Best breakfast in NZ! We were on our last week of a 4 week trip starting on the South Island in…read moreQueenstown. We had decided up until we got to Rotorua that breakfast is not a NZ strong suit. 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!

This was evident by the multiple birthday parties that were dining there. We felt like one of the locals! They have all kinds of seating for everyone's taste: inside, outside, the quieter front room, and the slightly busier bar area towards the back. There are more rooms in the back that I did not explore. But certainly no shortage of tables. We had the chermoula calamari salad ($24 NZ) and falafel salad ($25.5 NZ). Both were terrific. The salads weren't too big where you might feel wasteful to not eat it all. The calamari was nicely crisp and the falafels were flavorful. They have a wide ranging menu to cover everyone's tastes. Service was efficient and friendly. They even have a bin of toys for restless little tykes. All in all a terrific spot to dine.

We shared a ceasar salad to start and it was lovely, really fresh lettuce and the dressing was just right (I don't like overpowering dressings).

The pasta was delicious and really tasted authentic. The star of the night was the chicken, on top of a sweet potatoe rosti with a light cream sauce, it was superb - chicken was moist and tender and the sauce devine. Service was good, and although the menu dos note that meals could take a while due to using fresh ingredients it was a tad too long, so let them know if time is of an issue.
