The Blue Bird vegetarian café is located in the heartland of the culturally diverse inner-city suburb of Mt Eden in Auckland, New Zealand and specialises in vegetarian and vegan cuisine.
The Blue Bird vegetarian café is one of several small businesses run by members of the New Zealand Sri Chinmoy Centre. Both nationally and globally, the Sri Chinmoy Centre is dedicated to fostering a happier and brighter future – what our spiritual teacher Sri Chinmoy describes as a “oneness-world-family” – and to offering the message of inner peace and harmony to our modern world. >> Read more

We look forward to serving you at The Blue Bird.

Let us eat and drink
According to the need of the body.
Let us love and give
According to the need of the soul.
Let us reveal and fulfil
According to the Need of God.
– Sri Chinmoy.
