About
Kombucha Cafe on Wharf Street, Murwillumbah, is a plant-based café and fermented-foods brewery run by The Art of Culture. Its drawcard is the kombucha, nurtured in aged oak wine barrels and finished with flavour tinctures made by a local maker — a more considered approach than the usual mass-produced brew.
The kitchen leans fully into cultured, plant-based food: cultured vegetables, fermented crackers, vegan mousse cups, plant-based jerky and SCOBY snacks sit alongside the café menu. Kombucha is sold by the glass and in 330ml and 750ml bottles to take home. It is an easy spot for a healthy, gut-friendly bite and a coffee in the centre of town.
