M. W.

Nice wee Cafe. Only ordered a takeaway coffee which was great! Staff wasn't overly friendly, but what do you want, a hug?? Decent selection of cabinet food and there was a pie warmer - always a good thing. Nice interior and parking right outside but fills up quick.

T. B.

Excellent Food Staff are excellent well worth a visit

B. P.

Had lunch with friends here today, food was lovely, pleasant staff, appreciated the vigilance about masks and covid passes, also a lovely breeze circulating. Clean toilets. Chairs now so comfortable. Would go again.

S. M.

Nice place good simple tasty food enjoyed the hollandaise and service, pleasant staff

M. A.

Nice cafe, good coffee, good food, the staff were a little distracted when we were there. Edit 1: good food, the chicken sandwich & beef burger were yum, chips crispy & well cooked. Photos added. Edit 2: Went again, used the entertainment voucher.

I am on a mission at this place, trying to bust the cook and see them fail at perfect eggs on their bene. Its just a matter of time and rhat dam egg will be a fail. You can't fet it perfect everytime. And dont think your litte ruse to provide excellent service will distract me either

M. S.

Great spot for a quick coffee and a snack. Nice quiet little cafe.

M.

Excellent coffee and super friendly staff. Place is always busy when I go. But I love how the staff are always friendly even under pressure. Thanks 😊

R. F.

Great coffee, nice place for a quick snack or light meal.

D.

I told you I'd do it. Haha! Whoever goes here, make sure you give Stu (the owner) a bit of lip. If he likes it, you may get a free coffee 🤣 But in all cases, it is a great place to grab a coffee and bite to eat. The pies and food is really good :) Thank you

z. h.

Nice little cafe coffee was good and the food was OK, looked nice but not amazing taste. Not too many tables and so gets busy easy. Staff were pleasent and service was pretty quick

C. G.

Obliging staff, no problems with a non standard breakfast order. Coffee is good. Service very promptly

J. D.

Love purple weka very friendly staff pancakes are yummy

B. B.

Great food and service! The sausage rolls are a must!

M. Q.

Quite liked in hear when I visited several weeks ago. They made a great cup of coffee and what looked like nice but novel food. Not large but three was a nice atmosphere I stayed about an hour and wasn't pressured to leave. Car parking was ok but could be tight if things were busy. I do like the name its quite unique. Overall a good coffee cafe and bar.

R. T.

Great staff, service and food. Very friendly atmosphere. Had omelette made with only egg whites, which was to die for, nothing was a problem. Will definitely be back

N.

Awesome hot cakes. Owner is brilliant and friendly.

j. r.

Always a lovely coffee at purple weka from Stu and the team.

D. A.

Wonderful service and yummy brunch

J. L.

The coffee was great. The Big breakfast sausages were very over cooked and the toast soggy, mine was good no complaints. Although the staff were lovely, one girl needed an inside voice..

k. h.

Awesome food, warm welcome and strong coffee. What more could you want. One of my favourite places.

J.

Just sitting outside enjoying my latte and chickpea salad. Very very good. Good price. Passing time while waiting for my car at Grooming Solutions not far away. Friendly staff and pleasant atmosphere.

P. L.

Our food was great, service was quick, nice cabinet range to choose from, and a good range on the menu. The coffee was excellent. Decor and sound proofing was average but not a problem at all (nice to see all the old matching draw-leaf timber tables); prices were good. The only minus: the food labels on the display cabinet were completely mixed up, none of them matched up with the food they were in front of (hardly something to get upset about).

C.

Coffee, service perfect. Highly recommended

J.

Best cappuccino I've had. One of the first I've ever bought which hasn't tasted burnt. Be buying from here again. Best cinnamon scrolls too.

S. S.

Great wee find near the CBD, and open on the weekends! Affordable pricing, plenty of parking, and the service was great - food came out super quick!! The corn fritters were divine - I ate them so fast I forgot to take a photo! Thank you.

D.

Customer service was great, funny and friendly, not something you’ll get from other cafes. Coffee is surprisingly nice, uses double shot as standard while most cafes only use single shot. Would definitely come back for more. Thanks Weka team

B. “. T.

They make a great cup of coffee using Hummingbird roasted coffee beans! They also do sandwiches and hot food like fries and chips. Friendly staff and good service. Welcoming atmosphere. Would I go back? Yes 😊

U. P.

WE cane in early and the one chef managed to roll our breakfasts out without a delay. The food was good, the big breafast had perfect eggs , bacon and mushroom, only the sausage was under par due to its blandness. Over all an excellent effort
