Dear Deer Coffee Roasting Bar Ellerslie — Restaurant in Ōrākei

This rating is for 2pm as the atmosphere in any cafe at this time is usually dying down. Service was average being the end of the day but that’s why good places provide their culture and good seevide to the end get 5 stars. Could have caught a bad day seeing the other reviews. Coffee: so good! Perfect temp, smooth n tasty. Mushroom melt: good bread n cheese. Maybe needs a relish so it’s not so rich. Once again I don’t usually hit cafes at this time but being a new place in Auckland and seeing the reviews I had to try! Definitely come back! And the price is so good! Coffee and toastie for $18 in...

Amazing coffee roasting bar concept where you get to choose your coffee beans and have it roasted right there and then, your freshly roasted coffee beans are ready in 10 mins. There are over 30 different kind of beans for you to choose from. Also fascinating to see that coffee are quite pale before roasting.

Of course, their coffee is very good and ice matcha latte is top notch.

There also have grilled sandwiches available which I'm looking forward to try next time.

This café is one of my favorites for a reason. The drinks are creative, the coffee is consistently excellent, and the atmosphere is cozy, tidy, and welcoming. You can tell the baristas are skilled and take pride in their work.

I’ve tried the Dirty Matcha Iced Latte and White Mocha, both were absolutely delicious. While the original location is a bit far from Massey, I’m excited that they’ve just opened a new branch in Glen Eden, which is much closer to my workplace. Looking forward to...
