Definitely one of my favorite coffee shops in Auckland. Unlike the date I met here, the coffee never leaves a bitter taste and is genuinely good! I love how the caramel syrup actually mixes well, and so far my favorite blend is the rapture. Perfection. The employees are always friendly too and the book selection is so varied.

Awesome local cafē. Very popular with locals and great coffee. Quirky and cute atmosphere inside and also nice to sit outside and watch the world go by… if you time it right and manage to score a seat. Small but very nice selection of cabinet food too. Hidden gem in the burbs.👍🏻

Really understated cafe and we saw of just stumbled across it this morning. They have three different coffee beans to choose from which works a lot better than the 10 different coffee types to drink (which all kinda taste the same). The coffee is amazing! My partner had a mocha which he said was the best coffee he'd had all year. I had a cappuccino which was perfection. There's a few options for food from the cabinet but it's just what's in the cabinet, which was fine. When we were there, they had filled bagels, filled croissants and a few sweet treats. We shared a salmon bagel and a ham bagel and they both were really good. The combination worked well and ours was toasted to perfection. So really, a winning breakfast for feeling miserable days! The backroom was something grand! When you walk in, there's all these musical instruments to play on (a few needing tuning) but there were percussion instruments, wind instruments, guitars, ukulele, and things I dont know the name of! They were also stacks of those old lead based books, along with paperbacks. So many different styles of writing and all inviting. Peculiar items like chess boards ( you have to see it to understand its peculiarity) and niknaks too. The service was very friendly and kind! The cafe doesn't look like it has it's own allocated parking but there was plenty of street parking.

Excellent coffee stop for serious coffee drinkers, Try the Road Runner blend a strong bold full flavoured beans. Also a nice cosy setup and sitting area inside.

Best coffee in west auckland- they have 4 different coffee roasts to choose from all either their own unique flavour profile.

Excellent service and great tune. Awesome that Lydia greets customers by name :) Awesome spicy Chai and Road runner coffee! Great setting with books and instruments. Highly recommend.

Always good coffee. Sit inside or out. Nice little snug down the back. Great amount of interesting posters etc line the walls. Not what you would expect to find in the suburbs. Well done.

We were here before 8.30 and there was very little available to eat. No savory muffins or scones and they don't make smoothies. The coffee was good but didn't make up for the lack of food available.

Funky and great coffee. 4 of us cleaned them out of cabinet food and cold drinks (at 12 lunchtime) so pity any customers that followed.

Great coffee, with a variety of different strengths/blends to choose from, and the jar filled with free cookies was a lovely surprise. I had one with my coffee, it was delicious. Good service too. Cheers guys :-)

The grooviest eclectic Cafe on a random site serving the best coffee that kicks like a mule.

Great coffee and service, you go there for the coffee not food as theres not much more than some cookies, its a quirky little place off the beaten track.

Great coffee, 4 different beans to choose from

Best coffee ever! Consistant and thatwas absolutely shocking in the coffee world. The go too for consistent and quality products barristers are super chill and polite good vibe.

The coffee aroma was wonderful as I walked in and my coffee expectations were set, only to receive what was basically a cup of warm , frothy oat milk with a hint of coffee if you concentrated! My friend had ordered a single shot in her flat white but I made sure mine was a double. I asked if mine was a single, he said no. I said it doesn’t even taste like coffee and he walked away. Never gong back there again… well not for coffee… but I doubt I will be able to resist returning to buy an almond croissant as it was the best I have ever had!

Coffee is great! Love that you can pick your strength depending how tired you are. Unfortunately had the cap off the top of a milk bottle in my coffee last week.

My favourite coffee, amazing flavour and great service!

Small little coffee shop Absolutely excellent coffee, great selection of in house produced blends Coffee was also excellent Long black was nice and dark but not burnt Caramel latte was perfectly creamy with the coffee and caramel flavours balanced just right

Fabulous coffee, carrot cake gf to die for. Staff are great. Highly recommended

Great coofee friendly staff, worth going out of your way for a coffee. Still worth it.

Great coffee rich and tasty I called in to get my morning fix they're really laid back my dog walks around behind the counter and everybody is so frendly some pretty cool trippy art on the walls and they've even got a couple of couches that you can just lay back and drink your delicious coffee the feeling I get is that of a Sunday morning laid back
