Loved Melba. Nice relaxing atmosphere. Good customer service. I really enjoyed the house lemon, lime and bitters, and we loved the Bacon Buttie brunch dish. Relish!!
Great pit stop on the side of the Motorway! Amazing food and drinks. Lovely outside/courtyard type seating area. The breakfast food options were delicious (the omelette in particular 10/10) and a sweet little mimosa to wake the girls up. Recommend!
Really lovely experience here. We had lunch and enjoyed the lean green smoothie with an extra protein shot and caramel nut smoothie. We also enjoyed the fish taco (comes with two) and Karaka chicken waffles with the fries. The atmosphere was really lovely but felt it was slightly overpriced. Would definitely still recommend.
Food is okay, no wow factors for me. It is definitely on the pricey side but it has the ambiance. It gets busy quite quick despite being a weekday. Giving it a try will be ok but I am not coming back. They have heaps of space and if I can remember correctly, you can host a function. They have a selection of cabinet food too. The service is excellent. There are parking spaces too.
Lovely café just off the Papakura exit via the motorway. Service is fantastic, as was my garlic honey chicken salad with lemon hot toddy.
Love this place, great food, friendly staff, accommodation so we could bring our dog. Best Filly shake I've had in a long time.
Loved the food and atmosphere here! The place was super busy but the service was great. Really attentive and friendly staff. The hash bene with Manuka smoked bacon was so good, it had pickled onions and the drizzle of balsamic glaze made it ten times better! Really good coffee as well, I ordered a Mocha and I loved that it was actually chocolatey and came with marshmallows! I will be coming back again for sure! :)
A very busy place & lovely decor & setting. Food & drinks were very well presented and tasty. We had finished our drinks long before our food arrived. Hubby's chips arrived 10 minutes after the mains, very hot so we guessed they forgot to cook them until we asked after them. I would go back because the food was worth it.
