The breakfast food is pretty good - nothing to rave about but they do a good big breakfast, eggs bene and omelettes. The lunch food is a bit more disappointing. They do burger and wedges etc, nothing too out of the box or exciting and not as nice as the breakfast. Overall though the food is OK and the coffee and service more than make up for it.

But once you venture inside, a whole different experience awaits. iCoco has actually won Metro's best cafe award multiple times, and when I came for a breakfast it was obvious as to just why they receive such rave reviews. The service was great - even though the place was super busy, the waitress had time to stop and greet us on her way past, then have a chat with us as my friend puzzled over what to get. The food itself was great - big portions, cooked well, just the way I like it. The coffee was strong and had a heady crema, and despite the amount of people inside, the noise level wasn't too bad. I'll definitely head back , especially for a lunch - as their menu looks too good to miss out.

It's work it.

I think it must have been the name that put me off stopping at Salvation Kitchen first. The…read more"Salvation" bit had me thinking that it was the new home of the Salvation Army, and the eclectic furniture outside was only eclectic out of necessity. I assumed this was a sort of halfway-house cafe, like the Lifewise cafe on K'Road. Whoops! Turns out this place is nothing of the sort. Fresh baking and cabinet food are boundless at Salvation Kitchen - these people sure know how to whip up delights. From calzones and pizzas to brioche and gateau, there's a lot on offer at this place and it's all completely scrumptious.

The girl needed to get her supervisor as she wasn't able to complete her transaction. Supervisor was busy in the bathroom but came and helped quickly but with distractions of her own. It wasn't a relaxed vibe, but I am not judging this as a fixed fact, just as a first impression. The venue is spacious inside and would be good for groups.

It was gutting to see this Grey Lynn institution closed up, but luckily (miraculously?) the place opened up again and has been going strong since. If you're a nut (like me) who prefers to sit outside a café, even in winter, Occam is a literal shelter from the storm. With braziers burning and clear plastic wind-breaker walls from floor to ceiling, Occam is great in the colder months. In summer, you can enjoy a warm breeze and early sun by sitting on the Selbourne Street side of the café. Lovely! If you're into a bit of brunch, Occam's servings are really super generous. So bring a healthy appetite and a pair of stretchy pants. If you're into having a coffee, Occam's is - and has always been - pretty damn good.

It's bright, cheerful and lively, with cabinets and trays of beautiful food everywhere you look, all bursting to be gobbled up. Between us we had lasagne, hot chips (yummy), eggs benedict with salmon (looked fab) and a cream donut which I tried to share but I ended up eating most of it because I couldn't stop. The service was very good despite being busy and there's a separate lounge and kids play area if your darlings like to do more leaping and jumping than sitting up at a table. It's a little off the main street so you'll need to find it, but it means there is parking, which can be hard to find in Titirangi. I definitely recommend PRK because it's a happy cafe experience with a huge array of delicious food to choose from.
