Caleb

Kitchen All-Rounder

Pro vegan chef for over seven years. He can even forage the forest for goodness to create with! This guy chops ALL those delightful vegetables you can see in your Krishna curry today, and the 300 + others also eating curry today, and in the samosas, lasagne, salads, sausage rolls (yes they’re vegan) everything you see served here, every day. Big job and big gratitude to Caleb. Meet him at our monthly cooking classes! His passion for cooking is so inspiring!

Gokul

Marketing & Communications

She missed Krishna Food so much that she recently moved from Auckland back to Wellington just in time for the opening of the cafe. Queen of gift-giving. Krishna Food marketing heroin. Hands up for this paparazzi lady who you have probably met already asking for your photo or video at the cafe… for a free plate of course!
She lets us all know cool things like how Krishna salad dressing can now be brought in BYO bottles, yussss
And when new vegan ice cream flavours come out, yussss.

Madhupan

Front of House
You haven’t known chill until you’ve known Madhupana.

Madhupāna can be found serving delectable Krishna treats at the counter, teaching her monthly meditation or DIY workshops or hustling away in the Kitchen at the Bhakti Lounge down in the city. This girl is so talented! The question is, when will her delicious food have it’s debut here at Krishna Food?

Manager

Probably the cutest manager you’ve ever met in your life, she brings the sweetness perhaps even more than our famous berry slice. Never without her signature smile, she organizes the ins and outs at the cafe like she was born doing it, her natural flair for management and keeping Krishna Food running as smoothly as can be and keeping her team as happy as she is. It’s easy to love work when your boss is as adorable as this! Come to Krishna Food and see for yourself!

General Manager

Thanks to this savvy lady the Krishna Food Cafe exists.
Projector manager, menu manager, staff manager, anything and everything manager.
How many broken down rice cookers and bain maries and freezers and taps and unemptied compost bins has this lady had to fix in her life thus far?! Her warm smile will brighten your day. If you see her around encourage her to open more vegan cafes around town people!
