Reviews of L-G Cafe
S. Y.I had the chicken salad which was delicious & a good portion size. My hot chocolate with marshmallows was so yummy and perfect on a cold, rainy day. ☕✨I loved everything I ordered! Thank you so much ☺️
My husband ordered the Eggs Benedict, he enjoyed it too but thought the portion size was small. It needed an extra piece of bread.
Overall a great place to have lunch in a handy location.
K. T.Lovely staff, quick service and delicious food and drinks. Their coffee is great and so is their strawberry matcha. Early bird brekkie for $14.90 is an absolute deal and the kids buttermilk pancakes are crazy good
K. B.Have been here a few times now and food is always great and customer service is always good.
I ordered the fish n chips, which were lovely.
My daughters had the eggs bene and a burger meal.
Both were very happy with their meals and ate every last morsel.
Will definitely be back!
K. H.Thank you Brian and the L-G staff! I had my 60th birthday there with a table of 16 girlfriends. We had almost like a private room. It is a pretty place. The food was fresh and delicious - they have their own chef. Plenty of gluten free choice. A very special occasion made extra special by the venue and the food.
N. B.What an amazing experience. My elderly father has Parkinson’s and we had a small dog with us that we could not leave in the car. The staff went out of their way to accommodate us, setting up a table outside with a sun umbrella, providing water and all round excellent service. The food and coffee were first class and the patrons too were very friendly. Thank you L-G Cafe!
N. N.This coffee shop is very good. The clerks are very warm and friendly. They like iced coffee very much, and the food is also very delicious!
J. A.We have been stopping in to L & Gs Kitchen for a couple of years now and you can always expect beautiful food and coffee that is always at the right temperature, highly recommend the eggs benny with bacon.
Easy car parking outside and they have really good outside seating.

A. W.Recommended by Mum. She's been cooking for 90 years, and she loves the place. Mum had steak and kidney pie; I had the superb Club Sandwich. Great coffee. The staff are super friendly and attentive. Serves beer and wine. This is understandably a popular café with a sunny location and deserves the many 5-star ratings it has received. A gem for breakfast and lunch on the Whangaparaoa Peninsula!!
P. S.A lovely dining experience here for breakfast with my parents. The hosts were friendly, attentive and very caring. The coffee was so perfect I had to have two! Thank you for having us x
J. T.My son has a severe egg allergy. The staff were very kind and helpful with preparing the food for him. The food and coffee were great! Thank you LG Cafe
I. H.Had lunch here food was well presented and delicious options. Only down side Poached egg was hard and cold might have been a bad day 🤷♀️ service was great and friendly would still come back was a lovely venue and many options
S. S.Lovely little Cafe for a coffee catch up. Quiet, inviting & a chilled vibe. Friendly, fast service, good food & drink....a little pricey but portions are generous & delightful 😊 Thank you!! Looks like a hot spot for local workers too.
M. O.Great café to visit, especially in a good weather. Enjoying the sunshine & coffee there☕️
H. S.Ok, I understand that. It is good thing to keep others safe. But hope next time we can be treated in a better way and more efficiently (just urgent need for toilet, not mean to give the bad feedback) and we were plan to have lunch in your restaurant because of the good outlook. :)
L. R. R.Great service delicious healthy 😋 food. Ambient atmosphere. Friendly staff. Beware of the fact although they say they are open till 3 for some strange reason they send their chefs home at 2pm. But don't expect much after lunch but coffees & cakes if you enjoy that fine.
B. R.Friendly service. Good food. A nice experience. Definitely a favourite. Wonderful chicken wrap, and great coffee.
N. P.I was surprised when I see my coffee. It’s really nice design of happy birthday on my coffee. Thank you so much for making my wonderful day.
G. S.Absolutely outstanding. The Beef Stroganoff pie is to die for. So delicious! So much flavour and the meat was really lean and the pie so fill with meat filling.
All good made onsite. I highly recommend.
R. S.I absolutely love coming here! The coffee is divine, the food is divine, the staff are super friendly and the location/layout is really nice. It’s such a treat!
Z. S.For the last year or so we are there for lunch about every fortnight. Food is great and what makes it even better is when the owner remembers you don't want carbs and he suggests substitute it with mushrooms or something else.
Great atmosphere and service makes this cafe good place for a meal.
b.My son and I used to visit every Sunday when Lorna and Gary had this restaurant so were naturally saddened to see them go, and to find out - at that time - that the new owners were closed at the weekend.
We were pleased to find they were now open and gave it a whirl: I always have Eggs Benedict (and you wouldn't believe the amount of places that can't seem to get the eggs right....), and they were perfect. Solid whites, runny yolks. I WOULD have liked to see that they were free range though.
My son had The big Breakfast which really WAS a big breakfast - just think of everything you can, then add some!
The new owners were delightful, didn't over hover (nothing worse) and were very friendly. Everything clean and water provided without asking.
There was the occasional middle eastern touch which was interesting and very welcome. Highly recommend.
J. R. W.Lovely, family friendly restaurant. Staff were fantastic, (my 2 year old dropped a glass which smashed and the waitress didn't even bat an eyelid cleaning up), food was great 😀definitely recommend.
G. C.Very much a go to venue for us, friendly courteous service, food & drinks always excellent ... note a great selection of GF items available.
R. J.Wow I was not expecting this place to be amazing but oneastly a top notch above the rest . The food I had a eggs Benedict and rosti and bang in the mouth food explosion . The atmosphere was relaxing and service was great . Highly recommended this place to anyone that loves great food .
S. &. L. G.Great place for a catch up with friends whether over coffee and cake or one of the delicious menu options. They also have some gluten free options and a vegan muffin making it a great place for different food preferences. Make sure you check it out for yourself.
J. D.Best eggs Benedict on the Hibiscus Coast and great coffee. Would highly recommend the toasted blueberry and banana loaf too!
N. M. G.The new owners of this cafe are awesome. Had an amazing light lunch and an exceptional latte with my family. The staff were all amazing, the cafe is beautiful and it has a great vibe. Highly recommend!
T. W. C.Beautiful atmosphere and the flow is magnificent.
The environment is clean decorated with mood lighting and plant life creating a fresh scene.
The service is speedy and the quality of goods are fantastic. The mocha specifically included dairy free chocolate and clearly delicious tasting beans.
The parking was accessible to the shop and wheelchair friendly. The chips were well fried and seasoned perfectly. I enjoyed the company of the staff who were amiable and helpful. I would recommend this to everyone I know and will definitely be visiting again. A+++
H. T.Highly recommended. Just went here for a quick stop. A pleasant environment and friendly staff. And Reasonable Prices!
R. S.Great customer service, food variety and quality. Nice atmosphere too.
M. B.Party of 5 for brunch on a Sunday morning. Very friendly and helpful staff, energetic and responsive. Plenty of options on the menu, came within the expected time and of a good standard. Atmosphere within the cafe is typical, nothing exceptional but satisfactory in all respects. Will definitely come again.
r. b.Was my daughter's 14th bday and decided to treat her for her special day, been here a few times, today felt really homely. Thanks for making our dining out extra cool!
S. S.Great brunch. Generous portions reasonable price. Coffee came very quickly after order.
They apologised for slow service when we went to pay but we were served very promptly
The presentation of food in the display case was excellent.
My friend ordered chicken livers but they had sold out. Plenty of other options and I will go back to sample some more
T. S.Fantastic coffee, amazing service and food that is baked fresh on site. One of my favorite cafes on the coast. The counter food selection has so much to choose from, sweet and savoury. The ham and cheese brioche scrolls are divine and one of my faves. Their breakfast bap looked amazing and is on my eye next time!
T. S. E.Beautiful food, I understand not having menus due to covid, but only one by the till isn't the best idea. If possible, written on the wall blackboards so you can read it there, so not to feel you have to rush because of the people behind you. Also staff could be more friendly.
K. L. (.The coffee (Allpress) is consistently good, there's a great selection of cabinet food (the pumpkin, sunflower seed, ginger muffins are a favourite) and the staff are friendly. Thank you for providing locals with a great cafe!
B. S.Sorry, but my food experiences at L & G's haven't always been great. I had a stuffed kumera which was definitely unpleasant. Other times too, I've been disappointed. I only go there because it's convenient. Also, to be fair, sometimes the food is good and I would highly recommend the muffins
A. R.I love the atmosphere there. Very cosy. Great coffee too!
R. G.Food and coffee was very good!
M. S.What a amazing place, thought we’d go off the beaten track and try somewhere different for a change, we weren’t disappointed.
The food was amazing and the staff were super friendly.
Thanks, we’ll be calling in again.
K. M.We had a wonderful group lunch here last week. We were a group of 15 but the front of house and kitchen crew and chef handled our orders with apparent ease. Everything was top notch and we will visit again. Thank you L & G's Kitchen
H. G.Had a Coffee Group meeting here with 6 other grans. They have different sized tables which is great..a couple outside as well. Seems to be a popular spot of the older generation as this day they were the lions share of the customers. Food is delicious, coffee is great, the servers are lovely and good at their jobs, service was good but they were very busy, could almost do with another person there, my only criticism is after we had more people arrive, we weren't offered any more water / glasses, or asked about orders - not sure if this is their way or if they were busy everywhere else, so ordering at the counter-only was our experience. Is very loud inside so we moved to the large outside table after a while. We asked for the umbrellas up but it was too windy apparently and they would have blown away - however on leaving the next group had them up fine.. perhaps we needed to erect those ourselves. Just x2 toilets x1 being the disabled one - watch the lock on this one, the lady explained it can look locked and occupied when it's in fact empty, which we found to be the case, after waiting several minutes. Overall a lovely spot, very central and we'll visit again (using the outside table lol).
K. D.Unfortunately LG cafe has a lot to live up to from its predecessor.
The food is generic chain menu items. The coffee is average but not offensive.
Would live to see a more dynamic menu with rotating specials and local specialities.
Staff are lovely though.
M. D.Been on two occasions, really good both times
S.Wow! Where do I start? Heaps of parking, check. Beautiful, artistic, clean and spacious location, check. Amazing, friendly and attentive service, check. A wide range of delectable things to eat, not just cabinet snacks but a whole kitchen that serves all day breakfast (with decent portions!!), CHECK! Delicious coffee to sit down inside OR outside in the sun, CHECK! What more can you ask for...?
J. R.Lovely staff and amazing coffee! I would definitely recommend :)
L. M.L&G's is a spot I always enjoy. Great food, largely made on the premises. My favourite thing with coffee is the pumkin, date, ginger, sunflower muffin. Suprisingly light for a muffin containing pumpkin and a nice hit of ginger.
A good-great standard of service.
It can be noisy and is mostly busy.
M. H.Nice place but seriously a fake chicken chicken patty for a $24 burger
D. L. (.During lockdown these guys are very well organized. Great coffee and their cheese and onion scones toasted and buttered are divine. Lovely menu and friendly staff. Support local.
S. B.I always stop in for a coffee when I can 😊 lovely ladies behind the counter - always super polite and professional
K. F.Staff were such a vibe, so friendly. Didn’t have time for a meal but the menu looked amazing. Awesome coffee and barista, thank you 😊
R. T.Great service kind friendly people. I go there every day for a coffee now. Nice to support a local business
R. G.Everytime we come here the food and coffee is at a consistently high standard and very friendly service. Favourites are the corn fritters and the burgers.
J. S.After several visits I can vouch for consistently excellent quality and service at L & G. The cabinet food is great, freshly prepared and well seasoned. The staff (including the owners) are happy and professional. Hoorah!
M. T.This is a very good cafe. The food is cooked on the premises and tastes like good home baking. Staff obliging. Parking easy. A good place to meet friends for coffee or light lunch. Use it regularly.
R. H.Friendly staff who welcome with a lovely smile. Will have a chat if they have a minute to spare. Great coffee! Delicious food! Value for money for sure!
D. K.Great service, good coffee (Allpress), decent food. Nice fish and chips special. Counter food all made in house and looks great. Will definitely come back!
T. T.The food was amazing. Fantastic service. The food came so fast. I will definitely be there again
E. R.A nice bright happy place to eat at. Good food.
R. N.Friendly staff, great food and nice and tidy. Toy area for the little ones aswell.
R. B.On the day I went the service was terrible. Only two people serving and ordering was slow. Had to ask for a menu, had to go to the counter to ask for server to take our order and again to order coffee. The servers were not organised. The food was good but they need to improve their service.
C. P.I had a relatively good experience; nothing to rave about and also nothing to complain about. Some people say that is good.
Are there areas that they can improve on? I say there's always room to improve.
Would I visit again? Of course 👍
K. M.Always love my fav cafe❤️ Great service with a smile and the food is AWESOME‼️ If you haven't been yet I highly suggest you do. You will not be disappointed. Tell Linda that Karla sent you LOL😍😂
J. S.We have dined here a couple of tines recently. For our tastes we think the menu & food is much improved from its early days. Parking right out front. We'll go again.
S. S.Perfect except there was no nappy changing table in the bathroom so I had to go out to my car to change my baby's nappy. Apart from that it was lovely and had a to die for gluten free slice.
G. F.Awesome food, awesome location and awesome service. Highly recommend the French toast!
L. -. W. A.Great coffee and food.
L. H.Excellent every time, perfect coffee, friendly staff and an awesome eggs bene (the rosti is yummy).
