Lily Eatery Devonport

I went today for lunch with my partner, I ordered the lamb tostada and he ordered the salmon on toast, we also had the basque cheesecake. We absolutely love the food, service was really fast. Highly recommend it and we'll definitely be back

Great place for breakfast we took the Ferry across. Lovely cabinet food aa well as menu. We took a 10year old who loved the kids waffles. Very generous portions

I first visited Lily right after arriving in New Zealand, and their Turkish eggs completely won me over. The poached egg, tangy yogurt base, and that spoonful of what I can only call a “soul sauce” created an aromatic, layered experience. When the sauce is good, everything is good.nThe sourdough on the side was just as memorable—crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside, “Like bread that has lived seriously”nThis time, I came back with a friend, hoping to revisit the Turkish eggs. One of the lovely girls working there told us that the menu is updated monthly based on seasonal ingredients, so the dish is currently off the menu—but will return already looking forward to it.nWe tried another popular recommendation instead, which was also delicious. And I couldn’t resist ordering the tiramisu. It had the classic structure, with what seemed to be an added layer of chocolate ganache—making it richer, more complex, but still perfectly balanced in sweetness.nThe overall experience was just as wonderful as the first time. Will definitely be back again!

Excellent rich strong coffee. One of the best carrot cakes I have had. A true hidden gem. Superb latte art. Sun 1pm.

June 2025: My second time at Lily, and just wow! Tried their Halloumi cheese dish which was outstanding. And probably had the best cherry pie in my life. Thank you for an amazing culinary experience nnThis is a Devonport hidden gem, so please don't tell anyone. I am on a strict diet and decided to have my cheat meal there. And boy Lily delivered.nnIt started with a high quality coffee and continued with an amazing cake. The cake was not overly sweet, moist and delish. But cornfreit was obviously the highlight. Not heavy and just yummy. And it was combined so well with labaneh, harrisa and other good stuff.nnThanks for an amazing experience. One of those places that are worth taking a ferry to.
