Rosie, in my opinion, is hands down one of the best brunch spots in AKL, with not only consistently top-notch quality but also very interesting flavours that are definitely not your typical basic cafe foods. Idk why it took me so long but I finally tried dinner here the other day & was 💯 mind blown 🤯💘.
• 𝘼𝙢𝙗𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙚: The place has glass walls = heaps of sunshine ☀️ = amazing lighting for photos 📸during the day time! At night the hanging halo garland chandelier above the centre of the dining floor is lit up, giving off serious romantic vibes.
• 𝙏𝙖𝙨𝙩𝙚: Tbh Rosie’s menu can be a bit confusing - as if they just put random fancy ingredients names tgt & call it a day 😒- BUT don’t be put off & just trusttt that the dishes taste way more impressive than they sound 🤪
𝕊𝕒𝕧𝕠𝕦𝕣𝕪: The star of the night has to be the 𝙎𝙝𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙧𝙣 𝘽𝙚𝙚𝙛, 𝙬𝙤𝙤𝙙 𝙢𝙪𝙨𝙝𝙧𝙤𝙤𝙢𝙨, 𝙨𝙠𝙤𝙧𝙙𝙖𝙡𝙞𝙖, 𝙩𝙧𝙪𝙛𝙛𝙡𝙚 - the beef 🥩 literally melts in your mouth & the umami truffle butter really gives it extra oomph! (𝚙𝚕𝚜 𝚐𝚎𝚝 𝚘𝚞𝚝𝚝𝚊 𝚑𝚎𝚛𝚎 𝚒𝚏 𝚢𝚘𝚞’𝚛𝚎 𝚝𝚑𝚒𝚗𝚔𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚘𝚏 𝚝𝚛𝚞𝚏𝚏𝚕𝚎 𝚋𝚞𝚝𝚝𝚎𝚛 𝚒𝚗 𝚊𝚗𝚢 𝚠𝚊𝚢 𝚝𝚑𝚊𝚝’𝚜 𝚗𝚘𝚝 𝚏𝚘𝚘𝚍-𝚛𝚎𝚕𝚊𝚝𝚎𝚍 𝚋𝚌 𝚝𝚑𝚊𝚝’𝚜 𝚏𝚞𝚌𝚔𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚍𝚒𝚜𝚐𝚞𝚜𝚝𝚒𝚗𝚐) The 𝙃𝙖𝙬𝙠𝙚𝙨 𝘽𝙖𝙮 𝙗𝙚𝙚𝙛 𝙘𝙝𝙚𝙚𝙠 𝙠𝙞𝙗𝙗𝙚𝙝, 𝙯𝙝𝙪𝙜, 𝙮𝙤𝙜𝙝𝙪𝙧𝙩 is one giant meatball that’s crispy on the outside & packed with succulent beefy yummy goodness on the inside. The 𝘼𝙪𝙘𝙠𝙡𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙄𝙨𝙡𝙖𝙣𝙙𝙨 𝙨𝙘𝙖𝙢𝙥𝙞, 𝙜𝙣𝙤𝙘𝙘𝙝𝙞, 𝙨𝙥𝙞𝙘𝙚𝙙 𝙗𝙪𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧, 𝙥𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙧𝙞𝙩𝙖𝙩𝙖 is both sumptuous & loaded with flavor. We also ordered some 𝘽𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙢𝙖𝙧𝙧𝙤𝙬 𝙧𝙤𝙖𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙙 𝙥𝙤𝙩𝙖𝙩𝙤𝙚𝙨 🥔, 𝙜𝙖𝙧𝙡𝙞𝙘 🧄- veggies, but naughty 🥰.
𝔻𝕖𝕤𝕤𝕖𝕣𝕥:
This is where the naming really gets me. The 𝙍𝙝𝙪𝙗𝙖𝙧𝙗, 𝙘𝙪𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙧𝙙, 𝙫𝙖𝙣𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙖 is a dazzling deconstructed version of the rhubarb custard pie 🥧 though my dumb ass really be expecting a stalk of rhubarb, a spoonful of custard & a vanilla bean on the side - which really does this dish a disservice bc it truly is a work of art. The 𝙁𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙙 𝙗𝙧𝙞𝙤𝙘𝙝𝙚, 𝙘𝙝𝙤𝙘𝙤𝙡𝙖𝙩𝙚 𝙢𝙤𝙪𝙨𝙨𝙚 is luckily quite literal, featuring the 2 said delicious duos with a little bit of golden honey 🍯 drizzled on top. The Vanilla 𝙂𝙚𝙡𝙖𝙩𝙤 𝙨𝙪𝙣𝙙𝙖𝙚 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙙𝙖𝙮 🍨, served with delicately spiced poached pears 🍐 with a drizzle of rich chocolate sauce 🍫 over top, is so elegant & classy it puts all the sundaes out there to shame.
𝔻𝕣𝕚𝕟𝕜𝕤: Whether it be 𝙃𝙤𝙪𝙨𝙚 𝙤𝙧 𝙎𝙖𝙡𝙩𝙚𝙙 𝙘𝙖𝙧𝙖𝙢𝙚𝙡, 𝙝𝙤𝙩 𝙘𝙝𝙤𝙘𝙤 is a must-try here. It always comes with a glass of frothy milk 🥛 & a jug of rich chocolate ganache 🍫 for you to pour through your drink. (They used to have homemade marshmallows which were such a hit but have now been replaced with boring store-bought marshmallows *cringe* - totally not judging if you’re into that tho, 𝘛𝘖𝘛𝘈𝘓𝘓𝘠). The 𝙅𝙖𝙥𝙖𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙚 𝙡𝙞𝙢𝙚 𝙜𝙧𝙚𝙚𝙣 𝙞𝙘𝙚𝙙 𝙩𝙚𝙖 🍹is also a great drink that’s refreshing & sweet but not cloying.
• 𝙎𝙚𝙧𝙫𝙞𝙘𝙚: Service is excellent & staff are super accommodating. My sparkling water always gets topped up as soon as it reaches halfway (you can always opt for tap water if sparkling is not ur thing 🤪).

🌟 5/5!!!
The service and ambiance it’s good for a cafeteria. The food came fast and hot. The place was crowded with people but not annoyingly which is nice to see. The only thing I disliked was the flavour of my omelette. Was to watery. Also I added pancetta as an extra and I got 1 very thin overcooked stripe.
Sunday brunch at Rosie’s is always my fav. I love the cosy spot, cheerful service and above all clean flavours. Today i explored the vege menu:
1) Tomatoes, puffed rice, avocado and pecorino- a very balanced dish with freshness from the tomatoes, nuttiness from the puffed rice and creaminess from the avo and pecorino cheese.
2) Asparagus, macadamia, ras el hanout- the asparagus was surprisingly sweet and had a good bite to it. Would have loved a bit more macadamia flavour coming through.
3) Cauliflower, Chickpea fritters, malt chèvre- my favourite of the three. Fritters were fluffy and full of flavour,
I came here for lunch with my boyfriend because I remember having the scampi pasta and it was really good. The location is really nice and the atmosphere was very lively. The service was fast and efficient but the food took a while to come out because it was the busiest time when we went. I got the pulled pork sausage for a change and he got the omelette with pancetta. My pulled pork sausage was really delicious, the sausage was flavoured nicely and the ingredients used was fresh and pulled the dish together. I highly recommend Rosie for brunch/lunch because it's a cafe away from the main street of Parnell so you also have a local neighbourhood feel to it!
Good muffin! They gave butter on wrong plate so me and my friends had to swaped ourself and there was no sugar sticks on the table(not a big deal). They keep filles the glass with sparkling water and taste good to stay long. Dates muffin was very nice and good place to spend time.
A really nice place with a nice atmosphere. I came here for my friend’s birthday a while back and I decided to come again for my own birthday. They were very accommodating and the staff was always friendly. They serve sparkling water and give you heaps of refills.
The lamb shoulder with flatbread is my favourite. The lamb is super tender and everything is delicious, although I wish there was a couple more pieces of flatbread with it. My friends got the clam pasta and really liked it too.
Same high quality food as other Hip Group places. Service was good, our waitress was very friendly and knowledgeable on the menu, able to give recommendations . Downside was that it was too warm and stuffy inside, tables a bit too close together. A been there done that experience for me.
Had a nice Saturday brunch up here a few weeks back. Had one of my go to's - poached eggs with a side of bacon and sourdough. Food was good, service was good. It was a little cramped and hot with the sun pouring in (see photo). Solid 4.

Always wanted to visit here when we stumbled upon this restaurant back then. We finally had a chance to have dinner here. Atmosphere was pretty romantic. The food was great, especially the fish. The tagliatelle was pretty nice too. The apple peppermint malt was yummy. The hot chocolate was our less favorite, but still good. Service was friendly.
I like rosie. It belongs to hip group. Their cafes all have same standard. Maybe the presentation is not beautiful. But the food ingredients created great. If you want old fashion traditional food you could not miss it.
