Cafe Demitasse — Restaurant in North Island

Wanna try the best coffee in Tauranga? And the best poached eggs on toast you’ll ever eat? Then head on down to Café Demitasse on Cameron Road. They are open early for your on-the-way-to-work caffeine fix. Or, if, like us, you are just kicking off another lazy holiday day, this is a great place to start.

Sit out on the deck (now Smoke Free...well done youse guyses!) and watch the world pass by while you sip your chosen brew. And, I gotta say, the poached eggs on toast I had at Café Demitasse, with a pot of English Breakfast tea, was one of the best I’ve ever had. But how, I hear you ask, can you say that something as simple as eggs on toast be such a standout? To which I say: “don’t just take my word for it...go and try them...

I ordered a cappuccino and not once but twice did the girl delivering the coffee had to go back inside to wipe the plate down as she was spilling the coffee everywhere. Staff/ "Baristas" clearly need training, this was barely a flat white let alone a Cappuccino and far too much syrup was used in the coffee, completely undrinkeable. Waste of money. Probably the worst coffee yet I've had in the bop, won't be back Can't rate the atmosphere as there was no other customers in the cafe...

A nice spot, and was beautiful outside on the deck in the sun.

The girl on the till seemed a bit flustered, it took an absolute age to take our orders - just two hot drinks, and nothing unique about them like specialist milk, etc. But she was friendly at least.

My hot chocolate was pretty poor I have to say. Definitely not as nice as other locations in town.

I'd probably come back as it's a nice spot, but definitely no more hot...
