Takapuna Beach Cafe

Just nice view. The pasta not cooked well and no flavor totally $50 just for few scampi. The young and tall girl was a little bit rude ask us anything else then took the menu with poker face.

The majority of their plates are pretty delicious. Can get busy sometimes but usually you will find a place to stay. I loved their breakfast menu. I don't think they serve halal options although it would be great if they did!. so I used to avoid meat, chicken and pork.

What a beautiful experience, a lovely cafe, which is dog friendly, that made my day. It was packed the day we went, but they still found space for 5 of us. However, one person had to sit in the join of 2 round tables, which wasn't quite so ideal, especially when it came to eating, but hey, we were accommodated.nnThe food was absolutely beautiful, with large servings and scrumptious. Salmon was cooked and presented perfectly, along with the big breakfast, one of the two egg benedicts with bacon and also the eggs on toast meals. The second eggs benedict, photo not taken, was thrown together and over cooked, that was due to it being rushed after the waitress accidentally dropped the plate of food.nnThe decaf mocha with soy milk was the best I've tasted anywhere.nnThe meals overall we thought were, however, a wee bit on the pricey side, but it was worth it.nnThe customer service was good, we were first greeted by a lovely gentleman who made way for us and showed to our table, a lovely lady came and took drink orders while we waited for family to arrive. The second waitress was a little more pushy, and a little rude to my aunties which wasn't nice, also just as I took my last bite of food on my plate, the plate was quickly whipped away despite me still eating my mouthful and not quite being finished, I did think that was rude, I appreciate they were busy but a number of us were still eating and we were about to order more drinks.nnFive people, $170, this covered 5 breakfast meals, 4 hot beverages, and 1 cold smoothie.

This café in Takapuna is a must-visit spot for a fantastic breakfast or lunch paired with delightful coffee. My partner and I visited early on a sunny Friday morning at 6:30 am, and despite the early hour, the café was already crowded. Parking was difficult, but we managed to find a spot.nnAs always, the staff provided excellent service. They offered a special Friday breakfast and lunch menu, from which we chose one dish to share: the Buffalo Halloumi, as my partner wanted the roasted eggplant. We added poached eggs and chorizo, and the meal was beautifully plated on two separate dishes since we mentioned we’d be sharing. Our coffees - a flat white and a cappuccino - were delicious, and everything came together perfectly.nnDespite the busy atmosphere, we had a wonderful morning enjoying the splendid view of Takapuna Beach. This café is highly recommended, and I’ll definitely be returning!

Such good food, had the passion fruit gelato smoothie and it was incredible. The lunch menu is pretty expensive but their cabinet food is worth the price, and the location is incredible. Service came with complimentary sparkling water which was really nice
