The prawn linguine was the best I've had. The high-tea would have fit right into the Ritz. The decor, the displayed paintings by local artists, the friendly service make this a truly delectable experience."

"Our friend took us out to lunch here while visiting Auckland. Lovely cafe that is part of the larger garden center. Very cute. Dog friendly. Order and counter premade options. Our friend ordered a salmon quiche from the counter. My husband and I ordered the salmon eggs Bennie and avacado toast, and all had coffee. Coffee and quiche came out almost immediately but our toast and Bennie order took over half an hour to arrive which was a little awkward for our friend who was trying not to finish eating before we got our order. Although it was slow arriving, our meals were delicious and our time was our own."
