Reviews of TUCKER TIRAU
N.
Such a great spot! Friendly staff, great atmosphere and the food was delicious. We stopped on our way through and we are so glad we did! We all had burgers, which were delicious and well received by our toddlers. The staff were so friendly and made us feel welcome.
Family friendly.
Highly recommend!
R.
Awesome fresh hand made meals, healthy options but plenty of yummy options too! Super friendly staff and great service will definitely come again.
K.
Everything was perfect. We got the eggs bene & chicken burger and both were delicious. 12 out of 10 quality. The blueberry smoothie is heavenly. Beyond the food the staff and cooks (open kitchen) were so lovely. And it's reasonably priced. Legit a perfect cafe. Go!
R.
Hands down the best Eggs Benedict we’ve had. None of this out of the packet cold salmon. A large piece of fresh, cooked salmon and in house hollandaise sauce. Supreme, we’ll be back - soon.
R.
Went for breakfast here and it was amazing! One of the best French toasts I’ve had and my partner got the blueberry smoothie and said it was exceptional
We bought our Rottweiler puppy and they were very accomodating, he loved it too. Highly recommend this place!
J.
Stopped by tonight for dinner while passing through. I had high hopes after seeing the plethora of excellent reviews, and the Tucker team did not disappoint. Excellent food, drinks, and service. I’m looking forward to next time!
m.
Absolutely delicious tuna salad. Best salad I’ve ever had. Service top notch. A new must stop here when travelling through.
B.
The best meal and service that we have had in a very long time. The food was divine and incredibly friendly staff.
We promise to eat the burger tops as well next time guys!
G.
Beautiful food - great service- nice atmosphere
L.
We found Tucker when looking for somewhere for lunch while journeying south and felt welcome as soon as we arrived. Staff are very friendly and the size of the restaurant makes it easy to chat with the chef.
The Waikato has a toastie challenge this May, so the husband opted for Tucker’s entry: a cheeseburger toastie. It was apparently very good and tasted just like a cheeseburger but in toastie form.
I opted for the rice bowl with grilled tuna. The tuna was some of the best cooked tuna I’ve had in a long time.
The menu also has burgers, soft tacos and more, plus cabinet food too.
Next time you’re passing through Tirau stop by for tasty refreshments and lovely service.

En route to visiting family in Rotorua, we stopped in Tirau for initially what was going to be just coffee but turned into lunch as we were warmly enticed by the news of their special of a pulled pork with apple slaw brioche burger and freshly baked on site fresh cream, berry compote and custard doughnuts.
In addition to espressos, burger and doughnut, we also ordered fries, creme brulee, seared tuna taco and sour vide fried chicken, we were highly impressed by the food. Everything was simply elevated in flavour and texture and the service was exceptional.
It was lovely chatting with the local owners who have only opened up 7 weeks earlier. This really was a gem of a find, so much so that we hope to either return in our way home or come down from Auckland on a weekend for lunch. Highly recommended!
R.
Awesome fresh hand made meals, healthy options but plenty of yummy options too! Super friendly staff and great service will definitely come again.
J.
My husband and I stopped in Tirau on the way back to Auckland today for breakfast/lunch.
Tucker which is located on the main street in the middle of town was a great choice for our stop.
The staff were very friendly and the service provided was excellent. The kitchen is located front of cafe, where everything is made fresh to order. We ordered the Big Breakfast Burger, it sounded delicious and when delivered was everything described on the menu.
A soft Brioche Bun, with a generous 100% beef pattie, Potato and Kumera hash brown, with bacon and mushrooms, and topped with a great Hollandaise.
All ingredients are locally sourced, and made with care, which in the end, produced an excellent burger, which was delicious. Prices were very reasonable and they make a great coffee.
The cafe itself was small and intimate, with outdoor seating as well, very clean, provided free Wifi and had clean and tidy restrooms.
5 stars here, will definitely be stopping here again. Recommend to anyone looking for a great burger to fill the spot on your travels.
Thanks to all the staff for the warm welcome and fantastic food and service
K.
Absolutely top quality food with the service and atmosphere to match. We had the pan fried fish, tuna entree and vege of the day. All food imaculately presented and fresh, we will definitely be back!
M.
Our cafes back home in Auckland could learn a few things from Tucker Eatery. The staff were incredibly attentive and the food was spot on. If you’re travelling through Tirau and need something eat, stop here.
K.
Very tasty food, tried grilled tuna, it was fresh and tastes amazing. American chicken burger was juicy and sumptuous
A.
Amazing food. Had the french toast was delicious. Great friendly service

G.

L.
Great coffee, tasty food, attentive staff and an awesome atmosphere
F.
Excellent service and great tasting food. Drove passed Tirau enroute to Auckland and decided to stop here for a late lunch. Order the American burger, Grilled Tuna and a side of onion rings. The waitress serving us was super friendly. Food arrived in good time and all dishes tasted really good. The burger patty was very juicy and does live to the shop's claim of having the best burger in town!
D.
Amazing food, lovely staff and very nice lunch out for us all. Ordered dessert to take away because, how could we not? Eating it now and just, wow. Thank you for the incredible food and colouring pencils for the kids to colour with while we waited.
B.
Fabulous food and service. Hubby had potato rosti with poached eggs. I had American style burger on a brioche bun. Service was excellent as was the food. Hubby enjoyed a coffee and lemon-lime brownie-also great. We will be back!
b.
Quality top class food, excellent decor and pleasant staff. The ideal stop for a snack or lunch on that long journey. One of my favorite places for a break.
J.
Wow! So pleased we visited you this evening 😊 We all said we will be back we were so impressed from the friendly staff and management (so helpful) to the awesome entree of Tempura Prawns that were fresh as and Waikato Beef Steak that just melted in your mouth and that jus was to die for. We have all travelled the world and reckon your American Cheese burger in a brioche bun was the best. We finished with chocolate fondant and Butterscotch Pudding and washed it down with a bottle of Mud House Merlot. Such a pleasant evening as good as any restaurant in Ponsonby or Melbourne. Cheers 10/10
K.
Beautiful food, full of flavour and made with love. The rice bowl with salmon and steak were delicious. Really enjoyed the merlot and the service was awesome. A rare gem worth visiting on tour travels! Highly recommend!
C.
Gorgeous fresh food, gorgeous friendly staff 👍👍👍
T.
Excellent steak and mash done to perfection and salmon with rice and salad was excellent
C.
Absolutely amazing service. I could not believe how quick they were with the meals. We ordered two Eggs Benedict meals and they were ready in five minutes amongst serving other customers of which there were many. The coffee was hot, the food was very tasty and the whole place was clean. The toilets were also very clean, too (Look and learn, gas stations!). This place deserves an award and the staff deserve a pay raise. If you are passing through Tirau, you're doing yourself a favour by stopping in at Tucker Espresso and Eatery. I'll be making sure to make a point of going there every time I journey through Tirau from now on.
Also, the Lemon and Lime Slice is killer.
G.
Passing through and stopped for brunch.
What a gem of a place !
Staff were great.
The meal was excellent.
The coffee was supreme.
This would have to be the best eatery we've been to in a long time.
E.
Was passing through Tirau yesterday and we stopped for lunch. Between two of us we ordered the fish burger and fish & chips. Everything was cooked to perfection - the best tasting fish & chips I've had in a while. The hot chips were divine as well! Staff were lovely. Don't often find myself in Tirau, but whenever I am next there I will definitely stop again! Great value for money.
N.
Very good licensed cafe. We ordered burgers kumara fries and a beer each. Polite and prompt service and great food! Facilities clean and with small hand towels instead of blowers or paper towels. Highly recommended.
N.
We had a quick stop passing thru and ordered Battered fish and chips, Chicken, slaw and chips and our lil one didn't want anything on the kids menu and the waitress said it was ok to order anything else so 2 poached eggs and chips it was. The chicken and fish were cooked to perfection 👌 and was exactly what we wanted! Will definitely make it a regular stop! Highly recommend!!
T.
What a great place. Tucker you surprised me. Food was good, one child had the kids cheese burger and the other the pulled pork burger. I had the fish and chips which was really good and wife had the seared Tuna taco which was Really good. Very good service
J.
very nice Burger.... will stop there again for sure.. 👌😜👍
A.
My partner and I stopped by for lunch while driving through Tirau today. The calamari and fish were seasoned and cooked perfectly, the onion rings were crispy and sweet and the coffee and smooth and creamy! The decor is also gorgeous and the staff were really warm and welcoming. We're very glad we stumbled across the little gem!
T.
Great coffee the food smelled good . Friendly staff .

M.
Excellent meals, beverages and wonderful service by friendly helpful staff. I had the Fish of the Day, which was gurnard (really fresh) and lovingly served with fresh salads and chips. Thank you Tucker Tirau for giving my colleagues and I a memorable lunch
H.
Really good service, very friendly and attentive. We arrived near closing time and the manager/owner was still really nice. I was too hungry to take good photos but we're really happy with the food. The mash potato, chicken, pork belly and fries were on point. Highly recommend. We wanted to come back for breakfast but they open at 11am so will have to stop in on the way back to Wellington.
V.
Superb - try for yourself! We'll frequent Tucker Bar Eatery fo' sho! Recommended on FB & Instagram already 😉
J.

Never had such lovely wonderful service. Owner run and husband and wife hands on serving and cooking. Truley exceptional thank you for your amazing service Janice.
C.
Spending the night in Tirau on our way up the island. This was the only place that's open for dinner on a Friday night and I'm glad because the food was delicious! I had the pasta and meatballs and my partner the burger and kumara fries - all amazing. Was also the only place we could get a drink in town so lucky us. The staff are super lovely and the service is excellent. Trendy decor where you can watch the chefs do their thing. Thanks a bunch! This stop made our night x
T.
Absolutely amazing food as always! My partner had the steak, I had the fried chicken and they were both delicious! We love coming to Tucker, the staff are friendly, the atmosphere is great and the food is even better 😊

Very late lunch! Excellent cook! Staff friendly and efficient, chef getting ready for evening service. The best sausage roll I've had for a long time, cabinet food tasty and well presented. Coffee was great. Tino pai to mahi!!

Tucker is a little gem we discovered by chance when driving though Tirau. Beautiful fresh food, prepared with pride. Lovely staff and a relaxed welcoming vibe. We are planning to stop on the way home too so that we can try more of the menu! Tuna taco and duck spring rolls both amazing. Coffee was also amazing. Highly recommend.
A.
Chose tucker for brunch, fantastic choice. Big breakfast was exactly what it said on the label. Wife indulged with the rosti with chilli scrambled eggs and pan fried salmon. Both perfect. Coffee and mango smoothie also top knotch! We come to today about every 6 weeks so Tucker will be on our schedule as well.
S.
My husband and I had lunch here on the 24th February. He had a big breakfast I had a chicken burger. Also coffee. One of the best meals we've had out in a long time
C.
Called in takeaways after riding in Rotorua. Great burgers, the fish and the chicken. Super fresh and tasty. Friendly service too. The whole menu looked tempting. Stylish, modern decor.
J.
The staff are friendly and the host is very accommodating. The food is fresh and delicious, the kitchen is also within view of the dining area which makes it feel like a more personalized experience. This is quite the hidden gem, definitely give it a visit if you're driving through Tirau.
k.
Me and my partner shared the Tucker burger, Im a burger person and this was a bloody awesome burger. Juicy, massive, amazing flavors, definitely a 5 star from us. Was really nice sitting at the kitchen watching our food get made aswell. Keep up the good work guys. Cant wait to try out more food on the menu
B.
A great place to call in and eat or you can take out. There is a good menue choice, the food was extremely good and well presented. Good coffee, tea etc and licenced. The staff are freindly and efficient.
J.
Wowzas - we had the unfortunate experience of booking a night at the Okoroire Hot Springs Hotel for staff, who were reluctant to eat there given the poor state of the place. Travelled into Tirau in search of food and stumbled on the miracle of Tucker in Tirau - which was just magic! Couldn't beleive our good fortune, the food and service at Tucker was absolutely outstanding! Thankyou so much - just wonderful.
E.
Hidden gem. We were passing through on the way to Napier and popped in for dinner. We consider ourselves burger conasaires and this place is now in our top 5! The pork burger was awesome!! I will be coming back for this!

Went here for lunch over the weekend. Service was great and food was amazing. Big fan of the loose leaf tea as well
L.
Amazing food, strong coffee, friendly staff. Skip the cafes, get a proper meal here
S.
Good place in the small town. The place can get full very fast on weekends so it’s good to book a table in advance. The service was very slow, we waited for almost 45 mins for our food. Part of the reason could be because they were very busy and there was only 1 chef. The staff were good and apologised for the delay. Food was quite average and the protein quantity was small. Loved the pan fried fish with mash and salad but the Southern Fried Chicken was a tiny piece of chicken that came with mash and just fancy lettuce in the name of the salad. Overall it’s a decent place as there are hardly any options around.
C.
This is a great find. Food is top notch, nice atmosphere and staff are really friendly and attentive. Will be coming back
J.
Fabulous well cooked and presented food at a competitive price. Friendly service

I want to give you one more star!
It's about halfway between Auckland and Taupo, and the coffee is really good and the food and service are excellent.
This is one of the best restaurant outside of Auckland that I have been
Price is reasonable but foods are quality
Must try

(Translated) The taste is good, and the big table plate in the store is very characteristic with a bit of natural amber.
