Would highly recommend this place for breakfast. The pumpkin lasagna was very good! All coffee is double shot (hurray!). The cakes and pastries displays are enticing!

Best breakfast I've had and the best meal I had on my whole trip to New Zealand. Had the grilled halloumi. Strange but delicious flavored meld together perfectly.

For one, the smoothies are really good. High variety in their menu if you need an extended option. My pancakes were delicious and so the poached eggs. Coffee (americano) was ok-ish. I’d go again.

The smashed avo and French toast were fantastic. Great service. It's fun to watch the food arrive in the mini elevator if you are sitting close to the stairs inside

Amazing place! One of the best places I have ever been. Many vegetarian and raw options. The food was tasty and beautifully served. Despite the line, it was very fast to get a table for 2.

Good place for breakfast with coffee. But too much crowd in the morning. If you want to find a place to eat something, just go and try. It might be a good choice.

Great food, good coffee. Order from window (not menu) if in a rush. Be sure to check out what's on offer at the counter too (not just window) - savoury brioche is amazing. Great fresh fruit juices!

Delicious breakfasts!! Cool interior design!! We were charmed by the collectible spoons (with ornaments on the handles) we received with our coffees. Long wait (30 mins) for food, though.

Fabulous brunch and lunch options. Coffee is great too. Gets busy but ask for a table anyway, the wait may not be long. Oh, and try the grilled halloumi.

Great place for breakfast but get here very early or you will be waiting a while for a table to open up. Also, order and pay at the counter.

So tasty! Coffee is quite good, food is even better. Very nice staff and even though it was quite full, got a seat pretty quickly.

Get the mount cook salmon with poached eggs. Beetroot relish went very well with it. Vudu at Beach Road served a slight different version of most items. Prefer ambience at Rees Street.

Had salmon on brunch menu and smoked warehou on lunch menu. Food was ok, but although all the ingredients were fresh and tasty on their own, there wasn't a lot of thought put into the construction.

Great coffee. Eggs benedict are ok but I'd rather have them with smoked salmon (too dry otherwise). Great pastries
