You can just have an excellent coffee for a short break or stay there longer enjoying the atmosphere, people and food, actually I wrote most of my MBA research project report there a couple of years ago. And I go there as often as I can. If you need to boost your creativity, get rid of writers block or just have fun with your family and friends this is the place to go. I love it, I love Days Bay and I love the smiles there. I have never seen a grumpy face in this cafe.

When checking out the menu I ordered the green smoothie and the French toast. When our food arrived, they actually brought out a different dish however I told them I ordered the French toast they were extremely apologetic. It seemed to be a little of language barrier with accents. The French toast was delicious- it was warm and comforting, the topping was crunchy but strawberry mousse was smooth. We went up the pay and the man apologized again and removed my Smoothie from the bill. Highly recommend! Sweet people and friendly atmosphere.

The service was friendly and the coffee was excellent.

Service is lovely - friendly, responsive, sensible and quick. We enjoyed omelette with a side of avocado, followed by really good coffee. They have no problems adjusting menu items for dietary requirements, which is appreciated. The location means you can sit either inside or out and watch the world pass by as you relax. It's a really welcoming, relaxing, good place. Thank you, I'll definitely come back.

It's great that it it is so close to the city, yet seems far enough away to be a good weekend spot. The coffee is good and meals are always satisfying - but they can take a while.

Dinner is great too - open just a few nights a week - I would rate some of those meals as amongst the best I've ever enjoyed. The dinner menu is ever changing but there seems an emphasis on Italian and there are always a few vegetarian options. Am pleased that this cafe is my local and that in addition to the great food the people are lovely too.

The grilled broccoli, feta, almond, and lemon salad was also delicious. Their breakfast menu supposedly stops at 11:30, so there is an odd gap between their lunch service that starts at 12, but they'll probably let you order breakfast all the way up until 12. Don't quote me on that. The ambiance is cute, but what cafe in Wellington isn't?? There's an adequate amount of seating. I noticed there were a lot of business lunch meetings taking place here too. Let me in on that! I swear, I thought I was going to turn into an avocado when I was in Wellington. Something about their avocados is just soooooo good. Overall, this is a good cafe, but amidst the rest of cafés in Wellington, there are others out there. However, don't miss this place! Only a flight of stairs off Willis st. Look for the sign.
