Columbus Mitre 10 MEGA New Plymouth

Lovely cafe. So nice to be able to get a smaller breakfast option. I had a delicious mini Benny for $11 . Great coffee and service and you can sit amongst the flowers.

Service from lovely woman at the desk named Adrienne was great! Happy, smiling and lovely. Coffee is great too but service out did it for me :Food: 5/5

Ordered a panini and it arrived burnt. This was supposed to be a special treat but couldn’t get past the burnt taste. Asked for a replacement which they did. But replacement was not toasted just warm soggy panini dumped in front of me with a snide response of sorry about that. Not sure which one she apologised for. Not going back. For $11.00 you’d expect they could toast bread.

Just finished a lovely lunch here, but… was really disappointed that tables were not regularly cleared. Diners were shifting dirty dishes to make way for themselves. Staff would bring out orders and return to kitchen with empty hands. Food good, service sub standard.

The loyalty card gave us each a free birthday coffee, which we upgraded to a large for 90c. Hubby had a basket of hot chips with dips, and I had a lovely fudgey slice incorporated with pistachio and raspberries etc. The total bill came in at less than $15! We were stoked!Food: 5/5

This would be one of few places in New Plymouth that offers #paleo #menu #choices. My #icecoffee was good too. I ate delicious soft shell tacos with prawns and salsa topped up with my coffee on the rocks. And it all turned into a perfect break between jobs. The place is great on a hot day because there's outdoor seating and a lot to look at.

I am consistently disappointed with the food. Last time I ordered fish and chips, the fish was still frozen in the middle. There seems to be very little consistency with the chefs.Food: 2/5

Lunch at a garden centre. Not Columbus' fault that our outside table attracted sparrows but they weren't welcome. My avocado on bruchetta with halloumi had masses of halloumi but the bruchetta had pesto and lettuce not avo. There were two little pieces on the side. It's not avo season but I did expect more from the name otherwise call it haloumi on bruchetta. Coffee was good. My brother took home a free bag of coffee grounds for his garden. In terms of spending our table of 4 had 3 x cabinet mains plus my bruchetta $21 coffee and shared 2 sweet slices so 20-30 per person Vegetarian options: My brother is vegetarian and he likes to eat here. I think he had an eggs bene on a rosti.

Great place to grab a coffee and snack with family or friends. Plenty parking, Easy access, rest rooms and outdoor under cover dining. Vegetarian options: Vegetable quiche Kid-friendliness: Good for kids

Dont go there very often but one of the best ice chocolates in town and a nice treatFood: 4/5
