Breadhead Tauranga

Coming from Belgium, we didn’t expect to find such good bread in New-Zealand but I can tell you that Breadhead is the place to go. The bread is very good and their Morning buns are to die for nStaff is always friendly even when it’s busy!

I’m not a coffee girl, but gosh do I love bread! The only place in NZ where the baguette rivals the ones I bought fresh from the patisserie in Paris. The ciabatta, crispy on the outside yet perfectly light and fluffy on the inside. A must for when you are entertaining! Went to the new site at the art museum today, what a special spot! Thanks for steadfast deliciousness Breadhead team.

Despite there being one hour left before closing, the female staff member at the counter slightly short pigtail-style hair responded in a very rushed manner, making it feel like we were being hurried to order. This gave a very poor first impression.nnThe bread itself was also not as good as its reputation suggests. Compared to bakeries in Auckland that do this well, this place is not worth going out of your way for.nnOne staff member with green hair was friendly, but overall the staff attitude felt unwelcoming. Another slim blonde staff member with tied-back hair spilled a drink on my pants while serving. She did not apologise immediately, only said sorry after I expressed dissatisfaction. She also did not bring tissues, went back to making coffee, and later handed me a wet, dirty cloth to clean myself.nnFor a café with this level of reputation, I would expect much better service and customer care. The atmosphere felt very unfriendly and not reflective of the usual New Zealand hospitality.nnUnfortunately, this visit left a very negative impression, and I would not return.

My first time there and I had a wonderful experience! The staff were so kind and friendly and the food was great. The coffee was delicious and authentic, just as yummy as Italian coffee I'll definitely come back

My partner and I drove 50 mins to check this place out! Jalepeño bread is crazy good, and the Italian biscuits. Coffee is also great and they have Supreme beans which are the best you can get in NZ in my opinion. Thank you so much!
