Big Sur

This is my new favourite cafe. The owners are so nice and the food is absolutely 5 out of 5. Every time I come, it never disappoints. I stopped in during lockdown to pick up some sandwiches and rembered how much I missed them. So glad to be able to go back whenever we like now. Thank you for making such yummy food :- Vegetarian options: Some cafes have vegetarian options that feel like they have no imagination. Big Sur stomps all over them

Really enjoyed the vegan steak and mushroom pie! Very fresh. Also appreciated the quiet space out the back where we could catch up with old friends away from any loud music or traffic noise.

Went to Big Sur for breakfast with my partner. Expectations were not only met but massively surpassed. Big Sur has a really nice calm and chilled atmosphere about it that was absolutely perfect. I got the poached eggs and she got the crepes. The presentation was beautiful and the taste was fantastic. We ended up sharing both meals as we loved them both! Highly recommended and we will without a doubt be back again.

We sat outside at the back. Not a fancy setting but good enough for basking in the sun. They got a good selection of vegetarian food with a little twist of Asian food. We had a tasty omelette and Banh Xeo which was very bland, almost not seasoned at all. As Vietnamese Crepes, Banh Xeo normally comes with a dipping sauce but served without it. Their coffee was beautiful and the lady staff was nice too.

Really delicious and friendly as service! The French Stroggy was delicious and a nice variation on a breakfast dish. Hot chocolates were also excellent.

Great, moderately priced, healthy and vegetarian fare with friendly service and terrific coffee. A really good spot for a brunch that's a little bit different and a little bit healthy. Vegetarian and, yes, even vegan options for the plant-based people in your life. A surprisingly multi-ethnic menu, with vegetarian twists on old favourites a yummy portobello mushroom benedict through to Indian Upma topped with a perfectly poached egg, Vietnamese crispy rice pancake Banh Xeo, Bean Tacos and more! Make sure you ask for an extra shot in your coffee, they make them a bit lightweight for the serious coffee drinker.

Love this cafe. Old and new memories are made here. Be patient if the staff are busy. The wait is worth it.

Unassuming and awesome, this little cafe is a hidden gem in Grey Lynn serving the best Supreme coffee, limited but well catered counter food and what looks to be more substantial items ordered by others off the menu. Thank you to the lovely folk at Big Sur for making my month in Grey Lynn a treat.

Amazing Food and Fabulous Service: This place is must visit for ones who like vegan or vegetarian food. I am thrilled by the food I had there and will definitely going to continue my visits there. I love this place :

food was good quality placed in the beautiful location of Grey Lynn as well as their food being very tasty and good condition would reccomend
