What to Eat at Flow How we choose these items We use AI to find praise and criticism of specific foods and drinks in a selection of Google reviews. For Flow, this list is based on 50 reviews, not every review of the restaurant. The score is positive reviews minus negative reviews. For example, two positive reviews and one negative review give +1. Each review counts once per item; neutral comments do not change the score. A zero score is not a positive recommendation. “Only neutral feedback” means there are no positive or negative votes. “Mixed feedback” means equal numbers of positive and negative votes. The quotes are examples of what people said, not every comment we counted. We use different reviews where we can. We normally show up to 10 foods and 5 drinks with non-negative scores. Items with the same score stay together. If a tied group would go past the limit, that group and the lower non-negative scores go into Honorable mentions. If an overflowing positive top tie would leave the list empty, we show up to 10 items from that tie and keep the rest in Honorable mentions. Foods and drinks with a negative score are under What to Avoid. Use this as a guide to what reviewers liked, not a guarantee that you will like it too.

Tips for a Better Visit
Check location. Allow extra time to find Flow because it is inside the mall rather than immediately visible from outside.
Double-check takeaway. If ordering takeaway, check the bag before leaving because one customer reported missing items.
Choose dine-in. Try dine-in if you want to see more of the menu: a reviewer says it differs from the takeaway selection.
Plan to order. If you need to sit after eating, be prepared to order again; one guest encountered that seating expectation.
Use parking. Drivers can look for the basement parking, with one review reporting two free hours.

The Bottom Line
Flow is a health food cafe and creative hub in Trade Centre, with breakfast, lunch, coffee and snacks in a relaxed, colourful setting. Reviews make it especially useful after a Museum of the Future visit: one visitor noted an air-conditioned footbridge at the museum entrance, while another found it comfortable for laptop work. Breakfast has real range, including Eggs Benedict, Turkish Simit and Egg, blueberry oats and chia dishes.
For a sweet stop, the carrot cake, orange chocolate cake and banana loaf all get specific praise. Drinks are a strong part of the appeal too, from the Homemade Spanish Latte and Honey Cinnamon Latte to coconut milk cappuccino, juices and smoothies. Health-conscious diners have plenty to work with: reviews mention vegan choices, low-carb high-fat and protein meals, salads, fresh sandwiches, and paleo- and gluten-free options.
The atmosphere is generally cosy and welcoming, though one reviewer found it loud at times. Service is usually described as fast, friendly and attentive, but one guest reported being asked to order again when trying to sit after breakfast while feeling unwell. If you are driving, a review reports two hours of free basement parking.
Finding the cafe can take some patience because it is inside the mall; once ordering takeaway, double-check the bag, as one customer said items were sometimes missed. Note too that the dine-in and takeaway menus differ.
