Yonder

Quickly became my favourite morning stop. Half price coffee between 8 and 9 is a winner. The poached eggs with pulled pork is something special and for those who are hungry. Would also recommend the cinnamon swirl.

Loved it! Always had lots of vegan options for me and yummy vegetable dishes for dinner too when you need a break from carbs need fibre. The vegan pancakes for breakfast were amazing! Coffee is by Supreme Beans which are pretty good. Vegan muffins and cinnamon roll was amazingly yummy too! Seating inside is better when it’s cold but they do have heaters outside. Staff are friendly and helpful. Yummy mulled wine too!

Yonder is always such a vibe!!! This time we went for dinner and ordered the brisket with fries and the Japanese fried chicken. Very well served and beautifully presented. Big brisket fan here and it was melt-in-your-fork tender!!! Loved the barbecue sauce and the spices on the pickled red onion. I tried two drinks suggested by the staff: the Woohoo and the Miss (something I can’t remember). I honestly couldn’t pick a favorite! Guess I’ll need to go back to refresh my memory hehe Thanks & well done team! Isa

Chic restaurant that serves unique brunch options, with their pancakes garnering quite a bit of attention and caught our attention when looking for a brunch spot! 🪑 there’s quite a bit of outdoor seating when we arrived, and they are warmed with 2 heaters in the centre - making it a good sitting area to enjoy the outdoors 🥞 pancakes were unique, was a little skeptical coming into it as it came with a steep price tag, but saw that it was actually unique when served, with lots of different bits which makes for quite a flavour bomb - i would personally still prefer my pancakes the traditional way with savoury food though. 🥦 the cauliflower dish had a million flavours as well, a dish that is hard to processed flavour wise (in a good way) - the kale was the standout as it was perfectly crisp. ☕ coffee was too milky for the large cup, but otherwise decent It’s quite a pricey brunch spot for the quantity, though the quality is definitely present when comparing it to other cafes.

Came for breakfast. The venue is actually much larger than expected from what we could see from the road. We got vegan pancakes with extra sausage. The pancakes were very good for being vegan (and maybe gluten free too IIRC). We were also impressed by what seems to be house made sausage, although they were more like koftas or burger patties. Not cheap but servings are generous. Service is very friendly and attentive. Venue is stylish and distinct.

Wow, Al was looking after us and she was a delight. We have been in Queenstown for 10 day and we all voted this as our favourite meal and are considering back for breakfast but have flights to catch. Huge kudos to the chefs and staff. We highly recommend Yonder.

This place is a gem! Perfect breakfast spot but you can also get lunch & dinner, the vibe and seating area is awesome. Heaters and blankets accessible at each table in the winter, great music playlists and table service. The staff are happy to make changes to your dish if needed (I had things in separate bowls, and asked to swap ingredients from another meal).

Turkish eggs 10000/10 You have to try them! Great place to just hang out and chill The waitress serving us (I’m sorry I can’t remember your name but you had the nicest pair of corduroy overalls ever) was super friendly and attentive. Amazing service, she really put the work in to make sure everyone was having a great time.

We stopped by Yonder for lunch after a morning trip to Milford Sound and overall had a good experience. I ordered the SsamJang Eggplant and Sticky Rice Bowl, which comes with a half-eggplant, coconut sticky rice, pickled radish, sesame, cashews, crispy pumpkin, broccoli, kale, green beans, daikon, and tahini. It was overall delicious (I particularly enjoyed the coconut sticky rise, crispy pumpkin - which reminded me of tempura, and the daikon). The eggplant came out a bit cold which I thought was odd. Wasn't sure if that was intentional (which I doubt since the rest of the dish was hot) or if it had been sitting out? For those with dietary restrictions, they do an excellent job listing diet-friendly dishes (e.g., dairy free, vegan, vegetarian, etc.). In terms of "workflow", you order at the counter and then find your own seat. The ambiance is modern and cool. Overall worth a visit!

We stopped in for brunch and had a wonderful meal! The staff were very friendly and helpful. You line up to order at the counter and then grab a table to sit down. It gets relatively busy at lunch time, but there are plenty of areas to sit. There are also fun activities and promotions on certain days including a silent disco and happy hour, but unfortunately we didn't stay long enough to take advantage of these. The dining area was clean and well decorated. The menu had plenty of vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free options. We ordered the chicken flatbread, vegan butty, and full yonder. All were very filling and tasty. I had the chicken flatbread, and though the components were delicious, it was a bit unwieldy to pick up and eat, so I ended up dumping all the contents off and tearing the pita bread into pieces. The vegan butty was a 10/10 and had "unique flavors" according to a friend. The full yonder was also hearty and the mushrooms and bread were especially tasty. We would recommend Yonder to anyone visiting the area for a quick lunch.

Great brunch spot in Queenstown! Food: Yonder has a lot of options all made from high quality ingredients. The plating is great. I especially liked the charcoal latte which was a unique thing I've never had before Service: Typical service for a fast casual restaurant. Staff were all very helpful. Ambiance: Yonder is definitely a cool spot in town. You can sit inside or out on the front patio. It has a cool retro diner aesthetic. Seating is abundant for small parties, but if you have +3 people you should reserve before coming. Highly recommend Yonder for a visit if you are in Queenstown NZ on holiday!

Glad we did wander into Yonder. Strolling around Queenstown, we felt at a loss when our originally planned breakfast spot was unexpectedly closed- stumbling upon Yonder, with their winter menu posted outside, I thought their dishes sounded creative (&were reasonably priced-including side add-ons), with some hearty combinations of ingredients, so we decided to give them a try. Walking in, the warm ambiance of the beautifully designed space, made us feel so very welcomed- Part café', part nightclub, the vibe was on the 'hipster' side, with unique artwork in funky frames, rustic plant décor, and fun graffiti, but overall felt quaint, homey, and perfect for settling into a both to chill for the morning. Now, people may often people say, 'that was the best __", for something quite delicious, but I want to emphasis I absolutely mean it when I say that was the best flat white coffee I've ever had. Designed with a leaf froth, it was creamy & roasty; a perfect balance of coffee nut flavor with the milk froth. I found myself saying 'this is delicious', 'not really this is delicious' with each sip, heavily debating how many cups is enough. For food, we split a chili egg scramble & jalapeno corn fritters topped with a side of haloumi. The chili egg scramble was a hearty plate of well-seasoned scrambled eggs, over crispy sourdough bread-with a tasty sauce drizzled over top helping cut a spicy kick with a savory blend. The fritters were a balance of dense and moist- crispy outside, soft inside creamy corn fluff-with a delectable jam sauce for dipping- They were a bit heavy, luckily we were splitting because I wouldn't be able to eat all three myself- I gave the bacon to my husband for his scramble and paired my fritter and eggs with the haloumi-which was very well crisped. The plates were hearty- a perfect size to fill the belly without over indulging- Their menu items all sounded delicious, I honestly took photos to remember some of their combinations to try to re-create at home (such as their specialty pancakes and stuffed French toast) I wish we lived in Queenstown to become Yonder regulars. I highly recommend.

TLDR: Decent food for breakfast, but definitely pricey. Unfortunately Yonder was out of brisket and cold brew when I visited. The Bacon butty was big but absolutely smothered in sauce. The grilled chicken flatbread was delicious but for $25, it could have a bit more chicken on it. The space inside was a bit cramped as the morning went on, but there is a heated outdoor area that only a few people took advantage of.

Be prepared to spend an hour waiting for your food AFTER you ordered it. We came at 10:30am on a weekday and ordered pancakes and a poke bowl and waited near an hour for the food. The service is unbelievable slow and the wait staff behind the counter was rude. Yes the coffee was good, but you need the patience of a saint to dine here. They were also out of oat milk and refused to share the WiFi password. Normally not a big deal with ragards to the WiFi, but I'd just been on the Routeburn track and Milford sound for 6 days without connectivity. And they give the tiniest portions ever.

I stopped in to try the famous charcoal latte! It was delicious. I had mine made with coconut milk so it was extra coconutty. The service was friendly and the atmosphere was relaxed. I loved sitting outside on a nice summer afternoon. I wish the prices were a bit more affordable, though!

Young, hip and was the most poppin place to eat in the morning. Super cute, goods food all is good. Came here via recommendation from a local.

Yes, the wait is long but if you're expecting it and it's a nice day out, then who cares? I got the French toast with raspberries and pistachios and it was exactly what I was looking for- not overly sweet but satiated my sweet craving. Also got the fries because again, why not... they were crisp and delicious!

Best vegan pancakes I've had in life so far! Apple syrup and coconut cream was icing on the cake. Cappuccino was delicious.

Beautiful restaurant. Amazing food and very hospitable staff. I've tried the Pork Benny and and the bacon Butty and it was delicious. Recommend a must eat place. Keep up the good work.

I really loved the vegan bhan mi. Very unique bun. Actually everything was really good, especially the ambiance.

My go to coffee place in Queenstown. Iced latte with cream coconut milk Free Wifi. Chill vintage vibes which make for a good bar after hours. There is even occasional live music there which is a rarity in QT.

Wonderful arty cool place! Great ambience, with fireplace, magazines and green plants! Love the decor. Popular breakfast/ brunch place in the market place. We stopped there for breakfast. They stay busy, so you take a number and wait. We did not have that much time so we got our egg burritos to go. They were spicy Mexican style with fresh onions, tomatoes, corn and beans! Crunch with cooled scrambled eggs! It was delicious! Hope to return there at some point for a really relaxed brunch:)

Mussels to die for!! Not to mention the rest of the menu. This was a great find, having not even existed on Yelp so Amazing wines and great service. Fun outdoor garden to watch the sunset

So so good. Got the strawberry pancakes and holy cow exceeded my expectations. Coffee was splitter and the food came fast. The Bill Murray portrait was icing on the cake. Def recommend if you're in Queenstown!

The roasted eggplant was delicious and my wife enjoyed her chicken dish. There was a large group of millennials at a nearby table. They seem to be having a great time. Service was a little slow but we sat outside and it was a pleasant evening.

It is a nice place and food was really good, however when we were paying I was charged for an extra beer which, we ordered but never got!!! And we told this to the waitress, still had to pay 10$ for nothing. Thank you, we can find another place as nice that won't charge us for something we didn't get

Came here for lunch today and was really pleased. We got the kimchi bowl with beef (tasted a bit like a bi bim bap). Delicious. We also got the bbq beef sandwich with fries which was great. Both portions were very filling. Good coffee and lemonade and excellent service and setting. I'll be back to try dinner!

Breakfast, lunch, tea or drinks Yonder has it all. Absolutely excellent. Local, premium food. Pure class.

We went for dinner. They offer some excellent dishes and were very accommodating for vegetarians with lots of clear substitutes. Good choice of tap beers (10+) and wine list too. Cool place!

Busy but speedy. Estimate 30 minutes and took only 15. Great portions. Good menu. Brisket had a stewed beef favor and was a little gamey, but flavorful. The jalapeno corn fritters were mild but very nicely done. The eggs and streaky bacon were just a tad undercooked for my preference, but to each his own! Very good ingredients and great space

Had a great outside table on a great evening. The shrimp appetizer was tasty. Enjoyed the tuna plate with ale they had on tap. Friendly, efficient service with many smiles. I would go back.

A bit of hype about this place so thought we would check it out. The food we had (scones, muffins etc) were fine but nothing to get excited about. The main reason we came was for coffee and that was disappointing. Luke warm and weak. Won't be rushing back.
