Have you tried this cafe?
Ethos Cafe isn’t just serving food - it’s rethinking the entire food system. From growing its own produce to composting kitchen waste back into the soil, this cafe is closing the loop, one plate at a time.
“We grow our own food, bring it into the kitchen, and whatever’s left goes back into our garden,” says head chef Chris McIntosh.
Have you tried this cafe? Tell us about it in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
