We ordered a cake for my daughter's 5th birthday the same day. Ordered at 8am, was supposed to be ready at 5pm. When I arrived they admitted they had completely forgotten about it! They charged half price and delivered to our house which was appreciated given the circumstances. Not ideal as we weren't able to enjoy the awesome look of cake for that long before doing the candles, cutting and getting to bed. The cake itself was awesome with chocolate ganache and piled high with berries on the top. Would go again as long as forgetting orders isn't a regular thing.

Beautifully presented and devilishly decadent cakes, pies, tarts and donuts line the shelves just waiting to be devoured. Order at the counter, grab your plastic zoo animal, which serves as your table number, and pull up a pew at the communal table. Trust me, the food tastes every bit as good as it looks!

There is an exceptional choice of sweet pastries and croissants, plus baked baguettes. An intimate little family run business that surely feels like a slice of Paris in Auckland. I enjoy savoury very much and they offer delicious brushetta baguettes with salmon, or beef. Another fantastic option I sometimes like is baguette rolls filled with salad, relish and rare beef... Ooh lala it will make you say. There is a few seats outside should you require to sit and enjoy your meal and beverage. The staff are very helpful and I'm sure if your interested in learning they would be happy to speak in French with you.

I ordered a sourdough toast, two fried eggs, and smoked salmon on the side. The eggs were high quality with a rich yolk. The toast was lightly crunchy on the crust and fluffy in the middle. The savory salmon made the eggs even much more enjoyable paired nicely with a flat white. Despite the busyness, all the staff worked efficiently serving all the customers in a timely manner. I enjoyed my quick fuel stop after the gym and will be back again.

Always vote highly for a decent coffee place, such as woodside Cafe…read more It is really a surprising place to find in this suburb. I was this close to give up for a cup of coffee then Woodside was just by my side. Simplicity, stylish, neat. It is the kind of Cafe that you might have been to somewhere in the world, however, it possesses its own character for a kiwi touch, like bottles of flowers on each table, the Metro magazine put on the desk, the enthusiastic waitress who give right advice on your dessert paring the coffee.And of course, the perfect coffee! The latte coffee came in right warm temperature, great espresso shot with warm milk and froth ratio, it was so much soothing for a sip after a windy day walking. We followed the waitress advice ordering the ginger slice with sunflower seeds, not too sweet and a bit crunchiness really stranded out for its taste. Gluten free food is another highlight for this little cute Cafe. In Auckland and even in New Zealand, it is more and more handy for people to choose, which is a good sign of the food industry. Keep on with your attitude!

I really enjoyed my visit to Villa Cafe for brunch with a friend…read more I was accompanied by my baby, and her little three year old, and there was enough seating to feel comfortable with lots of toys nearby for the kids to distract themselves with. The counter is up one level from the main seating floor- and this is where you order from: they have a blackboard menu or counter ready made food. All well presented and with a good range. Lovely nice couple who own and work at the cafe, all feels quite laid back. You can sit outdoors also on a covered wooden deck in the warmer season which is great. Villa Cafe prepare coffee as it should be, and homemade cooking to warm the soul.

I do balk a little at the prices however, at around $35 for a lunch main you might be surprised at the bill that arrives at the end of that relaxing midday repas. The service is also quite patchy, I've had to wait up to 15 minutes for a (good) takeaway coffee when they were not busy at all.

Great parking at the back of the building which is an old bungalow house converted into a cafe, of the same name! Clean and stylishly decorated inside and out, the outdoor patio/deck is perfect for a sunny warm day eating our meals. I ordered mince on toast off the menu at the counter, and was visually tempted by lovely sweet eats at the counter display- such as chocolate brownies and fruity muffins. I have to say the views out the back are lovely, looking back towards Auckland the City of Sails, and if you love a nice strong cup of smooth coffee you are sitting in the right cafe. A perfect spot to meet friends for a catch up also and they are child and baby friendly which is a plus. Delightful and Airy and sunny just a great cafe.
