We were looking for a little breakfast cafe on our last day in New Zealand and crossed paths with…read morethis place. It was rainy, we were cranky....and we wanted to have a good day....and thus here we were. Americano and tea. Americano served with water to dilute to my liking (a win). Tea served in a personal press (double win!). My buddy got French toast and I got the smashed pea on multigrain (with mint, Parmesan, watercress) with smoked salmon. All of it was scrumptious. The staff were friendly and the service was fast to boot (not a common occurrence in New Zealand). I would definitely come back and, in case you were wondering, it turned out to be a Good day!

Annabelles is just such a place which is beautiful inside, but the views out onto the water are what you really want to see. Like most beachfront cafés, this one can seem a little expensive, but the coffee is reasonable and they do have some affordable tapas and other lunch options on their menu. What you pay a bit extra for is the location and that's fair enough. I'm not the posh type who would often choose a place like this, but chicks love it, and sometimes you just get dragged along. Not that I'm complaining, I enjoy good quality food and coffee and this place has both.

Location: on point - easy street access, nice view of street scene and water. I've been here for diner and breakfast not sure which was better. Most recent was a late breakfast that hit the mark. I had the "hash beni " with mushrooms on the side. It's kinda a spin on eggs Benedict but with hashbrowns as the base. OMG is was good - taste and portion size. To my surprise the only protein were the poached eggs; and yet is did not miss the normal meat. The poached eggs were perfect, soft, slowly running and hot. So come for the food, view, and service; you won't be disappointed

This issue never really bothers me that much, but it really pisses my parents off - getting coffee in a glass just doesn't comprehend in their heads. The cabinet food on offer is pretty good, not the BEST savoury scone/ cheese scone I've ever had; the courgette and celery in the muffin tasted a bit weird, but that could just be because of my boring culinary tastes. There is also a kids menu available, which is pretty appropriate for the family oriented location of the place and the school just up the road. They also had a fantastic looking special on - a hash brown tower with a poached egg and baked beans with a coffee on the side for only $16. Nom!

Having spent next to no time in the area, I was stoked to find C&G, and even more stoked when I walked in and saw they use Kokako beans. For brekkie, I ordered the smoked salmon and cream cheese bagel, which came out with dressed salad of rocket, onion and capers. I usually prefer such accompaniments on my bagel, undressed, but with the generous amount of salmon and C.C already on there I totally forgot about it. Also, they mix fresh herbs through their cream cheese - big tick in my book. Perhaps, what stood for me the most though, was the service. Just little things - like the barista chatting to me while she made my coffee, bringing over water as soon as I sat down or asking how my meal was part way through - sometimes it's just the little things that make all the difference. On a final note, they have terrariums for table numbers!

I got a soy Capp and we got the smashed avo on toast to share as a light brekky. It was so good, they added toasted quinoa to the top which was new for me. We had such a good time hanging out and talking that I ended up ordering another coffee . This time I ordered a soy flat white and asked if they could do some cool latte art for me (I'm a photography nerd and also coffee is like the best thing in the world to me). They tried but when they brought it out they told me it's hard to do latte art with soy milk. I appreciate the effort! I would totally come back here for a meal, I think it would be a great place to come in the afternoon for wine and dinner. The inside is SO. CUTE. It's cozy but comfortable, casual but nice. I really appreciate the decor and the LIGHTS! (See my photos). I would definitely recommend! Also the service was fantastic - the people were super nice and accommodating. Thanks Porch

Water glasses landed on the table about the same moment as we sat down but I have to say that they should ask what you prefer - carbonated or tap. I hate fizzy water and that's what we got. I like the extra touch like offering straw hats for the sun given there is no shade there in the Summer time. Café on Kohi is part of the same group as Takapuna Beach Café and Rosie in Parnell to name a few of the Hip Groups establishments (and all my fav). They all have a similar feel with great food and great service. The place was packed but the food came quickly, the Matre-D was great value and reminded me that I could take a doggie bag home when I found the dish I chose was bigger than my appetite. My platter was made up of Pancetta, Toulouse sausage, smoked Trevally, paper thin pickles in mustard, olives and toasted sour dough. It was great and I did take some home but if there was cheese it would have been perfect. My friend had the rotisserie chicken with couscous and yoghurt and said that was good. The wait for a table is only a short wait so if you haven't been get yourself along there.

The cafe was heaving but we were luckily able to grab some chairs and along with a small side table outside. We were enjoying out fantastic (as per usual) coffee when disaster struck. Lulu took exception to a passing Jack Russell and lunged sending the table, the glasses and cups flying, amid yapping dogs and human squeals. No problem for the Kohi team, who were straight out with brooms to sweep up the debris. Glass was everywhere. Then without a blink, fresh water and new coffees were delivered to calm the humans' nerves. Great to see such fantastic service! I would highly recommend the Kohi Cafe. It's a great place to hang out for coffee, especially on a sunny afternoon when you can sit right on the footpath - just watch out for passing Jack Russells. P.S. Try the attached Store for some award-winning ice cream!
