Coffee house in Dunedin

“Good place to eat with delicious bread, even sushi! JUST I hope to get an extra large size of coffee.. haha..”

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.

“Great coffee and delicious food. Best selection of cabinet food we have seen in awhile.”

“I really enjoyed the cheese and mustard scones, they are Devine 10/10.”

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.

At Bowey's Pool Lounge & Bar, the menu stays simple, bistro-style, served with an easygoing pace. Portions are generous yet well judged. Music and pace keep a casual tone. Service stays present without fuss.

“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!”

“A large portion with bargaining prize. Very tasty, very appetising. Gorgeous setting, cosy plants. And most importantly, AMAZING FOOD.”

“Roast vege salad is totally amazing... You guys have to try it... It is very tasty... The coffee is also nice...”

“Found our way here with a random stop while checking out the local area. Grabbed coffee and googled the reviews. Decided to try food, very reasonable prices compared to cafs in the city but there was no compromise on quality. Wicked stoked we came here, this place is awesome. Ginger slice was good but tan slice was the better. Thanks heaps.”

On the plate at Potpourri Vegetarian Cafe, the idea is coffee-and-cabinet and well executed. Outdoors works well when the weather plays along. Meat‑free options are woven into the menu. Pricing lines up with the offer.

“My Beautiful Daughter bought me here for Father’s Day (Sat). Never been here before one of the best mouse traps I’ve ever eaten and I eat a few but a stunning gourmet pie (Corned Beef) and I hope when you visit it’s still only eight dollars unbelievable value. Mosgiel it’s lucky to have such quality food in a cafe. DJ”

“The best coffee ever I have. Thanks a lot Staff very nice and kindly. The vibes so warmly and lovey.”

“Coffee & Food --- both 10 out of 10. Coffee is not only delicious, it is also well presented(golden cream color & shape well drawn). I had toast sandwich today with up to 3 fillings only cost me $8! So delicious & great value for money. Let alone eating inside the most beautiful building of Dunedin so much like some of the arty buildings in lower Manhattan New York city. Love this place & will become my regular cafe now”

“The place was recommended by a fellow backpacker so i'd thought i'll come by to take a look. Not a big place but does have both indoor and outdoors sitting. Everyone's okie to share the table. Minimalistically decorated. Variety on the menu. I was in a dilemma on choosing what to eat and the owner shared what he preferred which wasnt the most expensive thing off the menu. Haha. Shows the love he has for the food and people than the profit. Awesome. I had Hash: its pulled pork and taters.. very well done, not overly salty. Well prepared. Hot chocolate, theres the cadbury and whittakers options. Always nice to know there's a choice. :) Street parking. Help urself to the water, by the counter. All in all, an enjoyable brunch out.”

“Just stopped in and got a coffee! Best coffee I have had in Dunedin by far! Lovely warm nice little cafe. Very inviting. Loved it”

“Beautifullly situated cafe ! - the most lovely view of rhe Beach and waterfront. Could sit for hours but had eaten the steak, bacon pie too quickly! It's a cosy environment and best seats at definitely away from the door, especially on cold days! Although the owners were quick to close the door when someone forgot to close it. The service was superb!”

EBB-CAFE leans into a coffee-and-cabinet approach with no fuss. Eggs land on point and toast stays crisp. Portions are generous yet well judged. Front‑of‑house runs with calm, helpful energy. Coffee p...

“Nice setting for a meal, beautiful gardens to go wander around and spend some time with family. Food was superb, I think they didn't had their regular front of house team on as service was a little unsure of themselves. The brisket was top notch and filling. Good size portion for the price.”

“Good atmosphere! A great spot for a casual team meetup, hanging out with friends or even a date night! The cafe gets pretty packed after 6pm. Paid parking available right next door and on the roadside”

“This cafe is all heart. I came as a recommendation and could not resist coming back. The food, the atmosphere and the service was just top drawer. I highly recommend Helen and her team as a core part of the Cafe culture here in Dunedin. I so wish they were in Wellington.”

The Perc Cafe favours a coffee-and-cabinet line-up with clear, tidy flavours. Outdoors works well when the weather plays along. Pricing lines up with the offer. Eggs land on point and toast stays crisp.

“Very great place for outing with friends or family. Good good , great service and there are in door outdoor tables. Staff was very friendly and great. Food was quick and tasty. After lunch we went for a walk around Wal's. Plenty of park. Not far from Dunedin. And recommends for family with kids.”

“Such a cool cafe! Loved the artistic approach and can visualise how awesome it would be to have an event there. I only got a cappuccino as I was exploring more of the city but it was a great cappuccino at that! Highly recommend coming to Maggie’s for your next cup of coffee!”

“A beautiful plant nursery and garden center with an on-site coffee shop – perfect for a visit any time of the day. They offer a great selection of rare and exotic plants alongside a wide range of garden tools and outdoor décor. The layout is spacious, with ample parking and easy access, making it a stress-free stop. Just across the parking lot, there’s a large pet store with plenty to explore. A wonderful destination for gardeners, plant lovers, and families alike.”

“PRECINCT cafe at Otago Museum is my regular place to catch up with colleagues and friends over coffee. Today, I had jasmine lime tea, which was incredibly refreshing and organic, instead of a tea bag. I love their gluten-free carrot cake. The staff were attentive and friendly as usual and went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Overall, Precinct Café offers an exceptional dining/coffee experience that I highly recommend to anyone visiting Dunedin.”

“Always a pleasant experience when shopping here. Great staff, brilliant prices and the food is always divine. Dangerous location for over spending and over eating.. but absolutely no complaints!”

Blueskin Gallery favours a classic fish-and-chips line-up with clear, tidy flavours. Desserts close the meal with familiar comfort. Buns hold well and patties land juicy. Fish is cooked to a clean crunch and chips stay tidy.

“Really good food, but very small portions for the price. Look, I don't mind paying a lot of money for good food, but giving an amazing bene with one piece of bread instead of two saves you $0.10 and takes away my full enjoyment of the meal. I would be posting a 5 star review if I just received two pieces of bread.”

Greenland's Cafe & Restaurant leans into a classic fish-and-chips approach with no fuss. Grill work shows a clean sear and rested meats. Portions are generous yet well judged. Eggs land on point and toast stays crisp.
