Review Onemana Boatshed Cafe - Whangamata

My partner and I enjoyed both our breakfast and dinner meals here. Fish and chips were absolutely delicious. Good friendly service, props to the bro for running both the cafe and dairy solo very well. Would definitely return :)

Great Service the food was top class and tasty. Popped in to Onemana to check out the beach and decided to have lunch. Definitely stop off here if you get a chance.

This is a brilliant little cafe in a secluded place. It is easy to overlook but it provides excellent service with excellent food and very reasonable prices. They have an attached cafe which provides awesome coffee. I had the meat platter (pictured) for two and if was very filling for both of us while providing an excellent variety.

Fantastic breakfast. Delicious food, great price and size of meal. Mushroom dish was delish as was the bacon I stole off my husband's plate. Best mocha and hot chocolate we have had.

Well what can I say. This place is in a beautiful area for all to enjoy, relax in serene peace away from the hussel & bussel, have a drink with your meal and just admire the scene around you from the comfort of this lovely Cafe Onemana. The young counter, reception staff & cooks are all so impeccably impressive. Well done Cafe Onemana, I thoroughly enjoyed my very first visit and had to return the next morning for breakfast.

We held a casual beach wedding reception lunch here for my family of 60 and had a great time. Thanks to Pan and the team! Can't beat the location on a nice day - Ocean views, sunshine, plenty of shade, sea breeze. We loved supporting our local Onemana cafe at a beautiful, rustic cafe location. Perfect layout for a big catch up with people in an informal setting. Pan was very helpful in the months leading up to the event in ironing out the details, and flexible in tailoring a venue/catering package that suited our needs. We were able to have the place to ourselves. Great communication and flexibility for our celebration. Food was pretty good - we had 2 course share platters (entrees and then roast/grilled meats) and were able to BYO wine (self-service) and dessert for per head fees. Then of course had access to hot drinks, beers, non-alcoholic beverages ordered at the bar. Staff were super friendly, relaxed and helpful. Surrounded with a beach, park, and even lily pond it's a sweet little spot. Can't beat the location.

The Onemana Boatshed is an absolute Michelin level restaurant IMO. Fish of the day was John Dory and oh my God it was amazing. I returned the next day and my partner and I ordered it again for dinner. Dessert was brownies and ice cream cream. Next night was cheese cake. This chef is next level! You won't be disappointed, you'll find a way to eat there again. We had a great time with the staff. Diane is a dag. Super great service and equally great sense of humor. Thank you Chef Pan. We loved it.

Fabulous food, reasonable prices, really REALLY fresh seafood, wonderful dairy free etc specialist baked goods to die for! Really good service too. Highly recommend!

Such a nice little cafe with great views of the beach and friendly staff! We enjoyed our breakfast here, we had the big breakfast and hot chocolate and both were delicious. Will definitely be back next time we are in the area 🤍

More than a review, this is a thank you note to Pan and his crew. Thanks a million for making the 4 of us feel at home at your restaurant, the great food and coffee.Looking forward to return soon. Wishing you all the best from Melbourne. Again thank you for taken such good care of us.

Lovely coffee lovely owner what a great spot thank you see you later for an ice cream!

What a find. Great food and lovely friendly staff. Will definitely be back...very soon.

Hubbie and I dropped in for breakfast before doing the bushwalk that starts at back of Cafe. Pan cooked us both up a really delicious and beautifully presented meal. Definitely a five star quality. Also great hospitality and dog friendly. We shall return.

This gorgeous cafe is located looking over the beach and in the heart of Onemana. They had a $15 lunch menu that included dishes like fish and chips, tempura scallops, steaks and eggs and I had the squid, pork ribs and chips. The meal was absolutely delicious and the side salad was a yummy surprise. I also had a coconut, feijoa and mango (dairy-free) smoothie which was so creamy and not too overwhelmingly sweet. I was happy to find their range of cakes and bakery items were dairy-free, and I stocked up on treats for the next few days. This cafe is definitely worth the drive if you are in the area. Absolutely delicious and friendly service.

It is well worth a day trip to Onemana just for the Boatshed coffee and pies. And a swim. Quality food, delicious, and a good selection. Not overwhelming. The coffee - Riley - is also delicious, not bitter, and the staff really know how to make it. The gourmet Pies (tried moroccon vegan and butter chicken) were the best I have ever tasted, superb ingredients, delicious flavour, and the pastry excellent but not too much. We will sample more on our next visit. Excellent food, excellent coffee, excellent staff, congrats to the hard working owner.

Visited this great cafe today for brunch. Food and service were amazing! Everything on the menu sounded delicious but can definitely recommend the eggs benedict and creamy mushrooms with toast. Our toddler further enjoyed the butter chicken pie which wasn't too spicy and had great flavour. Will be back!

Enjoyed a delicious lunch at this lovely cafe! Relaxed atmosphere, friendly service and gorgeous views. The calamari salad was super yummy. Delicately cooked and perfect flavours. Thanks so much!

Pen was accommodating and very personable host. The food we ordered was excellent. And if you find a better location in New Zealand, please tell me
