Lombardi's also have delicious mains. Their café-style menu comprises fresh, organic, a big range of gluten free and wherever possible local produce. Everything is home-made on site and you really can taste the difference! Their pizzas are legendary as is the range of delicatessen finger food like Thai noodle cake, spinach and feta risotto bites or Harissa lamb koftas. My boss shouted me lunch here and we feasted on a Deli tasting platter of olives, specialty cheeses, cured meats and dips. Added to this was a huge plate of salads from the counter, roasted vegetable salad, lentil, couscous and the freshest green salad. What a treat

It comes with spicy bell peppers on delicious toast. Super good! Service is great and quick. They have free WiFi. Also the almond croissant is the best. The best Jerry! Oh and it also has a great kids playground right next door that the kids can play at while you eat! It's not completely closed off so small kids would need supervising. My kids (6 and 4) didn't need supervising. Plus a changing table in the bathroom.

For this place it's no longer a cafe but a Indian Cusine. I bought some butter chicken and loved…read moreit. I'm going to be honest the curry wasn't up to my standard in heat felt just about 60 degrees. But I still enjoyed it. Good service they even offer takeaways. Cheap and affordable 12.50 seems decent for butter chicken and rice. If you want to eat Indian I can recommend this place if you're in greenhithe.

I had an excellent mocha Frappe from here. The coffee hit was pretty strong but went down smoothly…read moreand the chocolate flavour wasn't too overpowered by the coffee. It came in a nice big takeaway cup just the way I like it. The café itself has a really cool feel inside. I love the big leathery booths and the mirrors all around. Gives it a kind of retro ish feel. The signs all around were boasting about the frappes and that's why I had to try one myself. I can be very fussy about frappes and iced chocolates because I like them a certain way and this was exactly what I wanted. After I'd started slurping I saw a certificate clinging to the window bragging about someone who is obviously a very talented barista. Siyang Wang was awarded Bronze for barista at the 2012 Culinary Fare. Pretty impressive stuff. Will have to try a coffee next time I'm here.

Their paleo burgers are really worth a try! They have a number of food options in the cabinet as well ready to take away. Their coffee is good and they have drink fridges full of Kombucha and coconut water.

Great food and a lot of it. I would definitely go back. Got our food quickly and service was good!read more

This isn't a bakery in the sense I would use the term. They're simply selling premade pies and…read morepastries, and they're the typical ones you'd expect from any such place. Pre-warmed pies with gluey fillings. The grilled sausages were okay. I sure wouldn't go out of my way for this place. You can get the same stuff just about anywhere. And no soap in the loo.

Everything looked and smelled delicious at Whenuapai Bakery…read more However having heard about their 2012 Gold in the Bakels New Zealand Supreme Pie Awards I headed for the pie counter. Category winner, Steak and Cheese, is the pie I ordered, at $4.00 it is a little beauty. The pastry is delicately flakey and perfectly crisp, the filling is perfectly flavoured and balanced. Well deserving of its Gold accolade. There is a whole range of other pie flavours like bacon and egg, potato top, chicken, mince etc and you can bet they would also taste delicious. You can order main meals from the blackboard menu if you prefer non counter fare. Their range of sweet cakes and treats looked fabulous, in all a great place to grab a bite. If you are not on the run, then relax in the restaurant as they have plenty of seating and it is clean and modern.

I attended an acoustic afternoon at the Collins Cafe and Bar on the weekend and was really…read moresurprised at how cool and amazing this homely spot was. The cafe is set into a bungalow house which is redecorated in a very funky look, that screams designer! The outdoor section is massive and perfect for families to hang out no matter what the size! My family and I seated ourselves at the expansive deck which could seat many groups, service was prompt and within minutes of discussing the brunch menu options we had ordered and were happily grooving along to the live music. Easy off street parking onsite makes for happy customers from the moment you arrive at The Collins. The brunch menu was quite a neat mixture of fusion classics such as Huevos Benedicto's: a Mexican twist on Eggs Benedict; which I naturally could not resist the eggs were perfection. Two of my group ordered the Ricotta Hotcakes, mouth watering amazingness; I treated myself to a sample and was sold on the spot! Another two of the family ordered The Caribbean however the burger was served on "vienna" buns which were on the cheap taste side although the rest of the dish delivered with flavor and oomph. Aasahi on tap to quench the thirst on a hot summers day, always a winner. Inside the counter beckons with sweet slices and cakes so be sure not too over fill on the main, because dessert awaits. I loved the free spirit of the whole place, that the kids could roam and be free and that you really felt a genuine neighborhood vibe. I will be back to sample more of the menu maybe even for dinner...

They are only open cafe hours not restaurant hours. The fries isn't like restaurant quality it's like mc donalds fries with no seasoning.

The service is good I have to say that when I ask for more aioli I get aoli when I order the food is always on time no need to wait 20 minutes. I give it 2 out of 5
