Was only there once, but it definitely left a great impression! The food tasted amazing from the first bite to the last. The menu variety was vast and the customer service was friendly and professional! I believe the Menu has a lot of different varieties of food and preferences like vegan etc. and just like any good Café in Newtown, the coffee is amazing. They also have seating outside which was really relaxing. ——— German (Deutsch): War nur einmal dort, aber es hat definitiv einen bleibenden Eindruck hinterlassen! Das Essen schmeckte von der ersten bis zur letzten Gabel fantastisch. Die Speisekarte war umfangreich, und der Kundenservice war freundlich und professionell! Ich glaube, dass die Speisekarte viele verschiedene Optionen für unterschiedliche Vorlieben, einschließlich veganer Gerichte, bietet. Und wie in jedem guten Café in Newtown ist der Kaffee einfach fantastisch. ⸻ French (Français): Je n’y suis allé qu’une seule fois, mais cela m’a laissé une excellente impression ! La nourriture était délicieuse du début à la fin. Le menu était varié et le service client était à la fois amical et professionnel ! Je crois que le menu propose de nombreuses options pour différentes préférences alimentaires, y compris des plats végétaliens. Et comme tout bon café à Newtown, le café est incroyable. ⸻ Spanish (Español): Solo fui una vez, pero definitivamente me dejó una gran impresión.

I wanted to say a massive thank you to the team at Baobab Cafe for making my sister's birthday so special and thoughtful! Unfortunately I couldn't be there to celebrate my sister's birthday in Wellington, so I scheduled an UberEats breakfast delivery at 11pm the night before her birthday. On the order notes, I asked if they could do something to make it extra special and the team went above and beyond, decorating her French Toast order, the delivery bag and even added a special chocolate cake for her - all ready and delivered by 9am the next morning!! :') :') It was the best start to my sister's birthday, she was thrilled and over the moon. Thanks so much guys!! You are the best - much appreciated. <3

Found a cozy cafe in Newtown. Peaceful coffee dates highly recommended. Place has quite a space for small number of groups. Cafe is bit of busy on morning hours and yet their service is faster too. Staff is friendly and quite helpful with picking up orders. We tried hot chocolate and flat white which was so good. Also we tried eggs boabab which was so delicious. The portion serves for two people. House made potato rostis is finely blended with the pouched eggs. The smoked salmon is also fresh. The have a selective menu and with affordable price ranges. Definitely worth another visit; perhaps more often..

This cafe is situated in a great location in Newtown! The service was pretty good too. The variety was unlimited, however, I happened to unfortunately uncover a horrible menu item. I decided to have the soup of the day, a pumpkin and sweet potato. I thought this sounded great, with a crusty bread roll to accompany it. Turns out I was totally wrong. This 'meal' was a watery, green juice, with an overcooked piece of bread next to it. The soup must have been 95% water, 4% spinach and other greens, leaving 1% sweet potato and pumpkin. I could hardly taste any flavour, as the dish was full of too much boiling water. The burnt bread roll wasn't great either, but certainly the highlight of this catastrophic, disastrous experiment gone wrong. I would not recommend coming here, as it is definitely not good...

In Newtowns cosmopolitan centre is Baobab a rustic cafe offering hearty food with quality ingredients. On entering it is dimly lit with local artwork adorning the walls for sale.Outside is an area to eat and relax however it needs attention with weeds growing higher than the flora. There are murals painted on the walls outside which bring in colour to the very rustic alfresco dining area. There is a menu and also a selection of cabinet food at reasonable prices. Their homemade kombucha has hints of mint and is refreshing. I recommend the empanada which is packed with tasty lamb and served with side salad. The coconut French toast is a brioche fried in coconut oil, but requires a separate serving of maple syrup. Overall a hearty food with...
