👍 Simple, clean and homey cafe with really good coffee. One of the best coconut flat whites I've tasted so far. Barista is also super friendly. Highly recommended! 😊 People often mention coffee, great,

    The place opened some time ago instead of the Curator. The design and menu have changed, but not too drastically. The coffee is tasty and the club sandwich was really nice. The slightly irritating bit was the cashier who first couldn't find the way to charge the items, did not specify that I asked fora trim milk, and waited for the barista to finish preparing my coffee before wrapping up my sandwich to go. As a result, the barista needed to replace my coffee with a trim one (thanks for doing that), and I waited for the sandwich. Apparently professionalism is only a recommendationed. And the cashier? She will eventually learn, right?

    Amazing coffee, and really lovely and helpful owner who gave up his time to suggest sights we should visit during our stay in Auckland. Gorgeous interior and very clean. You must have coffee here! A hidden gem

    Really top quality coffee (I get long blacks). Almond croissant was fresh, tasty and not too sweet/buttery as some can be. Perfect thanks

    One of the best coffees I’ve had in a long time. Super friendly barista and owner who you can tell really cares about turning out a top-quality product. Great vibe in the cafe - very open and inviting, but enough space to be cozy and get some work done. Many options of coffee roasts and also some great plant-based milks on offer. Highly, highly recommended.

    Wonderful cafe! It's been renamed as The Vant Garde. Staff are friendly and very accomodating when I bring my own cup.

    Really good coffee! Barista also brought around donuts for everyone in the cafe, which were really great. I’m a bit sad that Curator is gone, but this place seems great.

    Delicious coffee and outstanding service !!! Thank you for going the extra mile to serve our large and large groupe, including an overly energetic young child. 100% would recommend !

    Coffee was good and the scone was ok.

    This review is for espresso only. Service was great, cute little store seemed ok. Maybe if you get a milk drink with a pretty pattern it will be ok but straight black espresso was lacking in too many ways to recommend it in any way. Sorry.
