Reviews of Ajuna Eatery
M.
Good food and great service. Interior is very nice but i decided to sit outside on a sunny day sipping cappuccino which by the way is also quite aromatic as usual. Ordered sort of a big breakfast set with reasonable pricing and good presentation.
S.
One of the best vegan breakfasts I’ve had. Super flavour, nicely balanced meal just perfect for lunch. Had the scrambled tofu which was a delight to the taste buds. Service was excellent as well. Highly recommend.
S.
Great customer service,good menu,clean little cafe,my daughter and I enjoyed our breakfast, the sourdough bread was a little hard,toasted too long,my only issue.
V.
Cafe was super packed while visited on Saturday but quality of food maintained. Served by friendly cashier at the counter and service was quick despite the crowd. Plenty of choices on both menu and cabinet food. My CLT came with large portion and tasted great!
c.
One of best Napier cafes! Nice interior with really really friendly Staffs I bet you will be surprised. As you can see, No wonder how amazing dishes we were served. Very tasty, Nice decorations and Nice pics.
A.
Had the pleasure of having breakfast at the Ajuna Eatery and was delighted to find a menu that is unique and does not disappoint. Great meal options that show a lot of thought and offering something a little different. Services is out standing, decor is original and attractive and very centrally located. You will not be disappointed, a must when you visit Napier.
J.
I found the staff are friendly and well trained the service is quick and efficient. I enjoy the food it is fresh and well prepared a good variety and not expensive with adequate portions. Coffee is excellent and water and glasses abundant. The exterior tables facing North which soak up the morning sun in winter are always clean and ready to be used.
S.
Great food, crazy cashier.
Wish they'd hurry up and fix the sparkling water tap!
P.
Funky place with personality-plus staff. Counter service, tap water freely available. Portions are generous - a child's size scrambled eggs and bacon was more than sufficient for my partner and I couldn't finish my smashed avocado on toast with scrambled eggs. Superb quality too.
S.
Great atmosphere! Nice food. A place you can enjoy the Art Deco town in a nice ray of sunshine, just like what we did. Very keen hospitality. The dude behind the till was very cool with his Rick Owens boots.
S.
This was the best meal I have eaten in my entire life. Absolutely the best thing I have ever eaten and I miss it daily. Everything about this CLT write down to the garnish on the bun to the juiciness of the chicken and lettuce. I am over the moon that I had the opportunity to eat this delicious meal. I would recommend this to everyone and anyone that asks (apart from vegans). To this day I am so blessed and grateful that I was able to eat this CLT and I would 10/10 go back and try it once again :)

PREMIUM QUALITY BREAKFAST
Atmosphere: this eatery is in the heart of Napier CBD and surrounded by the Art Deco buildings. The eatery itself has a lovely, unique style/decor with teal walls and some stained glass.
Food: I had an avo smash and it was the best one I’ve had to date. Generous avo, delicately poached egg, healthy tomato pieces and a smear of lemon infused sauce laced across the front of the plate. I also enjoyed the fancy hash brown. Sublime.
Service: it felt like it took about 30 seconds for my coffee and 3 minutes for my avo smash. Excellent. I have found coffee in New Zealand generally okay, but this coffee was particularly good. It had a bit of an exotic flavour.
Other: chairs and tables are nice, round tables are maybe a bit small for four people. I came early in the morning on a weekday in summer and really enjoyed the lighting the sun providing. The staff were really friendly and helpful.
D.
Lovely brownie (i got the GF one simply because it looked nicer) and the coffee was nice. Although, the coffee was RIGHT on the verge of bur ing my tongue, but it hadnt quite biiled. Probably just because a lot of kiwis want "hot" coffee. So. If you want your milk based coffee spot on, maybe just mention the temp when ordering. Otherwise, lovely spot! Will be back!!
E.
Lovely place to have brunch in Napier.
Staff were super friendly without being over the top.
Had a table outside on the foot path with lovely Smoked Salmon Benedict, Pancakes with Bacon and 2 great large cups of delicious Coffee which made for a great way to watch the world go by.
Were able to plan what we were going to do for the day in a very relaxing manner.
Will definitely be back when we are back in Napier
D.
We had to go to Napier so decided to have brunch there. This is a good place for it. The streaky bacon was very evenly cooked, the eggs were scrambled with a good mix of moist and set, the wholemeal toast very tasty. Bit noisy when there are a few folk in.
A.
I was late at 1430 and the kitchen had closed so only could get salads. Had a mix salad (lentils, peas, kumara, carrots, possibly pumpkin and 2 pieces of feta cheese.) for 8.9$. Quantity was medium. Enough to just get the feeling of being full. Taste was ok.
Also had a small coffee for 4.50$. There r better places for coffee in napier
F.
Was a pleasant surprise to find this delightful cafe for breakfast on a miserable Napier morning. Bubbly enthusiastic staff and great food.
F.
I can't say enough good things about Ajuna. I've had brunch and lunch there on a number of occasions and it's always been fantastic. The meals are lush, abundant, fresh, delicious and all-round yum. There are interesting dishes such as the smoked fish, and the caesar salad was amazing. Everything is very fresh. Easy for gluten-free/celiac too.
J.
Great food. Great staff. Main man at the front counter with great vibes. Good to see that sort energyin customer service!. Loved it. Will be back for sure
S.
Friendly people, top notch brekky & coffee. Not just avo on toast, there’s so much more flavour. Gotta try the sourdough…
T.
Had the French Toast and Sausage Rolls, were absolutely delicious, was very impressed with the size abd portion of the French toast, was very flurry with a very nice egg texture with bacon n bananas, also the sausage roll and sauce is great
W.
Wonderful place to have breakfast or just a cup of coffee in the middle of Art Deco architecture. The cakes and especially the croissant was excellent...wonderful raspberry jam.
A.
Superb little place, great coffee and food - breakfast and lunch. Excellent with kids - chef made plain cheese sandwich to keep our little one happy (and eating). Service very good.
M.
Amazing place for brunch . The best creamy mushrooms I have had in NZ. All of our table (6 adults) were absolutely stoked with their food - both the quality and the quantity on all the dishes was epic. To top it off the coffee was also top notch.
D.
Great atmosphere, bust but not too loud. Friendly staff, good tasty portion sizes. Very enjoyable time
M.
Unlike Mt Maunganui Napier treats your pooch with table service. This is a Great little cafe, friendly service, clean, nice location and yummy food.
T.
Had the eggs Benedict + spinach. It came with 2 generous slices of pre buttered ciabatta. Bacon was both soft and crispy (should please everyone) and good flavour. Just like the coffee it was exactly what you’d expect without any gourmet twists. Prices are a bit higher than average but you’ll be confident in getting quality food. Nice fresh modern interior too.
A.
One of my favourite cafes in Napier. Top notch food. Very quirky staff.
S.
Loved the food and the service was exceptional. Can't express my gratitude enough on how you have chosen to keep going in these times.
T.
Excellent food, coffee and service! I visit here every time I'm in Napier and are never disappointed! 👍
C.
Yummy bacon blue cheesy panini plus good coffee adding the friendly staff there very highly recommended !😃
P.
Always AMAZING food and service - me and my sons love coming here for lunch

Just had the yummiest pumpkin blue cheese tart with lovely colourful salad and tasty relish.
I'll be back and work my way through this enticing counter.
Friendly staff too.
E.
Yummy food and coffee, great atmosphere and efficient friendly staff.
F.

W.
Great food and coffee.
Fun friendly staff and atmosphere
Thanks
M.
Wonderful classy cafe in the heart of Napier. Food that caters to meat eaters and vegans and all in a nicely laid out setting. If you're in the mood for a coffee with a little bit of flair definitely check these guys out. Peace :)
K.
What an excellent place to have breakfast. They were almost at capacity last Sunday but delivered first class food and service. Will definitely be back there next time we are in Napier. There are a lot of cafes that could learn a lot from Ajuna. Well done!
N.
Fantastic service and great food. Steak sandwich was fan-bloody-tastic mate and my partner loved the pasta, definitely recommend and also the guy serving behind the counter was a barrel of laughs. Definitely can't fault anything as was perfection
R.
Meal was delicious, made especially great by their own unique twist to them. Coffee was fantastic. The staff were awesome and such great characters. Service was exceptional. Would highly recommend
A.
Great staff and food!
Thanks for serving everyone with take-away option system.
T.
Lovely atmosphere awesome location always packed with customers which days alot about this place 5 stars from my family and I we always dine here for breakfast and lunch or even just a hot chocolate flat white and a scone thankyou@ Ajuna eatery we will be back as always
A.
Super friendly staff, lovely decor, funky art work, very fitting tableware, the exterior looks good and the food is delicious and would suit most people with there being gluten free, vegan and vegetarian options. Definitely worth popping in, even if it's just to have a look :)
j.
My favorite coffee spot in all of Napier. With personalized VIP cards where staff remember your order to amazing home made food. These guys rock it 🥰
G.
The coffee's were tasty just not got enough. Excellent carrot cake!
D.
They young dude on the till withers the pirate flag tattoo was super friendly and he kindly told me there would be a little wait on food and that was okay so I got two coffees for the wait and I'm so glad I did! Thay were both super delicious! I only ordered a casual bacon and eggs but it was worth the wait as it didn't even feel like that long. The wait staff were all super friendly! Would rate 6/5 if I could!
S.
Got some very yummy sandwiches for take away today. Really delicious, high quality ingredients. We really enjoyed them. Wish we had had time to sit down in the cafe to eat there because it looked a lovely place, with friendly staff who weren't afraid to have a bit of banter. Would definitely go back.
K.
I just love this place !!!! I used to come here for takeaway coffee but this time I tried their TOFU SCRAMBLE(VEGAN) DAMN !!! That was massive and delicious 😃 Not only the food and coffee tastes nice,their staff has awesome personality and great sense of humour too. The guy at the counter greeted me so well, and the guy who served my meal checked back on me to make sure everything is ok,even though he was pretty busy... No wonder why this place is always busy... nice work...Shoutout to the team... ✌✌
M.
Family breakfast outing first visit. Absolutely delicious. Great selection of food. Coffee was great. Food presented superbly. Staff so friendly and chatty. Looking forward to the next visit!! Ticked all the boxes ... what a find!
N.
Quite overpriced but decent food
P.
Great salads and coffee. Love the atmosphere created by good art on display.
F.
Great place for breakfast or coffee which has traditional art decor surrounding.
Food was good, service was quick.
Friendly staff.
Nice menu choice with great cake/slice options in the display cabinet.
D.
This cafe is a breath of fresh air, finally a spot with some character and personality! Auckland take notes cause the best cafe is down here. Great food, even better coffee and service is exceptional. Vibes are on!
B.
What a lively place.
Great food, not only presented well, but delicious too.
Attentive, friendly staff, great coffee.
The place was buzzing.
I thought I was in Cuba street, Wellington, such was the funky vibe.
100% satisfied.
Will definitely be back next time we are up in Napier.
K.
You have to come to this place! Food and coffee are amazing, tasty and full of flavour, we're going back for brekkie, instead of a snack.
But, the star of the show is Jet, it doesn't matter if your 12 or 112,he makes you welcome and every customer had a smile on their face.
Apparently, he's a local celebrity he's so well known,its great to see a business with so much personality, it'll have you going back for more.
Please open a cafe in Auckland, and bring Jet with you.
R.
Best triple cheese scones and service ever! Coffee is also great. Definitely a must go in Napier.
A.
Nice place....warm and friendly staff. Coffee was good but $1.50 for a xtra shot...grr....and no wifi.
A.
Good food, great service. I like that guy behind the counter, he's cool.
J.
Quite a lively quirky group of staff. Had a good vibe. Food was okay/good.
J.
Very busy cafe. Lovely meals, good proportions, even the coffee was nice which I usually find a challenge with mojo coffee.
I had the pancakes, it's nice that they give you topping options. Hubby had the avocado squash absolutely yummy, our friend had a burger that looked yummy as well.
Might have to have campaign coffee meetings or lunches here while going around as the ACT Party candidate for Napier.
Judy with a Y, why because we can.
N.
Food here is a level above, breakfast in particular is recommended, good staff as well. There is a reason it is so busy. Try the scrambled tofu, you will not be disappointed
L.
Clean place, good service, very tasty food! Definitely recommendable!!
T.
First class.....never been to Napier, at age 36 now I know I’ve been missing out. Ajuna have set the bar extremely high.....the BLT with wedges I’ve just inhaled was 10/10.....what impressed me more was how great the young guy taking orders was, enthusiastic, witty & a true hospo professional.....then again they all were! Big ups Ajuna. I’ll be back
A.
Great... Unlike most cafes it doesn't shut the door at 3pm but is open until 5pm. Perfect for us for a late cafe lunch at 3.30pm. No sense of being hurried. Great salads and samosas, good coffee and smiling staff.
J.
Great service and food. Smashed avo and creamy mushrooms were both fantastic.
R.
Epic food, epic coffee, epic music, epic service!
Upbeat vibe for early on a Sunday morning, whatever the staff are on, I need some of that in my life. Could've chilled there all morning. Will be back for sure. If you're heading to Napier this is definitely the spot to eat.
J.
Exceptional coffee and breakfast, awesome service too!
A.
Every time get my long black, it has short black richness! Barista also has great taste in fashion & watches. Favourite cafe in Napier!
M.
Good food and coffee but the tables were sticky.
W.
Great location, really friendly staff, warm/inviting ambience, extensive menu and absolutely awesome food! What else could one possibly want...? 😊
N.
Fantastic service and truly amazing service. I had the big breakfast. Worth every cent.
Will return on my next visit to Napier.
L.
Awesome breakfast, quality food. We were entertained by the waiter who was a bit of a loose unit, hopefully he was high on life. We will be back.
J.
Turkish melt was spectacular. Mojo coffee always reliably perfect. Yummy yo-yo, donut, bliss balls. Fun and friendly crew.
J.
Excellent food! Great coffee, right in the heart of Napier.
O.
My partner and I are frequent regulars here as the food and drinks never disappoint and are worth what you pay for. I've chopped and changed my order many times but have since stuck with pancakes and/or lemon & sour cream cake and my partner always has the steak sandwich. Keep up the good work team, amazing food and staff 👍🏼
T.
Friendly, polite staff, quick service and delicious food and coffee. Highly recommend. Will definitely come back when I am back in town.
C.
Possibly the best French toast I've ever had. Well presented meals, not short on flavour. Welcoming and friendly staff. Nice interior with some modern and classic touches, fits in well in Napier. Grab brunch or a coffee and watch the world go by.
T.
I go here at least 3 times a week. They always get the coffee spot on, the food is always top notch, fresh, presented well and delicious.
The paninis are excellent, the bacon and eggs is a favourite. They have 3 different types of drinking water (on tap for free) and overall it's just a great place. Staff are lovely too. My favourite Napier cafe.
S.
I don't come to Napier that often but this is the best place for my extra shot long black. I am in hospitality myself and the two guys, one serving one making, are awsome. Thanks guys and well done.
R.
I visited this eatery about a month ago and the Thai Salad was amazing. I even passed my comments to the chef how impressed I was.
Great value for money and although busy for a Saturday morning - service was quick & efficient.
Would definitely recommend & plan to visit every time I am in Napier. I would be wary of recent reviews by customers who have not experienced the outstanding quality of food and service at Ajuna Eatery.
M.
Waiter with eyelid tats is the best part about coming here. Never a dull moment with this absolute G of a character around.
The delicious 3xcheese scone is a must.
J.
I've been in a number of times and haven't yet found anything to either praise or complain about - it's a thoroughly average experience. Prices are high, but no higher than any other eatery in the area. The coffee is drinkable, but inconsistent on both temperature and flavour. The service is cheery or glum depending on who you get. And the food is okay, never something to rave about but sometimes lacking in taste depending on what you order. It's not a place I'd make a special effort to visit OR avoid, just somewhere that I might drop into while passing.
Š.
The coffee is good but their cakes were the highlight for us. Pecan cheesecake is my favourite. The guy who served us made our day too! All their food looks really nice, will come back for sure
D.
Great atmosphere, awesome food and the service from the young guy on the till was exceptional. The young fella was full of banter and had a great way with customers that left them all smiling. Can't wait to visit again
A.
Very good service. Good range of meals - both sizes and food options. Very quick production of meals after order. Loved my meal.
C.
Central Napier one block from marine parade this cafe delivers on all accounts.Beautiful decor and it has outdoor seating.
Coffee is excellent and the breakfasts although on pricey side are big and not only look good but taste good.Money well spent excellent chef.
The decor is good and waiting staff not only friendly but accommodating.Highly recommend.
J.
Very good breakfast in a timely manner, the staff were flat out as it was the Sunday morning breakfast rush, top notch food and am looking forward to dining with them again
M.
Great place, clean, good food, friendly staff, good service, a little expensive when l ordered a plain sandwich with 4 fillings ( Cheese onion ham & pineapple ) and was charged $3.00 for each filling plus the bread ..... it was nice !!!!! Must admit...
K.
Exceptional service n quality cuisine..best coffee in Napier. Well done team..a real asset to the owners who obviously believe in top service! We will b back when visiting your lovely city.
Z.
Staff was friendly and helpful. Serving time was excellent. The food though was quite disappointing. Seafood chowder would have all the potential to be one of the best if not for being extremely salty. Sausage roll was dry and stale, probably minutes from needed to be thrown out. Somewhat bizarre combination of modern art and reproductions of classics on wall, but overall clean and tidy. Will not visit again.
d.
Highly recommended. Busy venue but we recieved our food quickly and the staff were lovely. Most importantly the food was delicious! We had a table of 9 and everyone's meals were fantastic.
M.
That guy with the red tats on his eyes, man what a guy!!! 5 stars to my guy. Hes the reason i come here every time im town. Hats off to you brotha, unreal service and great food!
K.
This place is O for owesome!. Best Avo smash I’ve ever had, fun and quirky staff, great vibe. Will definitely come back.... ohhhhh wait, we did go back for cake and coffee!
l.
Set within one of down town Napier's lovely Art Deco buildings and with a constant ever changing cast parading by, Ajuna not only has a great atmosphere but a cuisine to rival most other eateries with an elegant, old European style decor, best of all is the wonderful staff, Ajuna a must when in Napier!
D.
Food was very good, but the atmosphere was very pretentious.
Perhaps some people like that, designer clothes, facelifts, more bling than a pirate's chest and plenty of cool cats.
Not our cup of tea, but I'd get takeaway or Uber eats.
P.
Lovely friendly staff - the porridge was the best !
W.
Food and service outstanding. Loved the attitude.
E.
Friendly and polite. Great variety of cabinet and counter food, plus breakfast menu. Quick service. Will be back😌
K.
Hands down one of the weirdest places I've ever eaten! The food was very good, staff looked after us well but were also a bit "interesting." Definitely full on but was a laugh for me and my mates
B.
Eaten at many cafes in Napier and found this to be our go to place. They have awesome art from local artists. Staff are friendly and efficient. Great location in the centre of Napier CBD. Awesome coffee. Delishious food. What more can you ask for. ?
R.
If you're looking for a nice place for breakfast this is a top choice. We went here instead of paying for an overpriced breakfast in our hotel and we are so glad we did.
An interesting menu with fresh food that is cooked just right. Seating outside is very pleasant.
M.
Really nice cafe, great service and beautiful food.
D.
Great place for breakfast. It was humming at 8.15a.m. l
Loved the guy taking the orders.
D.
Good service and delicious food
M.
Great place, clean, good food, friendly staff, good service, a little expensive when l ordered a plain sandwich with 4 fillings ( Cheese onion ham & pineapple ) and was charged $3.00 for each filling plus the bread ..... it was nice !!!!! Must admit...
M.
Very trendy cafe in downtown with very quirky staff and interesting menu and nice fresh rolls and croissants. Great lively atmosphere.
D.
Trump and I love this place for breakfast..I love the food and service... Trump loves dancing in his stars and stripes underpants by the water station, belatedly canvassing for GOP votes
D.
Great atmosphere, awesome food and the service from the young guy on the till was exceptional. The young fella was full of banter and had a great way with customers that left them all smiling. Can't wait to visit again
M.
Cheerful zippy staff and food great too
P.
Absolutely the best food I've ever eaten in napier. Amazing presentation, delicious taste, avocado smash was divine!
p.
Awesome vegan food! Good value for money, awesome service :)
R.
Beaut big breakfast & good coffee
C.
Good coffee and only place I could find that does coffee after 4pm..
T.
Love
Always a treat when we visit the Bay
J.
Decent coffee and amazing food, good quality lunch bar 👌
H.
One of the best cafe's in Napier. Food is great, lots of vegetarian choice, on the more pricey side, but worth it. Customer service has always been great here.
M.
I had tofu scramble in the breakfast, flate white, apricot ball, which were so delicious and so good. Moreover, the customer service was excellent.
M.
I love the food here and the coffee is sublime...the best!. However it has recently undergone a huge price increase, with my favourite vege lasagne now $16.50 (cabinet food) when last week it was $13.50. The sausage rolls are almost $10 - and they're certainly nothing special. I understand price rises are necessary from time to time, but I reckon this is extreme for a place that is thriving .....not to mention the annoying 'fly' issue in the cafe. 27 April: I was not going to respond to say 'actually yes' you have put up prices within the last year, (I can only speak of the vege lasagne, as it was $13.90 when my daughter took me there for Mother's day last year); but since you saw fit to publicly humiliate myself and my partner in your cafe this morning banning me and saying we were trespassing (false because in order to trespass you have to be banned prior) - I feel fine about saying yes indeed there has been a price increase within a year. I have had friends look at the review I wrote, and they don't see how it could warrant banning customers - and in such an objectionable officious manner.
L.
Fantastic cafe & always great service
I.
Thank you guys for THE! most delicious green smoothie!
D.
Ok yes the prices are not the best, the service is not the greatest. BUT the food is the saving grace for me, the coffee is pretty good too. Although I only have Americanos.
I dont really go to cafes for the service to be honest and will pay high prices if it's worth it. Funny enough, the only issue/problem I have had are the other customers, who have been rude.
I dont go here often but will definitely keep coming back. Kai pai...
D.
One of my local haunts. The thing that makes this place 4 stars is that you are treated like family. They get to know you by name and remember your order. Outdoor seating in summer is fantastic. Menu is on the healthy side with a vegan breakfast available. A rare thing in hawkes bay.
P.
Absolutely the best food I've ever eaten in napier. Amazing presentation, delicious taste, avocado smash was divine!
L.
Good coffee and food. But pricey for what you get. Tahini bar was great. Nice location and outdoor tables are fun to watch the tours go by.
T.
Awesome place, great atmosphere, really happy staff...and the best Breakfast!!
Thanks guys
G.
Great food, fun and friendly staff and amazing coffee
R.
Absolutely loved our breakfast Ajuna Breakfast for husband and Eggs Bene for myself...Loved the vibe of the guy at counter...awesome atmosphere..definitely recommend
P.
Excellent coffee, quick service, friendly staff. Haven't eaten here for years though, so no opinion on the food.
J.
Ajuna has become my local cafe of choice for a daily coffee fix and much needed Sunday brunch. Such a funky spot and the staff and owners are all super lovely - you’ll be guaranteed a laugh!
L.
Beautiful cafe with great atmosphere in the stunning city, Napier. Date scone was wonderful and nice coffee too! Just simply made my day!
J.

Pasta was al dente cooked with fresh ingredients.
The dude behind the counter is so cool.
I liked the ambiance too.

A.
This place is amazing. Best Caesar Salad I’ve ever had, plus fun and quirky service. Will definitely come back.
S.
Yummy food but not impressed when I was charged 3.50 for a small dish of peanut butter to go with my piece of toast...as a result I've found another great place to eat brekky in Napier
D.
Trump and I love this place for breakfast..I love the food and service... Trump loves dancing in his stars and stripes underpants by the water station, belatedly canvassing for GOP votes
K.
Thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast here. Large selection. Well cooked food. Good drinks. Lovely and warm on a cold morning.
G.
Can't believe the amount of keyboard warriors that have jumped on here today to post a one star review, Soley on the basis of the story online regarding a customer having been banned for posting a negative review, which also had inaccurate information on the cafes pricing.
Always two sides to every story. Go well Ajuna.
G.
Nice cheery guy on the till. Makes a difference to the day. Good food and Mojo coffee.
J.
Really enjoy this place. Great food
Very good coffee. Its our third time there when visiting Napier. Love it.
S.
Good food, good coffee, excellent atmosphere. Really nice to sit at a table in the street and watch the people go by 😊
J.
Shame on you NZ. Looks like a bunch of you have posted negative reviews because of a newspaper article. Ridiculous. No one does that many reviews in such a short space of time.
People reading... .Just be aware this is a case of mob mentality over an article over 1 person.
I hope you can get these removed than have a bunch of keyboard warriors ruin your business
C.
Great food, coffee and service. Awesome place!
D.
The breakfast menu had great variety, and good servings sizes (large). Nice staff and very good service.
J.

(Translated) I got Ajuna breakfast, Creamy Mushrooms, Flat White. As the name implies, the mushrooms were creamy and really delicious. I was able to choose how to cook the eggs. There is a lot of it and I'm full. A little more for women. We had an outside seat, but the weather was good so it was a wonderful atmosphere.

Ajuna breakfast, Creamy Mushrooms,フラットホワイトをいただきました。名前の通りマッシュルームがクリーミーでほんとにおいしかった。卵の調理方法を選べることができました。量もかなりあって満腹です。女性なら少し多いくらいかも。外の席でいただきましたが、天気も良かったので素晴らしい雰囲気でした。
