The Larder is café’s with soul with quirky décor & warm ambience, a home away from home. Come often and be welcomed into the family.
Our food & coffee is made with love, simplicity & provenance – every ingredient matters! It’s clean, healthy & honest food, meaning with integrity, sourcing ingredients from small passionate producers & people we know, as unprocessed as possible. Our coffee is ethically sourced in Africa from Bean There which supports & uplift communities. Every cup of coffee you buy from us supports the farms & families directly.
Our menu’s are small & fresh. We work with nature, seasonally as best we can, fresh & free range. Our veggies are mainly sourced from the Philippi community & urban farmers, buying organic with intent. Our meats are free range, chicken from Elgin Free Range, bacon & charcuterie from Flying Pig, if it isn’t free range it’s not allowed in the door. Our flour is stoneground & our cakes are baked in house. Our chefs have perfected a few delicious gluten & sugar free treats as well as offer plenty of gluten free savouries.
We cook from scratch on site even our mayo & pesto is homemade. Our eggs are never pre-cooked, made to order, as well as our our of this world hollandaise! Shock horror! We have small teams looking after our guests, not crowds of staff, so yes “service” is a tad slower than the Spur but it is so worth it! Feed your body & warm the soul.
We have a NO straw policy & our packaging is biodegradable, mostly from Ecopak. We know our children enjoy sipping from a straw, but we are teaching our own to go without by showing them the scary impact it has on our precious marine life. They are now spreading the word willingly to other restaurants, telling people to stop buying straws because they too want to save penguins & turtles who are being harmed by ingesting them. We sleep better at night knowing we are doing our bit for our beautiful planet, every little bit counts!
