Food establishment in New Zealand

“Cozy and busy but very good and the service can be quick if you are just getting from the cabinet. Latte was perfect. The pancakes were a delight! There was also a plate of delicious French toast but I didn't get a photo”

“Amazing staff and amazing coffees. I went in with my team’s orders, about 8 coffees and other sweet treats. They whipped up the coffee order in minutes. And the cabinet food was delicious. They got my matcha order perfectly! Going to be regular here now. Thanks for your quick and lovely service ❤️”

“Best sushi in town. Great service every time. Delicious and beautiful sushi with a good range of variety. It's pricey for sure but the quality speaks for itself.”

“Great coffee and here’s what’s left of my delicious, huge, date and orange scone! Street-side dining.”

“Get some kai and helping others at the same time. And I won’t lie that getting a meal for $5 in 2024 is a big draw card. There’s also some lovely cabinet food as well.”

“Needed brandy for Christmas puddings..helpful service .shop clean and tidy.”

“I had a lovely young fellow by the name of callum help me find all my items I needed and proceeded to help me carry them to my car. The young man helped restore my faith in the younger generations 10/10 thank you callum.”

“Been here twice now and they're always so nice. The drinks are great price! I got Brown Sugar Mochi Milk Tea for $10. Comes with black sesame type mochi so yum!!”

“I had the best matcha ever from here they even let me try it to make sure I like it before it was sealed. The staff are so lovely I’ve told all my friends who like matcha to go there!”

“I've never been served coffee so quickly! It was fantastic and the 30 second interaction with the barista was amazing - such fantastic service and really set the tone for a great day. Highly recommended!”

“Excellent food, coffee not too hot and not too warm. Even though the cat was shy - welcome addition for this small cafe. Good prices too, and fills my belly. 100% will be back !!”

“Very calm atmosphere, very friendly staff, good foods, coffee, liquor. Joe listens to my taste and chooses the best drink. Thank you for every single time. Come to enjoy your coffee and food with solo or with friends or family or business. Recommend this place!”

“Never seen fried chicken eggs Benedict on any menu before, so I has to try it. The fried chicken here is very good and the eggs were poached well. The Best Ugly bagel with cream cheese and salmon was also very good. I didn't ask what roast the coffee was but it was rich and creamy. I recommend taking the short drive out from the normal cafe areas of central Auckland for a great value breakfast.”

“Absolutely loved our visit! The staff were incredibly welcoming and friendly — we felt right at home as soon as we walked in. The waffle was amazing — perfectly crispy on the outside and full of flavour. The real fruit ice cream was so fresh and delicious too! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a sweet treat and great service!”

“Beautiful food with huge range of gluten free options. The Korean fried chicken is the best I’ve had - will be back soon. Unsure what the other recent reviews are on about - very good value and the staff clearly put a lot of effort into presentation too.”

“Delicious big breakfast! Possibly the best I’ve had on the shore! It came with everything I’d want on a breakfast with homemade baked beans, a potato rosti, perfectly cooked eggs, bacon, mushrooms, tasty sausages and just overall amazing! My friend got the smashed avomamae, panna cotta muesli and orange juice which came together as one dish, for anybody who can’t decide between sweet and savoury! Would definitely recommend KARA! Friendly table service!”

“Had and americano and avocado salmon sourdough. Coffee a little sour but the salmon avocado was absolutely delicious! I will definitely be back for more very very soon as my friend just bought an apartment upstairs! Service: 5/5 Food Quality: 5/5 Drink Quality: 4/5 Environment: 4/5 Presentation: 5/5 Price per person: $15-$20”

“Fantastic little cafe with delicious cabinet and menu options! Tried the matcha strawberry latte, early grey basque cheesecake, and the HK French toast. All were delicious and drool worthy. They look AND taste amazing (which can be hard to find). Really want to go again to try more of their menu! The staff and owners are very warm, welcoming, friendly and cheerful. There were so many locals that swung by for their usual orders and the team were tuned in. Knew the regular orders, continued conversations from when they last saw them, so just some really genuine people. Also dog friendly, which is my personal favourite point!”

“The real thing! Davenport deli cafe is unpretentious but feels like an old Europe cafe. The coffee (latte in a glass) was exquisite and the blueberry cheese cake one of the best I've had - Vienna move over! The setting across from the art deco Devonia bldg with a choice of sidewalk or breezy inside seating adds to the experience. Head for the cafe as soon as you get off the ferry; a three minute walk. Oh I also picked up a frittata to take away - two kinds available: ham or veggie great value or try the quiche: spinach + feta or bacon and egg.”

“Very well stocked. Plenty of parking. Nice alternative to busy supermarkets.”

“A good experience in every sense. The pies are master pieces. They even have an award. My flat white was strong enough to be one of the best”

“First time ordering from here and wow. Delicious sushi, beautiful platters, friendly service and good price range too. Will definitely be back highly recommend. Thank you.”

“Gorgeous spot tucked on the top end of town. I can honestly the best sushi I’ve had in New Zealand and even rivalling tastes from my travels to Japan. Pricing was well and truly fair for the quality and the staff there were so joyful. Can’t wait to come back ❤️”

“This is a special place to enjoy a delicious French-style galette. It's so high quality. They also have a good selection of pastries, so I recommend using them as a café. They have a wide range of menus, and I think you will enjoy any style.”

“Attentive customer service and wonderful food! We enjoyed the kebab Biriyani the most, it was delicious!”

“Great new little Vietnamese place recently opened.. Food and taste was awesome and the pricing very good... Staff were friendly and we will be back again. Very happy to have a local Vietnamese restaurant close by. They are not on uber eats yet.”

“Huge bucket of beef noodles soup, lean beef, very nice, better than I expected. Chicken and mushrooms dumplings are very nice. Will go back and try more of other dishes. Thanks.”

“Just moved to the area and have visited this roast shop two nights in a row now.. best roast shop in Auckland easily in my personal opinion. the way the lady was cutting the fine selected meats had me in a daze while waiting in line and delivered with flavour when devoured. Keep up the good hustle”

“Most likely the BEST sushi restaurant! When I went there face-to-face, the staff greeted me with a smile and "Hello!". I knew I was gonna have a HUGE tummy after my dinner. Me and my family go here most likely every night! When I asked for tuna sushi without avocados, (I hate avocados don't ask me why.) After 1 minute, I got my order. Fast service! Before I left, I told them I would give them a 5-star rating, which I did! TYSM!!”

“This place serves Western food and drinks as well as Vietnamese dishes with northern Vietnamese flavors. The food here suits my taste. Delicious! The drinks are also great. They decorate the cozy space, look neat and clean. Friendly and helpful service. Thank you! I will be back.”
