Cafe & Coffee Shop & Pub in Auckland

“Amazing service and even better food! Got the croissants and the blue smoothies and it was all superb! Maybe the best breakfast in New Zealand! Love all the staff and their infectious positivity! Thank you for the amazing expirience :)”

“Discovered this gem while in AKL on business, staying at the Heartland Airport Hotel. 5 min walk (free off street parking available side of cafe) extensive menu, clean & tidy. Everything made in-house except the pies. I ordered from the cabinet “to go” a large savoury scone, raspberry lamington, low carb vege frittata with side salad & coffee. Covered lunch & dinner all for $25! Tasty food, good coffee, all staff welcoming & delightful service from Morris - will return on my next business trip.”

“Incredible food. Ever since trying their ricotta ravioli I've been thinking about it at least once a week. Their entire menu sounds amazing and their cocktails are super reasonably priced (and taste great). Fantastic service too. Can't fault a thing.”

“Staff are so welcoming. Great bar too have a few drinks. Good atmosphere. Nice and tidy.”

“I can only say that the fettucine pasta that I ordered was one of the best tasting pasta that we’ve ever had. We got chicken breast and added mushrooms and the chicken breast was amazingly tender and flavoursome. It was a hit with the whole family. Delicious!”

“Pretzel BLT is great. The pretzel bun is fragrant and soft, veges tasted fresh”

“Excellent food. Perfect service. Loved the smokey bacon and sourdough. I'd buy loaves of bread if you stocked them. Highly recommended. Will be back for sure!”

“Been a fan of this place for years the music on most nights is great hidden gem is upstairs to the right of the toilets along with 3 other cool spaces to share a beer with your mates never once have I seen any drama door staff do a great job. Safe place to get a glow on”

“Food was amazing and the staff are very down to earth people. Thank you for serving community over the years.. No doubt you will be missed. Much love to Rupa and his team. Takecare❤️”

“We held an amazing event here, Nick and his team made it incredibly easy, and took care of us so well. We had a lot of people from outside of Auckland and they were so impressed by the location, such an amazing venue for a gatherung , Big shout out to Andy and Grant who were amazing on the bar , I highly recommend parked up for any event”

“My friend had popped over from Melbourne and was staying at the Park Hyatt so we decided to come here. A very good choice we made. The service was very quick and the drinks and food was top notch. We had The Hail Mary (Philly cheese steak) and The fried chicken burger with a couple of drinks. The fries that came with the food was crispy but soft inside and Steak Sandwich was superb. It was a bit loud but the music was great. All in all we had a good evening out.”

“A wonderful Turkish influenced cafe. The Baklava latte was spot on. Paired with chilli scrambled eggs worked well with flavours. Loved the whipped feta beetroot that came with the smashed avocado. They also have a separate kids menu. Our table host Ted was pleasant and gave us a good experience. Beautiful morning wonderfully plated food. Even the butter on toast had a special wrap.”

“Delicious eggs on sourdough. Just perfect and great value. I couldn't stop looking at the cabinet food though - wow!! It all looks absolutely amazing, delicious and wish I could have come back for morning tea... and lunch... and afternoon tea! Everything was wonderfully presented as well. What a great spot!”

“Staff are excellent, very friendly and the food is very reasonably priced - I had a big bucket of delicious mussels for only $14. Wide drinks selection. And the music is very good wink wink. Hard to complain, thank you for a good time”

“A cozy open spot at Royal Oak. Had a delicious flat white with coffee art of a swan. Nice open top area and was relatively busy.”

“Nice little place surrounded by lots of Asian restaurants. They serve different flavours of bubble tea, and the taste was great. We really enjoyed our drinks!”

“Today I ordered a takeaway mocha frappe which a man made and it was absolutely delicious I had to leave a review!! Additionally, I came here for an iced latte and again it was the best latte I have had from a coffee shop and left a lasting impression. Thanks a lot.”

“Very nice and clam atmosphere. Nice coffee. Good place to spend time. Must visit”

“I stop in here all the time for their elite bacon and egg breakfast wraps. Great coffee, great staff and loads of sweet treats if you’re that way inclined. Highly recommend to all. James Ashwin Kakapo Business Sales”

“Had experience like fine dinning restaurant. Foods look so nice and taste delicious. Good service Highly recommend Will be back for sure”

“Great venue and staff. A trek down some steep stairs but I've attended some great gigs here. Usually good sound. Toilets can be hard to access when packed and it can get very warm but I still find it a great spot.”

“Came here for breakfast with my partner. The inside looks great and the food is even better! There’s a menu and foods on display. I saw a falafel salad that I wanted but unfortunately it wasn’t vegan friendly. The chef came over to me to say she can make a vegan version from scratch. I really appreciated this and it was absolutely delicious. My partner got a chicken curry filo that he loved and we got two fresh apple juices. This all came to $41. A bargain if you ask me!”

“I had an amazing experience at this restaurant! As a vegetarian, it’s often hard to find good options in Auckland, but this place truly impressed me. The staff was incredibly kind and helpful—they even customized a pizza exactly to my liking, and it turned out absolutely delicious! The food was bursting with flavor, and we also tried a non-alcoholic cocktail that was super tasty and refreshing. Overall, it was a perfect day, and I’m so glad we chose to dine here. Highly recommend to anyone, especially fellow vegetarians!”

“From the moment you walk in Reign and Pour brings a solid upbeat and relaxed vibe. The staff are friendly and incredibly attentive. The food.... Oh my goodness, so good. I had the stuffed chicken which was so well balanced in terms of flavour profile. My partner had the steak and said "this is the best steak I've had in quite some time." To share we also grabbed the cauliflower bites which were perfectly salted and crispy. We'll be back for sure!”

“Walked in to have a drink on a sunny Sunday lunch - but also ended up ordering food from White and Wong’s. boa bun, dumplings, papaya salad and they were all absolutely delicious! Away from the louder restaurants further on the wharf but still with a nice chilled atmosphere. Waiter was friendly and attentive.”

“What a lovely place. From the moment we walked in we were made welcome and given a menu straight away. Our server was very attentive and makes a decent coffee too (definitely a bonus). The staff are so kind too - I witnessed 2 of them helping an older gentleman into his chair. The food is lovely and hot. On our most recent visit we had creamy mushrooms and a breakfast buttie. I loved how the house rosti was shaped like a birds nest. The house soda is also very refreshing. I am definitely going back.”

“The Paw Bar and Eatery is a fantastic place to come with family/friends/a date or even on your own! The twinkling lights with all the beautiful plants make you feel like you are in a tropical resort. The staff are an absolute gem- super friendly and quick! There is a lot of space to sit outdoor or indoors. They have great events such as trivia and live music. I hosted a staff party there and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the food and drinks. The doggy menu is also obviously a huge plus and they always have many board games. Sizzling skewers are now a new highlight, which you cannot find anywhere else in the hood! I highly recommend swinging by. Cheers!”

“I've been to this cafe a few times before, but I stopped coming because I felt like the portions were getting smaller and the staff seemed unenthusiastic. I recently heard it changed owners and wanted to check it out. I wasn't disappointed. The staff were very warm and friendly, the ingredients tasted fresh, and the portion size was generous—I usually can't finish a plate this big. Of course, this is a new start with the new ownership, and I hope they can keep it up. All in all, there are so many cafes in Auckland, and not every one makes you want to go back.”

“Great coffee and first place open downtown in early morning. Staff friendly.”

“Loved this cafe. Will go back next time I'm in Devonport”
