This is my favourite cafe. There are many healthy options available. I love all the juice, smoothie bowls and smoothie, some of must try options from me: Acai smoothie bowl, Acai smoothie, green aid juice, and so many more, just give me the whole menu.

Called in for breakfast at The Harvest Press and it didn’t disappoint. My strawberry matcha was just divine, the homemade strawberry jam was just a delicious addition, I also had the banana bread and oh my, it didn’t disappoint. Beautiful and clean venue and very friendly staff. I couldn’t rate it high enough. Superb!

We were lucky to discover The Harvest Press on our first morning. It was close to our hotel in central Darwin and the quality and freshness of the food was so good. We didn’t consider looking for another place on our remaining 5 days. The wonderful barista made excellent coffee thanks to his studious attention to detail. The same level customer service was evident in all the staff. They were very friendly and welcoming, although sadly kept too busy to chat. The cafe overlooks the beautiful trees in Raintree Park which especially nice if you are lucky enough to get an outdoor seat.

Came here for brunch and it was wonderful. Had a nice chat with the staff, and enjoyed the French toast. Fresh Start juice and the coffees were perfect too. Very cool inside, will be coming back next time I'm in Darwin.

Could not praise this cafe enough - our son has a really bad dairy allergy and is a toddler. We tried 4 different cafes prior to this looking for somewhere that would be able to make dairy free scrambled eggs for him so we could enjoy breakfast together. We were happy to pay more but no restaurant was able to cater for our request- that is until we tried harvest press. Lucky for us we had the yummiest breakfast with delicious fresh juices and smoothies too. The staff are so lovely and acted like nothing was too hard for them- made us feel very welcome! We understand it is hard to cater for allergies but thank you SO much Harvest Press for catering for ours, with a smile on your face and the most delicious food!
