Cafe Baku

I enjoyed my breakfast experience there. It seemed to be a popular place as I entered they had a few tables available. You have a choice of sitting on stools Standard chair and tables or soft chairs . Washroom facilities. A sign indicating asking to be patient as staff limited from the covid epidemic. The cabinet food just looked delicious and fresh good options to choose from. I ordered the scrambled eggs and tasted delicious also a nice healthy drink green goodness which was great . Service and staff was wonderful Most definitely coming back again.

Great place on the waterfront, very busy which is a good sign. Heaps of variety of dishes so something for everyone, cabinet and menu items, with a Mediterranean twist. Everything was fresh, and hot. Good value for money. Friendly fast service even when busy. Nice interior design inside also.

A delightful experience, lovely staff & decor. Great selection of cabinet & menu options. We were in for our first time and enjoyed French toast & the full breakfast. Plus a delicious Feijoa juice from Hastings live there, but never seen it for sale there.Food: 5/5

We googled and were recommended to this cafe, but felt a bit disappointed for our first experience there. We ordered Big breakfast and Bacon Corn Fritters, which should be easy dishes to prepare. However, we waited for over one hour, and Big breakfast was not warm already. The Corn Fritter was not bad though, but we don't think it should take an hour to prepare as it's premade in the cabinet. The Cafe's got heaps of food to choose from, but the long wait did affect our mood of the day...

So good! Although it was packed with people for New Years, we were told it would take a half hour wait. No problem with that. Our food and drinks were out in 15 mins. Customer service = amazing. Edit: We came back 3 times in the days we were staying in Taupo and ordered the Beef Quesadilla twice, the Turkish Roll once, and my last day there I ordered the Vegetarian Wrap.

Great little spot for lunch. Quick to order and for the food to arrive. The steamed mussells were smaller than I was expecting but for how much I paid, the quantity was pretty good. My partner enjoyed their vegan meal and we took a lovely almond croissant to go.Food: 4/5

Amazingly quick service. We were a table of 15 and got served within 20 mins. Kudos to the chefs and front end staff. Food tasted fresh and the coffee hit the right spot after a huge party the night before. We sat at the seating area across the road which was very handy to accommodate all of us together. Still got our food on time from friendly staff members. Highly recommended for larger group of people.

Great for lunch will go again. Busy but didn't have to wait. Had the Spanish omeltte, actually not a true Spanish omeltte, as had no potatoe but still tasted good. My wife had the vegetable pastry good too. Bothe meals a decent size and price wise average.

Very popular cafe location close to the waterfront. Plenty of options on their menu + everything in the cabinet! Coffee was good and food we ordered, would recommend!

Cozy cafe with fantastic Lake and Mountain View. The spinach and mushroom dish is really nice. Get busy after 8am in peak seasons. Favorite breakfast spot in Taupo, highly recommend!
