    The Breakfast Bap
    Brian H.

    Little Bread and Butter is a favourite of ours. Its part of the bustling Ponsonby Central complex but you can always get a spot. The food is great - it's more cabinet than menu based - and the sourdough breads to try on the spot or take out are top class! The cafe/bakery is a regular morning spot for me. It's on the way to work and I will often visit for a quick snack-type breakfast and partake of the two sources of free wifi and spend an hour or two catching up on work while increasing my caffeine levels. It's also great for meetings. Try the toast with assorted preserves on the table but the breakfast bap with bacon, egg, cheese, aioli and tomato relish is our favourite. Staff are great and look after their regulars. The coffee is Five Elements and never disappoints.

    Bread the way it should be done

    There is nothing, I repeat, nothing like freshly baked bread. Little Bread & Butter is taking the genre bakery back to the way it used to be. They're 100% organic which is a huge step from the yellow-tinged pastries that fill most of our bakeries. They also do coffee, so you can breakfast the way they do in France, with a croissant in one hand and a strong brew in the other. We had the brioche, which was so delicious. Definitely worth breaking my gluten-free diet for, oops. I was also eyeing up their pretzels, which I will definitely be back for. Another thing I loved was their hanging light bulbs and cute wall art.

    I am a fan of Little Bread and Butter. Mostly because the name is just so cute. But also because they really provide amazing little and big delicacies. My workmate comes here at least once a week for the BLAT which is well known, and they also do cute little sizes for bites and then the big mouth feeders. It is in the centre of Ponsonby in the midst of the hip and happening Ponsonby central. You can dine in or take away, although dining in doesn't look so appealing as the seats are tiny and the tables awkward, so it is probably more for hipster show. I also am really frustrated that the lovely little place doesn't offer that many great vegetarian options. Perhaps I came at the wrong time (early morning though, so maybe not). But still, I was disappointed, as like a selection.

    Peaking out from the side of Ponsonby Central is this little bakery/cafe, the perfect place to pop in for an early morning flat white and croissant.

The ambiance was vibey and loved that I was sitting outside, but still covered from the sun. The waiters were so nice and were able to answer any questions I had. I ordered an iced hazelnut oatmilk latte and a fried chicken benedict and they were delicious! The latte was the perfect drink to wake me up for a busy day ahead! They definitely do eggs benedict different but it was still so tasty. Instead of the usual english muffin, they used an herb rostis, which is a crispy hash brown round. The fried chicken was juicy and crispy. The herb rostis was also crispy and paired well with the creamy poached eggs! I miss this meal so much and dreaming of having this again the next time I go back to Auckland!

I love that they offered both still water or sparkling for the table. I ordered the salmon benedict and it was delicious! Their menu offers gluten free as well as dairy free options. Vegetarian or vegan? They have options for you too. I ordered an Americano and it was full bodied and came in a large mug. I only wish we'd had more time in Auckland so I could come here again.

Our server was super sweet and attentive until we placed our orders. We never saw her again, no mention she was leaving for the day (I could see her inside on her cell phone and changed with a backpack). Our food was delivered and the other server didn't seem to notice (or care) that our water glasses were empty, as I found out that she too were on her way out of work. We didn't get water refills until the check came, in which is was a third server and then it took probably 2mins for her to run our card because she was busy setting tables and chatting with coworkers. The food here was amazing and filling- large portions, but the Mac n cheese was disappointing. I would give this 4 stars, but due to the fact that the servers are more interested in going home and chatting with coworkers than taking care of their guests (at one point we were the only table in the whole place and still couldn't get a water refill), this place is getting only 2 stars. It's got potential if it gets new staff.

We had no idea that the request would be so difficult to fill, but were quite impressed with the lengths she took to make our meal enjoyable. The rest of our meal was delicious food & great service. I read the previous reviews. I would recommend that give this place another chance.
