Reviews of Zest Bakery & Cafe

I ordered "Grazing Time" which is the big breakfast I got extra bacon and mushrooms which this morning might have been an overkill as I had plenty to eat. It was soooooo good. The Cappuccino was nice too. Great service. I don't tip much. But I did this morning

I unwittingly booked a reservation late when they normally begin wrapping up their service, but the staff did not mind. Hoani gave us some of the best service I’ve been given while dining. The whole stone grill experience was utterly delicious, enjoyable, and memorable. Definitely an awesome date spot to check out if you’re ever around in Tauranga.

Love the experience I love the homey feeling and front bar and host he was absolutely amazing will be definitely back. Thank you too the chef 😊

Definitely worth a visit. Friendly service. Clean and yummy food. Thank you we will be back

Food was pretty good, but what made it great was our server Honai? so polite and helpful. Would recommend just for him. Give this man a payrise 👊

Great coffee and food. One of the places that we go regulary for lunch. Thumbs up to the amazing staff 👍

Came in mid afternoon for a tasty coffee, and had brilliant customer service from Jake. While the chicken pasta I got wasn't quite up to scratch, Jake went out of his way to make things right. Well done.

I had their calamari lunch dish today which was beautiful. Calamari was cooked to perfection, and their spicy tomato juice was excellent as well.

Great coffee and nice breakfast, staff are awesome, check it out for yourself.

Consistently good and one of the few cafes open early so we were able to have a breakfast meeting before attending a function beginning at 8. Staff did well to cope, I was going to give them a heads up when there was 6 of us planning to meet there when they opened at 7am, but expected 2 or would pull out. Instead we ended up being 9. We were all fed and watered and where we needed to be by 8.

Six of us aged from 22 to 85 went to Zest for dinner this evening. We had amazing, personable service from our waiter who couldn't do enough to help. The menu read well and we chose fish of the day, steaks, lamb and pork belly. Each meal was appreciated and enjoyed. The desserts were great and because we live locally, we walked (or was it waddled)home content. The price matched the value. We highly recommend Zest for a wonderful, relaxed and well presented meal out.

Always lovely as usual, friendly staff, extra Hot 🔥 chocolate when asked for, and yummy Blueberry Muffins, our regular go to for our work morning teas 😊

Great food and great atmosphere. Fantastic service from wuani ( sorry if spelt that wrong )

Yeah great cafe. Plenty of room. They were busy and the waiter told us our orders might be 20-30minutes. Our orders arrived much sooner than that and the food and coffee was really good. Portion sizes were pretty generous too. Definitely going to visit there again

Love this place, always fantastic coffee and the food is amazing, fresh and simply brilliant! Staff are great and thier friendly attitude and attention to detail and customers is superb! Cheers Zest! Looking forward to our next visit 🤩 would go 10 stars if I could 😉😊

Good location, and a nice open space for dining. Indoor, as well as covered outdoor areas. No savory vegetarian options in the cabinet, but good sweets, scones, deserts. The menu has two vege options: falafel Greek salad; egg on fat toast. Good coffee, nice staff.

Great place. Nice food, lovely friendly staff. Open after so many others had closed. Wd go again

Of been to this cafe a few times and have enjoyed the food every time. You get good sizeable portions. Its a must next time you're in Greerton. Prices aren't to bad either.

Great service great food really enjoyed the experience will be back! eggs Benedict superior 😊

Great food at a great price and service can be a bit slow when busy put ha just have another drink enjoy

Went there for dinner. Ordered the Taco Salad and the mince had too much chilli and not enough corn chips. Went to the bathroom to discover the extractor fans were completely full of dust and need cleaning. Would recommend to others

A very busy cafe with a lot of amazingly tasty food. Their hot chocolates are to die for. Ample seating inside and out. Staff are friendly and the service is fast. The chef makes such delicious dishes

A really good steak and excellent coffee. Pleasant staff. Thank you

What a hidden gem! Food was delicious...starters, mains and desert. Daughter had pasta dish which was so creamy and tasty. My partner and I had the stone grill...loved it! Desert was beautiful. Service was great, quick, friendly and polite. Would definitely go again. Nice relaxed atmosphere, surprised there weren't many people in there! Thanks Zest 😊

Always enjoy Zest and have been customers since 2012? Tasting platter on Stone grill is well worth the money. Best Kiwi Burger around and a great family vibe. Highly recommend.

Service was quick and efficient lovely lunch was a little pricey but worth it over all thank you guys Darren

Great Atmosphere, buzzing cafe. The two young men behind the counter are super friendly. Coffee great. Will definitely be back.

Friendly, quick service. The guy who served me was helpful and personable. The drinks we ordered tasted great and were good value. Cafe was clean and modern. The only thing lacking was that it didn't really have much of a personality and felt a little sterile

Great food, great beverages , nice people.

easy parking, great staff,outside seating,good room temp

Lovely little place, the food is well priced, and is super tasty

The lady in charge was extremely put out that we moved tables to accommodate our large group by ourselves. Said other customers complained all the time about the noise of movin* tables. Quite snappy and very unpleasant, bad enough for me to ask her if she would like us to go elsewhere. The tables were in the outdoor area.

Awesome service, food was OK. Nice chill atmosphere. Staff were awesome. Thanks.

Convenient Greerton location, friendly staff, good variety of food - the stone grills are great.

The food is great, as are the staff, but if you're in any kind of hurry you might want to go elsewhere. We've eaten here a couple of times, a few years apart and both times the food was excellent but very slow to be prepared.

What a treasure this place is in the middle of Greerton great food, coffee and friendly staff gluten free options great sounds with options of comfy indoor or outdoor seating ..perfect! cannot wait to try a stone grill dinner.. Definitely be back.

Just stopped in for a takeaway coffee and a VERY nice coffee it is 👍 will be back next time for lunch as other meals looked delish.... Can't wait to try.

Great place to have breakfast. Service was friendly. I would visit again

Great customer service great food 😌

Had dinner with my partner here. Was better than I expected.

Very friendly staff. Good variety of food. Excellent coffee. Nice surroundings. Clean & comfortable seating

Went here for a stonegrill dinner and were pleasantly surprised. Reasonably priced. Relaxed atmosphere and friendly, quick service. Will go again to try the lunch menu.

Fantastic coffee, lovely service, nice atmosphere with great sounds.

My favourite Cafe they make the best coffee and the staff are very accomodating "service with a smile"

Pretty slow service. Food arrived quickly with tea and coffee coming some 20 minutes later. Nice food which would have been even nicer with a drink

Busy place. Needs more staff on to help with orders. Had to wait nearly 15 minutes before I got my drink

Always fresh, lovely food and friendly service

Always a nice place to go. Very nice staff and good food, coffee, indoor outdoor seating etc. Couldnt ever fault them and been here many times :-)

We enjoyed ourselves. Good food great service and Wonderful desserts.

Great staff, relaxed atmosphere & lovely food.

Food was good, more selection would have been nice. service okay, but lacked the personal acknowledgement I have experienced on other occasions.

stonegrill was really nice and the guy who served us was really nice and had a great positive attitude, will definitely eat here again 👍👍

Was pleasant but some items were out of stock and the mains were smaller than I expected

Nice and Yummy Pancakes Could have done with a few pieces of Banana or a bit More Fruit.Will be back again.

Enjoyed Salmon frittata, with Salad, it was $8, good value. Friendly service as well. Inside and outside seats. Good meeting place.

Good cafe. Had a nice burger here. The food/ambience aren't extra ordinary. Service is great. Nice cafe to relax on a lazy afternoon.
