Hell yes, free coffee!<br />
If you could shed the expectations,<br />
socially and personally, that are put on<br />
you, what would you become if you<br />
returned to yourself, to wholeness? If<br />
you could be authentically you, creating<br />
a purposeful, larger than life existence<br />
based on questions like:<br />
Why do you wake up in the morning?<br />
What change do you want to see in this<br />
world? What world do you want to leave<br />
to your kids, and to their kids? What will<br />
be your legacy?<br />
The founders of Bonobo, Annelies<br />
Basten & Deane Simmonds, went through<br />
a journey of transformation as they set<br />
a goal to create a more meaningful life,<br />
a life in line with their values and for<br />
the betterment of our planet, and on a<br />
smaller scale, our community.<br />
Bonobo is at the centre of what<br />
unearthed when they were inspired and<br />
challenged by the big questions above.<br />
Born from the aim to spread a ripple of<br />
kindness, and causing the least amount of<br />
harm, was a hospitality venture that sets<br />
out to create a happy work environment,<br />
a community of like-minded people,<br />
deep and positive connections, and an<br />
introduction to living solely off plants.<br />
Following from that, is the creation<br />
of a regenerative garden just down the<br />
road, that will provide the café with<br />
spray-free produce grown in healthy soil<br />
created from their own coffee grounds<br />
and scraps, closing the loop, decreasing<br />
the carbon footprint and recreating a<br />
connection with the land, improving<br />
communal and individual health.<br />
As soon as you step into Bonobo’s<br />
grounds, you feel there is a different<br />
energy to the place; you cannot put your<br />
finger on it, but it feels lighter, brighter<br />
and positive. You can tell a lot of love and<br />
care goes into the running of this busy<br />
little hub, as goes into everything they<br />
serve.<br />
If you have never<br />
had an oat latte, this<br />
is the place to give it<br />
a go. Annelies says<br />
right from the start,<br />
they implemented a<br />
‘try before you buy’<br />
kind of policy: if you<br />
do not have a positive<br />
coffee experience, you<br />
do not have to pay<br />
for it! Furthermore,<br />
if you have never had<br />
tofu in your life, they<br />
are happy to give<br />
you a sample of this<br />
versatile, delicious plant protein.<br />
At Bonobo, there is cabinet food and<br />
a menu packed with your favourite<br />
breakfast and lunch options. There is<br />
something for everyone, including a kids<br />
menu which functions as a colouring in<br />
artwork to keep them happy, too.<br />
Each and every dish served looks like a<br />
work of art, and is carefully put together<br />
to create the perfect<br />
combination of<br />
tastes and textures.<br />
On Friday evenings<br />
the courtyard gets<br />
packed with people<br />
winding down their<br />
week with refreshing<br />
cocktails, while<br />
listening to the<br />
uplifting sounds of<br />
the DJ.<br />
