Review Icoco - Auckland Central

Grayson Hardcastle
Really nice little owl themed cafe tucked away in Blockhouse Bay. The prices were really reasonable, the food tasty, and the coffee hot! I got the B.L.A.T and the bread was lovely and fresh and a great portion size for the price. You can add an side of fries for $1.50 which I did. The homemade Aioli was really tasty too. The staff were very friendly and helpful and we will most likely come again if we are in the area!

Welcoming, helpful staff, and plenty of choice from either the cabinet or menu. Well prepared and presented food that is excellent value for money. Our go-to place for breakfast or lunch when we're in the area.

Love this gem. I'm always coming back for the wedges but today I decided to try the toastie which was also amazing! Decent portion for the price too. My mum who is very picky with how she likes her coffee enjoyed her latte πŸ™‚

Good little cafe we visit often. Perfect has browns. Eggs Benedict always on point. Creamy mushroom room with smooth coffee is the goto as well.

The breakfast was absolutely on point. Accidentally stubbled on this trip on my work trip and enjoyed the friendly talk with the staff and am perfectly done breakfast. Would highly recommend and would definitely be back for the breakfast again. πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ₯πŸ₯πŸ₯πŸ₯πŸ₯πŸ₯πŸ₯πŸ₯πŸ₯πŸ₯πŸ₯πŸ₯πŸ₯πŸ₯πŸ₯πŸ₯πŸ₯

Not a bad bacon and egg muffin with hollandaise sauce. Although they do microwave not toast the bap.
Paul Preston
Good local cafe for a coffee and break to read the paper. Very lacking in gf cakes or slices, only one type of gf biscuit available.

I order pork bao, sauce and the bao in general was good. Downside is that the pork was a bit hard. Mocha was too sweet , tasted more like a hot chocolate.

Supporting my sister's local favourite Icoco Cafe in Blockhouse Bay. After our morning walk we treated ourselves to a delicious and healthy lunch with smoothies. I would highly recommend the cajun chicken salad and my sister's recommendation is the eggs benedict with bacon πŸ˜‹ Thank you for the excellent customer service, the friendly chit-chat and suggesting healthy menu options from the brilliant team at Icoco cafe - Jessica (Front of house), Star (Barrister), Niki (Head Chef), and Nicole (Chef). Keep up the great work. We will be backπŸ‘πŸ‘

My fave cafe. I have only ever ordered from here via Uber Eats and they have never disappointed. I can imagine the food is even better in person. They always pop a little note and some lollies in the delivery bag! So sweet.

Great service. Friendly staff and very prompt. Definitely recommend.

Had an excellent lunch with my brother from Aus. French toast and friendly staff

Great food and service. We stopped just to try a new place and now it's our favourite Saturday morning stop.

I used to work near icoco cafe, it’s been a place I visit most often, not only because of its friendly stuff, the food and coffee has always been delivered at highest standard. I stopped by today, it’s still the same owners from 5 years ago and everything is still the same as how I remembered. I ordered pasta and flatwhite and it certainly didn’t disappoint. Will definitely pop in whenever I’m around.

Have been coming here for soon to be two decades, over the time I have watched it hold many different levels of service and food quality. However, recently this establishment must have undergone new management or chefs as I have two incidents of food poisoning involving their chicken dishes (cajun Chicken Pasta, Cajun Chicken Salad). <br/><br/>My partner has been hospitalized due to repeated back spasms from vomiting intermittently, however I have gotten over mine throughout the latter half of today with only having shat my insides out (Today being Tuesday, having had the meal on Monday). This follows a previous incident where one of our acquaintances contracted food poisoning after their Chicken Pasta meal as well.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, due to this, it will definitely be a long time before returning here (if that). The front of house staff are all good, friendly etc. Just be careful when eating anything chicken.

I’ve been to icoco so many times and every time I get the same great quality food and excellent service from their lovely staff. It’s a great place to catch up with friends or even just get a quick coffee on the go. Such good value meals as well. I highly recommend!

Fave cafe, great food quick service and great value! We live quite far away but we always make an effort to go because it’s so worth it! Yum!

I can’t believe the last reviews for this place were posted 8 months ago. This is a great little place, and clearly very popular with the locals going by the constant flow of customers while we were there. The first thing you notice when you walk in are the many owls around the cafe, which is a cute touch. The service was quick and friendly; I had the mince on toast, which may sound boring to some, but it tasted absolutely amazing! Definitely worth stopping in again.

Icoco is my fav! They have good everything! I love the portion sizes and prices! Large size for a small price. The food is all well presented and matches the taste too. My kids love the pancakes here and the colouring in paper and pens they stick on the wall afterwards. Kid friendly!

Staff were just chilling on their phone when we arrived. Gorgeous owls painted on the walls, quite dark although tidy. <br/>Decided to try this place as we tend to always go next doot although Icoco always looks busier. Bought a Beef Burger as it came with fries. My partner ordered a coffee (which was presented beautifully with the right amount of foam -flat white) alongside eggs benedict. Although the presentation of the food was lovely; the serving size weren’t that great. My burger, unfortunately was tasteless. Would be good value for money if you didn’t already know the awesome deals next door. Sorry but probably won’t back.

A Great little place to eat, and considering it was right accross the road from another of my favourite places to eat "The Block" the flavours and presentation of the food overall was outstandingπŸ˜ƒ.<br/>Portion size was perfect if youre on the move and service and wait time wasn't an issue at all.<br/>Note ... The Egg Bene ... Now You could actually taste the butter in the hollandaise sauce omgπŸ˜…πŸ‘Œ and the Corn fritters were just as tasty on the pallet as they were to look atπŸ˜‚πŸ‘ but nothing i mentioned and ate previously was as amazing the Pasta, now that my friends that is where i almost cried eating it was that goodπŸ˜πŸ˜­πŸ˜‚πŸ’˜πŸ’˜πŸ’˜!! It was a chicken pasta dish originally but the chef was happy to not add any chicken to the dish and added more mushrooms instead😊. Thank you Icoco you made my mouth water and my Foody Soul Happy. I will definitely be back for more cheersπŸ˜˜β€πŸ’‹XO!!. #vegetarian #westie #foodie #yumyum

Great food, great price, wonderful service. Nothing you can judge. The place you must come!<br/>Have been here so many times with friends or by my own, they provide great taste food and very good price! Would definitely come back again and again.
Patricia Cabaloza
Good food and very affordable. Benn here three times and i Will definitely be going back again to try other food in the menu. Very friendly staff too.
Dorothy Fraser
Excellent Food, excellent service, nice menu selection and very reasonably priced. Β I had an omelette with a side of bacon. Β Best omelette I have ever had - Yummee! Β I will most definitely be going again soon and would happily recommend this cafe to anyone.
Miriam
Had lunch here the other day with my husband and overall it was a pretty good experience. The staff were great and welcoming. The food was excellent, I had the pasta and my husband had the burger (i cant remember which one) , I really enjoyed my pasta although I wished I would've gotten something else that smaller in portion because by the time I finished my lunch i didn't have any space for dessert which I really want to try the sticky date . I will be definitely be coming back to taste the sticky date 😬
Jade Bridge
Fast and friendly service, delicious food at reasonable prices - what more can you ask for?? We will definitely be returning here during our stay.
Manic Diner
Had lunch here with a friend yesterday. I found the staff friendly and attentive and the service pretty fast. The food was good value too. I ordered the chicken,avocado and camembert panini which was served with fresh salad and chutney. I loved that they included mint in their salad. My lunch was delicious and very filling. I barely had room for the sticky date pudding with caramel sauce which I had preordered because whenever I see a sticky date <br/>pudding on the menu, I simply MUST try it. The sticky date pudding was a bit of a letdown..very dry. Overall though, a tasty lunch with great service.
Tan.ned
Ew. The pasta was really salty and their service was average. Won't be coming back there again. Once was enuf for me thanks. I think it was the fetucinne pastas..
Nikita Kumar
The prices at this place is really great, its cheap and lovely. If you are wanting a meal thats filling (large portions) and affordable this is the place to go. A favourite we always order and that I highly recommend is the C.L.A.T its around $11 from memory and is a large meal that is very flavorsome.
Sonam Kumar
Great value for money here! We are locals and when we need to go out for a casual brunch we choose Icoco. The food is really well priced with a CLT sandwich for $11 and Eggs Benedict for $14. The cafe is quite small and old (need for a renovation) but we go for the food so we dont mind too much.
Ryan Simon
Awesome place, friendly staff<br/>Β <br/>Highly recommend this place. Food is always cooked to perfection and their coffee is consistently good.
Diane C
Like others have written before me, Icoco is good value for money. The food is tasty and the portions are generous. The coffee is always hot, which I can't say about a lot of other places, and if you feel like something sweet with your coffee, the carrot cake is delicious. It's so moist and has just enough creamy frosting on top.
Andrea McDonnell
Had lunch at Icoco Cafe today. We dine here often and are always satisfied with the consistently good meals on offer. In my experience, Icoco offers good value for money, unpretentious food that never fails to deliver, and the staff are always pleasant and attentive. For these reasons we will continue to dine at Icoco. Keep up the good work team!

There is a reason this humble little cafe has won Metro awards for many years, it provides simple, tasty, great value breakfasts and lunches together with some of the best coffee in the city. We have been coming here regularly from another suburb and will use it even more now we have moved to Blockhouse Bay. The staff are friendly and efficient. Recommended. Could move the smelly smokers away from the door tho'!
Becca
Icoco has become our regular cafe for breakfast/lunch - the service is good even when it's busy, and the prices are great in comparison to other cafes and the size of the portions. The french toast and pancakes are especially good, but so is everything that we've tried. Come in early to get a good spot, there's seats outside too.
Windy Smith
THE BEST sticky date pudding!!! the service is great, coffee is even better. I recommend this place to anyone for weekend morning / afternoon tea. Never tried lunches but for the prices they offer, they can not go wrong!! especially the cafe assistants always smile....
Nicola Bishop-Bensley
Love the coffee...!!! Monday thru Friday only good coffee shop around!!
Vaughan Borcovsky
I am in Blockhouse Bay for a week and have just been to iCoco Cafe this week on the recommendation of work colleagues. The coffee is fantastic and the service is excellent. So great to go the following day and for them to remember you and for them to introduce themselves and ask my name so they can remember it for next time, which they did. <br/><br/>If you are looking and great coffee and very friendly service this is a most.
