The General Café

We arrived at the right time because it literally filled up completely after we ordered. Brought colleagues as we were on a work trip and I often come here when I visit family. We thoroughly enjoyed our brunch. Tasty and delicious! Coffee was exquisite. Friendly staff who were accommodating and the food came out fairly fast considering all the orders they were hammered with suddenly. Cakes and slices are to die for so we made sure we took some for our car ride back to Auckland.

Every time I come here I have an enjoyable time. The Turkish eggs are absolutely fantastic and I'm yet to find a place to top them. Coffee is great, staff are helpful and friendly. Even when it's super busy it's still a great little spot for brunch. One of my favorites in the area.

Lovely spot for a late Saturday morning! The Turkish eggs were so tasty, the picklessss!!! but I almost died via cinnamon overload on one corner of my cappacino. To be fair, I should of had a latte and not risked the biscuit to end up dry heaving over spices.nnStaff were super friendly. We had to wait a while for everything - although everyone was working hard to serve a full house!

We went when it was super busy and were pleasantly surprised by the service and food considering! The French toast was very nice. The brisket was a little dry, but the flavours of the whole meal were yum as and the sauce made up for the dryness. The coffees were great too! Would come back.

Was down at the Mount for the weekend and we wanted some brunch. Saw a cafe in the corner n thought we'd give it a try. It was quite busy, but we managed to get a table big enough to sit 8 of us. I don't know if it was because they were busy we didn't get asked if we were ready to order, so we went up to the counter and ordered.. Only to be asked like 15-20mins later are you ready to order, a bit too late bro, ordered and paid. With the prices we paid our expectations were pretty high, when the food came out it looked wow but the taste was average, more like it wasn't the greatest. Not worth the money & service wasn't the greatest. If I was to come back down to the Mount I wouldn't come back here.
