Literally everything we ordered was the most delicious items ever to have eaten from a bakery. The bread is sooo lovely- crunchy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. Omg the praline macaron! God it was to die for. The chocolate and coffee mouse cake the absolute best. Absolutely divine. I went at 11am on a Sunday and there were about 8 groups in the line in front of me. Got in about 10-15min later and I could see there was food already sold out so I’m coming at opening time next time!
The deserts here are absolutely sublime. Tried the orange passionfruit tart and it was honestly a revelation. The line can get a bit long but if you're early enough it's not an issue. If you're passionate about your deserts, you cannot go past this place.
90% of food here look so good and actually taste good too! Their bread are awesome. The price is really affordable!! Love love love their croissant, one is not enough. Wish this place was close to my place so I can go there every week!
The baguettes that we've tried (multi-grain and normal) were one of the best that we've had. Both were usually fresh right out of the oven, still warm and best plain or with a dash of olive oil. Poulet was incredibly scrumptious and macarons were to die for. The best part of it all, it was inexpensive and all pastries were of the best quality.

I have been trying their bread ever since they opened. I must say that I have yet to encounter a better bakery in all of Auckland .
The pastries are crisp and flaky while the sandwiches combines their delicious bread and fresh ingredients to create the optimum savoriness. I have tried all the sandwiches they offer; in my opinion the best sandwich they offer is the ham and cheese. In terms of pastry, the croissants are simply the best (chocolate, normal or almond, they are all equally delicious). The cravate they offer deserve an honorable mention since it contains the optimum combination of sweetness through the use of slightly bitter chocolate and brioche bread , however, the chocolate usually only cover 3/4 of the bread, resulting in 1/4 of the cravate being simply sweet bread (still, not too bad if eaten with coffee).
The bread they have on offer completely crushes all other bakery in all of Auckland. Whether is it the baguette, white loaf, brioche.etc, they are all of the highest quality. I particularly enjoy their baguette, which has a crunchy exterior and a chewy interior. It tastes so good that one could eat the whole stick by itself as a snack without needing any sauces or fillings.
All the desserts they offer are all sublime( Eclairs, chocolate tarts, mousse slices, macrons .etc). One cannot go wrong with trying any of them, but in my opinion the chocolate tart surpasses all other desserts. The chocolate tart contains three pieces of meringue placed around a tower of sweet cream on top of it. When one bites into the tart,&; all of three components harmonize together to form a crunchy, silky, chocolaty, not-overbearingly-sweet flavor.
The coffee they offer is quite smooth and delicious as well, however, I am not an expert coffee drinker so i cannot really make any absolute judgement. I have to say that it does go well with their bread and dessert offerings.
In terms of interior design they have renovated quite a bit since first opening. Their latest look prioritizes line efficiency, allowing people to reach the counter and ordering quickly(line could be 10 people long and in less than 3 minutes one could place their order). It is also quite beautiful and modern. Note, i do not care too much about ambiance of a bakery as long as it looks welcoming and clean thus my opinion could potentially differ from others.
One of the most important factor influencing someone buying from a bakery is the price of the products. I am happy to state that this bakery is extremely fair priced, especially when the sheer quality of its products are so high. Most pastries most go over $5, desserts usually well below $6 and sandwiches around $5.5. I usually buy 1 dessert/pastry, 1 sandwich and 1 small coffee and i pay around $10 each time. Taking into account their high demand, they could have most likely increased the price of their products significantly but their price has not changed too much since opening (accounting for inflation).
Overall the delicious products, low cost and modern ambiance pushes this bakery well above all others in Auckland.
Out of 100, 100.
First of all I gotta give this place a 10/10 cause their pastries are to die for! Yummy and sweet and the pastry is perfect 👌 the only thing I would complain about is that it's always busy cause they are just too popular! And food sell out fast

I’m so blown away by this bakery. As soon as you enter you are met with the aroma of freshly baked bread. Got 2 kinds of baguettes fresh out of the oven. their crust was super crunchy and inside was soft. We also go the lemon loaf and chocolate loaf, both solid and moist, just to die for! In fact, we had already left but had to come back for a second round on the way home.
The best bakery in Auckland so far ❤️

Tried this for the first time two days ago and I’m back again today! Beautiful food, great prices, friendly staff. Will be back again! Thanks!
Easily the best bakery in Auckland. The éclairs, fougasse, bleu d'auvergne and baguettes are highlights but everything is good. Turn up early, they sell out
