Reviews of Smash Pipi
I.
Absolutely awesome experience. Amazing food and amazing service!!! The lady (I'm assuming the manager) was very accommodating and the waitresses were lovely and fast to clear our table. Been in Whangamata a few days and this is the only cafe/restaurant my family would 100% go back to. ❤️ Keep up the great work Smash Pipi!
*Edit* Went back for breakfast and yet again, service and food amazing! 👍❤️
M.
Three of us had dinner here. We found the staff friendly and helpful, the food was fresh and very tasty - and the beer was great!
S.
Best Calamari/Prawn/Scallop Salad ever! The double beef burger was also a hit, as were the take home hot chocolate jars! Service was impeccable and the owners are wonderful! Kids are happy and already asking to come back. Thank you guys for making our first time experience epic! 😊❤️
G.
Just been to Smash Pipi and it was delicious (as always!) The staff are friendly and Petra and Mike always go out of their way to say hi. Hubby had the beef burger which was huge and very yummy! I had the scallop, prawn and calamari salad and the kids all had chicken nuggets and chips and everyone loved their meals.
Everyone is looking forward to heading back tomorrow 😁
M.
Family run restaurant, founded in 2016, pretty new. Awesome ribs, kids menu affordable and well presented and the seafood food was incredible delicious. I was cold because I swan a bit before going to this place and after the soup, I felt comforting and back to normal. Clean and well maintained establishment, in the middle of the Main Street, great food, great staff. Will be back anytime soon! Thanks!
N.
Delicious food and Service was Prompt given the busy time of year . The Prawn , Squid and Scallop salad was Divine highly recommend , staff were all pleasant and helpful especially the lady with Frosted Hair.
D.
Our family/Whanau just enjoyed the best night dinning out experience here in Whangamata. At Smash Pipi, Port Rd.
We loved the menu. And we tryed everything on it!
The Cafe is warm and with beautiful decor. And the staff is friendly and professional.
I recomend you come and try...
P.
Perfect. Just perfect. Simple menu, excellent food. Exactly what we were after on a pleasant school holiday night. Thanks for the amazing night!
C.
The chicken roti was amazing! Chicken was crunchy n still moist, roti devine n not drowned in sauce, sauce was yumo! Definitely recommend this, compliments to the chef! 👍
T.
My partner and I came here for a late brunch and managed to order from the brunch menu at 11am (finishes at 11:30) got a coffee each and both were perfect. My Mediterranean eggs were perfection. Only criticism was the hollandaise, just tasted like mayo, needed lemon juice!
A.
There was a huge wait to place our order at the front for our food, still unsure what took them so long to get through the line. Fiod came at a reasonable time even though they were busy. The eggs Benedict were cooked perfectly with a creamy hollandaise sauce and a huge portion of bacon, the burgers are big (but an excessive amount of lettuce). Great coffee which came out quickly.
M.
pretty decent service with acceptable wait times. Their French toast (made with gluten free bread) was amazing!. They had no issues using gluten free bread instead of their normal bread and no extra charge!!
B.
Pretty good. Had the steak and lobster tail. Limited tap beers (2 & 1 cider?). Good friendly staff.
D.
Cafe was busy on a holiday weekend Sunday morning. Coconut latte was lovely and the chai latte smelt and tasted great. The topping on the coconut latte was the only down side, a very bitter taste. But after that was mixed in, it was no longer an issue.
N.
Yummy breakfast... Big portions and tasty. Coffee was awesome as well
M.
Great food catering for all food requirements including: vegan, gluten free and keto
G.
Very nice meal. Excellent service. Great place to eat
J.
Very good coffee and scone for our morning break. Service not good - two different staff members tried to clear away our plates from under our noses whilst I was still eating. Please slow down and let us enjoy our food and drink.
M.
Coffees were alright
Food was served under seasoned, no salt on the chips at all and they were not fresh
Burger was big but no flavour in the meat patties at all, also under seasoned
Breakfast sausages were dry beef instead of pork (as they should be)
No water given to us throughout our meal
A.
Food and coffees are delicious. Young staff were very well mannered and professional. Cute spot to stop in for lunch. Was packed when we stopped in but totally worth it.
D.
Absolutely delicious, even my fussy kids loved it.

GREAT burgers! Good service, friendly owner!
K.
If you're a guy looking for that perfectly satisfying burger, taste, size, freshness. The double beef burger here is the burger you've been longing for. Better than a lot of the Wellington on a Plate burgers IMO
N.
Awesome service, very well presented food, fast food delivery to table once ordered.
Overall our group of 11 all enjoyed their food both days we came to the smashed pipi for breakfast.
Highly rate both the food and service at this place.
Would recommend getting a feed here anytime you are near by.
Thanks Smashed Pipi team.
B.
Recommended to us by Whanga. Locals. Great coffee , good menu and service. We both had mince on ciabatta toast with a poached egg on top , bloody brilliant ! again a local recommendation and spot on for a substantial lunch before the drive home to Auckland.
Only one criticism : ditch the artificial plants / greenery , go real or don't do it at all.
Well done Smashed Pipj
M.
I always have a great experience here. Everything comes with a little extra. The hot chocolates come with chocolate spoons (not just for kids!) coffees are high quality, meals are fresh and substantial but still elegant, the prices suit and the loaded wedges are truely LOADED! Staff are friendly obliging and efficient. The atmosphere is relaxed and beachy, and the chairs even have inspiring or funny sayings written on them just to add to the classic kiwi character. Smash Pipi is perfect for a family lunch, catch up with a friend or time out on your own with a good book! For something with a little extra make sure you drop into Smash Pipi next time you're passing through Whangamata 🏄♀️😍
C.
We had a great meal. Classic Sea Food Chowder and a Surf and Turf. Absolutely yummy. The service was excellent and we were very impressed. We had got there around 5ish.
S.
Excellent food and service. Recommend the Beef and Reef! Delicious
L.
Wonderful seafood salad, prawns, calamari and scallops! Excellent Date scones with orange butter! So Yummy! Great service. Excellent host.
S.
Got a coffee, strawberry milkshake, iced chocolate and some fries. The fries were on our table in about 5 minutes if that and were great! Drinks were amazing too.
j.
Food was ok, a little pricey for what we got. The food didn't come to our table at the same time and it's not like we ordered a lot, just 2 breakfast and fries.
The staff were mostly good. I thought it was a little cheeky charging an extra dollar for sauce to go with fries.
I have had the slices before and they were nice. Best thing is it is the most spacious cafe in Whangamata so you don't feel crowded.
G.
Always great food and service with a smile 😃
H.
Good coffee and food. Artistic surfing deco was welcoming customers.
Seat outdoor table to watch cars. Visited during 21st Whangamata beach hop.
M.
I either like or dislike, i like the place, tidy and vibrant, the service was quick and good. But foodwise, we ordered pasta , beef tacos and fish and chips, the only flavoursome was the fish and chips, tacos and pasta need some more flavour, but they are quite generous on chips though, which i like. I rate 4 but i meant 3.5 as split review.
K.
Smashed avo breakfast was very yummy but the berry smoothie wasn't great; tasted like it was just blended up mixed frozen berries and nothing else, a bit disappointing for $9 to be honest.
K.
Great cabinet and food but really rude terrible service
A.
This is a quality place to eat and relax. The owner was very accommodating with a great sense of humour, the food top notch especially the Calamari Salad. Staff were friendly and we will be coming back here tomorrow because Smashed Pipe is reasonably priced as well.
M.
Smash Pipi was a really nice surprise for two people travelling up to Coromandel. The food was really tasty, the menu was quite extensive and there were free bottles of (tap) water. The outside seating was glorious and inside there funny little quotes on the tables. The staff were very friendly. I'd definitely recommend a stop at this Cafe.
g.
A regular stop off point for coffee and sometime breakfast on the weekends, a great vibrant place to sit and enjoy the atmosphere at Whangamata. Nice people, good food and dog friendly too which is a plus for us!
W.
Patra served the most delicious lunch to us today. Very well presented and the coffee proved good too. Thanks says my Mum for the extra cup.
T.
Usually good, but last visit was well below average and thier usual std.
Taco looked great, but was dried chicken with salsa on bulk tasteless coleslaw with no dressing.
Will try again but won't order the Tacos again.
B.
Excellent meal, and service. Had mince on toast with egg. Very tasty. Egg had strong color and full of flavor. We'll be back.
A.
Great place for breakfast! Stopped in on the way to the beach. The service was great and welcoming, food came out fast and was hot and delicious. Really glad we stopped in here!
C.
Very good food and crazy shakes are worth a try.
J.
When staying in Whangamata with my daughter, my husband and I tried many cafes - smashed Pipi being one of them.
We were undecided on what to order so asked the lady behind the counter for her recommendation. She said the lasagne special was “delicious”, which we then ordered, and by golly she not wrong. It was a fantastic meal and I couldn’t help thanking the lovely girl that suggested it. A very generous serving too, might I add.
Afterwards, we decided to sneak a treat to take with us and they were just as delightful. Great cafe, great service, even greater food.
R.
Really cool place, dog bowl even though pooch was in the car, coffee wasn't quite there... but I'm precious and ex barista so dont mind me too much ;-)
J.
Menu has a decent amount of variety, coffee was good and their burger buns were delish.
A.

F.
Nice place in the middle of town. Really enjoyed the nice coffee. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
S.
Regular coffee stop. Plenty of seating inside and outside. Generous portions from the menu and from the counter cake selection. Value for money and tasty too. Popular with the locals
A.
Some of the food being brought out of the kitchen looked great but unfortunately what we chose off the menu was average and not worth the price Probably wouldn't eat here again. But the coffee is great
W.
