Cafe in Tauranga

“Been here a few times with my fiance now, the place is so chill and the staff are friendly and chatty. Food is dynamite!!! And the bottomless brunch is such good value for money. My fiance and I combined had 4x pints of lager, a beef nachos, tacos, chicken bites & jalapeño poppers... All for under $100 Leaving with a very full tummy and happy with our chill night every time!”

“We went here for lunch. Enjoyed it so much we went back for dinner. That's how good the place id”

“Staying in our motorhome we must say we were impressed. From the check ✅ in, with Kirsten, and the advice and help we received from the start. A beautiful Holiday Park with everything so clean and tidy. The playground too, is well thought out for childrens pleasure during their stay. Very handy to the beach and rolling surf, our two small dogs were in heaven when we all went down to the sand. It is fantastic that the dogs are allowed to be with us on holiday during the off season. The showers were nice and hot water aplenty. A friendly little bunny was not at all worried about two highly excited dogs because it sat just outside their wire fenced yard and teased them. In all a great place to stay and we will be back. Thank you. Laurie and Carol”

“Came to Matamata with family, who are very picky eaters. When you walk in, the restaurant is split into a kebab shop portion and proper restaurant with double height ceiling with soft ambient lighting. Staff service was very polite, respectful and attentive. We ordered 9 dishes from chicken, to mussells to the vege platter. All of them tasted amazing! Our favourites were the: - Spanish mussells, the flavour of the sauce mixed well with bread. - Lamb cutlets, the Charcoal held well with the scent of the meat. Would recommend anyone to join, from couples wanting a nice dinner date to larger families, as ty have large numbers of seating. Cost is as per menu, not the cheapest in town, not fine dining; worth the price.”

“Incredible vegan food; got a salmon bagel which was so good; so many options so reasonably priced. Cute atmosphere too”

“This place is my absolute fav. Delicious, fresh doughnuts and wonderful staff. Enjoy the changing flavours every month. It’s probably good that it’s only open Thursday to Saturday otherwise I’d be there every day.”

“What a fabulous place to meet up with friends. Set on the edge of Coronation park, it's away from the hustle and bustle, but close to the main shopping street, and Pilot bay. The treats on offer are devine, but my favorite is the cheesy savory scone. (They do celebration cakes too) Excellent coffee and the lemon ginger tea is delicious. The staff are awesome and look after our sizable group with ease, and nothing is too much trouble.”

“Absolutely amazing café with delicious food and coffee. They are able to cater for dietary requirements as well such as glutenfree and vegetarian options.”

The owner has incredible knowledge and can help you find anything. Make sure you take an antihistamine (dusty for obvious reasons) and have a coffee before you arrive, as once you're here, you could easily spend hours perusing the shelves.”

“The food was so Tasty and finger licking The atmosphere was very good We went there for lunch and was worth every penny Nice and clean restaurant Will visit again”

“We've been here multiple times this past year, including for my birthday, and they've always delivered yummy food and great service. I will say that the last time we went, there was a large group and they were quite delayed in serving our drinks & dessert cocktail, but this was a one off, and I still think of Fox's as one of the best places to grab a bite. Their menu is quite inventive - both the drinks & the food - and their weekly specials make them even more enticing. You won't regret a meal here!”
