Atelier Shu, Newmarket

Drinks pictured: Purple yam latte and iced americano ($7).

Went to Atelier Shu for the first time a few weeks ago. It was quite hot so I just had an iced americano while my friend had a purple yam latte. They do a variety of drinks and dessert/pastries and have seating indoors and outdoors.

Domain & Ayr, Parnell

Drinks pictured: Oat piccolo ($6), iced americano ($6.5) and iced chocolate ($6.5).

Went back to Domain & Ayr in Parnell after a long time. Actually ended up going twice within a week. Had an oat milk piccolo the first time and an iced americano the second time. Both were good! They use beans from Kokako Coffee Roasters. There have mostly seats indoors with a few benches outside as well!

Rhu, Parnell

Drink pictured: Oat flat white ($7.5).

Visited the newly opened Rhu in Parnell. They use beans from Havana Coffee Roasters, and I really enjoyed my oat flat white! They only have indoor seating and the place was packed so we only got bar seats - would recommend booking if you can.

Coffee Supreme home coffee

Beans pictured: Holiday Blend Filter ($18) and Kenya Kamwangi ($21.5).

These arrived a couple of days ago. Just started the Holiday blend today. Always enjoy trying different roasteries' summer blends!

Holiday, Mount Eden

Drink pictured: Oat flat white ($7)

After passing by Holiday on the bus for over a year, I finally made it there! It's a pretty minimal space with a small menu. They do coffee and some cabinet food, and only have takeaway cups on the weekend. It was busy when I was there on Saturday. They have two long seats inside and two small benches outside.

Folletto Cafe, Auckland CBD

Drinks pictured: Iced americano ($4.5) and iced caramel macchiato.

Visited the newly opened Folletto Cafe in the CBD. They have a robot barista that makes all the regular espresso based drinks! It can do hot drinks, and iced drinks, as well as some iced non-coffee drinks! They didn't have an option for alternative milk drinks made by the robot barista so I had a strong iced americano, while my friend had the iced caramel macchiato (the Starbucks type). They do have a human barista who can make drinks from the specialty drinks menu, and they use beans from Bricks Roastery. They also have a selfie studio in there, and Folletto has another location on K Road also!

Beanee Eatery, Remuera

Drink pictured: Oat flat white.

Happy New Year!

Went to Beanee Eatery in Remuera a few weeks ago. They use beans from L'Affare, and I really enjoyed my flat white. They mostly have indoor seating, with a few tables outside, and they also offer free wifi!

Folds Patisserie, Mount Eden

Drinks pictured: Oat flat white, hot chocolate, iced oat matcha latte, iced oat dirty matcha latte, iced almond lychee matcha latte.

Been to Folds Patisserie quite a few times over the last few months, as I live quite close by! They use beans from Ozone Coffee Roasters, and matcha from Thea Matcha. I've had both coffee and matcha there, and recently I tried an iced dirty matcha latte for the first time! They do a bunch of specialty drinks, and also really lovely pastries, and I'd like to go back there to try Hojicha sometime. They currently have a "12 days of Christmas" deal going with tomorrow being the last day!

Flight Coffee Black Friday Sale

Beans pictured: Sunshine blend ($18 for 250g).

Drinks pictured: Iced oat flat white ($22 for 4 cans), iced oat milk matcha latte ($22 for 4 cans).

Bought some stuff from the Flight Coffee Black Friday sale. Already tried the oat flat white and oat matcha latte cans, and really liked them, though the matcha tasted like it was sweetened. Will probably be using the Sunshine blend to make cold brew at home.

Slow Koi Kohi, Auckland CBD

Drinks pictured: Oat flat white ($6.3) and hot chocolate.

Visited the newly opened Slow Koi Kohi in the CBD. Their space is all black with some sleek office chairs and a peaceful fish swimming in the little aquarium. I had an oat flat white, and the cups they serve their coffee in were like little clay pots, and also black! They have a screen that you use to order your drink. They offer matcha, as well as pourovers and some other specialty drinks. I'd definitely like to go back to try their matcha one day! They are also open till 9pm on Friday and Saturday, which is quite rare for Auckland cafes. 🥹

Young Dandy, Parnell

Drinks pictured: Oat flat white ($6.5) and hot chocolate ($5.5).

Visited Young Dandy in Parnell a few weeks ago. It's a spacious cafe with mostly indoor seats and a couple of outdoor seats. They use Ozone Coffee beans, and also do pourovers! I don't go to Parnell too often so I am glad to have finally made it to Young Dandy, and it might be one of my favourites there!

Tob Coffee Roasters, Rosedale

Drinks pictured: Oat flat white ($5.5) and hot chocolate ($5).

Finally visited Tob Coffee in Rosedale after having a bunch of people recommend it to me, and it did not disappoint! They use their own beans, and also sell a variety of beans and coffee pods as well. It's not really a brunch place, more for coffee and pastries, and I also really liked their woody interiors.

Capers Cafe & Store, Rotorua

Drinks pictured: Almond flat white and hot chocolate.

The other cafe stop in Rotorua was Capers Cafe & Store, where I have been a few times before. They have their own blend roasted by Organico. I had an almond flat white there. The cafe is large and was quite busy, and they have a pantry section as well. I quite liked that the barista had their own little section to work in and they had this pipe/tap for dispensing the regular milk, so they wouldn't need to keep picking up and pouring milk out of the bottles.

Mr. Wolf, Rotorua

Drinks pictured: Oat flat white ($5.5) and hot chocolate ($5).

Was in Rotorua a week ago and tried two cafes there. One if them was Mr. Wolf, which was opened in the winter by the same people who run Okere Falls Store. I had been to Okere Falls Store in 2021 and now they have their own beans which are also used at Mr. Wolf! Mr. Wolf is in Rotorua CBD by the i-Site. It's quite a spacious cafe, and I liked their green tiles that they have at the counter!
