Morover the crust of the pizza are really good not flat like other dominos and the toppings are really good and generous. Keep it up whole dominos team”

“I’ve had lunch a few times here recently (my apartment is a few hundred metres away). Both times the food has been good quality cafe-style fare, and prices are reasonable for the post-COVID environment. I like the place and food and expect to eat here two to three times a fortnight. Happy to recommend to locals, people visiting Central Park for business, and anyone else who doesn’t have small noisy offspring.”

“I've been here on every visit to Auckland, lots of seating. The menu is extensive. I love hot curries so always order indian hot, they were almost spot on but I feel they weakened the spice level. The flavour of the curries are great nice sized portions too.”

“Great food, great service. There’s a coffee loyalty scheme so get your card stamped and leave it there so you don’t forget next time ;)”

“Came here for opening on Saturday and we were blown away by the experience! Very happy with what Bruce and Leanne have done and an absolute testament to you both! Friendly service, food quality was excellent - drinks prices even more so too!”

“Where to start. Easily my favourite Indian in Auckland. Great food, amazing prices, close to the central city where I live. It's unassuming brilliance, talking through its great food. The owners have a clear passion for traditional Southern Indian food, and it shows. Completely and absolutely recommended.”

“I had a lovely experience at Cornwell Park Cafe! The coffee was rich and smooth, brewed perfectly – just the right balance of strength and flavor to start the day. I also tried their avocado toast with bread, and it was fresh, vibrant, and satisfying. The avocado was creamy and well-seasoned, sitting on nicely toasted bread that had a great crunch. The presentation was simple yet inviting, and the overall vibe of the cafe was cozy and relaxed. A great spot to enjoy a quiet breakfast or catch up with a friend. Definitely recommend if you’re in the area!”

“I had my 21st birthday party at Stonefields Public House and it was absolutely amazing! When I started planning months ago, the staff were so friendly and helpful when I came in to ask about hosting a 21st. The function space on the terrace was beautiful and could fit a large number of people. Their minimum spend for functions was so reasonable. I organised the catering and logistics over email, and they were so helpful and made the process of selecting food and drinks so easy. On the night they were so amazing, they helped us set up the space, the service was amazing, the food was delicious, and the drinks were amazing. We had our own bar in the space which was so cute. They were so accommodating with what we wanted. I made a playlist that they played over the speakers in the function space, and set up a photo slideshow to show on the TVs in the space as well. Honestly, I had the best 21st ever and they are the reason for it! 6 stars out of 5!!!”

“The food here is amazing and my favourite dish was the crispy wonton, very flavorful! Love the cosy and warm ambience. The servers were friendly. Happy customer and will definitely be back again!”

“Me and my fiance always come here quite often because of how delicious and amusing their food is! Their service is quick, straight to the point and top notch, I must say that one of their staff by the name of Zahraa has been an amazing team member and has shown her speedy and outstanding mind service, she is really what this establishment is all about! As for the establishment itself, it is clean and tidy and has many decent friendly customers who do interact with each other without causing any scene or problems. Overall, thanks for the decent food, service and to Zahraa for making it even better! I do apologize for not adding the remainder of the food we had but you must try!!!”

“always proving the goods! the line out the door during semester says it all, if you can time your visit to avoid lines you.might like to. the staff are super friendly and always provide smiles and a wave hello especially if you are a regular. they also do amazing coffee!!!”

“Enjoy a delicious breakfast in the lap on nature with greenery all around. Perfect place to sip a coffee after a good walk in the Auckland domain.”

“Looking for a breakfast place around takapuna after a pedia visit and tried Leaf & Loaf. Overall experience is excellent and lively, friendly staff. My fussy little one loved the blueberry pancakes. The rest of the food are awesome. Though I prefer boiling hot coffee but with the weather, it's acceptable food gets a little cold quicker. Highly recommend this place.”
