An old favorite, cozy place. Perfect for those slow evenings. Love their kumara fries and poke bowls. I go there quite often. The only thing - the staff can be difficult sometimes and not polite.
You might find yourself having to come back later, as it's usually packed - with good reason. Service is friendly, orders come quickly and food is generally quite good. Daily specials are also great. The carrot cake is legendary.

This used to be one of my favorite places of all times.. I've been coming here regularly for 7 years and brought so many friends and dates. What attracted me to this place is their casual environment, it's easy to come here alone and enjoy a meal or just a drink and read a book or great for coming in with others. The food and the coffees and the cakes have always been amazing. But... after coming here for years the service often lacks in service.. some days the service is really bad and I get really sad and disappointed.. also they stopped giving jaffas with your coffee and no longer have nice soap Ashleigh and Co in the bathrooms which used to be a very nice touch. Some days I asked to swap a few things for something else in my meal and it was no problems, other times I was bluntly refused and told not possible by some new staff. I've been coming in for years and think that deserve a better service than that. I think over the years the service became much worse. Sometimes you sit down and no one comes to you in ages. I think you guys really need to work on that. Haven't been here for a while now as decided to try new cafes now with better service for returning customers...
Love the friendly service and the cafe atmosphere, will definitely come back some other times

Home of the famous carrot cake, this place is a go-to for anyone who loves quality Kai. I absolutely love this sweet cafe. From their vintage furniture, to their homely warmth and smiles from staff, this place always leaves you with a smile. My personal favourite is their carrot cake, of course. I used to have a generous slice (always guaranteed) with a side of kumara chips!! Really hoping they put the chips back on the menu soon!
THE bestest all-day eatery.
That’s the end of story.
Zomato wishes me to write more than 140 characters so this is me just mumbling away about how amazing this place is and that I don’t want anyone to know it but at the same time everyone to know it
One of the best meals I’ve had in Auckland!
I ordered the Chicken Burger for lunch. Chicken was well-seasoned, veggies were so fresh it seemed like they were picked seconds ago from a backyard garden, and serving size was quite filling.
Ambiance was also very relaxing and quaint. Worth the price and the travel!
Lovely service and friendly team. I ordered the hot cakes, they were amazing. Ordered a side of bacon but the cost was absolutely ridiculous $6.50’is incredibly over priced. As a local I will be back but a price review or adding it to the actual item itself should be considered.
Absolutely love this place the most cozy and quirky place and you can have such a tasty meal and feel great about yourself doing it! All wholes food based, healthy fats (avocado and salmon) protein (salmon) and carbs (rice quinoa) lots of veggies for the vitamins and minerals! 5/5 all around here!
One of my favourite cafes. Their dessert section is my favourite and have tried most of their cabinet desserts. They have quite a few delicious gluten free dessert options as well.
Portions are generous and service is quick and excellent. Definitely a must visit cafe while in Devonport.
Came for dessert and coffee with my sister. I personally found the desserts to be too rich and so I unfortunately could not finish them. We also ordered two hazelnut hot chocolate’s but could only taste hazelnut in one of them. The service however was good and the staff are lovely - especially after we accidentally walked out the bill and had to scurry back quite ashamedly to pay. I will definitely return and perhaps try a different dessert or something savoury.
Our iced coffee and smoothie came out amazing. A perfect place to rest our legs after a long walk around the port. Customer service was impeccable; the staff was so lovely and generous. We had a pleasant visit to the cafe in Devonport. Absolutely worth the visit!
Again I had the pleasure of enjoying the food & atmosphere in this wee gem of a cafe today. I have been coming here for several years now & even though I have the same meal every time (Eggs Benedict with Salmon & Mash) with either a Shandy or an Iced Chocolate, they have always been delightful & the meals so yummy. The young lady who serves me & who has been there for some time now, has consistently proven her worth with her friendly & efficient manner. Sitting in the outside courtyard under the umbrella by the plants & flowers listening to the birds chirping away is a treat & a way to enjoy a wee piece of quiet time that I always treasure. Thank You ..
Friendly and efficient staff. Chicken was dry. Noodles instead of zucchini would've been tastier. The sauce that came with the dish was nice. The salsa tasted as if it was from a jar. The beans tasted like it was from a can. The chips were warm and crispy. The aioli was a bit cheap tasting. However despite these shortcomings it was a welcoming café with a variety of menu and drink options.
Staff are super friendly. This is the cafe me and my husband go to the most. Their eggs benedict is amazing and never fails to satisfy us. It's quite a drive from our home but worth it. Parking can be tricky, especially on busy days
Poke bowl for lunch! Everything I wanted and beautifully presented. Followed by a slow mosey down the wharf.
A total fave. I live in Papakura but when friends visit I travel all the way up to Devonport to have this awesome cafe experience. Fave big breakfast in Auckland. Really friendly staff and it reminds me of the beautiful ‘local’ cafe I love at home. If I lived close by, Corelli’s would be a regular. Thank you, team!
Went here for the first time today, great coffee and staff, I had the creamy mushrooms and bacon, best I have had in years, my friend had there big breakfast which was massive and look delicious. And apparently was also extremely good. definitely worth the drive from the city. easy parking and relaxed friendly atmosphere. definitely will be back.
A very nice family business. Food & service was great. I particularly enjoy the good quality water & the eggs. Thanks! Charles, CJ's Junk Removal Service, Devonport, Auckland.
Dropped in for lunch yesterday and thoroughly enjoyed. Snapper and chips was perfect and the ginger cake delicious. Wonderful friendly service, thank you team Corelli 😊
