Next time! :) Thanks for a great breakfast to end our visit to this beautiful region!

The staff here are friendly and nice and the menu made it hard to decide what to order since I wanted to try everything. Along with a breakfast/brunch menu, they also have some strong coffee and other baked goods to check out. The food portion was generous and the food was delicious. We actually had to pack some to go since we couldn't finish everything. Also, it was awesome that they had wifi because our service wasn't very great since we were from a different country. Overall, good food and friendly service.

This place, although only a few of the options are vegan, is right up there. And if you read my reviews, I don't give that many five star reviews. Like the railway next door, this place is very Coromandel, and you must visit the cafe when you visit the railway. It's very rustic, and not a little bit hippy. The food has immaculate and fancy presentation (flowers, but not pretentious). I had a tempeh wrap, and even though I don't really like tempeh, it was awesome. Also had by my son were some very acceptable pancakes (crepes, if you're reading in American ;-) and my mother had high praise for her burger. If there's only one place you eat in Coromandel, made it here.

Came here after a full day of hiking with sore feet and a flat tire (seriously, screw this gravel…read moreroad nonsense). We needed a fix, stat! The prescription? A mussel pot ($17), steaming in a delicious thai coconut milk concoction, and CMK's famous chowder ($17). It's easy to pack chowder with potato, heavy cream, and call it a day - as a once-ago Bostonian, I've seen this far too frequently - but CMK did their dish justice. Great balance of mussels, leek, spring onion and whole milk. The pot mussels were phenomenal too, plenty of broth to be sopped up with sourdough bread. Coromandel Brewing Company beer was a welcome treat for these tired travelers :) Easy Rider Ale and a pilsner available, 500 mL for $9. A must-visit for anyone passing through Coromandel Town.

Service was....ok...., but it's usually a little off-putting when I ask for sugar in my latte and they snap back at me to put it in myself. I get it, you DO have sugar on the tables, but it either gets trapped in the foam or completely sinks to the bottom. Meaning, I have a too-bitter latte up front and a way-too-sweet latte at the end. When a barista cares enough to mix everything in together, it really comes out to be the perfect latte. It also just takes 5 second for them to do. Why get pissy? Hopefully, eventually, I'll like my coffee without sugar. Until then, please help a sister out. Other than that, food was excellent. Perfect amount of hollandaise on benny; loved the fresh spinach and basil as well. Husband's French toast was also great. Their toast is a thick, flakey thing that is hard to describe and delicious to eat. Not like american toast. It has more of the consistency of fluffy cornbread with a smattering of herbs and seasonings, and really is divine. They open at 8, which is a little later than most cafes we've been to, but worth it for a delicious and hearty breakfast/brunch.

Indeed, they were excellent with a unique tomato relish that complemented the flavor profile nicely. Typically, any time a restaurant messes with the traditional Benedict recipe, it's for the worse. But this was a rare win in these rarefied waters. I also tried a chocolate cake that was a bit dry and not worth the calories. They made my dry cappuccino exactly as I asked though the espresso beans were a little more bitter than I typically care for. The juices came from a bottle but were OK. Overall, it was a good experience with a friendly staff, nice view of the ocean and fast service. Definitely worth a stop if you're a Benny fan.
