    Tony puts on the best spread in Henderson. The locals always come here for coffee. Lunchtime you will be lucky to get a seat and they also have good range of Vietnamese food. Top spot Sterling Arnet Kakapo Business Sales

    Still a top favourite. The food is consistently A1. Beautifully presented, super tasty and always leaving that mmmm yum feeling afterwards. Unexpected find for Henderson, this cafe offers some superb alternatives to the traditional breakfast menu. Staff are super friendly. You know you're onto a winner when you can please both Gran and your vegan daughter at the same time. Can't recommend this place highly enough. Even Gran says it's scrumptious!

    Very delicious food! Had the Bun Cha and The Keto. Bun Cha had a lovely broth and loads of crunchy fresh veg. Pork was tender and full of umami. The Keto had a creamy sauce and delicious chicken and veggies.

    Have been missing out on this cafe with the many options around Henderson area. Tried out their Bun Cha as I am an avid fan of Vietnamese food. It was worth it! Never imagined eating frilled bbq pork for breakfast but this one was on point! I am used to savoury breakfasts but this one definitely got my day started with the unique taste this dish offers. Had a taste of the other dishes the family ordered and they were all great. The customer service was beyond exceptional and the recommendations were on point. Very warming place as well and reasonably priced. Will come again 😊👌 Update: have returned and it has been another great experience. The Feijoa Apple smoothie has also evolved into something unique! We tried more dishes, french toast and creamy mushroom chorizo. Both very hearty and left us satisfied after this visit.

    Cozy cafe, plenty of seating. Lovely staff. Coffee came within 5mins with a near full House, food followed in 10-15mins. Everything was hot on arrival. The taste was not to my personal liking, feedback to the staff which was taken in a positive light, they came back very quickly to confirm the dish and how it was prepared. This was due to the seasoning on the tofu Benedict seeming different than previous visits. Would come back again.

    Been here a couple of times and enjoy having coffee n lunch here. Everything is good, from food to service and ambiance. I live in Mount Wellington and this cafe worth my frequent visit when I’m in Henderson visiting my friend.

    You can definitely see why this place is busy. The interior is well designed. Service is good and customer focused. Smiley faces all around. Coffee is not bad at all. The offerings in the kitchen is quite varied. Looks quite delicious. Prices are reasonable. Parking at the back can be quite a squeeze but there is off street parking. Worth a return to.

    I stopped here for coffee after a work meeting and had a Leto blueberry slice with it. Low carb and gluten free. Well it was really yummy and the coffee was good too. I ate it before I took photos so only photos of surroundings. There are plenty of parks out back. Place is clean and staff pleasant. Cost $-$$ well worth the sop.

    Didn't expect little cafe is that good. First time we try this place. Hear from friends that they serve vietnamese noodles. We go here for special mother's day treat. And we all tryout the Phở bò ( vietnamese beef noodles soup). It so satisfied and yummy. No need to go away from the west Auckland.

    First time trying this cafe on Saturday morning. Glad they were open from 8, as Huckleberry doesn’t open until 9:30am on the weekends. I had the vegan Avocado Benedict, which was, frankly, awesome, and my companion had a traditional Eggs Benedict, which had, apparently, very nicely cooked eggs. The coffee was also very good all round. The only thing I’d say was the foam art on my coconut latte was a bit odd, like someone had tried to make a heart and ended up with a circle (see pic), but this was not a big deal. This will be my new regular spot to meet friends since the Onehunga Cafe and Huckleberry both changed owners and ditched their best vegan dishes. 💚

    1/ Been here a few times, parking is always a challenge but the food is worth it. 2/ Always a favourite, breakfast this time. 3/ called in on voting day, every one must have had a similar idea, very good service for Saturday brunch.

    Nice employees although I think they got my order confused. The bap I received was different than the one I had ordered but still tasty and I was in too big of a rush to inform them. The iced caramel latte was fine.

    Awesome cafe that has the family coming back to try more of their offerings. The atmosphere is delightful and relaxing. Favourites would include the Beef Pho and the Cambodian Black Rice Porridge.

    Quite slow service but customer service was good. Servers greeted customers happily. The pho I ordered was nice and hot, lots of beef strips, average broth and noodles were a tad overcooked. I'll definitely go back though to try their other dishes.

    I absolutely loved the cafe interior vibe and for-surely yummy food. Went in there yesterday morning the food is yummy yummy and the presentation was so good. Just one thing would be a little overpriced. Egg Benedicts was yummy and Creamy Mushroom With Chicken Liver was supper yummyyy

    Dined here two mornings in a row before work. Great find in Lincoln Rd, just round the corner from the hotel. Service was prompt and super friendly. Quite hard to choose from the menu as there are so many delicious options. Generous portions, well presented and really tasty. Apparently the coffee is really good too (I don't drink it but was well advised on it). Lovely cafe with plants and neat interior. Well done team, I will be back if in the neighbourhood.

    I am a regular at this cafe and have tried more than half of the dishes. The overall quality has been satisfying! The cafe offers a diverse range of menu items, from simple breads to noodle soup. The coffee is also delicious, at least in my opinion. I enjoy chilling, eating, and drinking while chatting with my friends here. Highly recommended for those who frequent Lincoln Road.

    This cafe was a very lucky find while passing through Henderson. It was their interesting Southeast Asian fusion menu that stood out to us when we searched for a place to have a late lunch along Lincoln Road. I ordered the Green Omelette and it arrived beautifully presented. It was fluffy, incredibly tasty with the right combination of tomato chutney and pesto. The bread on the side came perfectly toasted. I chased it all down with a very well made iced oat milk latte. I am already planning my next trip back, I can’t wait to try more of their menu.

    I came here because they have high rates. Price was very good and drinks, food were really good, too. My partner loves his beef mince so much. Thanks for your service!

    My friend and I enjoyed our breakfast this morning. Well priced, friendly service, good coffee and food was very good.

  • 5/5 Gill H. 9 months ago on Google
    My new favourite! Been hanging out to go back so will go tomorrow for the black rice pudding! Also love their Asian chicken rice noodle salad! My friends I have taken also really enjoyed it. Delicious food, friendly service and super popular, I can see why! They were good about catering for my challenging dietary requirements, thank you!

  • 5/5 Emma P. 8 months ago on Google
    Been here 10+ times and I’m always happy with what I get! I’d recommend the mushroom filo if you want a small lunch, but there are plenty of really nice meal options including some authentic Vietnamese meals. The Pho is awesome! Very fragrant and refreshing. Staff are always friendly and quick to serve food and drinks.

👍👍 Came in here for breakfast as after looking at and reading about other places nearby this seemed like the best option. I was not proved wrong. It was well worth it in respect to both food and service, and though not busy it was a nice place to sit in and enjoy breakfast. I chose the Goode Breakfast...

👍👍 First time visiting the store and the first time trying Texas Chicken. Thoroughly enjoyed the spicy wings and the burger. Brioche burger buns are really good. Loved the gravy that comes with the mashed potato. Definitely going to visit again.
