    Best breakfast I’ve had in my life. I ordered the bagels with halloumi and added some chicken on the side. However, the chef included the chicken to the meal rather than on the side which made my day. Staff are friendly and the place has a nice vibe. The tables are sticky inside so we opted to sit outside. Definitely coming back 👍

    Great experience. Very friendly staff. I had chicken & waffles and it was so delicious. My partner had Beef Cheecky and it was so tender and full of flavour. We also tried the cauliflower on toast and it was a delicious surprise. Give it a try and you won't regret. We will go back for sure.

    This place is great. The food quality is very good. We asked for eggs well done, most places still have them runny, the team here nailed it. The food was cooked very nicely and presentation was awesome. Great coffee too! The place is quite busy so i would encourage patience.

    Only good things here! Ruki the amazing barista and FOH was very welcoming and professional. There are games and reading materials for kids, low calm music in the background. Coffee is excellent and food was so good! So many vegan choices that made my heart shine! Also they have wifi and are okay for us to seat and work from our computer for a bit ! Highly recommend, I'll be back, my Coffee cars already waits for me 🤗

    Fika has just opened up for dinner on Friday evenings so we went to try. For the mains, we got the pan fried snapper and the aged rump. Both were delicious and the rump was so tender. Our favourite was the sticky pork belly though and we just loved the sauce! It was very flavourful, just perfect. I also have to mention that the sourdough for the entree is soft and not chewy which I really enjoyed. Great service and beautifully decorated. Every dish was reasonably priced. Fika with me is definitely a spot that’s worth visiting.

    The food was amazing, I had cauliflower on toast and it's the bomb yum! So much flavor, my friend had buttermilk on bagel and also loved it. I also had a green smoothie and it was so delicious.

    We had pancakes and French toast. Beautifully presented and amazing portion for the cost. Best pancakes I have seen on the shore and I've seen many with my teenager.

    Fantastic food and friendly service. Their chicken burgers are brilliant. They were also very accommodating to my friend who was dairy free. Fika is definitely the best cafe I have been to in Auckland.

    OMG. The new owner has definitely lifted Fika to a whole new level. I had the eggs bene and bacon which came with a good amount of bacon and a subtle drizzle of sweet soy sauce to balance the hollandaise. My partner had the spiced Cauliflower on sourdough which was off the charts amazing. Finished with a spicy homemade Chai latte. The French toast looked amazing as well. One of the best cafes in Auckland.

    I'm an anxious person and wanted to try Fika for a long time. Today I went in was met with a friendly smile and a very welcoming environment. I felt comfortable to stay. It was not too crowded. I ordered Fika Eggs and Smoked Salmon, very delicious and a mocha that was great! I went back for lunch and ordered a tea with French toast and added bacon. It looked so cute and tasty. Definitely will be back with siblings and friends for catch ups.

    Fika With Me has quickly become my favourite cafe! I find myself driving all the way over from Greenlane to enjoy the coffee, food (I highly recommend the Mushroom toast) and relaxed environment for studying. The staff are also lovely, and never fail to make a great flat white! I can't recommend them enough :)

    Amazing food and great service. Went with some work colleagues for lunch today. Generous portions and every different dish looked amazing. Will definitely be back.

  • 4/5 Isabella M. 4 years ago on Google
    Food was pretty good but came out quite slowly. Servers didn’t have the best English and didn’t quite understand what we were after. Good local food though and would still recommend. Nice and clean, and nice cabinet pastries to chose from.

  • 5/5 Isaac B. 4 months ago on Google
    Food was delicious, very fresh, good portion sizes too. The price was reasonable because we booked through first table but would've been on the expensive side if we had paid pull price.
