The French Toast is the best, not just locally but Auckland wide! Perfect as it is but if you add Bacon or Fresh Strawberries you're in for an extra special treat! Service has always been friendly but a bit mixed as far as speed and accuracy goes. On one visit our paid for at the Counter Orders were "checked" with us twice back at the table, not a problem but we still don't know what was difficult? Another time what looked like a sort of impromptu Staff meeting was held at the back corner which caused a bit of back up in the queue. Parking is tricky here, as what appears to be available is "technically" not. Lastly the place seems to be getting busier and busier, especially the weekends before midday. We tend to book now, even if 15 minutes before we plan to arrive. They do they best they can to accommodate. Thanks HVC!
Love love love this place, the food is always delicious, service fantastic, very reasonably priced and the coffee is fab! Can’t say enough good things about them! Thanks for all the yummy brunches throughout the year, I will miss this place x
The food and service are great. Cool vibe and decor, good for families and to meet friends. By the cinema so very handy. Delicious meals and cabinet food. Coffee is just okay. Lots of parking and near public transport too.
Took young friends- they were impressed. Lamb shank, pork belly and ginger beef. Starter of dumplings and chicken. Food presentation and flavours terrific. Service great. BYO an advantage for us. Busy place on Wednesday night.
A lot of things on the menu I have yet to try.
It’s really yummy food here and the staff was very friendly and gave us a warm greeting while arriving. The pasta was really delicious and I love the creamy sauce with bacon & mushroom. I'll definitely come back again:)
One of the best cafes in East Auckland! Nice atmosphere with friendly staff who are happy to set up tables outside for you if it gets too busy.
The food here is very good and always presented nicely. I would highly recommend the nachos here!
The BEST cafe in Howick 👍👍
def a must go to cafe in you're out east. they are always very busy everytime I pass by (sometimes a queue on weekends).
breakfast and brunch is amazing!! Eventually tried out their dinner menu and no doubt it is amazing as well! The yellow curry I had is very creamy and rich in flovour, better goes with rice! my friend loved her burger even it was too big for her. Will have to come back and try other food again.
Made a booking for a birthday dinner here and it was such an amazing experience. Biggest thank you goes to the manager Cynthia who I was in contact with to organise the event. She was so sweet and organised, it really made planning the dinner so much easier.
The food came out fast, all the dishes looked beautiful and tasted as good as they looked. Highly recommend to pick this place for gatherings and events.
A nice busy place for food, very close for me and great for locals. Had a nice salmon bagel and some take away from last week. Always like their food. Just a little bit noisy at the cafe. If you were looking for a place to talk maybe need to checkout first before sitting down.
Have been here many times trying out different things on the brunch menu. Each time the food has been to a high standard and well presented. There is a great selection of food on the menu as well as cabinet food. There is both in door and out door seating however can be very busy at times which is expected with food this good. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for a great brunch in Howick.
Everything was beautiful, the staff were welcoming when we entered, coffee was delivered right away, the food was beyond excellent and the berry smoothie was beyond delicious!
Very nice staff, delicious food. My son loves the berry smoothie 😋
Vegan breakfast was unique and tasty, coffee was made with Allpress beans and they all tasted great (flat white with oat milk, latte, americano, latte with soy milk).
Lots of savoury and sweet cabinet food options alongside the menu which was good.
Delicious dinner, staff are friendly and attentive. Super nice atmosphere. Can totally recommend it and will definitely come back again.
First time being here, had heard excellent reviews from friends and finally made the drive from Central Auckland. This was definitely worth the drive! The iced coffee was excellent and had good flavour. The food was delicious and had generous portion sizes! It was fresh, flavourful and pleasing to the eye. I implore people to make the trip (that don't already live in East Auckland).
Met friends here for brunch. We all enjoyed our meals, lovely to sit outside in the sun/shade (they had outdoor umbrellas). Busy place, best to book!
Lovely cafe in Howick! Excellent service and nice decor. Great coffee and high quality food. Plenty of parking nearby. Best to book in the weekends, as it can be quite busy. Located next to Monterey Theater. Great place to catch up with friends and kid friendly
Great food every time! Has got more expensive lately, paid $95 for 2 people lunch and soft drink only! Special occasions I think but it’s great.
Lovely little Cafe. The staff is very friendly and attentive. The food came very quickly (although I was there early and I was the only one at first!). The plating is beautiful and it taste as declious as it looks. They have a good selection of sandwich, rolls and quiches in the fridge as well. Definitely worth a visit.
Delicious food as always daughter had her favorite open chicken sandwich (bit light on chicken this visit though) and I had the brioche French toast. Coffee and smoothie was also lovely. Great menu options and lovely staff.
Place was fully booked but we managed to get a table pretty quickly. People were getting turned away after we sat down. Both drinks and food came very quickly and both were very tasty. Even at a busy time, highly recommend this place!
