Who we are:
Wild Root is a fully plant-based, dog friendly café and deli set in a beautiful rural location. Plants are at the centre of everything we do here!
Our cafe and deli offer a wide range of homemade meals with plants at the centre of every dish, no junk, no nasty fillers! We are determined to bring plant-based eating back to plants, putting vegetables in the centre of each plate!
