A magical birthday cake. Ordered the large (30 cm round) Black Forest Torte, $100, which is approximately 20 large sized pieces. Cake looked amazing - photo is from Arobake website and cake was identical, with personalised chocolate message on top. Although I am not in general a big fan of cakes, particularly chocolate flavoured ones, the first delicious bite of this incredibly smooth and light cake made me go "Wow!". The layers of some kind of fancy melt-in-your-mouth chocolate sponge, whipped cream and stewed cherries have the perfect texture and a flavour which is much more pleasantly delicate and well balanced than I was expecting. I should have known it would be awesome because amongst locals Arobake is famous for putting the aroha into their kai and it shows in the food. Absolutely 100% the best cake I've ever bought, and made our special day that much more special.

I called from the South Island to order a selection of baked goods to be delivered same day in Wellington. Nekea went above and beyond to make this birthday gift happen for me. It was a pleasure to deal with them and some of the best customer service I have experienced. Highly recommend! Thanks again for being so awesome!

This bakery is awesome. The food is incredible, the price range is good and not expensive, and they provide deliveries. I gave family members a care baking package from here and they loved it.

M. K.

So friendly, some of the best coffee in Welly and love what you’re doing with the reusable cups. Also very efficient when asking for catering quotes for a corporate gift. Love this place, worth a trip out of your way

J. S.

Awesome experience today organizing my sons BDAY cake from Arobake. special thanks to Janis Scott and the bakers. highly recommend Arobake for all your baking needs and their delivery service. Thank You.

A.

Ordered a selection of baked treats delivered for lock down. Everything was absolutely superb and hand delivered fresh as and when promised. The kids were delighted. Thank you!

B. K.

The vegan selection is absolutely amazing. There is a lot more selection now than when Iast visited. We keep getting requests from friends now. Birthday cake selection is phenomenal. Simply have to taste it to believe it. Service: The new French guy is a bit abrupt and rude! I nearly walked out until Meena stepped in. If you need to order over the phone or in person I recommend speaking to Meena, she is wonderful & incredibly helpful. Thank you Meena🙏🏽

S. K.

The food is wonderful. Our favorites are the spinach and feta quiche, pear and ginger cake, and swiss apple cake. The staff are responsive and helpful and home delivery is very reliable, even in Covid times.

Wonderful service and very cooperative team. I placed an order from Pakistan and had it delivered in Auckland the very next day. The customer representative stayed in touch with me via email and ensured to keep the delivery a surprise. Loved the cake and greeting card. Will surely be availing more of their services!

K. G.

Excellent service, prompt delivery, reasonably priced and super delicious cakes. I ordered last minute for our office. I rang Arobake the morning we needed the cakes. Ours were delivered within an hour of my phone call. Ollie and Max were extremely helpful. Thanks guys you saved the day

Date Delivered: December 24, 2020 One thing I love about Arobake aside from their lovely food, they have great service. It’s my 2nd time ordering a cake for my partner, and for the 2nd time, he actually love it! He’s quite picky with his all time favorite carrot cake. But OMG. He absolutely LOVE it, and will be visiting the shop soon. Kudos to the owner, and to the staffs especially Ollie who has been a great help since from the start until the delivery day. Will definitely order again. Thank you so much! 💕 -Daisy

I can’t say much about the actual desserts as the were a gift but absolutely lovely staff, super nice and super helpful!

Arobake's rye and sunflower sourdough is in our opinion the best bread in Wellington, a city spoiled for choice with artisan bakeries. We have tried lots of the enticing goodies on their website... they are, without exception, delicious!... Can specially recommend the Gugelhupf, the plum and hazelnut tart, the ginger and pear cake, the almond sticks, the Zopf. Home deliveries from Arobake are a great service and those delivering are always friendly and cheerful. And the eggs they source are the largest, most golden and tasty I have managed to find anywhere... I could go on and on about this wonderful bakery, their products and lovely people!!!

Still amazing after all these years, my only minor complaint was that my avocado hating gf got a cheese and ham 🥐 not realizing the devil's food was ALSO inside. I got leftovers though so I can't complain. If you like baked goods and you're in the area no reason not to go.

P. P.

Arobake always bake with the special ingredient, 'LOVE'. Their baked goods are exceptional, delicious, affordable and well presented. Furthermore, the staff go above and beyond to ensure you're happy with your order. One of my most favourite bakeries in Wellington.

Beth N Ordered two weeks ago. Everything went great except the recipient didn't tell us! I thought it hadn't arrived and the staff twisted themselves into pretzels to get a lemon meringue pie delivered. The recipient ended up with 2 delicious pies. Excellent service.

C. D.

What a brilliant bakery and amazing service. We live in the UK and I wanted to have some cakes delivered to our son who is currently living and working in Wellington. I emailed Ollie the owner and he was more than happy to help, I ordered some cupcakes for delivery to his address on his birthday and it all went without a hitch, the cakes were delivered and Ollie even put a card in with the cakes to say Happy Birthday and who they were from. Our son (and his friends) said the cakes were delicious so thank you. Polite and helpful all the way through. . .

J. C.

Normally beautiful food, but today's salmon & brie pie was lacking in filling. The ham roll was pleasant though. Always pleasant staff & reasonable prices.

A. T.

We will be back for sure!! Also, easily the best coffee in the whole New Zealand (even better than Revive). Highly recommended

C. B.

Amazing baked goods and service. Remember your keep cup because they don't have the paper takeaway coffee cups (they do offer them for sale though if you do forget!). I will be back very soon.

S. S.

I ordered to deliver cake in NZ. The service experience was much higher than I expected. Well done Ollie. 💐. Thanks for full flling my desire to deliver to someone in NZ Wellington. I ordered Vegan chocolate and Raspberry cake and almond sticks which was loved by all. I will definitely do more orders in future..

V. L.

Needing to acknowledge a special birthday, but not in the same city as the birthday girl, Arobake made the challenge so easy. A delicious Carrot Cake was made, delivered, and the recipient VERY happy! Perfect!! Great communication throughout the process as well....easy, thank you.

F. C.

Thankyou Ollie for Arobake's quick response in delivering a chocolate and raspberry cake to Newtown for my son's birthday. Much appreciated as I didn't give you much notice. Cheers Frances A grateful Auckland mum 😊

V. B.

I bought an avocado, cream cheese and smoked salmon bagel from there on Saturday and it was divine. The best I’ve ever had. Thank you, I’ll be back next time I go into town.

D. M.

It's my partner's birthday today and I emailed Arobake for a cake to be delivered to him a couple of weeks ago. I couldn't do it since I'm stuck miles away from him due to covid. Ollie asked me to place the order and never worry about being delivered on time. Oh my gosh! My partner loves it! He cried when he saw it and thought of me. He loves that handwritten card! 🥺🥺🥺🥺 The cake was absolutely delicious too. I could never thank Arobake enough. Thank you so much. You made his birthday memorable even without me physically. 🥺🥺🥺 BEST. CAKESHOP. EVER 💕 P.S. Do you guys make wedding cakes too? 😉

Travelled 20 minutes to try this bakery on Saturday morning. Really wanted to try them all to be honest as all of them looked delicious and fresh. A variety of choices from pastries, staples, sweets, pies, and sandwiches, (the list goes on) Limited seating and the place can get very crowded. Very friendly staffs. Reasonably priced. They also make their own peanut butter, probably I’ll have to visit once every week to try all their baked goodies. Overall excellent bakery, much better and more ‘genuine’ bakeries than anywhere else in Wellington :-)

M. D.

This is a great bakery. Many hard working decent people toiling to create delicious and consistently brilliant breads and pastries. In times of travel we used to drop in on the way out or on the way home , now it is delivered. A pleasure to be sure in these challenging times. Thank you Max and crew!

T. B.

Nice staff. Salmon and brie pie is a winner.

e. m.

Thank you Aro Bake!!!!! The cakes you provided me with for my work fundraiser were amazing and I had so many colleagues asking me where they were from. The vegan mini cakes went down amazingly well not only with the vegans in the office but everyone! The pear and ginger mini cakes were my particular favorites. I can't rave enough about how much I enjoyed the cakes, thanks so much for your help! I will definitely be coming back to you again for any cake needs! Much appreciated. Ellie :)

Arobake! Have to admit the best smoked salmon and cheese pie I have had in NZ. Use to live at the top of Alameda terrace and I visited this place everyday. All the baked goods are of great standards. Though a little pricey for some items but when you try them, they are worth every single cent. My only issue is they close way to early

J. M.

Beautiful bakery food, and good coffee. Limit seating available, so expect to grab and go during peak hours.

D. C.

Amazing cake and pastries. Went above and beyond for surprise AM delivery during lvl 4

A. G.

Lovely little bakery with delicious looking pastries. I've only tried the macadamia caramel slice but it was divine. Will definitely be back while in Wellington.

S.

Awesome service and fantastic food. I highly recommend.

D. L. G.

A must visit for us whenever we visit Wellington. A great range of multigrain, sourdough, rye, and breads of other grains. We're treating ourselves to a different loaf each time we call in.

X. G.

They have such delicious dainty breakfast-y things! The people who work there are always warm and sunny. Consequently, it's on the sunny side of the valley in the morning, and tea at the tables outside is lovely.

G.

Amazing vegan custard and berry tarts - the best lactose free treat!!! Highly recommend

P. K.

On a chilly morning, a toasted hot cross bun and quad shot coffee is perfect.

j. k.

H. H.

Had the Vegan Orange & Almond cake, and the vegan Almond Croissant! So yummy!

R. K.

Your Mince and Cheese Pie has got to be one of the best that I've ever had. I haven't had the chance to come back, but I will make time to visit again next time I go down to Wellington.

J. B.

The BEST... BEST Website, BEST communication, BEST Delivery, BEST looking cakes AND the BEST value for money it seems (not that that is important -just a bonus). I am glad I found you, I will be using no other. NOM NOM

(Translated) I took out Lamington. Unlike Lamington, which is sold at supermarkets, the chocolate cream on the chocolate sponge was not too sweet and it was really delicious. The clerk was also friendly and nice. Now take a cup and go take out coffee! Thank you for the meal~ (Original) ラミントンをテイクアウトしました。スーパーで売っているようなラミントンと違い、チョコーレートのスポンジにチョコレートクリームで甘すぎずすっごくおいしかったです。店員さんもフレンドリーで感じがよかったです。今度はカップを持ってコーヒーをテイクアウトしに行きます！ごちそうさまでした〜
