    Really great price and nice outdoor area! Good prices and great portion sizes. Had a Srircha Hollandaise Benedict and it was really good! I do hope there is a bigger menu :)

    Tiktok brought us here and it did not disappoint!! The food was quite nice. Portion size was pretty decent although the price was a bit on the high side BUT for the service and setting overall it's worth it!!

    👍The coffee here is fantastic!!👍 Especially, the taste of flat white is amazing.☕ The aroma of coffee beans is good enough to remain from beginning to end. Steak is more delicious than regular restaurants and the quality of meat is good. I kept eating the chips because they were crispy.🍟The pasta is so delicious that I want to dip it in the sauce on the baguette bread.🍝 (It would be better if could give a few slices of bread with pasta😁) Be sure to visit and enjoy coffee and food! Best!😍 I hope this cafe opens even on the weekend. The staff are so kind. Amble and Birch is a great coffee and foods and cozy cafe. 🙆‍♀️🙆‍♂️

    Amble + Birch is a lovely, quiet cafe nestled in the heart of Wiri/Manukau. Service is fabulous - they laughed at my jokes and were only too happy to reheat my coffee… but not in the usual sense. Rather than just banging it in the microwave, they topped it up with fresh foam and chocolate. Awesome. Really good pastries too. Bacon wasn’t to my personal taste and my friend said there could have been some dressing in her brunch bowl. But other than that, amazing.

    It was quiet when we were here. The food was beautiful, very generous servings. Hubby had the Big Breakfast with the perfectly poached eggs and I had the Eggs Benedict with a nice amount of salmon. The staff member who served us was attentive and professional. The ice coffee was divine. Thank you for making our day!.

    Travelling to manukau today and stumbled on to this gem of a cafe. The place was buzzing with atmosphere and the locals of manukau were out for their working lunch in full force. Check the seating out, it’s the perfect place for work catch ups and business lunches. Sterling Arnet Kakapo Business Sales

    Great staff and friendly happy vibes throughout our lunch. Our family ordered the Chicken eggs bene, Steak meal, Eggs your way, Pork belly bao buns, fries and kūmara fries and all of it tasted delicious and the sizing was perfect, especially the steak :) Definitely recommend to all.

    Kinda expensive e.g $2.50 for an extra small slice of bread full of baked holes(!) as their big breakfast only gives one slice of bread. My coffee order was very mixed up/wrong in last visit. The premises is nice and well maintained. A few dedicated parks in the shared carpark.

    Too noisy.We had an elderly lady with us. She was unable to hear what we were saying as the people on the next table spoke too loudly.

    Ordered catering of these guys and they were super accommodating and very decently priced. I was able to pick up on time and enjoy a delicious coffee at the same time.

    Ordered the quinoa brunch bowl. Unfortunately it didn’t include any quinoa. I think the chef forgot to put it in. Same with a colleagues meal who ordered the same thing. Tasty but not particularly filling. Left still feeling hungry.

    Nice little caffe in the business park. Great atmosphere, clean and spacious. Service was great and coffees were excellent!

  • 3/5 Eunice L. 1 year ago on Google
    Food is reasonable as are the prices. Smart looking cafe plonked in the middle of a very industrial area. Good indoor outdoor flow and not too much smog considering the location. Service from staff was 5 star, very attentive.

    I come to this cafe two days a week when I’m in the office and am honestly blown away by the amazing cabinet food selection. They have a good number of meat & vegetarian options and the food is SO tasty. The coffee if always perfect and the environment warm & welcoming. Great seating area indoors and outdoors for rain or shine and I just couldn’t rate this cafe highly enough! Thanks for the awesome addition to Plunket Ave :)

    We had two flat whites, poached eggs on sourdough with spinach and mushrooms, and the three pork belly bao. Coffees were strong and good. We found the menu a bit boring but the execution of every element of the dishes was perfect. We would come again if in the area.

😠 I used to enjoy coming here, not anymore. The lamb shanks here used to be served nice and hot and tasted good. Now the food is bland, not fresh, tastes and looks like it’s been microwaved. Inside the restaurant reeks of stale alcohol and left over food scraps. The carpet is in dire need of a deep cl...
