“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.”

“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.”

“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.”

“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!”

“We were in search of some of Wellington’s best cheese scones! I think this is definitely up there. Soft cheesy goodness heated up in a sandwich press to ensure it doesn’t go soggy/rubbery. You can get a larger one, or smaller ones for slightly less. Absolutely delicious cheese scones, wish I could eat it all over again! Pravda has some serious competition! El porteno also make a delicious hot choco which is a great price!”

“Visiting the city and found an excellent spot for exceptional coffee. On a sunny day, the best place to enjoy it is the outdoor terrace upstairs - quieter, more spacious, and refreshingly open, perfect for a leisurely breakfast and long conversations. The service is warm, welcoming, almost joyous, with staff who appear genuinely enthusiastic, accommodating, and efficient. Though the space is compact, the atmosphere is full of heart. Had a very lovely experience here. Thanks Frank’s and Wellington!”

“The thw scrambled eggs with salmon roe were delightful. The chives, salty pops of the roe paired perfectly with the koulouri (similar to a Greek bagel). This atmosphere was homey yet sophisticated.”

“I had the tonkatsu special, and was really impressed by the pork. It was sliced around 2cm thick, so retained a lot of juices and allowed you to really taste the pork. The coating was thin and crispy, fried perfectly. Partner enjoyed the salmon gnocchi, and was very impressed by the dessert special - a sake panna cotta. If we lived closer we would definitely come more often!”

“This is such a charming little café. The service was fantastic and the food was delicious. We went to try their WOAP burger which was by far the best we had during the event. We'll definitely be going back.”

“I wish I had opportunity to pass through Lincoln more in order to eat here more! Always my stop after a skate from Wigram on the Lil River Trail. No menu items available by the time I get there but even their cupboard food and definitely their coffee provide such comfort and happiness. I managed to try their soup too and that was super delish!”

“Have eaten here many times and it’s great every time. I love how I am able to bring my dog inside as it’s dog friendly here! Food is always amazing and their smoothies are delicious. Service is always friendly, Definitely recommend coming here!”

“My best friend and I came to celebrate my birthday over brunch. Lovely lady at the counter was very accommodating and welcomed us with her beautiful smile. The food was delicious!! The portion sizes are perfect and well presented. This is definitely one of my favourite Cafe's I've been to in a very, very long time. Even the coffee was great!! 5 stars all around for me. Thanks to the chef for coming to check on us and if we enjoyed our meals. Our plates were empty - the answer is a definite Yes, we did :)”

“Amazing service and quality always get a really good service I visit this place all the time 10 out of 10”

“This place has such a good vibe. The owner and staff are so warm and friendly and the food is sensational. I had the chilli scrambled eggs today and it was an AMAZING dish. Coffee always epic. A fave spot for sure.”

“5 stars for all categories. The staff are lovely and greet you so warmly you feel like you’re a local from the get go. If the gnocchi is any indication on how the food is, you’re in for a 10/10 meal. It’s such a beautiful spot.”

“What a great café! Wonderful atmosphere, delicious and nutritious food options and excellent coffee. I chose the chicken sandwich which they toasted lightly for me. A long black and slice of heavenly Lime Coconut cake finished what was a delightful lunch! A blackboard menu for breakfast options is available alongside the well-stocked cabinet which offers salad and vegetarian selections as well. Friendly staff and a loyalty programme make this café a must when in Te Puke!”

“Stunning coffee, and walnut, apple and custard muffin. It's always a good visit here. Lovely service, fresh Kai, great coffee! 2nd pic is a coconut hot chocolateb for my friend. I might try that next time!”

“First time here and will definitely be back as the food is nice and fresh and the staff are friendly. They also have a great selection of gluten free items. Love the wide open spaces, the seating, and the general vibe.”

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

“What a terrific Saturday afternoon. The sun is shining and shining bright on my new favourite little cafe on the harbour. The service was truly impeccable and certainly was welcoming. My dear friends and I were served by a lovely young lady Janaiyah who suggested the perfect meal to satisfy my taste buds. I am truly grateful for an incredible experience that I will reflect on with joy.”

“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!”

“Friendly and attentive staff. Delicious food. Excellent coffee and reasonably priced. Love this great little neighbourhood gem ❤️”

“Super yummy food, friendly service, and reasonably priced! Construction sounds and smells nearby dampened the outside atmosphere but was no fault of the Cafe. Will definitely be back!”

“Great local bakery/cafe that's been around for many many years. Jalapeno steak pie was delicious. Coffee is a little light. Cheese scone is not bad. There's lots of options to choose from. They sell out of the chicken drums early, so we missed out today :(”

“Sarah and her staff are very welcoming, personable and super friendly and helpful. They get to know their customers needs which is rare in some Cafes. The Chefs cook great tasting meals. The food is always delicious! Coffee, 5-Stars”

“I absolutely love it at 2Spoons, the gluten free savoury muffins and freshly baked cinnamon brioche are to die for. They make great coffee too. The staff are really friendly and accommodating.”

“Just popped in here for a late breakfast. Who knew oatmeal could be such a work of art! Delicious and a pleasure to the senses on multiple levels. My wife had the smashed avocado with feta and humus on sourdough toast which she also loved.”

“Just stopped in to try coffee and check out food - so good! Great service and quick wait. Coffee amazing! Good selection of food and prices. Love the seating and old school stools.”
