Reviews of The Verandah Cafe & Function Centre
A.
Decent size breakfast meal. We had the Lake Breakfast. It was OK but lots of individual components, nothing to bring the plate together and a bit dry.
R.
A very pleasant brunch experience for 3 of us, with 2 of us from North of Auckland joining a friend from the Waikato. Generous plates of food served with cool refreshing drinks in a warm relaxed outdoor setting. It was like finding an oasis after 107 days of lockdown in the Auckland "desert/prison"
n.
Not overly busy . Excellent customer service. Prices are pretty much up there.Meal portions are on the small end,but then I am a bigger person.(no left overs).
Otherwise enjoyed the overall experience.
A.
Hard to provide a write-up : mainly because of Covid conditions. Very long line of customers due to the fact that so much documentation has to be produced per customer, which is taking time to process. Obviously a popular place: lake edge. Very busy the day I visited so hard to be negative when there are many families lining up for service.
Staff were efficient checking necessary documents.
K.
Went for breakfast and tried their Melt Challenge entry. Service was good, one of our orders came not as described and they were quick to sort that for us. The drinks were great too. Plus the location is fantastic, the playground is right there.
M.
Good staff and location. My Bacon muffin was nice but the kumera in the salad was only half cooked. Maybe firm kumera looks better in salads but I like mine soft. .Two members of our party had a banana cream donut. The filling was nice but they both commented that the donut itself did not seem fresh.
B.
Great view from the veranda, reasonable food, poor selection of drinks and expensive compared to the central city, location fabulous, but don't step in what the ducks leave behind.
J.
Great cafe, with a selection of deli & menu options to enjoy while overlooking the lake.
B.
Cozy coffee shop with a yummy breakfast menu. Great place to hang out after a walk in the lake. We loved the macadamia granola with coconut yogurt and tofu egg scramble. Friendly staff as well.
A.
Nice and inviting location. Good views of the lake. Drinks were delicious. Food was great.
G.
Fantastic place to eat on any day. Sit inside or out. Fantastic views of Hamilton Lake.
Highly recommended.
D.
A large place with table and 💺 well spread out good seating inside and outdoor seating with good view of the lake and playground .. if your children are playing .. wheelchair ♿ accessible .
I ordered the mango cupcake bacon avocado and ranch sandwich 🥪 😋
Very tasty and delicious
S.
I attended a work related session in one of the function rooms, which was catered for by by the venue. I have a long list of food allergies and was very impressed by the chef and what he created for me to eat, in view of how limiting my long list is.
A.
Very easy to order via scan to menu. Order and pay at your table. True contactless.
T.
Fantastic! I am super fussy and this place was awesome. The food is real! No packet salmon or hash browns here. Service was super fast and friendly and the location is simply the best in all of Hamilton. We will definitely be back next time we come down from Auckland. Yes it's better than most Auckland Cafe's. Well done The Verandah Cafe.
T.
Excellent venue for our business meetings Roomy, private, clean, close to toilets and cafe We use their catering service Nice food and coffee ☕
s.
bit expensive great location at lake.need a fish and chip shop.just that everybody takes there families to the lake.and alot of people take there takeaways to the lake.every now and then,everyone likes fish and chips at the lake just a thought.need free bbq's around lake.just another thought.location is at lake entrance on hospital side 👍💯
v.
Delicious oatmeal with fresh fruit, dried fruit, cinnamon and coconut. Love that they offer DF, GF and use free range products. Very happy with my breakfast and the view is lovely.
A.
We had a presentation here for work and it was great, super fast communication from Scott and everything was so easy from the initial arrangement to setup on the day :-)
J.
The food was tasty, the coffee good and the service reasonably fast, and if I only rated it on those three things it would have been 5 stars... However it was quite expensive and the tables were cleared but not wiped and I had to use my napkin to clean the table... so 3 stars it is! I would come again but possibly not at peak lunch time. The lake and park makes up for it though 😁
R.
Bit pricey and food average overall. Took AGES for the ordered items to come. Shame as is a lovely venue.
S.
Very nice, views are amazing. Pity it rain but still a good place to go and spend time .
A.
Delicious chips! But mediocre service. Small sample size but they told my wife it would be 5m then it was 10 to 15. She had to be like "are those my chips?" cos they were sitting there. Then they were super delicious so I went back to order more and had THE EXACT SAME EXPERIENCE. Still yum tho 😛
M.
We both had great coffee and food, with a fantastic atmosphere. The service was super friendly and the location is nice for a bit of R&R with a walk around the lake.
i.
Yum food! Awesome customer service! Very happy🥰TY
F.
Awesome location right next to the big playground and lake so great option especially if you have kids. Coffee was decent but sadly food quality was below average. Had the chicken schnitzel burger and the beef burrito. Schnitzel was very dry and the sauce taste was too tangy. Guess its only popular due to its location.
A.
A very popular place with fantastic views of Lake Rotoroa within the Hamilton Domain ...... Lovely food and coffee and a fantastic playground very close by for the kids
l.
One of the first few places we saw on our New Zealand visit. Nice little events place with a view of the lake.
D.
Not too badly priced and decent service. Took a little bit to get our food but wasn't a massive issue. Also, be careful on the sofas. They're very soft and you sink into them so you end up being quite a way from each other. Nice food though.
J.
Good service. Yummy food. Amazing views.
A.
Nice location, something for everyone, views, walks, flower gardens, playground, good food, good parking. Good mobility access to Cafe.
s.
I would have given a 5 star if my 26$ meal didn't have slimy brown lettuce hidden under the fresh stuff because the rest was mouth watering. I would have made a complaint there & then but I down played it as was having a very important meet so I thought I would do a review instead. My cappuccino was absolutely beautiful. Sadly only a small detail fail but its disappointing when such a beautiful meal.
D.
Loved the view of the lake.
Enjoyed the coffee too
C.
good view, friendly staff, great coffee
A.
A fairly average experience. Had to ask for my table to be wiped down and 2 quiirts of disinfectant on a cloth and a quick wipe over seemed inadequate. Food choice was limited but the coffee was okay. Service at the counter was friendly, Outlook great, atmosphere was average
N.
Great variety of food and drinks. Large cafe so easy to get prams in and out.
6.
Great place for a bite to eat while your children play in the playground literally just outside. Also a good place to have a coffee after your jog around the Hamilton lake, good quality coffee and food
D.
Slow service . Miserable staff. I think they need to employ more so the poor staff aren't so busy
P.
Went for lunch with friend. Friend wanted to order the Fish and chips meal, but found there was no fish available. Settled for Chicken. I had prawn and salad meal. Serving size was large And prawns lovely
J.
Always quality food, presentation and service is great.
R.
Scott and the amazing team at The Verandah hosted our Royal New Zealand Plunket Trust Stakeholder Function. The staff were brilliant, the food divine and the venue itself is perfect, showcasing the beautiful lake and surrounding gardens. Loads of parking and well located makes it the perfect choice for any function requirements.
G.
We Had our work function here. Nice atmosphere awesome view of the lake. It was worth the experience. Good place to have any type of event at. The only thing that let it down was the food was cold. If you're going to have food at least use warmers to heat the food. Thank you.
B.
Very nice wedges but could do a bit more variety in the sandwich line
L.
We had our work Christmas party at The Verandah. Have heard nothing but positive feedback from our everyone who attended. Great location with amazing views, food and service was exceptional. Thanks to Kerri and the team for an awesome night.
J.
Good food, service a bit slow and slow queues and coffee can take 20 minutes. But do enjoy the food and views.
S.
Lovely food and a great outlook. My family came in with food allergies and they went out of their way to find thing and create new meal options for my wife and son.
Very happy with all aspects of this cafe and we will definitely be coming again
A.
Lots of open space on the deck and easy to keep focus on everyone as they play out front.
Y.
$7.50 for an iced chocolate and it's made with water and tastes like water. I can get 5L of milk for that 250ml price. A smear of chocolate sauce on the cup doesn't make it an iced chocolate. This was disappointing. Everything else is O.K/average. Beautiful setting.
H.
Been here a number of times now. Coffee isn't too bad. Bit of a wait at times. So might need another barista behind the coffee machine at times. A few different seating arrangements with tables to accommodate small or large groups, some lounges for something more casual or intimate. Just being by the lake is a bonus.
Q.
Really nice venue, pretty good cafe too
J.
Lovely place with great hot food and coffee (eggs Benedict with mushrooms delish). Friendly staff, great music (80s vibe happening today which I am so here for 🤣), brilliant view of the lake and Mt Pirongia. The lake, amazing playgrounds (including a new parkour one)and cafe are an asset to the city
S.
When we needed to find a venue at short notice, The Verandah came to the party. Communication with Kerri prior to the event was prompt and efficient and everything was perfect on the day. Fabulous catering - plenty of really tasty food for our large group. A perfect location with ample parking. We will be back.
G.
Had coffee with a friend, beautiful clean spacious area
J.
Venue and location really lovely. Front counter staff could be a little more welcoming. Had a long wait for a cuppa tea and coffee. The table staff were very friendly though.
R.
Food is a bit pricey, coffee is not that good but the ice cream was nice!
S.
Delicious Breakfast 😋
J.
The Verandah hosted a memorial for my mum. The staff were wonderful, helpful and willing to make everything perfect. I highly recommend them for your next event. The catering was great as well along wih the bar service.
J.
Everytime iv brought food here it's been average. Nothing special. I'd avoid eating here if I wasnt visiting the playground too.
Coffees are ok.
Milkshakes are ok.
Ice creams are ridiculous priced.
Cafeteria needs a good wipe down and clean.
3 stars for the great and friendly staff.
J.
The price might be a little bit higher than other Cafe but you will find the food very delicious. I have experience with the breakfast menu so far and you can not go wrong. Especially the granola is one of the best I have experienced in a Cafe.
J.
Clean rest rooms
A good menu for morning or after noon tea or maybe a meal. you can get it all with a relaxing view of the lake. They also have a conference center. there is also a children's play ground to keep youngsters happy
V.
Always easy to deal with these guys for our corporate functions. Well prepared, helpful, good food and great venue. Thanx for another successful day!
M.
Nice place for a coffee and cake
Others were getting nice looking meals also.
Close to the hospital if you have been there visiting.
Nice views over the lake.
S.
Food was ok. GF menu non existent. Staff could be better trained. Ordered cauliflower soup and got mushroom soup.
D.
Very good meal - watch out for the sparrows
J.
Have been to this cafe many times and I would recommend it on the weekend when its busy. There seems a much larger food selection and better service. By comparison during the week (Monday) it was empty and uninviting.
Has the fabulous children's playground and Hamilton lake right outside.
R.
A lovely place to enjoy lunch in Hamilton. Lake on your doorstep and an amazing kiddies playground to keep the little ones amused, for hours. Was disappointed with our little mans chicken tenders meal, for an item on the kids menu the tenders were a wee bit spicy for him 😟 the fries went down a treat tho. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting.
C.
Loved it ❤ nice food nice surroundings ❤
M.
Ice cream was so delicious 😋
L.
The venue is always a stunning one at the Lake. The team assisting us were friendly and nothing was a problem. Our event went very smoothly and everyone found the food to be amazing.
V.
Great location next to the lake and playground, was a busy Sunday morning so coffee took a long time to arrive. The potato wedges I ordered actually arrived first and were gigantic! Acoustics are not great for conversation. Tables are slow to be cleared. A tad on the expensive side for Hamilton.
S.
Food is okay and its very pricey.
C.
Great spot by the lake with good selection of food and drinks. Seating is extensive and provides great selection indoors and outdoors. Outdoors is under cover so ideal on a sunny day. Staff friendly and helpful.
B.
Nothing not to like. Good food, good service and frieny staff. Have been their before and would go again.
J.
It is a great place to hang out.coffee not too bad but food is over expensive and not that super for an average kiwi family to go and enjoy lunch in their own back yard.but then you may feel differently and that is ok too! Nice views though
R.
Friendly staff nice food
F.
Lovely coffee and lovely view over the lake
I.
Defines Hamilton good food excellent view best place for a family with children to hang out
G.
It was very busy and the line to order was very slow moving.If you are in a hurry avoid busy times. Good coffee and nice food menu. Not a lot of small snack foods like savories or sandwiches, everything is quite big. But good.
r.
We had our son's 3rd birthday here on Sunday.
I can be complimentary enough of the staff. They were all so friendly, helpful and accommodating, from the time of booking, taking orders, bringing out food and drinks, storing the cake for us etc.
And reasonably priced also.
Would recommend to anybody looking for a stress free environment for a function 🙂
P.
Lovely setting, lots of room.
K.
Very slow and busy, nice food good coffee but forgot my vanilla in my latte
J.
Excellent service thank you. I was worried because I had never actually seen inside the room and had to make all the arrangements form out of town but when we arrived there on the day everything was taken care of.
A.
Used the conference room facility for a course. COVID QR code very visible at entrance...of course used. Lovely view out the floor to ceiling windows.
M.
Excellent Cafe, wonderful views of lake, inside and great outside seating, great coffee ☕ nice cooked & cabinet food, friendly staff, close to playgrounds, lake side walks, ❤️
T.
Great location with great view to the lake and kids park. Food wise, your usual brunch cafe with exception of the potato hash. Coffee not bad at all.
g.
Their food is good, abit pricey but its worth every cent. For a meal of wedges with bacon, cheese & spring onion & a drink you have to have atleast $20 on you. So dont go there if you have shraps. Unless youre going for coffee.
S.
The did was good and all but it took wayyy to long, I wanted half an hour for some fries
N.
Went once, professional staff enjoyed coffee and cake, lovely outlook on to lake, very busy, but relaxing. Went second time asked for help. My husband and I both wanted slice and coffee. Young woman slapped 2 pieces on one plate like she really didnt want to be there, or us to be there. Really an inviting experience. Never been back. Plenty of other places around.
C.
Good coffee and fast :D
M.
Great or bettet thsn last time. Less prople around. Beaut day. Food, hot choc, coffee. Round lake walk always good
A.
Friendly and efficient service. Nicd variety of food. Good coffee with reasonable prices.
w.
Had a great coffee and view of the lake was great. Just wish they opened up earlier for us early people.
D.
Great location and staff are mostly friendly. Good selection of items but prices here are definitely more than you'd pay at other similar cafes. Hard to beat the view of the lake though.
M.
Tasty menu, great portion sizes. A little expensive, but you really get what you pay for. Would highly recommend this place to anyone.. I would also suggest not trying to eat a bowl of chips with your main..unless you're sharing with one or two people.
K.
Excellent service and food for our wedding breakfast. Thank you for such great service for our large group during a peak period.
d.
Lovely tidy well run establishment with delicious food and drinks🥞🧇🍝☕
Awesome costumer service 👏
Z.
We had our end of year Christmas function here. The food was good though the options were minimal. The weather was terrible so we couldn't go outside but the venue still managed to cater for our 80+ group very well.
G.
Great spot for family's.
T.
Great location with great view to the lake and kids park. Food wise, your usual brunch cafe with exception of the potato hash. Coffee not bad at all.
R.
Such a beautiful setting with a Great Lake walk. But food fairly average.
J.
Bit pricy but great place to be with kids at playground
t.
Great play ground for the kids of all ages
J.
I suppose I just don't like what chefs cook these days. Rump steak would have been fine on its own but in cherry mustard and sprinkled with herbs, no thank you. A bakery steak pie with chips, a grilled tomato and some garden peas would have been better than the lukewarm dry kumara and fish fillets with red onion and lemon pieces. A lot of older people like good, plain food
V.
Lovely spot. Too bad the counter food is both way over priced and unappetizing.
J.
food just so so. friendly staff.
L.
Very pricey but it's convenient with the playground right there.
C.
Overpriced food good service great view good for kids or family
D.
Popular cafe with a moderate amount of indoor and outdoor seating.
Due to this being a popular spot positioned to overlook Hamilton Lake, it does get incredibly busy here so therefore, expect an extended wait for both service (queues to order at the counter) and meal/barista fulfilment (delivery to customer) at various times throughout the day.
A recent change in the kitchen has seen the inclusion of a paleo/keto menu option which is to be commended.
A.
This cafe is an amazing spot for lunch, an ice cream, or even a wedding after party. Great location. The service is slower than I would’ve thought.
C.
The verandah Cafe is set in a beautiful location, is good for dogs and offers some great food options. It is quite expensive though, and the coffee can sometimes be a bit hit and miss depending on the barista working.
J.
It's got a nice view on good days, but I wouldn't go out of my way to come here for the food (it's OK, but the main reason to come here is the view).
J.
Great place great food definitely a great place to go. Totally beautiful to walk round the lake. Playground the kids just love. A must
B.
It was a nice place to sit down and have a rest after I'd been biking all day. It certainly isn't the cheapest café I've been to in terms of price and quality but it was fairly decent.
B.
Yum yum yum yum yum....... 2 visits in 2 days while commuting to Waikato from Auckland. HIGHLY recommend the Waffles with Manuka Honey and the Eggs Beni with fresh smoked salmon! Just what I needed while moving my 84 y/old mum
C.
Staff very friendly and it's a great place to have a snack after a walk around the lake.
C.
Tasty food. They have cabinet and menu items, plus ice cream scoops. There is often a bit of a wait here as it is very popular.
M.
3 stars for the settings off this place. When I was in a hospital before labour with gestational diabetes this was the place I went for a walk and have a cuppa. Unfortunately, there are no food choices for people with diabetes so I couldn't enjoy the food.
L.
Foods good
Service is good view is great.
Worth a visit
A.
Great service. Great food .. caffe atmosphere.. relaxing .. ok parking .. great clean loos.

D.
Nice venue and view. A little bit pricey. Kitchen was closed after 3pm Saturday.
A.

b.
Great food, rather pricy tho
J.
Very nice. Good food and location for a small conference style meeting.
W.
Too slow service. It doesn’t deserve this price, we wait more than half an hour. Don’t wanna come here again, although a great location for scenery.
K.
Just a basic cafe, not too flash but nice for a quick bite to eat or drink after going for a walk or taking the kids to the playground
S.
Too bad that this is the only cafe at the lake. Quite expensive for the quality of food served, and no vegan options. Ridiculous also that they close at 4 pm in winter and 5pm in summer.
R.
I went to a ANZ workshop and it was very well organized venue.The catering was good but they didn't indicate what each item was?
J.
Nothing exciting at all.
The food is ok
The view is ok
The service is a bit slow.
All in all I'd go somewhere else if you've got the choice
S.
Lovely place to visit had a beautiful coffee and scone. Service was great and view of the lake beautiful
J.
Expensive considering the food was pretty average. Would take my own food next time I visit the lake.
D.
Very small meals for the price.
Service, cleanliness and coffee great.
L.
Great place to meet when you want to talk and keep the kids occupied at the amazing playground that the cafe us situated in. However, the food and drinks are satisfactory....could be a lot better.
R.
Busy lake side cafe. Food and coffee passed the test. Will return.
L.
Really nice location but the service was a little slow but very popular
