Cafe gets really crowded when they open at 8am on weekends, so best to arrive a little early. Service is prompt and friendly and the food is good, but the coffee is even better. Lovely place to sit outside too when it’s not too cold. Ample parking available along the roads near the cafe.
Nice airy and clean cafe, coffee was absolutely delicious as was the Shakshuka! Very busy though so had taken us a few weekends to actually get a table as bookings aren't taken for groups of 2. Will definitely go back to try some of the other dishes we saw going to other tables - lots of cleaned plates!
Happy to get nice coffee here. It was quite full and we had to sit outside. We were served promptly without much wait.
This is a restaurant that I go often on my day off, and I really recommend this place. The staff are kind and the boss is nicer, so I can't quit this restaurant. The food is so good
Excellent location close to Margaret Mahy Playground for those parents who want to tie in a Cafe visit with a trip to the playground. The service was really fast - we were in and out in half hour from 130-2pm on a Saturday. Husband loved the eggs benedict but felt the rosti was undercooked. My ginger lemon tea was lovely and my daughter really enjoyed her fluffy too. We will be back soon!
Book. That’s all I can say. It’s a very trendy cafe and always busy. The coffee was good, the menu has been kept small and very strong Korean influence. It’s nice to see they haven’t “kiwified”everything. Portions are right size our family but not for a average kiwi. 2 coffees + 3 meals -$90. Staff are good and polite. Food and drinks come out when they ready which I have no issue with. Seats about 50 covers and full.
4.5 overall. Coffee is good, 4/5. Food is excellent 5/5. Ambient/decor is good 4/5. Service is excellent 5/5. I had iced coffee and kimchi fried rice on omelette. Since it was very busy coffee took a while (even after the meal) but it was very nice, nothing to complain about. Kimchi fried rice was excellent, it’s very flavoursome without been to acidic which is very rare for Asian fusion cafe food. Good ambient with very friendly service, I highly recommend it.
Decent spot. Interesting decor. Nice staff. Clean. Small but mighty menu. We had: Americano, Iced Oat Latte, Hot Oats and Eggs Benedict with Mushroom. All really good. Then we had a chocolate cream cheese brownie. This was the least good option we tried. Slightly dry with surprise raspberries. But we still demolished it!
Really cool 'industrial' cafe environment across from Margaret Mahy playground. Lots of nice food, bustling at 11am Monday. Lots of shared table space. Had coffees with almond milk brand I wasn't familiar with and it tasted ok - not as good as Almond Breeze milk tho. A few sunny outdoor tables street side.
Lovely service, even though they were busy, and fully booked they made space for us. Recommend the French Toast, it was delicious. Sorry no photos, we couldn't wait to eat. We also had hot chips, a muffin and scone all very delicious as well. Children are welcome, I had my little moko with me.
