    Free mini mousse with purchase! The chocolate and mango are amazing.

    What a beautiful and yummy place to stop for a sweet treat! The cakes, cookies, pastries, and mousses were so lovely! We had the mango mousse, chocolate mousse, and an eclair with chocolate. All were light, creamy, and delicately delicious. If you're in the mood for a little sweet, stop here. You'll be happy you did :)

    Thank goodness for the Gateau House on Queen Street. It's been getting hundreds of AUT students through their degrees since forever. So much so that in times of desperate need our Uni tutor would stop the class and say 'ok, you've got five minutes to go get a coffee' and we'd all race down to the Gateau House as fast as possible. We'd all then be in a way better state to complete the class. Unfortunately my favourite barista, Joe, no longer works there. He knew everyone's names, what they studied and what coffee they wanted. He'd often chuck in a free coffee for us poor students every now and again. I love that he put the effort in to get to know us all and it made me want to go there every morning to support him. I have been there since Joe has left and the other staff are just as friendly and make just as good coffee. Their cakes are pretty darn good too. I could literally eat a whole baked cheesecake by myself but my thighs won't let me.

    As a massive nerd, I have to say, I'm so happy this place exists…read more Cakes and Ladders is, as far as I know, Auckland's only board game cafe. They have an impressive stock of board and card games--for adults and for families--the nicest, friendliest staff you could ask for, and a comfy interior setup for your hours of board gaming pleasure. The coffee is pretty decent as well, although none of my friends nor I have tried the food menu just yet. Here's how it works: you walk in, you pick a table, and the staff start your timer. Then you can either pick a game or have one recommended to you based on pretty much whatever criteria you want, and if it's a new game to you, the (again, wonderfully friendly) staff explain the rules and setup to you. Then you play--for hours, if you want. At $2.50 an hour, it's a steal. (Also, they're currently awaiting their liquor license, so although there's no alcohol there yet, just you wait. Craft beers are on their way!) They close at 10pm, I believe, at least on the weekends, but once the booze arrives, I'm hoping they stay open a wee bit later. I'm definitely going back, often.

    This place is awesome!!! Came with my husband and had a great time. They have so many games!!!…read morePerfect for groups and for just 2 people. They have a specific shelf full of games that require only 2 players. A great way to spend an afternoon or evening. Can get noisey but adds to the fun.
