Reviews of The Roost
K.
We came here for an early morning coffee and scone, staff were friendly and happy to open up when we arrived a few minutes before opening. The frittata was a touch expensive, but it was delicious and filled me up. Coffee was good, perfect temperature, your classic cafe coffee. I will be back here in the future, thanks The Roost!
J.
visited in a busy time. I wanted to have here, but it was almost time to go, so I had no choice to change it to take away. It's a pity that I used disposable cup, but it's a lovely place and nice coffee.
A.
Visited a year ago and had really good muesli and fresh seasonal fruit. Was looking forward to same but they'd had a busy weekend and had run out of muesli. Had adequate poached eggs and bacon. Not well presented. Very basic fair.
Y.
This is only one coffee shop opened in the early Sunday morning near Brydone Hotel. We want to try something different and apparently it was a good choice. Benedict egg muffin is nice and my daughter was happy for her free fluffy and cake
L.
I had not been there for a few years since I used to go regularly. The food I ordered was less than what I previously could get and had no garnishes etc. Meagre selection of cabinet food. However, I think they were probably short staffed etc.
鐘.
Nice place to have breakfast in this quiet town. The food is pretty descent and the interior deco of the cafe is quite modern yet cozy.
B.
A simple cafe which produces excellent coffee and breakfast. The pancakes were light and fluffy with lots of banana, walnuts and caramel sauce.
The poached eggs were perfectly cooked and the bacon rashes were just right. Egg yolks were thick and deep yellow - fresh and grass fed.
We would go back just for the pancakes. Black coffee was served with hot water on the side without asking.
The Roost provided the best breakfast we have had in 12 days in NZ.
M.
The coffee here is very good. The food choice in the cabinet is okay - for a hungry visitor. Staff regularly seem a little reserved here, but my latest visit at the beginning of June has some really friendly staff on, and I wasn’t made to feel like a stranger.
J.
Great coffee, large cups are enormous! Really good food and great staff
B.
Excellent for lunch. Lovely people and good food at reasonable prices
S.
Great Sunday brunch. The staff are so chilled and very helpful with the wee ones. Making it an enjoyable experience to just relax and enjoy the food with great coffee.
Weather a bit dusty in the morning or an arvo pick me up, this is the place to go.
R.
Proper hot coffee. Tasty savoury muffin and fresh sweet slice. Great service.
D.
Foods yum! Carrot cake and icing is spot on! Coffee is good for Oamaru - but in general, the milk is heated too quickly or too much - not quite burned, but very thin.. hmmm... quite drinkable though!! And they do small-bowl sized cups - Awesome!
H.
Lovely coffee and nice scone with jam and cream
R.
Great customer service and yum food n coffee
D.
Very nice coffee and friendly locals
A.
I had some amazing waffles for breakfast, which was delish! Beautiful coffee and a friendly chef, who came over for a little chat, as it was very quiet early in the morning. Looking forward to visit next time when in Oamaru.
m.
Great stop off for a really tasty lunch in the steam punk area.
G.
Amazing service with delicious food and great value.
G.
Very good value for money. Breakfast, lunch or a snack and the portions are great. Coffee's are good and reasonably priced. The staff were friendly. The Roost will definitely see me again :-)
S.
Nice and cosy cafe for a drink and snack.
J.
Food lovely however waited 50 mins for meal. Was busy to begin with... Told wait 20mins. One person on front counter making coffee and serving. Could have been a little more organised.
R.
Really cute little place, coffee was very nice too which I took to go - with a shot of caramel...it's my thing. Handy for us at the time due to the very early opening time which was great. Nice and tidy with outdoor seating at the front and back. Great if you have little ones or just want a nice quiet spot for a hot drink. Only disappointment is 2 x friends I was both bought a muffin from the shop and seperate times on the same day, and both were quite disappointed commenting the taste wasn't that great and they didn't seem very fresh, one of them saying there muffin felt like it had been frozen but not properly defrosted (or offered to heat up)..and on a cold morning was less than ideal, so that was a shame to hear.
B.
Great cafe, brilliant staff, yummy food
h.
Food and coffee were devine! Will be back to visit 😁

My daughter loves their Macroni cheese. We had a nice chat at the Roost and the arrangement of sitting table make you feel that you are able to have a private conversation with some good coffees.

Food was great lovely building but lacked character. The place needs a lift to attract more customers. Friendly staff
m.
