We found Rona's Cafe to be a nice Oasis from the southerly wind in Akaroa. The atmosphere was very warm and welcoming especially when visiting this area in the off season.
This was hands down the best meal I have had in my entire life. I am not worthy of this food. I cannot pick a favourite dish, but gun to my head it was the lamb ribs. Amazing atmosphere and lovely staff. Thanks so much Rona's, we will be back <3
Laudable. Coffee well extracted but milk just a bit off, and a bit of miscommunication on ordering and timing. Other than that the place looks lovely, the muffins were absolutely unreal, and the kids fluffies were cute. Definitely will be back
Rona’s is so delicious. Each dish is unexpected in the most delightful way. Corn risotto is supreme and it was the best chicken liver parfait I’ve ever had. Would make the trip from Christchurch just to eat here. Well done!
Best Coffee Shop in Akaroa. I didn't get to explore all of it, but this was the spot that stood out. great decor and cosy-modern feel. Great spot for warm and hearty dishes on a cold winter or summer's day. Wish i could of taken more pictures, I just didnt wan to be weird.
unfortunately we can't show a picture of the cold dishes we had. they were so delicious that we forgot to picturize them. one of it was the fish crudo and it was outstanding. my wife normally does not eat raw fish and only did me a favour to order this dish together for sharing. after she tasted it I had problems to get my portion of the meal ;-)
it was a unique experience to dine in this restaurant.
if you stay in Akaroa and have some sense of culinary taste then you have to go there. you wan't regret.
Such a good place to stop for breakfast if you're Akaroa, and well worth the drive over the hill if you're in Christchurch for the weekend.
The food is tasty and fresh, the coffee worth traveling for, and the walk around Akaroa afterwards well worth the time.
Well what can I say? Staff ✔️food ✔️ setting ✔️. A great place to enjoy food and the sun in Akaroa. We're an unruly brunch, toddlers, beer tasters, food lovers and loud laughers... We decided to turn up for an early dinner to taste the new menu of the season. The food was delicious.. market fish, gnocchi, sweetbreads, lamb, paté.. all fantastic. The waitress was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. She also made a great cocktail. The chefs were loads of fun and I enjoy how you can watch them. My son fell in love with their kitchen and the delicious smells coming from it. We sat outside in the garden.. and honestly it's one of the most beautiful restaurant gardens that I have been in. Loved the experience.
Best coffee place in Akaroa, hands down, Rebecca is a legend! both girls always smiling and lovely to deal with, hope you find a new chef and some FoH someday brunch was always beyond delicious.
Such a cute little place with great coffee and vegan sweet treats. The Mars slice and bounty slice were absolutely to die for. We specifically came to Rona’s because of a vegan dish seen on trip advisor but they no longer serve it. Two vegan options were available an açai bowl and avocado spinach ciabatta. The avocado ciabatta was nice but the spinach was a bit salty. Service was really awesome and everyone was friendly and helpful when it came to making vegan options.
