Coffee house in Dunedin

“This is a lovely cosy cafe serving quality traditional fare and really good, actually hot, coffee. An oasis in Dunedin city centre. I highly recommend Rembrandt cafe.”

Tokyo House Restaurant favours a simple, bistro-style line-up with clear, tidy flavours. Plates offer plenty without tipping heavy. Front‑of‑house runs with calm, helpful energy. Packaging keeps things crisp on arrival.

“Absolutely beautiful coffee! Delightful little shop. Jared is very down to earth and great to have a chat too over way too may coffee's lol”

“I came late and was still welcomed. The lady went out of her way to accommodate me and I had 2 lovely biscuits. Not oversized or over priced, just right and super delicious. Good coffee too.”

“Love this cafe, great bakeries and had a satisfying flat white, and a nice taste of SO and their house blend. Thanks for the warm hospitality.”

“Am a big fan of coffee and I don’t like coffee at most of the places :/ but here at Grid”s The best coffee I found in NZ, awesome people specially the guy with long hair (didn’t get to ask his name). Definitely have to be back :)”

“Fabulous coffee and food! Highly recommend the filter coffee, check what’s on offer each day as it changes, I had a very nice single origin Ethiopian. Espresso also great. And, very tasty food, we had breakfast 3 days in a row and can recommend the granola, also had poached eggs and bacon with a house made rosti in place of bread to make it gluten free (gf bread also an option). Staff are super helpful and friendly :)”

South Dunedin Satay House leans into a kebab and pita approach with no fuss. A sensible spend for the quality. Service stays present without fuss. Music and pace keep a casual tone. Portions make for...

“Great staff, the little food I had was delicious and the coffee was good”

“Almond croissant, potato salad, date scone”

“Great place for a cup of coffee or hot meals. Best scones l have ever eaten. Sandwiches is delicious and price is very reasonable. Very friendly and helpful staffs. No wonder there are so many regular customers. Must go.”

“We had such a great time at the cafe! Abraham was incredibly friendly and helpful. He made us feel so welcome from the moment we walked in. Highly recommend this place for both the food and the amazing service!”

“Went into this cafe and I was welcomed by a friendly face straight away. Quick service and the bene bagel and mocha were great. Nice music playing gives a relaxing atmosphere. Definitely will come back again.”

“I always grab my matcha latte from here. It’s my little pre-workout ritual before heading to the gym! The staff here are amazing and always so friendly. One time I came in totally distracted and couldn’t remember my order (I always get the same thing), and the kind barista said, “almond milk matcha latte?”. Ever since then he just asks, “the usual?” and makes it perfect each time. It’s small gestures like that that make the experience so special. Great matcha, even better service!”

“Great coffee and service - can't beat it!”

“Such a cute little cafe, all vegan. I got the mac n cheese burrito with gherkins and a custard creme doughnut, my partner got the jalapeno cheese rolls and a biscoff cookie- all were so so tasty and affordable. If we lived in Dunedin, we would be here every lunch break. Plus free coffee (with orders over $10) Server is also so lovely, would highly recommend”

“Love Beam Me Up, such a treat to have takeaway at the local gardens. The Darth Bacon has been my go-to for the last 3 trips, and I'm excited to go back for another taste soon. Perfect for a light lunch while exploring Dunedin.”

“Best coffee in town... Best selection of beans to take away. Ground to your prefence. Highly recommend a visit.”

“RdC is always a pleasure but today the sandwiches were amazing!! Coffee good, sunshine great. Prices extremely good for cafés in town.”

“good coffee, good vibes, great service. been there twice now and will definitely go again while i'm in dunedin.”

“OUTSTANDING food and coffee ...my wife and I shared a blueberry gluten-free muffin ... unconditionally, the Bru Cafe has refined the art of baking to a Michelin standard ... the gluten-free muffin was the BEST we've ever had.”

“I thought I knew delicious pies until I went to Spelt Bakery. I got the Chicken, Chutney and Brie pie and it feels as if my eyes have been opened. Thank you Spelt, this was an honour.”

“exceptional cafe - great coffee and delicious interesting food. Was almost impossible to decide what to order because I wanted the whole menu… will just have to visit again!”

“I found they made authentic desserts and visited again with my partner. I was stunned once more! The sandwich was massive and full of fresh ingredients. The salami, parsleys, ham, cheese, baby spinaches and handmade bread! The best ever! I couldn't even finish it over there and fetched it for dinner as well. When it comes to dessert, I've tried cardamom roll, pan au chocola, brown butter cookie, mascapone chocolate tart. None of them disappointed me. Every single thing was authentic. You can see different range whenever you visit then you can't be sick of their menu. Especially, brown butter cookies, it's fabulous when you have it a bit cool. The butter flavour is flooring at every bite and half the cookie is chocolate. Highly recommended and will definitely visit again”

“Staff were friendly & answered our questions patiently. Coffee was delightful! We loved it, both the espresso & the milk were of great quality. Personally I loved my Mexican Iced Coffee — it was unique & delicious. Would recommend this place! It’s decently affordable too.”

On the plate at ADJØ, the idea is coffee-and-cabinet and well executed. Cabinet bakes and slices round out the stop. A family‑friendly feel comes through naturally. Front‑of‑house runs with calm, helpful energy.

At Tuppence Cafe, the menu stays coffee-and-cabinet, served with an easygoing pace. A coastal backdrop rounds out the stop. Value feels fair for the spread. Front‑of‑house runs with calm, helpful energy.
