   They are no longer under the same ownership as they were two years ago, and the quality of the food has dropped significantly. All the ingredients feel cheap and low-quality, clearly sourced from supermarkets — inexpensive sausages, frozen hash browns, and basic bread. The sausages are filled with starch rather than meat. I honestly can’t believe how badly this place has declined，It's a breakfast bad enough to ruins the day

   Spacious coffee shop at close walking distance to Orewa Beach. The food was good and the service was good. It can be a slight but uncomfortable to sit at the outside area when the wind is a bit heavy.

   A nice quiet cafe one block back from the main street of Orewa. Had brunch here and wished I had gone inside and seen the cabinet food before ordering off the menu. Im not an egg person and a lot of the menu included egg so I found it hard to choose. Settled on the open burger which was ok just asked for the egg to be super well done. The cabinet food looked good though. Option to eat inside or outside under cover. Whilst its nice eating at the beach front cafes they can be super busy so this was nice and relaxed.

   Bad experience. We ordered the beef burger, but the bread was moldy. The staff only offered us one free drink. We then changed to steak, but the steak wasn’t fresh either. Probably won’t come again. Seems like the ownership has changed.

   This place was pretty darn good. Ambiance was nice. Servers were on top of things and the food was delicious. We got avocado toast and fish and chips. Also got a medium size flat white that was quite large. Will definitely return when in town.

   menu has changed to what shows on google, barely any (if any) seafood orientated options anymore which is what we had come for. korean chicken burger was ok but nothing amazing, the chicken itself tasted like brown sugar not spicy korean and slaw was underwhelming to say the least. had to hunt for sauce for the chips as it didn't come on the plate. hope this is not the regular experience.

   So good…..lots of people in the cafe on the way walk to the Orewa beach that make me want to try some even busy time and make me have to wait for but yes! worth it . No wonder why many people come here . They have many pastries looks good and the food in the cupboard looks very tasty. I bought the blueberry cheese cake at this time me and all my friends said the same it was super delicious perfect cheesecake ever. Will visit and try another foods and pastries next time for sure. Thank you.

   Been here twice, once with family and once with friends and have always enjoyed their food, atmosphere and service. We ordered their smoked Salmon Benedict, creamy mushroom, squid rings, and iced mocha which were all delicious! A perfect brunch experience that I highly recommend.
