Coffee Pen

I suspected I was in for a treat when I saw a sneakily tucked away corner cafe hidden behind some oak trees, which added to its pleasant ethos of coffee vibes. My hopes dropped somewhat when I saw the price list but proceeded regardless. Golly gee I am glad I did. This is probably the second tastiest, fruitiest culinary experience I have experienced in New Zealand based purely on coffee. Complemented perfectly by the smooth jazz and fresh spring leaves of the climbing rata vine out front. My day was instantly better and then also somewhat worse because I know the peak of my day has already been. If only I could drink 15 coffees a day and not have a heart attack.

Today its our first time went here for our coffee and small bites. The coffee are delicious, I got mocha & my partner love his americano. We also trued their dessert & food, I choose basque cheese cake which is my fav and their cheese cake is yum even little bit too sweet for my taste. Their spinach something (not sure whats the name since my partner was the one who order it 😂) also delicious! The service also lovely & friendly! I really love the ambience there, its nice hidden coffee gems in the city.. Will def come back to explore more whats on their menu tho! 💖

DELICIOUS flat whites at coffee pen. The food is also very delicious and love that they always have different menus on each week, which makes it even more appealing. Located in a hidden spot which is great for a sunny day. Staff are super friendly and seem to have heaps of regular customers. Highly recommend this place!

Such a lovely hidden little cafe! Everytime is a different experience that doesn't disappoint. This time we had a prawn sando, perfectly cooked and surprisingly light for something deep fried. Their reuben is also deliciously done - and would be a solid challenger to the fed classic. We finished off with a wee Caneles de Bordeaux. Not too sweet, just perfect. ❤️

We stumbled onto this quaint little cafe when we were heading to another brunch spot. Such a fortunate change of events because this place is such a gem! The coffee is good but the lasagna is even better. It’s on the sweeter side but I love it. The seating is also on the outdoors. Fancy some refreshing breeze while enjoying your meal, this is the spot. My Sunday has been brightened. Thank you coffee pen.
