Your only organic vegan cafe in Adelaide and South Australia.
Bliss principles
Shane and Grace believe that organic food is the way to go, the way to live and eat. That helps our health and does not harm the Earth. Most produce, meals and retail products at Bliss are organic (certified or organically grown). So, whenever possible we source organic produce and products.
Our priority order: Vegan, Organic, Local.
Recycling and Helping Community
We recycle whatever we can and compost all food scraps. Whatever we cannot compost, we give it to the local community gardens. Leftover food goes to local homeless shelters and people in need.
By purchasing bottled drinks at Bliss you help not-for-profit organisations as 30% of the collected and sold bottles goes towards Animal Liberation SA and One Village.
