Honey Sundays — Restaurant in Waitematā

Honestly this place is the best!

We're so lucky to live near by but we would still come here still even if we lived far away. The coffees are always consistently great, the staff are ALWAYS the nicest people ever and I have it on good authority from my fiance (who fancies herself as a bit of an almond croissant connoisseur) that these are THE BEST ALMOND CROISSANTS in Auckland, ...maybe in New Zealand.

The reason I felt obliged to write this review is because I went today for my fiance's almond croissant and they were all out which would have devastated her. But despite being really busy they offered to make her one up if I could wait 10 minutes. Legends! And it was probably the best one yet!

I'd honestly give these guys 6 stars if I could...No pics because it was eaten to quickly for me...

This café is right next to a really popular public primary school, and you can see the ocean from the tables – the breeze is amazing and the whole place just feels like a summer getaway. I ordered the Classic Açaí Bowl for $19. They’ve got a few different versions: Classic, Biscoff, and one with Greek yoghurt and caramelised cinnamon banana. There’s even a whole Smoothie Bowl range, like Greek, Cacao, and Reef – so lots to choose from if you’re into açaí.

What I loved most was how being here makes you feel like you’re on holiday. The staff are friendly, the service is thoughtful, and they seem like the kind of people you could probably ask for surfing tips too. If you’re looking to cool off this summer, definitely swing by. You’ll get those holiday vibes straight away....

Honey Sundays is one of those places that just feels easy to come back to. Elyse and the team are always welcoming and create a really relaxed, friendly atmosphere. You never feel rushed, and there’s a nice community feel whenever you’re in.

The food is reliably good across the board, with plenty of variety, but the stand-out for me has to be the cheese scones — light, perfectly baked, and full of flavour. They’re easily some of the best I’ve had anywhere.

It’s the mix of good food, great coffee, and genuinely kind service that makes Honey Sundays a favourite. If you’re in the area, it’s definitely worth making it a...
