Eve's Pantry is a bakery-style cafe. The Henderson branch is a lot bigger than the one in Takapuna…read moreso there's plenty of seating available. As for the menu, the cakes and pastries would have to be the highlight but there's plenty of other cabinet foods to choose from too. The service is fine but the place lacks any sort of ambiance or style. That being said, their vanilla squares are legendary!

Tucked away in amongst several dozen small light industrial business's in Henderson this place when…read moretalking of baking is as the star rating goes " as good as it get's!!". Owned and run by a Swiss man it turns out just as the name suggests ...patisseries from the hands of a Swiss master at his profession, and his fares are proof of this. Delicious !! with a big big capital D is how to describe it. We first heard of it from various sources and so had to try for ourselves. We had in particular the Baked Vanilla Cheesecake which was outstanding. They have plenty more from which you can order. The actual place is only open to the public from Wednesday to Saturday but if you want you can order and pick up any day except for Sunday when closed. If you do walk in on the Wednesday to Saturday opening times they have a selection of tarts, cakes etc on display but it may not be too extensive as the owner told me they cater mostly for non public customers so do not get too carried away with baking too much for selling on site. Overall highly recommend and totally worth the trip out west for!!

I'm a loyal person. For me the Westside Bakehouse has been an example of what a bakery should…read morebe...but was sold, years ago. I used to just love their steak 'n' cheese pies of old, but thought I'd try one today for old times sake. All in all, it was a good pie. I don't like flaky pastry in a pie...I'm more of a short crust fan. It doesn't fall apart when being gobbled at speed nor does it make a huge mess while driving. The pie I got was piping hot. There was a couple of steak which had been seasoned well. The rest of the filling was gravy and melted cheese. Very tasty but could have don with more steak. I mean, I paid for a steak 'n' cheese, not gravy 'n' cheese. I bought an afghan because they looked scrumptious. Unfortunately, it was not as good as it looked. Lastly, I happened to buy a banana and caramel tart. I'm more of a custard pie fan. This was no tart, it was too big. Plus it had no hallmarks of a tart. What it was though, was a banoffee pie. A miniature one. If you love banoffee, then this is the treat for you. Hell, I don't even like banoffee pie. I love this one from the Westside Bakehouse. And I'll make sure I pop in to buy the "BANANA CARAMEL TART."

It's not where rappers stock up on muffins before "doing a drive-by" (although presumably they must get muffins somewhere). No, Westside Bakery is just a bakery on the west side and self-proclaimed "Lunche Bar" run by a polite Asian couple. The food is catered to truck drivers and road workers and manly men made of steel and brawn. Fried things and pastried things and really good pies and humble filled rolls that are being phased out of Auckland by a fancy Panini Revolution. A fine place to pick up a cheap lunch on the go.

A big birthday party demands a beautiful big birthday cake. We picked the new cupcake store in…read moreHenderson to do the honours, and were not disappointed. The large double decker chocolate cake with cream frosting icing was decadent and delicious. We were pleased as punch to receive a small box of complimentary mini cupcakes, which the kids devoured.

GREAT PIES (or they used to be) BUT WHAT A B^&*^$#! As most Yelpers, you take pics of the place. So…read moreI'm taking my pics the cashier walks out from behind the counter and says no pics and stood there as I deleted them. As I've deleted all of them, she said delete more but there are no more pics to delete...wth. This is normally my go to place for meat pies and I kind of wanted to brush it off, so as I'm paying for my 2 potato top pies, she asks where I'm from. I told her I'm from America, she said no. Uhh...I think I know where I'm from...so she says no you're from China, I told her again that I'm from America. She said Americans have respect and that I'm from China and that she could also report me. I said go ahead, you can report me. I walked out feeling the crap, 2 potato top pies, & my change. If only she had asked me about my nationality before and accused me for lying and making me feel like shit, I would have walked out without buying anything. Now, I can no longer eat their pies. I also wish I had a witness to at least see how that place treats people.
