Reviews of Café El Porteño
A.
Maybe not the best location - right by Main Rd, BUT one of a very few places where stuff understands what you mean asking for very hot / extra hot coffee!! It was great today! Cheese scones are lovely, too.
D.
Great cheese scones and yummy empanadas. Their scone and soup combo during the winter is a great warming treat.
J.
Pulled pork in cheese scone was very filling, a nice contrast of sweet and savoury flavours
B.
Extremely busy, coffee ok, cheese scones delightful but a bit pricey. Front of House should try smiling a bit more it enhances feeling welcome.
T.
Small takeaway flat white from El Porteño today. Just 2 words:
coffee perfection☕💯💯😘
Back again. Not takeaway this time. Check out this coffee. Perfect presentation (notwithstanding my dribble down the side, as I took this as an after thought 😂😂😂)
G.
Tiny little cafe in the southern end of Tawa. I have been wanting to visit for a long time. I finally did. Beautiful coffee, they are famous for their cheese scones. They didn't disappoint. Beautiful fresh delicious. Fantastic service.
XXXXX
L.
Best scones I've ever tried!!! Friendly staff and great coffee.
A.
Absolutely loved this place. I went here very early in the morning as there was nothing much open in the vicinity at 7am. The guys at the till had a big smile and was so welcoming. I had a gourmet panini and coffee with an Argentinian slice. It was super cheap, quality ingredients and lightning fast service. 10/10 for these guys!
t.
Lovely food. Adored the Argentinian slice. Empanadas are 💯

Every single time I visit this cafe I am greeted by fantastic staff and gorgeous food which never fails to impress. Could not rate thier scones more highly, get amongst it!
K.
I laughed at the world famous cheese scone, thinking a scone is a scone.....but then I tasted their scones!! oh my goodness! DELICIOUS!!!! highly recommend!
A.
Small but great vibe cafe. Not many places serve filter coffee, eventhoughits easy to make. I like their good coffee bean choice and well done from a filter coffee lover.
r.
Awesome toasted cheese scones, world famous in Tawa. And great coffee, highly recommended 👌
T.
Love this cafe best cheese scones toasted with butter on the side great hot chocolates very good staff eat in or sit outside in the sun or takeaway.
J.
Always a great time at El Porteno. Great coffee with a good amount of options. I recommend the filter. Food is always excellent with the cheese scones and lemon and poppy seed muffins being my go to. Staff are friendly and make for a great atmosphere.
N.
I took my son for a treat scone, after his swimming lesson. Delicious! They have a great reputation and our visit (my second) did not disappoint 😆. They have toys and books for children, so even as the cafe was quite busy we tucked ourselves into the corner and had a lovely time.
H.
Fantastic experience, great coffee and food.
A.
Scones are Fantastic, coffee is good also - it's not sophisticated in flavour but a solid safe and consistent coffee. I like the addition of a Jersey Caramel on top of my Coffees also. Nice touch!
B.
If you're in Tawa and need a place to get some food and coffee this look no further I'd highly recommend you come here. Fantastic service, friendly staff, amazing cheese scones and good food selection
A.

G.
Cheese scones were great but luke warm flat white spoiled the experience.
D.
Great. One of the few cafes of the many in Wellington that can actually make a fantastic soy flat white. They nail it, design on top and all ☕💗
C.
Barista is always super friendly and clearly loves what they do. Coffee, cheese scones and home baked muffins are on point. Kids toys on hand.
A.
Great coffee and cheese scones friendly service
S.
Awesome during Level 3... Great scones and coffee
t.
Delicious coffee. It was so smooth! Both the silky milk and the well bodied shot. The décor was clean, light and open with personality in keeping with the name of the cafe including an Argentinian flag in the window. There's a toy basket and an easy to clean, well looked after and adaptable high chair.
M.
Walking down on a Saturday morning to have a coffee at cafe El Porteno is simply a great way to start the weekend and a ritual I hate to miss. It has a cool vibe, the staff are friendly and welcoming, the food fresh out of oven and particularly love the orange and chocolate muffins and cheese scones; also appreciate they offer a small muffin option for days when not so hungry or i take my young grandchildren down for a hot chocolate. A quality coffee is essential to this experience and they haven't let me down yet.
R.
The cheese scones are great and the coffee blend (Flight Bomber) suits me well. The service is always spot-on. Definitely a favourite and I go to many cafes.
J.
Wonderful scones and muffins (and coffee!) Well worth a visit.
L.
A hidden gem and low key my favourite café in all of Welly. Fantastic smallish venue with a great homely atmosphere and delicious food selection. Coffee quality here rivals that of the leagues in the CBD (Lamasons, Customs, Flight etc.).
K.
Had a takeaway large flat white, it was nice and hot. There place was busy and I could see delicious food. The staff were very friendly.
C.
10/10 coffee. Really keen to try their cheese scones but every time we have been there they have sold out.
D.
Very good coffee, including a single origin filter option with a regular variation in varieties. Excellent cheese scones.
