Third visit to Goldies but this time for lunch. Great atmosphere and laid back vibe. The food just gets better and better. I recommend the corn with the most amazing butter, the delica pumpkin and the chicken. The chips and dips were amazing. Staff were excellent as usual. Can totally recommend.

Great food (though I thought it would be hot and the breakfast focaccia was cold). I love all the great vegan options, and it was really a short walk from Kings Cross. Unfortunately, the music was far too loud--it was deafening and intrusive, and the staff couldn't turn it down (it made it hard to have a conversation).
