Premium Coffee, Fresh Cafe Food and Friendly Service — Two Handy Dunedin Locations Open 7 Days, From 7.30am

31 Dec 2023

## Premium coffee, fresh food and service worth returning for

Restaurant Dunedin

Since 2003, The Good Oil Cafe has given Dunedin a reliable answer to that daily question: where to eat in Dunedin? The formula is refreshingly simple — fresh, seasonal ingredients, generous portions and the best espresso, served exactly the way each customer likes it. Diners can settle in with an all-day menu of à la carte and cabinet food, so there's no need to watch the clock to catch a decent breakfast or a proper cafe lunch. Dunedin locals rate the salmon salad, the smoked chicken pasta and an eggs benedict that out-of-towners describe as a safe bet, while the teatime treats — gooey caramel slices, luscious brownies and gluten-free friands — make a mid-afternoon stop feel like a small reward. Ask anyone about the cinnamon swirls and expect a strong opinion; they have achieved cult-like status for good reason.

Cafe Services Dunedin

Because one good thing is rarely enough, The Good Oil Cafe serves customers from two convenient spots: 314 George Street in the heart of the city, and Nichol's Garden Centre at 51 Teviot Street in South Dunedin. Both are open seven days from 7.30am to 4.00pm, which suits early starters, shift workers, shoppers and anyone who needs a proper coffee before the day begins — arriving a little ahead of the morning rush is a smart move. Both cafés are also popular for cafe lunch in Dunedin among local workers, residents and visitors, whether that's a quick takeaway, a relaxed catch-up or an informal business meeting over healthier salad-based options. With plenty of gluten free food in Dunedin on offer too, groups with different dietary needs can eat together without anyone missing out.
