Cafe Cezwe — Restaurant in Kaipātiki

This Mediterranean cafe was truly extraordinary. Stepping inside felt like being transported to Turkey, with its beautifully themed interior. The staff were incredibly delightful and welcoming, adding to the warm atmosphere.

My partner and I visited for a Saturday brunch date and ordered Turkish coffee, a decaf iced latte, and two dishes: Moorish Eggs and the Turkish Breakfast.

The Turkish coffee was similar to an espresso but lighter, smoother, and wonderfully rich – a delightful experience. The Moorish Eggs were a highlight, with perfectly seasoned meatballs in a flavourful tomato sauce. Pairing the Turkish bread with the sauce and meatballs created a sensational combination.

The Turkish Breakfast offered a variety of fresh, healthy options like cucumbers, fried eggs, and tomatoes. The two crispy Boreks were an absolute favorite, so much so that I wished for more even after getting full. The dish also included a mix of sweet jam and halloumi cheese, which made it even more enjoyable.

Overall, it was an exciting and unique experience. This cafe is a gem in North Auckland, and I highly...

cezwe is one of my favorite café. I first discovered cezwe on good review online and thought I'll try it out. And it's been almost 2 years and I still a regular at cezwe. their coffee is amazing. they roast their own. the best coffee in the Shore. And the food is absolutely delicious with big portions even. Jasmine and Hasan are the 2 chef's and they are amazing. but i get super excited when Jasmine is on duty lol (shhh don'ttell Hasan). and let's not forget their friendly service. the staff are super friendly and wonderful bunch of people. the Owner is even more amazing. always greeting you with big smile and serving you with an even biger smile.

I had driven past this cafe many times and the name always caught my eye. Finally, I got to go inside when I caught up with a work colleague. I have to say the friendliest staff. I had forgotten my bank card so I only had my phone to use paywave but as paywave wasn't accepted, the owner (I believe he was the owner) stepped in and allowed me to do a bank transfer, easy! I got my piping hot Mocha which went down really nice and I ordered the French Toast dish. French toast is my go-to when I'm not sure what to eat and this was the nicest french toast I've ever tasted. I believe it was some kind of Turkish bread, cinnamon sugar dusted and the texture and taste was beyond delicious. It came with a tasty berry compote and caramelised banana as well as maple syrup/sour cream. It's a very pleasant and rustic environment with a covered outdoor area and plenty of space. Highly...
