Food establishment in Auckland

“The grocery store was very clean and organized, everything was easy to find.”

“Dropped in for the $10 lunch. It was simple, but very tasty and exceptional value - rice, omelet, choice of a vegetable dish. Really good value for money. I don't know many places where you can feed yourself for $10 for lunch. Cute interior design. Lots of space for groups of all sizes and people dining alone. A bunch of people turned up after us, so looks popular. The menu looks great, will come back another time to try it.”

“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 wonderful place! Their restaurant food is amazing, with great portion sizes! Out of all 4 pictured meals, I can’t say I have a favourite because they were all great. They also have a great selection of cabinet food. The restaurant and cabinet food is naturally a little bit pricey but I am definitely not complaining! The only thing for me was that the iced matcha was very watered down with milk, and therefore was very milky which wasn’t the best. Also all the menus online need updating! They’re really busy most of the time (we were booked in at 11am) and the wait time for our meals and drink took about an hour, but they have a sign outside warning you about the wait time during peak hours. Their service is also really good, most especially from Mike who is just lovely and extremely friendly, and Julian who is nice also very friendly. Do I even have to talk about the atmosphere? I would especially recommend booking a table outside for a nice view out back. The cafe is situated right in the park in a beautiful Homestead and has a lovely little art gallery and shop. I would 100% recommend coming here!”

“Always great food and amazing coffee! The staff are usually so lovely and make the place feel really welcoming. One of my favourite spots to stop by. ☕✨”

“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.”

“This is the best pizza I've had in a long time.. "delicious," "fresh," "flavorful," "cooked to perfection," and "great service".. I m really impressed with the quality of the ingredients.”

“Popped in to Savoury Sweet Cafe for a little sausage roll and a flat white and was very impressed. Loads of other great food in their cabinet and the parking was available right outside. Highly recommend to all. James Ashwin Kakapo Business Sales”

“Raw fish on toast was to die for! Fish was fresh, lovely flavour and the bread wasn’t too hard to cut through! Iced latte (not pictured) was also delicious. Excited to try this little spot the next time I’m in Auckland.”

“We loved it here; the atmosphere, the wonderful service and, of course, the food.”

“I recently placed a review for ONE Onehunga after visiting with my wife, for brunch, she had previously been there and had a great experience...I had a less than great meal and service. In reply to that review the asked me to give them another chance..we did today. The difference was night and day, where to start....the tea was fantastic and they had sweetener ( none last time). The big breakfast ( One breakfast) was much improved, seasoned mushroom and tomatoes, great eggs, perfect lightly cooked bacon. The service was quick, polite and professional. Now the small things....there were staff cleaning, not just tables but other surfaces when not busy, fresh flowers on the tables, the owner training the staff in quite periods....very impressive. I am really pleased to have been proven wrong in regard to my previous review and thank you to the owners for their pleasant reply to that review and the conversation I had with one of the owners this morning.”

“Delicious flat whites. They are a coffee speciality shop and always deliver on good coffee. Environment is pleasant to be within. The coffee is a little bit on the expensive side, but worth the money! Will be back :)”

“They had gluten free vegan pancakes which is a big deal and they are AMAZING”

“I recently discovered Lakdiv supermarket and I'm so glad I did ! If you're craving authentic Sri Lankan food, this is the place to go.The variety of products they offer is amazing, from spices to snacks, rice,and even traditional sweet.The quality is top- notch, and I can always count on thrm to have everything I need for cooking my favorite Sri Lankan dishes at home. The store is well organized, and the staff is friendly and always to help.highly recommend this place to anyone looking to bring a taste of Sri Lanka into their kitchen.I'll definitely be coming back!”

“Great coffee! Amazing selection of food too. Brilliant range of fresh bakery delights including pies, donuts, fresh fruit salads. I had a Brisket, jalapeno mozzarella bap, biscoff donut and custard square with my FW coffee - spectacular!”

“Best wine tasting I've been to - the staff is incredibly knowledgable and I learned a ton! Not to mention their wines taste great. I can't compare this winery to any of the others on Waiheke as it was the only one we were able to go to after our flight was cancelled, causing a delayed start to our day. The manager, Rory, was incredibly understanding with our potential lateness. Staff was attentive during our time with them, food was delicious, beautiful scenery. Will definitely return if we're able to make it back to Waiheke someday! Also they have a very cute winery dog :)”

“Two years ago, Spiga was the place where we had our first date. Now, as a married couple, we returned for lunch, and it was just as wonderful as we remembered. The cozy atmosphere, delicious food, and exceptional service made it a truly special experience. Fungi Pizza was absolutely incredible—hands down the best fungi pizza in Auckland! The crust was perfectly crispy, and the mushrooms were so fresh and flavorful. We were so impressed that we asked the staff where they sourced their mushrooms. They were incredibly friendly and took the time to explain everything in detail, which made the experience even more enjoyable. We can’t wait to come back and create more beautiful memories here.”

“One of the absolute best restaurants in Auckland serving kebabs. Owners obviously very passionate about hospitality & make the establishment a very nice place to visit to enjoy a meal. Their food is delicious, presented beautifully, made from beautiful fresh ingredients. A asset to the surrounding area. Highly recommended!:)”

“Tasty Kebab on Stoddard Road Mt Roskill was very good! It was not your traditional doner kebab but the way the mixed kebab was created with the addition of mint chilli sauce was great - nice flavours especially the pleasant chilli taste! Reasonably priced and filling.”

“Popped into this very sweet cafe very early in the morning! There are plenty of manly regulars popping in and out and I can see why! They have a solid menu and good vibes.”

“Delicious food, generous portion and a very very kind and sincere owner who serves with care, ensuring patrons are comfortable and relaxed in the restaurant. Had dinner there in June 2025 and for 1 hr, I watch the numerous customers who dined in or took out. Service is prompt and considerate. No wonder there were so many customers. Owner even recommended tourist spots and tips for good photos. Service left a lasting impression, hence I had to leave a positive note though was so busy after my last visit as a tourist to Pukekohe. Highly recommended!”

“Cambodian Takeaways in Avondale is a very good takeaway! I brought a cheeseburger, hot chips and potato fritters - all-round good food! The cheeseburger was good but it was light on cheese and came with beetroot and carrots which I'm not used to in a burger! But it was still nice to eat, and the chips and fritters were good too! Friendly service and atmosphere could have been better though. I'll be back!”

“Tikka n Talk was close to our hotel and we walked here expecting to get some lamb dishes. While talking with Ishan, he highly recommended the chicken tikka with naan and a chicken biryani if we wanted a rice dish. We also got a mango and rose lassi. He described the dishes so deliciously we had to get it! It was the best chicken tikka I’ve ever had in my life and Im saying that growing up in the San Francisco bay where theres a large amount of indian restaurants. Definitely ask for Ishans recommendation when you stop by!”

“Really nice cooked breakfast. It took a little while to arrive but that was because it was cooked from scratch with care and attention. The quality of the food and ingredients was really good. The place itself is pretty bare and basic, but also spotlessly clean. The owner was happy for me to move a table outside next time I go so I can bring my dog along. I went to the Columbus Cafe up the road the weekend before and was really disappointed with a similar breakfast. If your looking for a nice breakfast and good coffee from a friendly host go here. Especially go here over Columbus.”

“Fresh and Delicious fish. I was lucky to be there when there wasn’t a queue. Owners were so friendly and welcoming, they took time to explain the types of fish available that day. I ordered two portions of orange roughy deep fried in crumbs, absolutely delicious. Will definitely visit when I’m back.”

“This is hands down the best sushi in town. Some sushi is pre-made otherwise you order and it is made fresh. The price is so good and the staff are so helpful!! Highly recommend.”
