S. B.

The people are friendly ,the cafe is our "go to" in Kaitaia. I love the salads and anything I have tried. I visit often and always have a good experience. The added bonus is the freshly brewed coffee of which one can also buy for your weekly shop . They roast on the premises and the smell is divine.

Although very busy, lovely service from the hardworking front staff, a lovely variety of lunch/brunch items available and quality expresso coffee. Highly recommended. Support local, support Kaitaia!

D. J.

Coffee and date scones lovely. Lucky to have the owner talk us through his coffee roasting process. Our new go to

If you want a top breakfast in Kaitaia, have a sleep in and pop in here to start the day. Well priced and great quality cafe food, with a nice atmosphere. Price Indicator: Eggs Bene - $14.50 Long Black - $3.60 Lastly, the staff are super friendly 😄 and the almond croissants were amazing 🥐

Stopped in during a road trip and had by far the best coffee in northland!!! Along with some amazing food

Soy flat white with a shot of caramel was the bomb and loved the salmon bagel. I love salmon and bagel had a generous amount. Have always liked eating here

M. C.

R. B.

Had the most amazing crepes today and lovely turmeric latte highly reccomend

S. B.

Never had a bad experience there, have, however, not been able to get in. My friend bought an eggs Benedict that they said was really quite OK.

N. D.

Bought a piece of carrot cake and banana caramel muffin. The muffin was really good but the carrot cake had smell of the food which was in the glass so couldn't really get a good taste out of it I would suggest not putting carrot cake with all other food in the glass display.

e. b.

Breakfasts were really tasty and great value. Hot chocolates were nice and chocolatey and actually hot! Friendly staff and quick service! Thanks!

A. G. V.

G. D.

Staff are friendly and food is consistently great, bravo! Enjoy all my breakfasts here.

E. W.

Love the place, staff are great and the coffee is the best in town. Good for a light snack while you watch the world go by. Think they need to refresh their main menu though, I go there often and the menu has been the same for more than a year.

c. m.

Awesome little cafe, everything is spotless, clean minimalist style and attention to detail is spot on Bro. Sweet as

L. H.

Nice comfy spot and great team

P. R.

On of the best Cafe's in Kaitaia. Delicious cooked and counter food. The red velvet cake is super good (so says my fiance). Well worth a visit to sit and watch the world go by.

P. H.

C. S.

Good good food. Very good selection catering to vego's as well as everything else. Very pleasant and obliging staff. Good coffee. Show your Gold Card. Well worth a visit and you will be back again.

A. H.

I go there almost every day for a little treat and coffee, the kindest staff and the best food! Always new stuff in the salad bowls and new kinds of quiches/pastas and all sorts, 110% recommend for anyone that visits kaitaia. From Mum & I

b. s.

I had the Cajun chicken wrap and it was actually quite delicious! It was presented well, it came out open so you could see the contents. Also I had the coconut and caramel slice and that was quitegood to. Pleasantly surprised

C. E.

Good place for lunch or a snack in Kaitaia. Coffee and food both very good, reasonable price too.

J. D.

Nice fresh tasty selection of cafe food and good coffee.

R. D.

My first won't be my last, the kale bene was amazing, flavoursome and subtle, it really hit the spot! The coffee was excellent as well.

J. O.

The cafe appears to be run by kids on school vacation. They got our coffee order wrong. Then completely forgot another coffee, eventually bringing it in a glass when it had been ordered to go. Coffee wasn't that great

T. L.

I ordered the Rama-Gee here. It's a local twist of poached eggs, hollandaise avocado and a few extra surprises thrown in. As an entitled middle class Englisman who live in Surrey eating poached eggs and avocado is almost a daily occurrence. So I believe im well placed to pass judgement. This is was the best I have ever eaten. I had to restrain myself from immediately ordering a second portion.

D. S.

Excellent service, lovely food and awesome coffee.

E. W.

Very nice didn't have to wait long for our food .good service.

P. P.

Great little cafe with a great staff and really good food. If you're going for breakfast I'd definitely recommend the big gecko breakfast

M. M.

Really nice food with great choice. Plenty of room to sit with friends, from booths to tables. Food choice ranges from simple muffins to elaborate salads with extras

M. R.

Really good coffee. Need to ask for double shot though. Food also really good

H. H.

Lovely little cafe! amazing service and the food/drinks are great!

Came in for a takeaway cuppa. Saw the pastry selection, felt the welcoming vibe, decided to stay a while. Recommended!

V. H.

One of best cafe restaurants in town 👌

Great cafe in Kaitaia...the choice was great and delicious. Heaps of gluten free options in fact practically everything can be adapted for gluten free.

C. C. T.

Te Rerenga Wairua is the northwesternmost tip of the Aupouri Peninsula, at the northern end of the North Island of New Zealand. Cape Reinga is more than 100 km north of the nearest small town of Kaitaia Gecko cafe is a great place to stop by and get a coffee obviously rest area Parking available. Will stop by again next time

M. W.

Great Service, but the food is just way to expensive for pretty small dishes. The salmon bagel has like 5 tiny pieces of salmon on it.

C. K.

NiCE! Roasting coffee. Freshly made food. Great service.

Staff are not well trained. Food is hit and miss. Most of the food is forgetable or under par. However the coffee is the one redeeming feature. Staff 0/3. Food 0-1/3. Coffee 2.5-3/3.
