Reviews of Coffee Pen

C. S.

We stumbled onto this quaint little cafe when we were heading to another brunch spot. Such a fortunate change of events because this place is such a gem! The coffee is good but the lasagna is even better. It’s on the sweeter side but I love it. The seating is also on the outdoors. Fancy some refreshing breeze while enjoying your meal, this is the spot. My Sunday has been brightened. Thank you coffee pen.

S. S.

Was recommended to come here for their wagyu beef pie and coffee. Perfect start to our Saturday. Their management of a one-in-one-out system is great during covid times. Outdoor seating was cozy and tranquil.

D. Y.

Good coffee ! Food was pretty tasty (rustic homemade vibes). Small place so can be hard to find a table, best is to do takeaways.

G. B.

Fabulous coffee and food. Everything is delicious (I’ve sampled widely). Relaxed atmosphere with great people. The perfect little local cafe 👍🏼

J.

The staff are very friendly, the cafe itself is cute and the food is above average but I’m not sure anything warrants the cult-like love people have for Coffee Pen… but hey, it’s good.

L.

Great coffee and love their foods! Lasagne is so cheesy and not salty. Coffee pen will be one of our weekend routine :)

I. S.

Great coffee and amazing food. Lunch is cooked fresh every day and is always different and tasty. The lasagna is great definitely worth a try. Always enjoy my visit to Coffee Pen.

C. S.

It is hard to capture true beauty but what has been achieved at the coffee pen can only be described as excellence… It was but a fateful day that we have stumbled upon a diamond in the rough.

Is the perfect tiramisu actually... a tart? 5 stars awarded to this divine creation from my local @coffee_pen_ Not a soggy bottom in sight with a beautiful fudgy layer separating cream from wicked chocolate brownie base. Full marks for the flavours, textures, espresso kick, and avoidance of choke-inducing levels of cocoa on top. All bow down to the masters of the tiramisu quest.

A.

Our first time doing click and collect from coffee pen, tried the eggplant sandwich and katsu chicken brioche. It did not disappoint at all, will definitely come back for more.

E. K.

Coffee is nice. Staff is kind. However the place is a little bit small.

A.

Such a cute place! Lasagna was yum but the matcha tart was actually so v v good

E.

Update: downgraded to 4 star as second visit Ruben and banana bread was dry. :( Great food. All home made and a lot of it still in its baking. Limited seating of which nearly all is outside. Seems to be Japanese owned.

C. G. P.

A super little local spot, great lunch options and choice coffee.

J. K.

Literally one of the BEST coffee in Auckland. Very small but 2 long tables outside so when it's sunny, it's such a nice place to grab brunch and coffee with a friend. Quiet atmosphere and homebaked goods like quiche, lasagne and desserts available. Top 3 favorite go-to cafes.

E. G.

Wholesome vibe, great pies (big enough to share) and good coffee.

t. d.

Great coffee and friendly staff. The banana bread is awesome as well

A.

Pretty damn good. Seems like the Reuben sandwich had endless layers and the banoffee pie was fantastic. I also bought some cool Japanese t shirts off them.

J. A.

Great selection of food, nice outdoor eating area and really really good coffee. Missed out on their Banoffee Pie but will be back to try and beat the rush!

D. Y.

Food are delicious. Great dessert. Coffee is great value for the quality. Good atmosphere with great service.

L.

Had Flatwhite and banana loaf. Beautiful homemade banana loaf, nice coffee! Small cool place. Love it:)

J. K.

Very nice coffee. Very consistent, fresh, they will make it however you like. One of my favourite places to get coffee

A. Y.

Very nice coffee but will be better if they can use ceramic coffee rather than take away cup

A. B.

Amazing gourmet pies and hot food. Great coffee and excellent staff. Favourite Sunday lunch hangout. Cakes are extraordinary too.

S. T.

Given all the great reviews, I was excited to try this place but was disappointed in the service. I stood reading the menu and was about to order when a regular comes up to the counter. The barista ignores me, asks if the regular is ready to order then proceeds to take his order first, not checking if I'm ready even though I was first in line. I ordered to eat in but asked for coffee in takeaway cups and received a curt "no since you're eating here". I explained nicely that we were keen to eat quickly as we had to be somewhere else soon after and the barista stares at me for a solid 5 to 10 seconds and just shrugs and says no to the takeaway cups. No smile, no hint of trying to explain, just a rude experience. I get that service staff aren't paid for emotional labour but seeing how friendly he was to the person before me, I'm not entirely sure why the change in attitude and I didn't see any reason for not showing a hint of kindness in comparison to the other patrons. Food was decent, we ordered 2 sandwiches which were yum and a matcha cheesecake that was a bit on the sweet side with not much matcha flavour.

K. H.

Great little Cafe hidden among beautiful trees and no transport as this is a dead end street.

S. A.

I love walking from my house for a fresh Match cheesecake and a gorgeous flat white. This is an awesome spot for a weekend coffee or week day afternoon treat yourself Cheese cake. They are one of the best spots in Auckland.

D.

wonderful homemade food that deserves its price. the specialty coffee is also wonderful, and served by some very friendly faces. go on a sunny day and sit outside under the trees. this place is popular for a reason — protect it auckland!!

M. W.

Tucked away down a little side street in Newton, this is one of the greatest little cafes in Auckland. The service and the coffee is great and the food is simple but amazing. A great choice of fresh sandwiches, baked treats and pastries.

A. P. J.

Very nice laid back cafe, bit hard to find but once you're there it's a real treat. Next time I'm there I'm going to have a cake, they look dicious. Sit by the outside heater in winter or use one of their blankets.

E.

Always exceptional coffee and treats

W. L.

Absolutely love it and will visit whenever I get a chance. Best coffee in Auckland I have had so far, and the homemade food is also great.

R. M.

Amazing ! top coffee and Tiramisu tart need I say more ( I will ) rich ,big, chocolatey, creamy ,Soo decadent all other adjectives. Must go back for the other pretty looking food I saw. No photos as I stuffed my face😊

A. O.

I have coffee here every morning and it is exceptional. The couple who run Coffee Pen are lovely. They offer very attentive service and lovely, home cooked food. Top notch!

M. C.

The coffee here is second to none. Of all cafes I've been to in Auckland, the flat whites here are just on a whole new level in flavour and texture. Haven't tried the food yet but I trust it is just as amazing.

J. K.

Good times with friendly people and great coffee

A. C.

Great coffee and amazing food. Not a great amount of seating, but well worth it if you can get a seat

M. A.

Great food made from scratch, and the coffee (and hot chocolate) is pretty epic. Auckland's somewhat best kept secret, but a really great cafe, and if you follow the on Instagram you'll get a sneak peek of some of the food being for sale that day.

R. D.

Best coffee shop in Auckland. Yas is an amazing guy. Serves only the top 5% best coffee in the world, grown in the best producing countries and freshly roasted in Auckland. Service is great and food is so yum. Strongly recommended.

B. P.

Really good sandwiches and desserts!

R. M.

Great coffee. I'm dying to try their baked goods as they look and sound amazing. Also excellent customer service. Very friendly and engaging.

L. D.

Great little local cafe. AMAZING homemade desserts (go early!), good coffee, fresh yummy savoury food available also. Friendly staff !!

S. H.

Awesome cofee, cool cafe, a bit hard to get seating though. Great on a nice day.

R. C.

Just had the tiramisu tart and a long black but both were fantastic. Tart had a lovely cookie base and rich choc ganache with tiramisu on top. Costs a bit more than your average tart but totally worth it. Coffee was expertly made.

J. S.

Came here after a hike to Mount Eden for the best homemade blueberry muffins & coffee! The staff were super friendly, and they had great food choices too.

H.

Everything is great here. Coffee, foods, staff, music... I love all of them. During Level 3, they are open 9am-1pm. Text your order and pick up.

M. L.

Awesome Cafe - Highly recommend. Great food at good prices too. The owners make the difference - so welcoming.

D. M.

Nice coffee with a different nutty flavour. Some yummy slices there too. Seems like not much seating but have always been able to grab a chair.

G.

Best coffee in Eden Terrace!!! Its place to go and get a take away coffee.

c. y.

Best ever

J. A.

Great coffee and tiramisu tart heheh... At around 11.50am every day they have a cooked lunch just come out of the oven. Something different every day. My favourite so far is Pulled Pork Burrito and MeatLoaf with Duck Fat Roasted Potatos (mmmmm)

J.

Everything Coffee Pen has to offer is incredible. From the Banoffee Pie and Lasagna, to the warm interior and friendly staff. You can't skip this place.

S.

The gingerbread is so good!! Great coffee and people too

J. S.

A classic hard to find cafe. Great food and great reputation.

M. P. (.

Great little place in a lovely space. Coffee in my opinion is the best in the area hands down. Food is all homemade from scratch including corned beef. Highly recommended!

D. L.

Fantastic coffee and food and very friendly staff, definitely a great place to stop for a break :)

A. R.

Cute coffee shop, great spot to chill out at on a nice warm day. The food’s tasty.

L.

Been here twice now, and reason I visited is because of eatlitfood on ig, I never regretted my decision, the cakes are amazing, the halloumi sandwich was juicy, the ambience of the small cafe is just heart warming and intimate to see people cooking and baking behind the counter in a small space.

P. P.

Always fresh delicious and super filling. Fav chicken sandwich and Pumpkin cheesecake is the best!

G. H.

Nice coffee. The food looked nice but I found the smell of cooking garlic overbearing. Limited seating, probably best for takeout.

J. S.

A great cafe! Excellent coffee, food and super friendly staff.

B. Z.

I love Coffee Pen. Whenever I’m nearby, I go there for lunch. Just unpretentious, delicious food and the desserts are amazing too.

(Translated) I went to Coffee Pen, which I wanted to go someday, for the first time ♪ I heard that it is run by a Japanese person, but the food has a good taste as rumored, and it is 100% homemade. Coffee was also very good and very satisfying 🥰 Auckland's Banoffee Pies Top 10 was voted on the internet the other day, including Coffee Pen. If you like banoffee pie, order without hesitation 👌 Many cafe banoffee pies are so sweet that the toffee (caramel part) is too sweet, but the Coffee Pen is not too sweet and is exquisitely adjusted, and the lightly effective spices are very balanced. I was able to understand the high skill of the chef in one bite. I also ate Hash brown Bacon Frittata. This is also a very well-balanced and delicious gem, and it is very delicious with the delicious taste of vegetables in the mouth, the saltiness of bacon, and the aroma of potatoes! Coffee was good again 🥰 I found out that everything was a good taste and popular cafe just once ♪ I would like to go again soon and try another dish ♪ (Original) いつか行きたいと思っていたCoffee Penに今回初めて行って来ました♪ 日本人の経営だと聞いていたのですが噂通りのセンスのある料理に、100%ホームメイドという素晴らしさ。コーヒーもまたとても良く大満足でした🥰 先日ネットの投票でオークランドのBanoffee Piesトップ10がでおり、その中にCoffee Penも入っていました。バノフィー好きとしては迷い無くオーダー👌 多くのカフェのバノフィーはトフィー(キャラメル部分)が甘すぎるくらい甘いのですが、Coffee Penのは甘すぎる事無く絶妙な加減で、軽く効いたスパイスが非常にバランスが取れていてシェフの技術の高さが一口で理解できました。 他にもHash brown Bacon Frittataを食べました。こちらもとてもバランスが取れた美味しい逸品で、口の中にタップリの野菜の旨味とベーコンの塩加減、芋の香ばしさが相まって非常に旨い！ コーヒーがまた良かった🥰 全てがセンス良くて人気のカフェだと一回行っただけでわかりました♪ また近いうちに行って別のお料理も試してみたいです♪

B.

(Translated) Amazing coffee! It was delicious! Such a wholesome, relaxing, ikigai spot. Loved it ❤️ (Original) Amazing coffee! おいしいかった! Such a wholesome, relaxing, ikigai spot. Loved it ❤️
