Pure Food Kitchen

I first tried Pure Food Kitchen at the Food Show last year and it was amazing. Paleo pies? YES! Crazy right? The staff here are amazing also full of information and always seem to be pushing the boundaries when it comes to creating new paleo and raw foods. If you’re on a paleo diet/​lifestyle this is your dream location. Think of it as the fast food of the paleo world. Go to this place now. Get in your car and experience good quick food!

What an awesome concept, and just off the main drag in Grey Lynn I can’t help but think this place will be really popular over the summer. The staff are extremely attentive and willing to explain their products and ingredients. Everything is gluten-​free, grain-​free, refined sugar free and there are dairy free and Paleo options — total score. They have a very tempting smoothie menu and I think the items are all well priced. They do hot pies in the warmer, a cold cabinet with pulled pork savouries topped with sweet potato, wraps, quiche and all manner of sweet treats including Anzac biscuits. They also do granola parfait a and sell their house granola by the bag.
I wasn’t hungry but got the lemon tart and a mushroom feta quiche to go. Pastry on the quiche was the best grain-​free I’ve ever tasted and the filling was generous, this was after a few more hours in my fridge at home. The lemon tart which I gifted to my sweet toothed fiend was a bit of a miss. I tried some and the texture and flavour was a bit off, maybe too much coconut flour? Regardless, I’m definitely coming back with an appetite next time!
The storefront is quite unassuming and there are only two small tables on outside and a few seats inside. Their takeaway containers are ecofriendly and service is second to none.

Amazing selection of paleo sweet treats (the chocolate ‘lamingtons’ are incredible!), pies, wraps, smoothies, primal coffee and other takeaway goods. Tasty food never FELT so good.
