Loved their seafood chowder! The chowder was full of flavours and lots of small mussels and vegetables. The soup was really thick so it was good for bread dipping also. The Turkish bread was so soft and yum that I wanted more! The seafood skewer was quite small but it went well with the chowder. Good location of the restaurant as there was a nice view by the water:)
Went to Platters yesterday with a group of friends for brunch and as usual had a great time. I had the seafood chowder and it was pretty fine. My friends salads and eggs. Have to admit I had plate envy for Bacon and Scallop Salad. Next time.... All super fresh! Coffee great, views amazing and for once Auckland's pesky onshore wind was absent so we sat out front watching the big ships coming on and out. Love the friendly staff. This is an extended family affair and the commitment shows. Don't believe everything you read from professional complainers (BTW Have you read ALL the last guy's reviews? He must get a kick out of being the most dissatisfied eater on the Planet. I've been to many of the restaurants he disses so savagely and wonder if he's been to the same places I've been to.) Platters is a good quality local cafe/restaurant; It doesn't aim for haute cuisine but what it does it does really well.
Ten of us went to celebrate my mother's 75th birthday on a busy December day for lunch. Drinks and food were prompt and staff very friendly. Scallop and bacon salad recommended and everyone enjoyed their choice. We all left very impressed and content.
Lovely location. Easy to find carpark outside. Not as packed as further up the road so if you want a cafe that ticks those boxes come here.
I felt the only downside was actually the speed of the service. Wait staff attentive enough but I prefer my coffee well before my meal not just before it.
As we came for breakfast, I found the menu offered the usual. Portions huge.
I chose the scrambled eggs. Might add they were delicious. Cooked to perfection.
How good was that!? Good food. Good service. Good view. Good value. We had the Spanish deluxe and Mushroom & chorizo. Flavors were exploding and celebrating in our graceful mouths. Devonport also turned on the best sunny day. Cannot have any better brunch. Great experience.

This place has a great venue right on the waterfront in Devonport overlooking Auckland city. It's never too packed as the restaurant is quite big. A good variety with breakfast and lunch menu and the food is generally pretty good. I've only had one instance where I've been disappointed which was with a chicken salad as pictured (it's not on the menu stated here) and like i said it was a one-off since I've had plenty of delicious salads here before which I have also added in the photos. Platter also offers a military discount which I think is a nice touch.
Great food every time we have been. Three seating options, out front overlooking the water, inside and the back courtyard, sheltered and sunny for lunch. Really friendly helpful staff.
We ordered the seafood chowder and the vegetarian fettuccine and both dishes were very nice. The service was prompt and friendly and the views of the harbour are great.
Pretty great location with loads of seating. Nice selection of breakfast and lunch food, we were there for brunch. Prices seemed pretty fair and great tasty food. Beef burger had that yummy homemade feel about it, could maybe have done with a nice chutney or sauce on it, but still yummy.

The chicken fettuccine was delicious. I would highly recommend. The only thing that would have made it better was if it had been served with some garlic bread.
I added a poached egg to the creamy mushrooms and 100% didn't need to. Delicious plate of food, rich and generous. Good customer service too
Great place!
I cannot recommend them highly enough! Such lovely staff, food is delicious, and the restaurant is clean, comfortable and has amazing views!
I recently celebrated my birthday there and my friends and I had an amazing time. Their orange cake is soo good, it tastes homemade with true ingredients.. Absolutely love this place!
Beautiful setting, small but good selection of counter food. Friendly staff; prompt, efficient service.

Best service and food and coffee highly recommend....
Great service. Tasty dishes. Wonderful views
Such delicious mushroom meal plus outstanding view , will definitely come back again! 😊😊
Beautiful location with a cute al fresco outdoor area out back. Food was brought out in a good time despite the restaurant being quite busy and the staff were pleasant and sociable which made for a nice lunch. The food itself was well portioned, cleverly laid out and very tasty. I had the roast vege salad which was delicious.
This very friendly place was a pleasure to go to. The view over the harbour was amazing. We had the chicken livers with mushrooms, if you like chicken livers this is a must. This restaurant is great place to meet up with friends. Thanks Guys absolutely loved it.
