Usually pop in for takeaway pasties and coffee and enjoy on the beach. On rainy days it's nice and cozy inside. Top notch.
Very busy so hard to find a table, probably a good sign! Good coffee and delicious galette, gluten free options. Easy to find a park on the street.
French cafe
This French cafe/patisserie is a great little spot for lunch with a selection of sandwiches/baguettes, pastries or cooked menu items to choose from. We tried a couple of the baguettes and some Madeleines and they were delicious. The coffee was pretty good too!
Stopped in for lunch while exploring Devonport and what a delight we discovered. Staff were very friendly and helpful, the food choices were really authentic French dishes and the range of cheeses on offer was quite diverse.
We lunched on a couple of deliciously crunchy baguettes (tuna and vegetarian) and chocolate crepes with a mocha and a cafe au lait to follow. The baguettes were absolutely divine :-) Since we discover that place we are coming every week. This is THE BEST CAFE in the NorthShore, strongly recommended !!
Wowww I just tried a galette... Incredible ! So yummy !! One of the Best Café in Auckland and for sure the best in the Northshore. Atmosphere, coffees, treats, everything is just perfect..
This place is always busy on a Saturday. I tried their almond croissants - perhaps I'm a bit fussy now, having had Lune in Melbourne... these ones did not blow me away. The coffee was good - local Chiasso beans.

Amazing food, you pay for what you get and that is excellence. Love this place. Even their sandwiches which appear to be very simple are packed with flavour and are enjoyable to every bite. Moved away from the area but still come back every now and then just to go here for the food.
The best ever French pastries - to die for !! not so good on the waist line ..Good coffee 💙❣️💞loved this place !! My mouth waters thinking of coming back highly recommended!
The owner arranged the most amazing lunch for my sister today. Beautifully presented and delivered to her for her birthday. All arranged from across the Tasman. Now that is service above and beyond. Delicious French food. Salad and terrine, Beef bourguignon, mashed potato grain mustard, French cheeses, chocolate tart with raspberry financier. Chateaubriant was my best find in Devonport when I visited for the first time last year.
One probably shouldn't rate their local too highly for fear of becoming clogged with tourists. Châteaubriant deserves a toast to their convivial French ambiance. The creamy tarts and crusty baguette's are fabulous and no doubt you'll meet a new friend.
One of my favourite cafes in Auckland.
Hidden away from the bustling area of Devenport, I took a ferry over from the CBD. A lovely walk through the neighborhood to reach here.
Greeted by very friendly staff members whom treated us really well (even received complimentary snacks at the end).
My recommendation is the Les Sandwiches - all the flavours are so good!
Coffee is also amazing - I often end up having two cups of coffee here as it is so well made.
Lovely French atmosphere and good seating area both indoors and outdoors.
I highly recommend this cafe to all!
Great coffee and food, with excellent service. Good vegetarian and vegan selections including granola with coconut panacotta and a delicious vegan bowl. Also: French pastries!
The food served here is lovely however my hot chocolate left quite a bit to be desired unfortunately. Great atmosphere if you don't mind a little noise.
Real bread, the best pastries and great coffee.
Under new management and looking fresher snd better than ever. Still the same quality food, your old favorites as we as some new treats.
Be prepared though. It is also super busy, but everything under control so wait is short! 😄
Still going strong. Always some new treats to tempt you.
An un pretentious and delightfully authentic French Cafe. The service is always very pleasant and the owner is a lovely bloke who is proud to present his family recipes and regionally local dishes. The beef-cheek burger and the Forest gallette are standout favourites
Great little bakery with fresh ingredients and organic coffee. I Recommend the baguettes and almond croissant!
Absolutely delicious food! yummy eggs, scrumptious pastries, almond croissants and crepes all made in-house. I would eat here every day if I lived nearby….and get very fat 🤣
Friendly staff, great coffee and wonderful French food including cheese, bread, pastries.. and little French treats! Fabulous
