Reviews of East End Cafe Wairoa

J. A.

Great cafe. Stopped here on an adventure bike tour. Great eggs Benedict with home made Hollandaise sauce. Good coffee and friendly staff.

S. D.

Nice cafe in Wairoa. Possibly the best one. Very busy. We ordered cappuccino and flat white plus a chocolate raspberry brownie. It was really good. Standard price. The lady at the counter could be a bit more friendly but I understand everyone was quite busy and she's trying to get the order quickly. Beautiful spot by the river. Recommended!

B. N.

What an awesome cafe. Great fresh food, really good coffee and friendly staff who gave great service.

A.

Havana coffee. Awesome long black and short mac’s. Had toasted sandwiches and whitebait fritter stack. Delish

J. K.

My husband and I really enjoyed our lunch today. We had perfect poached eggs and yummy avocado. Great service from lovely staff 💜

A. L.

Such good coffee! The service is always lovely and friendly. They are very vigilant with the COVID scanning and mask wearing which is reassuring. The food never ever disappoints! Breakfast has a great menu and lunch is sooo good too! The Mushroom Hash is must!

B. P.

We enjoyed Eastend Xmas platters for a small gathering last night. Beautiful food to suit our occasion. Thanks Ang for your efficient delightful service. Thanks to Jeff as well.

L. N.

Review from Miss 8 and Master 7. "These are the best pancakes I've ever tasted! Even better than McDonald's!" (That's a rare review right there!) "My hot chocolate was just right" - (chanelling their inner Goldilocks) Friendly service, love how our waitress addressed my grandchildren like custumers instead of ignoring them (some servers forget children). Food was scrumptious and if we ever pass through Wairoa we will definitely be calling in again. Perfect.

A. B.

What a brilliant little place. Delicious home cooked food. Totally love it. Highly recommended

K. W.

Fantastic food, coffee atmosphere 😀

C. F.

Great little cafe. Lovely stop on our travels with friendly staff and good coffee!

G. C.

10:10 Unbelieveably Awesome - has to be the best Coffee in NZ. It does not get any better. Had a Cappuccino, WOW seriously good. The Raw Date Slice was unreal - Also awesome. I would give more Stars if I could - Highly Recommended - if you like coffee you have to try Eastend Cafe.

M. H.

Kai was fantastic. Chicken filo was tasty and salad was generous. Soup was also fantastic with complex flavours. Coffee was great and staff were friendly as. Come here for big city taste with small town friendliness, pace and price. Ka pai! A

P. c.

Meals are always amazing, menu changes seasonal, service is always on point. Coffees great! A busy little gem on the main street.

K. Y.

Good coffee but mind the gap between the food display and the counter rail. If you drop something (keys) down there, it is quite a process to recover it.

T. C. H.

Amazing place with the best omelettes, pancakes, and homemade cakes! Came back on our return from Waikaremoana, because it was so good. Wish I could come here every weekend! Prices are very resonable: Omelette $16, pancakes $17, cappuccino $4.5, slice of cake $5.5.

t.

Simply great brewed Havana roast coffee. Amazing colourful place with friendly staff and good kitchen.

A. N.

Beautiful spot overlooking the river. Free WiFi, facilities. Not many vegetarian/vegan options but prices are reasonable and service was friendly and timely. Coffee and food was nice. Recommend.

S. R.

Enjoyed Havana Organic Coffee!

J.

This place was packed out!! Didn't order anything but my passengers did and from What I tried it was amazing next time ill have to wait in line to try more of their food

M. B.

D. D.

Very nice cafè, staff are great and friendly, beautiful food yummmmmmm 💯🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

S. H.

1st timer for lunch, polite,friendly, attentive staff, food and coffee was good,recommended.

M. P.

The Eastend Cafe is a firm favourite with the locals. The food is delicious, fresh, healthy and interesting. The decor is a little quirky, look for the spoons in the entrance floor! This is a great place for lunch with friends or just on your own. It's a really friendly atmosphere. They do takeaways as well so even if it's really busy or you don't have much time, you can still get your Eastend Cafe "fix"!

L. C.

We arrived hungry and they were able to make at least a couple of things from the menu vegan. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Had a delicious vegan mushroom hash and a really good soy flat white. Recommended!

A. L.

Really good food, well prepared and fresh. Very good portion sizes. A must for anyone passing through

C. t. R. S.

Good cake, friendly staff and nice clean bathroom :)

H. W.

Excellent coffee and a good selection of food.

P. T. S.

Funky and friendly spot for a good coffee and food

R. M.

Delicious Bacon and Egg with Holandaise dressing in a Croissant with Cheesecake and an Americano coffee. Highly recommended for anything out of the display. Would defo visit again.

G. G.

This cafe is a big gem in a small town. The food is homegrown, delicious, the coffee is exceptional, have been in many cafe's, so I can say that. Excellent service with a personal touch. The cafe sits across from the Wairoa river so the view is outstanding, great ambience adds to it's charm, cant say enough about Wairoa Eastend Cafe.

E. R.

Seriously good coffee. Busy local cafe,seemed to be many local clients which is always a good indicator, indoor and outdoor seating. Check out the display of cutlery embedded in the entry walkway, some one had a clever idea, we enjoyed it here

S. W.

Ran out of most food options by 1:15 pm which is ok but the woman behind the counter was quite short in her approach telling me this. The woman who brought my food out was lovely though. From the reviews it seems like it’s usually a great spot so maybe the woman behind the counter was having an off day. Food was average.

P. &. V. M.

Great friendly helpful staff,great atmosphere. Board menu and cabinet good has a great selection and understand gluten free as am coeliac and try hard to meet your needs. Fabulous for catering for groups too both in house or bring to your organization. Just had a fabulous Xmas work do there😊

E. M.

Best cafe in Wairoa! Menu different each day, selection of organic juices, seasonal food, gf options, friendly enough staff, always busy there! Wairoa is lucky to have it.

t. s.

Great coffee and friendly staff. Good range of delicious food too. Good to see gluten free and vegan options. We loved our Kumara hash brown lunch

M. M.

Nice friendly cafe in Wairoa along the river with hundertwasser style front entry. Served by a very sweet German now kiwi girl. Fun place.

B. G.

Gorgeous wee cafe very friendly and helpful. Delicious coffee lots of cabinet food definitely worth a visit ❤️

C. B.

Great that this cafe was open for a late lunch because there certainly isn't much choice in Wairoa. Good food, delightful decor and setting.

W. J.

Great atmosphere and really yummy food. Had an awesome Hot Chocolate too. Highly recommend it.

B. W.

Breakfast was served and eaten in a leisurely 45 minutes. Service was quick even with a fairly full house. Food was good flavours, well priced, and the coffee was good. Fantastic cafe in a small rural town, worthy of any big city.

T. S.

Very good coffee but surprised to find my salmon and cream cheese bagel had been put in the oven until hot! Replacement bagel provided was actually a bit stale. Lovely location.

L. W.

What a fabulous gem! Food was unequalled! Good serving size - meet and had a chat with local man Richie - great plan e to stop! Coffee was excellent

L. D.

Followed reviews and came here on our way through. Had the most awesome Cauliflower and Cashew soup! Sooooo yum, and the coffee was amazing. Cheers, and what do you put in it as your secret ingredient ???

C. C.

Cosy little cafe and amazing food and services

R. “. R.

Vibrant cafe and tasty food. If you're on a holiday it's a must-visit place in this little town.

K. K.

Excellent service. Friendly atmosphere. Very popular Cafe always used by most of the local community. Food selection Excellent & terrific variety. 5 star Cafe!

n.

Very cozy & popular place, met up with an old friend for coffee and food. I had a Corn fritter with Tomato , Avocado & Camembert to eat and a long black for $13.00 it's so strange paying less than $25.00 at a cafe for really good food and a drink. Highly recommend. Also plenty of out for seating so that we could enjoy the lovely Wairoa weather :)

u. r.

Despite the decor there was an eclectic mix of clientele but no yobbos. Totally great coffee and good range of cabinet food. The looks are decieving. Great vibe. Will go again.

S.

Coffee yum Very busy full of people Polite staff. Food great and made on site.

A. N.

We initially stopped at Wairoa for fuel only, though decided to take a look around. very glad we did as we found this Cafe. The coffee and breakfast were both delicious, and the customer service was wonderful. Lots of cheery locals and obviously the pick of all the cafes for breakfast as it became quite busy though that just added to the fun atmosphere.

K. M.

Best toasted sandwich ive had for years. The fries were yummy too 😋

N. G.

My partner and I rolled up after the kitchen had closed. The lovely staff made us a special vegan bowl because the counter food wasn't vegan, and it was incredible!!!!

V. B.

Awesome and local and delicious food AND coffee

R. T.

Very nice, good coffee and yummy cake. Service with a smile

j. b. s.

I own Cappamore Lodge on Mahia Peninsula. On my way in from Auckland I always stop in and eat. I always drag my neighbour in for a catch up and lunch when I get home as well. The atmosphere is electric and alive. The food is yummy and flavourful and the proportions are generous. A trip to Hawkes Bay is not complete with out eating here at least once. Not to mention every staff member is friendly and delightfully local.

S.

The food is great. Good coffee and tea.

s. y.

Disappointed. Snail service on blackboard menu food. They were more interested in serving cabinet food and coffees. Had reserved a table so doubly disappointed. In no hurry to return.

R. B.

Wonderful food, amazing service and super friendly staff!
