Top 5 Coffeehouses in New Zealand

8 George Street, Palmerston North Central, Palmerston North 4410, New Zealand

“Had breakfast here this morning and was greeted by a lovely man who had a big smile on his face. From the moment we walked in we could feel the beautiful atmosphere. The food was absolutely delicious and they had fast service even though they were busy. All the staff were friendly too. It may be difficult to find a park on George street but there is free parking underneath Harvey Norman for 2 hours.”

42 Tawa Drive, Albany, Auckland 0632, New Zealand

“Cozy place close to the highway, and a friendly team, but the open omelet and mushroom are not what we expected. ☕ mocha and latte coffees are not tasty. But my son loved his food including roster bacon, scramble edges, and cooked tomato with toast and butter. His tomb was up for hot chocolate.”

12 Elizabeth Street, Waikanae 5036, New Zealand

“Today, I visited #relishcafe at Waikanae. Why haven't I been here before ..... It's such a lovely place. I can see by all the awards, reserved tables, it's a really popular place. Service was impeccable, atmosphere lovely, ka pai seating in and out, and as it was such a beautiful sunny morning, I sat outside. Kāwhe (bowl) was perfect, and the kai (big breakfast) only lasted seconds on the plate. Two ka pai sized pieces of toast to mop up all the poached egg and juices, yum. Will definitely return. I'm just not sure how I missed this place 😢.”

4 Appian Way, Albany, Auckland 0632, New Zealand

“Went there last Sunday for Brunch, was really nice. Despite the place beeing packed and the conference rooms hired. The waitresses were smiling and friendly and we had a table within a few minutes. The food was great and also Gluten-free options on the mains. Could improve their cabinet selection with gluten-free options. Nice Mimosas and reasonable prices, plenty of parking and a nice view at the landscape and at the Westharbour stadium. Positively surprised and definitely worth trying.”

9 Bow Street, Volcom Lane, Raglan 3225, New Zealand

“The best coffee in Raglan. It's in narrow alley way. Open until 5 PM everyday. Do not pass this when you are in Raglan. No sit in, takeaway only. Highly recommended, love it”

179/183 Karangahape Road, Auckland CBD, Auckland 1010, New Zealand

“I had their tomato toast with a pouched egg on top - it was really good, especially the sour dough bread was amazing!! I also had iced latte which was ok but wouldn’t recommend this place for the coffee - definitely for the food tho (: The service was great and the atmosphere was really fun and relaxed.”

City Gallery Wellington, Te Ngākau Civic Square, 101 Wakefield Street, Wellington 6011, New Zealand

“Overhyped and overpriced. The food was acceptable but nothing out of the ordinary, and the prices outrageous. Two different servings of kedgeree were completely different sizes. "Crispy confit baby potatoes" were actually fries. Staff were unfriendly, one bordering on rude. Won't be back.”

65 Chapel Street, Tauranga 3110, New Zealand

“My first time here and I loved it. I ordered avocado on toast with a beetroot relish and poached eggs. It was so delicious 🤤 Coffee was pretty good. Service was friendly and helpful even with a few special requests. Location is great with a nice view over the water. Given it's part of a little shopping complex there is also enough parking Decor and atmosphere is really nice Toilets were ok but wouldn't call it clean Can recommend anyone to come”

282 Madras Street, Christchurch Central City, Christchurch 8011, New Zealand

“Cosy cafe with a nice chilled vibe. Tried a baked dish that was tasty and warming. They also do a great cuppa.”

567 Manukau Road, Epsom, Auckland 1023, New Zealand

“Wow what a surprise. It was like walking into a small museum of tea and coffee history. It was so interesting I have to return. The coffee grinders the range of teas. Of course the coffee served was on point. I took a few photos of things to notice if you go there. They have other shops over Auckland”

99 Parnell Road, Parnell, Auckland 1052, New Zealand

“First time tried and found it perfect place. This could have been more better if the order taker become more polite. I have asked if she can send someone to clear the table but she responded “ we are very busy”. Coffee was great as requested. 👍👍.”

Westfield shopping centre 129 Riccarton Road, Riccarton, Christchurch 8041, New Zealand

“I was a little tentative cos of people's bad experiences but my wife's Dad (non English speaking Asian) insisted we go Starbucks. We had our order taken by a tall chap with beard and glasses. He was a gent, patient with broken English and a drawn out order. The ladies who made the coffee were nice too and the coffees were made well. I'd come back for sure. Wifey also bought a cute cup (belated bday pressie).”
