Cafe in Auckland

“I had a wonderful experience at British Isles Inn. From the moment we arrived, the owner made us feel genuinely welcome with their warm and friendly attitude. The food was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was inviting and cozy, making it the perfect place to relax and enjoy a meal. Highly recommend for anyone looking for great food paired with outstanding hospitality!”

“My flat white (that tasted great) made it to the table the same time I sat down. Food was fresh, well made and tasted great. Clean, modern cafe. Will eat there again when we're out that way.”

“What a beautiful location! We had high tea - the food, all made in house, was divine. The hot scones, made freshly for us, were light and fluffy and served with delicious jam and fresh cream. The tea was lovely, with bottomless refills of the tea pot. And there is something peaceful about looking over the garden, watching ducks and chickens foraging whilst sparrows gather for crumbs. The service was also wonderful, friendly but professional. I would thoroughly recommend a visit! N.B. There is other food apart from a high tea, and it looked wonderful!”

“Fantastic customer service and a wonderful experience every time my family has visited! More recently, the team went above and beyond by supporting our community through the donation of vouchers for our kindergarten. Huge thanks to Porcia and the team for their generosity and support!”

“Great coffee, tasty food, happy customers!”

“Superbly restored historic building in park-like grounds. Lovely cafe & arts display too!”

“Lovely morning wandering around looking at exhibitions. Had a go at rock painting, handy café on site for coffee and food”

“Favorite cafe in the area. Coffee is always good and cabinet food has never disappointed. Usually only 1 person working so expect to wait when busy, but it's worth it. Also the only place I know that has a half-caf on the menu (1 shot full caf, 1 shot decaf). Thanks for all the coffee and hugs from your giant bear!”

“What a great team. From Claire in the office to Mickey in the workshop the whole team was so helpful. Mickey called to discuss my machines fault and gave me options. They then fixed it very promptly and at a reasonable price. They even threw in a free bag of coffee beans. I have already recommended to others.”

“We got dinner and a couple of drinks each and WOW, this place absolutely exceeded my expectations. We were served by a super friendly lady, who seems to really care about this place and giving people a great experience. The food was outstanding. Huge portions! Steak cooked to perfection and the garlic bread was banging. We are very very happy we chose this place for our staycation and we will be back, thank you guys :)”

“Yum. Enjoyed a delightfully delicious fusion wonton soup. New to the menu and well worth it. Light, tasty and perfect for a rainy day or any day for that matter! Must admit we might have gotten some grandma special treatment but Craig always puts so much love into his food even when grandma's not ordering x”

“Come on Auckland! You guys need to come and support this great business! The beers are off the chart and the food is fantastic! I love a hazy IPA, each one was unique and delicious! There are over 30 different beers to choose from! The food was really good. I highly recommend the crispy butchers bites, the deep fried gherkins, the Korean cauliflower and the ChurBurger! That ChurBurger was……chur!! Bloody delicious!!! Not a big fan of shoestring fries (I like the proper chunky fries) but overall, fantastic beer and food…I highly recommend!”

“This place is such a gem! The owner was so lovely and thankfully held the kitchen open later to accommodate our delayed flight. We had the best meal in Auckland! Awesome setting and great vibes.”

“This place is really a hidden gem in Mount Eden. Coffee is amazing. Very friendly staff. Ambience is amazing with soothing music and sip of coffee. Must try Avo smash and Mini breakfast. Perfect avo smash and mini breakfast ever have.”

“This place has never failed to live up to my expectations. It’s a lovely place to come for a quick coffee and a slice while in the area.”

“This restaurant has the most freshly cooked meal’s without any preservatives and msg. Their Briyani was first class and my kid loved the cheese naan with lamb curry ❤️ Keshab was awesome with his hospitality and service towards customers even it’s my first time here this beautiful service and delicious food making up to visit this restaurant frequently in future. Thank you for the good food and service”

“Food looked great but we didn’t partake. This place has a really cool vibe but it is cozy. The outside spaces make it bigger. Great space for a bit of music or a drink and a bite.”

“2 happy family groups in place when I came in . All coffees doubles. Character filled. Great coffee and food. Found in Te,Atatu peninsula . Demolition Deli overlooks an interesting streetscape. Friendly big table and staff”

“Loved my dinner at Geeks on Sainsbury! The pork belly and kimchi soup were delicious, tasty and perfectly done. It was great to see they are dog-friendly too. The staff were amazing; super friendly despite having to deal with some rude customers. We will absolutely be back!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Vevo Cafe in Titirangi is the perfect spot for a sunny day adventure or a family outing. Start your day with a walk or let the kids enjoy the nearby park. Plan your visit to Vevo for some fresh air and delicious food. Explore Titirangi Beach, swing by the playground, and hike up to the lookout for stunning views. If the rain sets in, you can always enjoy your treats from the comfort of your car. The service at Vevo is immaculate, even on a busy Sunday morning. The staff are friendly and efficient, making every visit a pleasure. The coffee here is top-notch, consistently amazing and perfect for an outdoor adventure. I grabbed a takeaway and enjoyed a rib-eye bap with mozzarella cheese and the best caramel slice on the planet, paired with a latte. Remember to be mindful of the environment—never leave rubbish behind and respect the local wildlife. You might even have the pleasure of a Tui whistling nearby as you sip your coffee. Vevo Cafe is a gem in Titirangi, combining great food, excellent service, and a beautiful setting. Don't miss it!”

“Been here twice now and they're always so nice. The drinks are great price! I got Brown Sugar Mochi Milk Tea for $10. Comes with black sesame type mochi so yum!!”

“Such a nice and modern dining space. From the moment we walked in we were greeted with smiles and taken to a table. Ordering was prompt and not rushed. My husband has an onion intolerance, and the staff went over and beyond to confirm that onion powder would be okay before bring it out. The coffee was perfect. Will definitely be back when up next.”

“I had the best matcha ever from here they even let me try it to make sure I like it before it was sealed. The staff are so lovely I’ve told all my friends who like matcha to go there!”

“Jervois Rd Wine Bar + Kitchen delivered an exceptional dining experience that exceeded all expectations. From start to finish, everything was flawless. We started with the lemon pepper calamari, which was perfectly tender and seasoned to perfection. The truffle fries were indulgent and had just the right amount of truffle aroma, making them impossible to resist. The wagyu beef sliders were a highlight – juicy, flavorful, and served with a delightful balance of textures. The mains were equally impressive. The wagyu brisket was melt-in-your-mouth tender and packed with bold, rich flavors. The lamb cutlets were cooked to perfection, beautifully tender with a touch of smokiness. The goat cheese croquettes were a creamy, crispy delight that added a perfect complement to the meal. To top it all off, the pomegranate sour was a fantastic choice – expertly mixed, refreshing, and a great pairing for the food. Every dish was presented beautifully, and the flavors were nothing short of incredible. The service was warm and attentive, and the atmosphere of the bar was cozy and inviting. Jervois Rd Wine Bar + Kitchen is a true gem, and we can’t wait to return for another memorable dining experience! 5/5 stars. Highly recommend!”

“We had such a wonderful time at Catfe Mao! The staff are incredibly nice and took the time to tell us the stories behind each cat—you can really tell how much they care for these animals. The place is spotlessly clean, peaceful, and the cats are just adorable. My kids and I were so happy here. Also, a quick shoutout to their milk tea—it’s absolutely delicious! Highly recommend for cat lovers and families.”

“What a delight it was to eat at Morrell! The food was some of the best I’ve had in Auckland since moving here 3 years ago. Service was great and of course booking through First Table was seemless. Only thing I’d say that could’ve been better was the option to split the bill as there were 4 of us. But aside, top class experience! Thank you Morell team.”

“Very calm atmosphere, very friendly staff, good foods, coffee, liquor. Joe listens to my taste and chooses the best drink. Thank you for every single time. Come to enjoy your coffee and food with solo or with friends or family or business. Recommend this place!”

“2025: Another dine-in visit to Beaufort & Co in Oteha, and nearly a year later, the experience is still top class. Special mention to Olga—your warm manner and attention to customer care were truly appreciated. When we realised we’d missed out on one of the special doughnuts of the day (caramel gingerbread), Olga kindly arranged with the chef to create some alternative options for our takeaway order, going well above and beyond expectations. Huge thanks to the chef as well for making it happen. Our dine-in meals were served quickly, beautifully presented, and well-balanced in flavour. Portion sizes were just right, and our hot drinks were absolutely delicious. The takeaway packaging is next-level—loved the clear window so you can peek at what's inside. My friend said the scone was one of the yummiest she'd ever had. The doughnuts were rich and satisfying, with a thick cream that held its shape well. My daughter loved her bacon hash croissant and smoked salmon bagel. The pistachio croissant had a dense texture and probably would’ve been even better warmed up at home —something to keep in mind for next time. The “everything” slice was a bit much for our palates, but if you’re into fruit and chocolate combos, it’ll likely hit the spot. Highly recommend Beaufort & Co for both dine-in and takeaway if you're after a treat for the tastebuds. 2024: We just had breakfast at Beaufort & Co, and it was a top-tier experience from start to finish. Tiramisu Dessert Shake – 5/5: Everything we'd hoped for—creamy and subtle, with excellent presentation. The lady finger added a delightful crunchy texture. Passionfruit Spritzer – 5/5: Fresh, tangy, and bursting with real passionfruit flavour. Absolutely delicious. Mochaccino – 5/5: Perfect in flavour, temperature, and presentation. Smoked Salmon Beaufort Benne – 5/5: Faultless. Each ingredient was perfectly cooked and presented. The best Eggs Benedict we've had so far, with a perfect serving size. S'mores Waffles – 5/5: The quality and care put into this dish were evident. The waffles were crispy on the outside, light but moist on the inside. The berry compote was delicious, and the chocolate mascarpone was decadent with a smooth texture. The homemade marshmallow squares with a subtle berry jelly layer at the bottom were the cherry on top—a true chef's kiss. The service was A++, with lovely staff who made us feel welcome. The seating was comfortable, the décor clean and bright, and the music—a mix of classic hits—was the perfect way to start the day. 100% recommend this place! 2023: Amazing quality and tasty food. Excellent set up and presentation. Gets quite busy because of this but booking a table ahead of time will see you seated comfortably without any issues. They have a text line you can pre-order from (check FB) and an excellent takeaway service too.”

“On the corner of onehunga mall and church. Alfresco opposite St Peter’s you too can enjoy excellent food from a well practiced champion. Totally worth the wait we found Urban lists review to be accurate and will be back!”
