The Gateau House

Sugar, Sweet and everything nice !! That’s Gateau house - This little heaven on queen street, Auckland CBD produce some of the finest gateau that are a visual treat and tastes outstanding. We recently stopped by for dessert and thoroughly enjoyed it. Highly recommend this place. I have fond memories of this place. I had ordered a gateau for my son’s first birthday a few years back - really loved it. Thanks!!

I've been shopping for all my cakes at Gateau House for years, and it's always my go-to cake shop!! The location is very convenient and the cakes are so fluffy and delicious!! I tried many different flavours of their cake and none of them ever disappointed me. I have also recommended many of my friends to get their cake here for special ocassions :

What a treat ! I got a Latte which was perfect and piping hot. The Black Forest cake was moist and delicious with the fresh cream in the layers. I also got a Strawberry Petit which is perhaps one of the nicest things I have ever eaten.

Definitely worth the five stars. The attention to detail is impressive, the depth of flavour is deliciously intense and the staff were helpful and professional. Only downside was lack of gluten free options.

Wonderful service, excellent chocolate slice. Very rich and tasty. Perfect coffee too. Will definitely come again.

Got three cakes to try, everything looked so appetising! The staff were helpful and the service was swift. Mini baked cheese cake 2.5/5 Texture and taste was not what I expected. I anticipated a fluffy airy mousse like cheesecake but instead was met with a dense sponge that dried out the mouth a bit. It is quite a thick sponge with an eggy taste and was heavy to eat. It also was a bit bland, there wasn't much of a prominent flavor and I was disappointed. Classic cheesecake 3.5/5 Wow she thicc. This was was a thick solid block of cream when I cut through it. Tart in taste, with yogurt-y accents and a super creamy texture, it definitely tingled the tastebuds the most out of the three pieces we tried. It is improved by the caramel-y base which was slightly harder than the cake itself. Overall the most unique of the three but nothing wow. Kumura fresh cream 3.5/5 The name jus made me crave and I had high hopes. It wasn't as sweet as I imagined, in fact is was not that sweet at all but the taste focused around the super fresh airy cream that slathered between each sponge layer. The cream worked well against the denser sponge and together they mixed into a milky concoction, however if there was less cream the elements would not have worked and the cake would've been to overpowering. Personally it didn't meet the wow threshold but it was a nice treat, a simple neat fresh cream cake. Overall I don't think these cakes are worth the hype, I was planing on getting the strawberry tiramisu full cake, but if the classic fresh cake didn't even wow me, I doubt the tiramisu would be spectacular. The cakes were quite basic, and they're decent don't get me wrong, but they just lacked uniqueness.

disaster service. The online order system is a joke to trick your money! Call center never take your call. After long frustration waiting, I can only say that their online ordering system is not a scam but full of bugs and chaos. Cake is okay. But you definitely can get the similar cake with much much better service in other bakery shop.

I think s.o reckon me buy original cheese cake which less sweet. I am so regret that i bought that original cheese cake $11. It tasted horrible, not fresh.... really regret buying a $11 small original cheese cake taste horrible. It is quite expensive to a small cake and suck...

We had the chocolate mousse cake, baked cheesecake and a coffee cake with a latte and an iced tea for my friend. I love going here with friends because its a chill place to catch up and the desserts are so pretty! The interior is not the prettiest but the beautiful and yummy desserts are so worth it. Coffee was great as well and the strawberry mousse cake was almost too pretty to eat. Service is always nice, you order at the till by the coffee machine not by the cake cabinet. They also have outdoor seating.

One of my favorite dessert place in Auckland. They always have excellent presentation of tasty and beautiful sweets. I especially love their Mont Blanc which is really my love because of its crispy pastry, smooth cream and chestnut filling. But I would not recommend mocha cake since it's really average.
