Staff were super friendly. Surprised by the pancake as I'd never seen it made like this before but it was nice, thick and filling. More syrup needed though. Big breakfast was huge and good value. They had run out of wedges and were very genuine about the mistake and kept apologising which was very humble of them. Food was average but the excellent customer service made the food even better. Highly recommended.
Found a new fave spot! they serve a really good coffee and food! come in generous portion as well! def will be back
I love this cafe! Good food, great service and friendly staff. Has been my go to place for breakfast. Portion size is also big. Their omelette and coffee is just soo good!
This is one of my favourite cafes to eat at! It always has a lovely laid back vibe and the food is so delicious and cheap! A real bang for your buck. The portion sizes are huge ! Definitely can satisfy a big appetite! Only thing I’ll recommend on changing is maybe using fresh salmon for the eggs benny rather than tin salmon. Other than that everything else was perfect.
I love the coffee at Urban Jungle and the food is always the BEST in Auckland for a cafe. Try Triple S. if you love eggs and salmon or the big breakfast as both portion sizes leave you struggling to finish. Large is enough for sharing...They are very generous here and coffee is very large too. (Double the size of other cafes) You feel like a old friend of the staff as they are always welcoming, friendly and happy. It’s very clean and trendy and inviting too.
So happy to have a cafe like this in Grey Lynn😘
I came in here today with my mum and sister and I ordered a big breakfast. Usually when I go to other cafe/breakfast places their big breakfast isn’t even that big, but I can tell you right now the Big Breakfast at Urban jungle is actually BIG. I struggled to eat the whole thing (I managed to eat it all anyways) lol. My food was delicious, I loved it. My mum had eggs Benedict and couldn’t finish it but she loved how it was made, to her it was perfect. My sister ate a BLT burger and couldn’t finish it either. I was trying to prove my mum that I could eat all my breakfast (even though I struggled) lol. My first time here today and I had a great first experience, the staff was super kind and welcoming. Keep up the good work!!
I can only comment on the coffee, it’s great. I’m vegan so there are no options for me to eat here. That’s why I’m only giving 4 stars. But coffee is really good and there’s a lovely outdoor area.
Very lovely place. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by a sweet lady. Nothing was too much trouble for her. We ordered a bagel with scrambled eggs, avocado and tomato with a side of hash browns. To drink I had a soy mocha and my mother, a latte. Both were perfectly blended!
Always enjoyed coming to Urban Jungle. Foods are tasty and of generous sizes. It was disappointing that my favorite Chicken Astrio is no longer available and is out off the menu. However it got me to try out something new. Their open steak sandwich was of the same high standard
Fave Cafe hands down!
Used to go Coffee Club as my go to cafe but once I tried this place I’ve never been back to a coffee club. Fave is Bacon Eggs Bene which is bomb (hollandaise definitely makes the dish, bagel just a little hard tho) with fries on the side. First time trying this place earlier this year and I’ve been about 10 times already lol. Always recommend this place to friends, they also do a bomb big breakfast for only $21 and you won’t be disappointed.
The food and coffee are excellent. The flavor and the potion of the food we ordered are very good. Suggestions for improvements are below:
1. The seats are uncomfortable, need to be upgraded.
2. The windows of the café are not clean, as well as the glass cup. Need more works.
3. The two staff were talking loudly in another language rather than English. Very ignoring customers. When the staff taking the order, he didn't listen to the customer patiently, rushed to order for the customer. I know he may just be kind but really not a professional service way. Definitely lots of room could be improved in front service.
Anyway overall food and coffee and fine. Happy to back to see any improvements there.

Loved this nostalgic venue. I remember this place from the OG owners and where it is now. Still a cool place to meet, gather and enjoy great food, good conversation and an awesome area 😀 🥰 Grey Lynn Babyyy!!! Try their Smoothies & Fries #Epic!!!
Just had a fantastic experience as a dad with his 3 kids (8, 6 and 4). Table service right away with colouring sheets as we sat down. Water to follow. We had 3 kids pancakes and a big delicious burger.
Had to get a second flat white as it was delicious. And the barista gave my kids a lesson on how coffee is made, followed by a hot chocolate to take away (for free!)! Blown away by the customer service and appreciation.
This is a good one. Will be back.
Big breakfast was yummy. I got the "small" big breakfast and son got the "large". Could have had some butter for the toast, otherwise very good. Coffee was on as well.
A cozy cafe in grey lynn, perfect spot if you have fur friend with you, my go to cafe for weekend brunch! They serve delicious food with good portion. Totally recommended! psa. the silkiest scrambled egg in auckland imo 🔥
My family have been in Grey Lynn for over 30 years and Urban Jungle Cafe is an institution!
In particular I LOVE the salmon eggs benedict! Massive portion can be shared by two, generous salmon, benedict sauce and baby spinach! Call me basic but I also love the triangle hashbrowns you can add on the side!
Parking is available on surrounding streets, wheelchair accessible and kid friendly!
100% recommend you give Urban Jungle Cafe a go and be prepared to have a new favorite 😍
Best (SSS) Salmon, Spinach and Scrambled Eggs in town. Generous portions. Chef does a perfect job and staff always friendly and helpful. A+++
Urban jungle was a great little find. Prices are a little high compared to others. But it really makes up for it in quality and size of the dish. Service is fantastic
Great dining experience today. Had eggs benedict and mum had pancakes. Huge portions. We struggled trying to finish them. Very tasty.
Really good food and very relaxing. Would recommend to friends and family. Very good portion for the price paid
