Friendly staff. Excellent service. The food was delicious. Great coffee. Also bought a piece of fudge on the way out...omg! It was AMAZING!

M. K.

These guys opened up specifically on a public holiday for our team to have a bit of a work lunch which was awesome. The food was absolutely amazing, could not have asked for a more amazing experience getting to see what turned up each time, we all left stuffed with snacks for later. Would highly recommend for anyone looking at a get together.

R. B.

Visited this place after a long time. New owners, New to me atleast. Still looks very tidy and inviting. Coffee was spot on. Place with several tables packed with professional people, virtually no music, making conversations not too private. Didn't eat anything so can't comment on food or service. Will be back for sure.

J. N.

Loved the marinated steak and patatas bravas, the chicken, empanadas, and arancini was so so. Would come back again to try other stuff but most definitely will come back for the steak.

Amazing food, great service and generous servings. Highly recommend! The flavor balancing is sublime. Everything was delicious. Pork belly and angus steak pictured with the pear and walnut salad and marinated olives. All great! Churros for dessert were also amazing!

D. K.

Vision AV Ltd had our work Christmas function here last Friday night. The ambiance was warm and inviting, the food was well presented, plentiful and delicious. The service was outstanding. I highly recommend Laneway for a function or private dining.

S. T.

This place is a winner! Wonderful ambience, friendly service, excellent food and top notch coffee. Best breakfast I have had in Dunedin, with a good selection to choose from.

t. s.

Was a nice place looks good on inside and out. Decided to give 4stars was gonna be 3 but the guy that pulled a long shift for my partners sisters 21st done well even though he was over it and the lady that was serving definitely held up their standards

T. H. P.

Love this cafe, cool vibe, friendly staff and fast service. I've only been a few times but the manager Tristan already knows my name. Top notch cafe, highly reccomend.

T. A. M.

Great breakfast and tapas menu the benoffe is served warm with cream n bananas different & delicious! Staff were very friendly & delivered an excellent service, this place is a definite to do.

L. V.

A delicious breakfast, coffee was great and overall a very welcoming vibe.

R. F.

Absolutely love this place. Nestled away down Bath St in Dunedin CBD it brings a vibe you wouldn't expect just walking past. The staff are so helpful and kind, willing to impart their wisdom of the menu you have in front of you. The fire roaring makes it feel so homely and comforting for a nice meal out. I usually go here for breakfast when I need a good pick me up but tonight's dinner takes this place to another level for me. If you can't sit down for a meal the slices are to die for. Always great quality. Can't wait to head back again. One of my top picks for some tapas or even breakfast the next day also.

J.

Lovely place, food excellent staff wonderful a nice place to share food relax & have a conversation, wonderful, recomemd 10 out of 10 Laneway

M. O.

Had lunch here with friends. Delicious food and coffee. My favourites were the pear salad, beetroot salad and angus beef. Friendly staff with welcoming service. Ambiance is minimalist and cozy. Will come back again and highly recommend to others.

J. S.

Best place for coffee in Dunedin, and great breakfast/brunch food. Highly recommend the eggs on fire (pictured) edited to note there is an accessible toilet on the ground floor (hidden to the right of the main entrance)

H. K.

I had such a nice time in this cafe. Also staffs are nice

M.

Creamy and tasty coffee- Thanks

L. M.

Cosy fireside coffee on a comfy leather couch. Always a great cafe/dining experience.

S. C.

Very friendly and helpful staff and the food...WOW! We weren't sure what to expect but heard good things and everything we heard was well earned. Lots of great flavours in their food. The stuffed chicken is worth the wait and the crust on the marinated beef is extraordinary. Looking forward to our next visit.

R. S.

Been coming to Laneway since last year and it has always been pleasant. Love their tomato with pork belly soup!

B. M.

Yum yum yum! The food here is amazing but I also adore the artwork on the building walls!

K. M.

Was a beautiful little gem! Incredible food. The service was fantastic. I had the Vegepatch dish was amazing. The relish we got with our meals was just 😍👌 highly recommended and will definitely be going back. Thanks so much!

c. w.

Nice tapas and good atmosphere that won't break the bank.

J.

B. S.

Laneway Tapas was a great experience. Gorgeous food and amazing service! Can't wait to go back and try more!

K. B.

Great staff, food was awesome!

S.

Tristan and the team at Laneway are outstanding, they go above and beyond for there customers and also make the best mochas!

M. N.

Dinner as a group of four. It did not meet expectations. The tapas were hit and miss. The price would have been acceptable if they were all good. The "crispy" pork belly was best described as flaccid. We sent it back to be made again but the second attempt was the same. It should not have left the kitchen either time and was taken off the bill. Service was very good. Nice atmosphere and good drinks.

M. A.

Absolutely amazing service and the food was great. The atmosphere is really cool and the art is also wonderful. The vibe of the whole place is really sleek yet chill. It h s warm atmosphere and very interesting decor. The food and coffee was quite lovely, and I especially love the fact that some of the art on the walls is for sale.

P. M.

Wonderful service from Ashley. We had a great meal followed by dessert. We loved one of our desserts but were slightly underwhelmed by one. The Management kindly deducted both desserts from our account. Totally recommend the Laneway.

K. M.

Beautiful staff, very friendly :) ordered two coffees and a breakfast muffin they came out suprisingly quick and were very yummy! Nice and warm in this lovely little cafe and got a seat by the window. Thanks ladies :)

S. L.

Beautiful space and great coffee. The bar is much bigger than it appears from the outside and beautifully appointed. Sadly my experience was rather spoiled by the waitress insisting on checking the signature on my credit card for a $4 charge with a rather unpleasant look, which I took to mean that she suspected me of trying to do something wrong. Unwelcoming enough that I would hesitate to return.

I.

Great place, freindly staff. Will be back again

D. H.

Came to the Laneway for breakfast 4 times (while in Dunedin for work), as I really enjoyed the experience, food and coffee. It's open at 7am so suits anyone in Dunedin for work that starts early. Would recommend this place to anyone. Edit: I was wrong about opening time, 6:30am even better!!!

J. D.

Great food with friendly service. Gluten free options were delicious (breads and dips and banoffee jar for us) and the prices were good. Definitely going to return!

J. A.

Great service, couldn't fault it and the food was great too. Had the tasting board and the potato dish- very hot dip for those who don't like heat. Will go again.

r. b.

Absolutely fabulous waitress. Great atmosphere and even better food. Can totally recommend this Café to all.

S. “. S.

Shout out to Tristan, amazing coffee and the best customer service! Thanks Tristan your awesome.

S. H.

Great tapas. Most people will eat two though and the tables are not big enough for all the dishes. Drinks list is not extensive but it's good stuff and priced ok. Will go back.

J. E.

Excellent coffee and great food to be had here. Service with a smile and a chat. A very welcoming cafe tucked away in Bath Street 🤩🤩

D.

Lovely fresh food well presented with wonderful ambience. Great service and most excellent staff. Ka Pai Laneway, Kia Kaha!!!

J. M.

Nice cozy bar to have a few wines and an antipasto platter before going out. Great friendly staff. I've been told the dinning is good to.

R. R.

Googled "Dunedin tapas". Laneway came up high on the list. Despite not being able to access Facebook it looked enticing. It was: excellent tapas lunch with just enough to share but not too much. Have a problem recommending: too fulsome praise will make it difficult to get a table!

R. W.

Desert Review. Taps desert, great idea but the selection of dishes lost some of their elements to get 5 desserts on the plate. For example the chocolate cake was missing some cream or ice cream. The crumble was amazing.

E. C.

Always a favourite when in Dunedin. Some nice surprise twists to the menu offerings.

N.

10/10 food and service!! The waitresses were so friendly and really made the night!

G. H.

Great tapas menu. We have been there twice in ten days. Perfect place for pre match, pre movies or just to meet friends. Good selection of drinks too. Popular but not too crowded

C. M.
