The Strand ticks all the boxes.

With great service, friendly staff that pay attention to detail.

Food was exceptional, with one of the best Big Breakfast I have had. Eggs cooked perfectly and a great balance with the potion sizing.

Coffee was good. Well balanced and made well by the baristas. Good crockery sizes too.

Priced on the medium to high side, but give the quality, worth it.

Overall good place for coffee and food. Would also make a good meeting place. Definitely recommend

Thank you The Strand Cafe, I will be returning soon.

This cafe is located inside the grand Saatchi & Saatchi building in Parnell. They've been renovating the outside of this building for quite some time, so it's finally nice to be able to walk past/enter without having to avoid any road cones, caution tape or scaffolding.
It's quite cool sitting in the cafe as you're right in the middle of all of the offices, which are on multiple levels, and you can see everyone coming and going. It feels a bit like a lobby and I can imagine that it's a nice space to unwind for the large number of people that work in this building.
This cafe feels like a bit of an in and out place for me. There were a couple of groups of co-workers having meetings over coffee.
I only ordered a hot chocolate as I popped over after lunch when I felt like some time to myself. The hot chocolate was great, just the right amount of foam and chocolate on the top and no syrup left sitting at the bottom of my cup. 
There wasn't any cabinet food like I'd expected but there was a menu which seemed to have a few brunch/lunch type options at reasonable prices for Parnell. There were lots of smoothies on the menu which sound yummy and super healthy.
The seating was pretty plain, a leather lounge suite and different sized groups of tables and chairs. It's quite a large area so it feels sparse.
The staff were friendly and my drink was served up extremely quickly (you'd be surprised at just how long a hot chocolate can take sometimes!). I'll be back to try a smoothie when the weather is warmer or more likely when I forget my breakfast.

Just met the new owner, super friendly guy the Batista's and crew is awesome, but by far the best feature is the view of the building. Open in door area cafe with great architecture. Price is quite high tho so keep that in mind but the cafe is great!

So happy to be back after lockdown; the food is better than ever - I think I had the best Mushrooms I've ever had there - and I can always rely on amazing friendly service to go with delicious coffee. If I could give more stars, I would!

Great food and plenty of healthy options! Awesome for breakfast and lunch. The building is a magnificent setting for the cafe and you'll be sure to bump in to some of NZ's best and brightest that work in the area. :-)

Always consistent, good coffee, not a lot of cabinet food to choose from and no variety from day to day.
