The North Shore cafe game sure is powering strong. These past few years has seen Milford open iconic cafes like Little King, Bread & Butter Cafe, and Mellow – changing the ageing face of the area. Backed by Milford Beach…
Homestead
Many years ago, I had the privilege of visiting Pah Homestead in Monte Cecilia Park for a wedding. The classy 1870’s Hillsborough heritage property struck me with its handsome charm. Overlooking Monte Cecilia Park at the top of the slight…
The Artisan
The Artisan lives exactly to its name. Not something you’d expect to find around the area of Wiri for quick stop bites. The tables were painted in an electric blue and adorned with well loved vintage looking plates – something…
Cereal Killa
On the menu, there were two Killa shakes but the word of mouth special was a toffee caramel popcorn shake with waffle. At $12.50 and three sticks of waffles, it was a meal in itself. I loooved the peanut butter…

Odettes Eatery
Odettes Eatery is like a breath of oasis to the industrial grind atmosphere of Shed 5. Whilst the previous motorbike cafe was interesting, the location didn’t give it the spotlight it deserved. As experienced owners of Zomer cafe in…
L’oeuf
The space of L’oeuf is beautiful. It’s uncluttered, it’s relaxing – adorned with cascading plants on tables and shelves. There’s the relaxed vibe of Little and Friday, with more structure in the layout with earthy tones of the smooth chairs…
