Reviews of Kaimai Cafe

A.

When it's busy during the weekend, be prepared to wait for your food. That said, the burger was good, the vegetarian breakfast was nice and watching the cows graze is somehow therapeutic. The spiced iced chai was the best part of this excursion!!!

C.

Good old fashioned food. Generous portions..Delicious iced coffee

R.

Excellent service. Great selection of Cafe food and kid friendly environment.

C.

Nice and clean. Set back off the road. Lovely setting really. Food was delicious and the staff are amazingly friendly. Thank you for the lovely lunch.

V.

Beautiful location very calm and relaxing, Very nice staff and super awesome food and coffee ☕️. Excellent service

M.

Nice quiet cafe, warm fire and staff make you welcome. Awesome big breakfast that is well worth the $21

D.

Beautiful cafe in the countryside. We got here with the only intention of having a coffee but at the end decided to also have breakfast (best decision). Thumbs up for the coffee, not everywhere knows how to make a good flat white. Had the egg Benedict with creamy mushrooms but as a vegetarian the friendly lady behind the counter (who I believe is the owner) organised something especial for me. If you are going this way stop and give it a try, even just for the coffee, totally worth it

S.

STOP! Don't drive past this cafe!!. Friendly staff, nice strong coffee and very generous breakfast portions. Highly recommend

B.

The staff were very kind , the food was very nice 👌 we did get some corn fritters that were a bit dry but they kindly gave us that meal free.

H.

Has a delicious lunch out on the deck at Kaimai Cafe, staff are lovely and we will definitely stop in again

G.

Great rural stopover, lovely views. Our lunch was wonderful.

D.

Great place out of the city with views to green lands. Busy during the weekends.

L.

Great service, coffee and variety of food

A.

We have been meaning to visit for some time. Got there today. Lovely clean cafe. We sat out on the deck looking over farm land and seeing lots of turkeys. Food was very nice but we felt the 45min wait for it was a bit long.

G.

First time here. Was OK for what we paid for we were left a little dissapointed. Probably wouldn't go back, was far to busy for the amount of staff, drinks took 25 min, food was 30 min after. Food was average, smoothie tasted like water and berries and shake tasted poor. Good staff though, probably should have gone on quite day for a better experience.

C.

Visited here for the first time today and could not believe how busy it was. Also know will definitely go back as the staff are lovely and the food is fresh - something that many other people obviously already know 😀

K.

Always love to go. Coffee with view😎

C.

Nice food. Reasonably priced. but could do with some cleaning up.Lovely environment.

J.

This place is frickin amazing.... Coffee is soooo good ... Beer is sooo cold .. the meals were just fan bloody Tastic.. Well done team ...

g.

Took me a while to get there although I'm just down the road. But the food and coffees are amazing, really nice setting and staff are friendly. will definitely be back for Saturday breakfasts!!

R.

We arrived in from Fiji and pulled in on New Years day for breakfast. Such lovely staff greeted us and made the most perfect coffee! We had a date scone thst tasted so beautifully homemade. Pouched eggs were cooked exactly the way i love them . OUTSTANDING Highly recommend this cafe on all levels. Atmosphere, service,friendly, taste!

K.

The staff did an awesome job with the Mother's Day rush, and the food and drinks were great as always. Overall a great experience, definitely recommend!

S.

Always great coffee and food. Highly recommend. Wonderful situation over looking the rural area.

A.

Pleasant destination or stop off if you’re planning a drive out of town. Cottage like atmosphere in a pleasant rural setting, fresh wholefood selection with a choice of indoor or outdoor seating, Art on display is also for sale and there’s also a craft shop. Call in....they’re worth it.

D.

Friendly, clean and great view. Visited here a few years ago when owners weren't so friendly. But today the service was excellent, friendly and warm. Had a lovely drink and the Jammie dodgems are a real treat, will go again now I know it's improved.

R.

Lovely date scones and good coffee. Was at the Cafe with a group of friends. Everyone enjoyed what they ordered. Quick service and friendly staff

P.

It's a wonderful place to go for a coffee or even something to eat. The staff are so friendly and the service is always amazing. Thank you so much.

L.

This is one of our favorite Cafe's. Great food at a great price, decent sized portions. Friendly staff remember you and chat. Clean toilets, wheelchair accessible. Cater for children, licenced. Indoor and outdoor seating, lovely location, lovely view. Wee garden center attached.

J.

Hands down one of the nicest places to stop and eat. Food is always amazing, it’s our regular stop over when travelling between Auckland and Tauranga. Coffee is always spot on and the food always feels as if your eating a home made meal. Staff a friendly and service is great. The indoor fire place adds to that home feel

S.

Awesome food top service Xtra clean restrooms. 10/10👍

J.

Nice vibes and food. Lovely staff.. Was better when they sold gifts 🎁 and fruit.. Worth trying if you haven't..

W.

Visited today for the first time on someone else's recommendation. So glad we did. All of the food was off a high standard, lovely setting and friendly staff. I had the eggs Benedict and compliments to the Chef.... one of the best I've had.... will definitely be back

D.

We stopped here Labour Monday. Not only are the staff friendly and efficient, the food is delicious. I had the cream cheese bagel with bacon. Presented beautifully with lots of perfectly cooked bacon, the bagel was the best I have tasted. A yummy salad with fancy lettuce, carrot strips, diced tomatoes and celery was topped with micro greens. And a very nice cup of tea. I want to go back and try the salmon bagel now! Perfect !

J.

Found by accident as we were driving down the road. Great location, great food, great service! The owners are so nice!! We had the open lamb sandwich, and you absolutely have to get the French toast -amazing!! Caramelised banana, homemade whipped cream, and bacon on top!!

M.

Fantastic experience at the Kaimai Cafe. Not only was the food delicious and the view lovely but I left an item behind and they very kindly posted it to me. That is outstanding service!

c.

Hey a great place to enjoy a luncheon etc. We went with a group of 14x family and friends for a delicious meal.Great food and homely atmosphere. Staff who knew what to do for a larger group, organized and ready to serve. They even managed to work our camera for a group photo. We will be back again. Thankyou Kaimai Cafe .

D.

Staff were excellent in their duties with a good selection of both hot and cold food at a reasonable price and the coffee was quite good

R.

Excellent coffee & food.

I had a nice beetroot salad from here this week. The dressing was lovely but the beetroot was tasteless (I am guessing it was canned). Good tasting coffee

A.

Fairly average. Probably more a 2.5 star

K.

Really lovely - had a wonderful lunch with 2 others. Gorgeous salads, best ever iced coffee and super friendly service. Highly recommended

L.

Huge meals and very fresh produce. We love this cafe -it's quirky and has personality just like the guy making the awesome coffee! Highly recommend as something different for tourists!

M.

We finally stopped at the cafe. It's a farmish atmosphere, reasonable prices. There was a lovley little garden centre/gift shop here too, was delighted to discover it - but then sad to hear that the gift shop will be closing soon.

A.

Lovely cafe. Look forward to visiting again

P.

Always gr8 every time we call in. Can't recommend enough on how great the food the service atmosphere and the location is. As we have a small dog always happy to see him n help with water m dog treats. Thanks.

M.

(Translated) Beautiful charming and picturesque place. Accessible by road, ample parking. Coffee with decoration and typically Neo charm at the edge of the near. Nice cashier service but disappointing table service without a smile. Waiting time of dishes with more than 30 minutes. (Original) Bel endroit charmant et pittoresque. Accessible en bord de route, parking suffisant. Café à la décoration et au charme typiquement Néo au bord des près. Service en caisse agréable mais service en table décevant sans sourire. Temps d'attente des plats avec plus de 30 minutes.
