Friendly service with a proper dry cappuccino kept me smiling throughout a relaxed breakfast experience.

Two waffles were accompanied with crispy bacon and fried bananas, lightly sprinkled in powdered sugar with some lovely thick maple syrup as well. I'm sure there were no calories in this dish. I ate every morsel. It was so good. With my waffles, I had a creamy, hot latte topped with beautiful latte art. I also had a few slurps of Husband's berry smoothie. Oh was that good too. Everything was so yummy. Service was good. You review the menu and order at the counter. They bring your food and drinks to you. Lots of seating. Street parking was easy and they open a bit earlier than most other breakfast places. Great experience.

That is until we walked into to Capers before our kayak adventure. The bagel & eggs Benedict with bacon was fantastic and had us coming back. Everything thing from the pastries to the entrees had a little extra care in its preparation and presentation. Later that day we ordered takeaway Vegetarian lasagna & chicken curry & rice. No disappointments here, both were on point. The left over lasagna was better the following afternoon. Over course we were back for breakfast before we left Rotorua. The coffee was excellent, we had spicy chai lattes, lattes & long blacks in our many visits. Order anything, you can't go wrong!
