Reviews of Modaks Espresso
M.
Fantastic coffee. Fantastic chai latte. Fantastic vegan treats!!!! If I could give this place 10 stars, I definitely would. Be sure to stop here!
L.
Called in for coffee and brunch, wasn't disappointed. Great food, lovely service and staff, with welcoming relaxed atmosphere. Recommend you call in and experience for yourself
L.
They were wonderful. Loved my vegan waffles as I am Anaphylaxis to eggs. The staff was awesome and the food wonderful
N.
Lovely coffee, some very enticing food in the cabinet and a great host.
K.
Took a while to order but happy to wait for quality, bacon pancakes were good even good to share. Coffee was great and hot chocolate made my daughter say it was the best she had.
F.
I can only say wonderful things about Modaks as on both of our visits the service and food we're fantastic.
The decor is wonderful with a selection of formica tables and chairs that look like they have just come from the 70's. Images on the walls by local artists.
Breakfast was amazing. My monster eggs kept me going all day. My sons salmon looked fantastic.
The service is fantastic. Will happily visit again.
J.
Small, cute and cozy. Modaks had great food and good service. Our iced drinks were a bit average as we ordered iced mochas and felt there wasn't enough chocolate. 4 stars and will go back for more.
J.
This place is the best coffee and super yummy nibbles, and has amazing atmosphere. I love how many different types of people come, mix, and work here.
It also has impressive artistic atmosphere, and it makes me remember New York with the mix of smart, art, beauty, and amazing coffee. Now I am local and my wife knows if she wants to get me out of a foul mood ....take me to Modaks.
Also....they have HEAPS of gluten free choices and separate fryers for the celiac and gluten intolerant. Which is awesome.
M.
Great coffee and food, love the vibes. Lota of art in the cafe, my favorite is the one by the till - with Van Gogh and Dali sitting in this cafe and looking at the customer 🤣
R.
Best coffee in town, great gluten free menu and great service! Generous with their icing on biscuits
T.
Stopped in for a coffee. Really trendy place, was nice to hang out in. The coffee was really good. Highly recommend Modaks
E.
Awesome experience, we all had waffles & milkshakes - so great 😁 Loved the decor - we will definitely be back ❤️☺️
A.
Very nice waffles with berry compote and grilled banana. For two waffles they are very filling the size is pretty decent and really thick so they really fill you up.
W.
Second time here. Lovely eatery great coffee. I recommend this place.
J.
Friendly and Understanding service all things considered. Covid safety precautions were well abided. Coffee was hot and delicious and a good change from my homebrew. Thanks!
D.
A quirky little cafe with very interesting decor. Generous portions and good food. The fries are coated with a spicy paprika powder coating and delicious.
A.
Wow! That's all I can say about Modaks, coming up on one year of new ownership and the food here is delicious.
Mainly meat free dishes but for the carnivores out there, you won't even miss it. I'd reccomend their vegetarian lasagne or veg out vegan as my top choice dishes.
Great area to sit and admire the artwork, friendly staff and even a small arcade room at the back.
G.
Love modaks! Amazing food, coffee and lovely customer service ❤️
M.
Great friendly service. Loved the atmosphere and brought one of the many artworks that up for sale(Modaks doesn't take a cut from the sale of the art so you need cash. The food was great, hot and tasty. Also very honest as I accidentally left my money card there and they kept it safe for me.
R.
I had been hanging out for a great coffee but instead got a luke warm coffee which tasted burnt and a lot of Sass from the staff when just trying to spark up a nice conversation. Uncomfortable.
C.
The best chai latte and waffles I've had. I love the cabinet options too. The decor and ambience in Modaks is beautiful. The staff are welcoming and friendly.
R.
Funky place for breakfast. I have been going here for years.
F.
I like my coffee but nothing beats a good hot chocolate on a rainy afternoon.
Friendly staff and divine luxurious hot chocolate.
k.
Great coffee and food I always stop in when in town
E.
This place is full of friendly charm, is quaint and uniquely designed and furnished. A must visit if you are in Dunedin. We went here on our honeymoon for breakfast and were pleasantly delighted by the owner's welcome and willingness to have a chat. The food and coffee was extremely good, simple and yum. And came out very quickly. Will be back when we get the chance! Thank you Modaks ❤
D.
It was okay. Eggs on toast were good. Yummy coffee even by WGTN standard. If there was a 3.5 star I’d give em that 👍
S.
Just wanted to say the coffee was really good but I also wanted to say thank you for the empathetic professional service of the waitress about my peanut allergy. It made me feel safe and I will be back for more coffee.
A.
My husband and I had the waffles for lunch. We thoroughly enjoyed them. Lovely staff and great atmosphere. Would give you a 10/10.
C.
Retro cabin in the woods vibe. Not too edgy either which hipster cafes tend to be.
M.
Best cinnamon scrolls ever! Love the food, generous portions, great coffee. I will definitely be back!
E.
Quirky little cafe. Stumbled on it while wandering around from the octagon. They make really rich hot chocolate and frost their cakes really thickly. Perfect for those with a sweet tooth. We also ordered wedges and were really happy with portion size. Plenty of seating.
P.
Lovely rustic decor with art works dotting the walls. Very tasty bacon eggs & coffee to start the day.
L.
Open early and waiter is extremely welcoming and is in touch with the locals who regularly visit. The food arrived quickly and was good value for money.
However, I did notice almost all the food and hot drinks got cold rather quickly. By the time I had almost finished my poached eggs, the bread was cold and the eggs were only lukewarm. That is what needs to be improved but the atmosphere and trendy decorations made it quite nice.
B.
Fave Dunedin Cafe for over ten years. Great options for everyone. Love their vegan options, baking, salads, cabinet and kitchen food always on point. Lovely staff. Amazing atmosphere.
R.
Only had a chai latte but it was good and the staff were friendly. Retro setting and seemed pretty popular. No issues with cleanliness and happy to come back in the future.
n.
Went to Modaks for the first time today with my parents. We all loved our meals, incredible food, great options for everyone and friendly service. Will definitely be back and highly recommend to everyone!
D.
Unique decor, yummy food and coffee, and milkshakes in a jar. Food for vegans, dairy free, gluten free etc and tasty treats for everyone. Friendly staff.
T.
Modaks is my favourite cafe in Dunedin! Fantastic service and super friendly staff, my friends and I usually study here at least once a week and they have no problem with us staying for hours (great wifi too) and always make our visit pleasant. The cabinet food is great, always a good selection and their cooked food is a dream. Awesome selection of vegetarian, vegan and GF foods and great decor to boot.
A.
Great cuppa, awesome atmosphere... never change!
B.
Iced chai and iced mocha were very tasty. Both bagels we got were a little too generously filled resting in then being hard to eat. Aside from that the ambience is very nice and cozy
A.
Went to redeem a 2 for 1 waffles voucher, still not sure that we actually did. The waffles were okay.
H.
Same atmosphere for the last 20 years. Very good coffee and selection of cafe food
R.
Lovely little cafe with allpress coffee and an interesting range of teas. We didn’t eat here. There was free wifi. It was busy but not loud so was a nice place to park up and reenergise.
a.
This place has recently got a New chef and new kitchen staff, the food is now more amazing than ever. The muffins, scrolls ect are baked fresh every morning and the coffee is super. If you haven't been I strongly recommend giving it a go 😊
T.
Got an iced coffee and an iced chai. They were both super delicious and got a cheeky 2 for 1 voucher off a Facebook promotion that they were running. Pickle
l.
great coffee and food in a relaxed vibe
S.
This cafe has a cool atmosphere with board games and cards. Good coffee and friendly service 😊
h.
Fantastic coffee! Great service and cute friendly cafe. My wakes were really dry and bland, other two meals and the table were great and very well priced.
J.
Best coffee shop in town! Brunch is delicious so many options for everyone, great environment and super friendly staff. And the coffee is just perfect 💕
A.
Very filling but for $17.70, was hoping for more topping on my 2 waffles than just 2 bits of bacon, ½ a banana and some maple syrup
J.
Brilliant coffee
Recommend the kick in yo face without milk for a good zing 10/10
S.
The food is lovely. The customer service is good. The atmosphere is noisy and cold. Can help yourself to free water any time.
R.
We used Modak's to cater morning tea for an event. Every dietary requirement was met and it was delicious, an amazing spread. Great value too.
S.
Good food, good coffee, great staff
K.
Very good atmosphere and good staff. Coffee ok. Eggs Benedict with in-house smoked salmon was average (salmon was over cooked). Other food looked good.

Recently discovered this cafe on George St. So much character and clearly a favourite of others from the number of people who were recognised by the staff. Sitting at a table by yourself, having a quiet read or tapping away at your laptop, not a problem. I loved it.
M.
Wow. Good coffee and lovely owner
K.
The best corn fritters I have ever had. Like actually ridiculous
K.
(Translated) A small café-restaurant on Dunedin's main street with very friendly service. The dishes are well prepared and taste good. I had penne and it was delicious. The prices are fair too. I can recommend it with a clear conscience.
