Have constantly driven past Cafe Bagel and always have meant to try it out. Gutted now I haven't been earlier. Went with my son. He had the Americana while I had the Cheese Burgel. Both were great. Really tasty and fresh with a good amount of ingredients. Son now wants to work his way through the rest of the menu. As do I. Service was good and nice and clean. Great outdoor area. A shame they close at 3pm because I reckon it would be a great place for after work drinks.

My daughter raved about the bagels so we went to check it out. It was lovely tasty and looked delicious. The place was kid friendly, small playground and great sunny positions. Court yard with seating.

I have been here a couple of times now. Really enjoy the vibe and food here. The lattes are brewed perfectly and bagels are delicious. Staff are friendly and food is served within 15 mins of ordering. Outdoor area is great place to chill on a sunny morning for breakfast.

The place doesn’t disappoint every time. The best sweet (and affordable) option and coffee for GF person in town. My children love it too, and it’s hard to keep them happy with the food.

Great staff. Food was delicious each time I've gone. I look forward to trying new things on their menu each time I visit. Highly recommend going here and trying it out.

My friend and I came here for lunch this week and we were really impressed. The food was good and really affordable! The menu has some fun options on it that I haven’t seen in Pukekohe before. The service was great and the atmosphere in there is nice. We got one savoury bagel and one sweet bagel. Because of the way they are served we were able to share both easily. We also got fries for a 4 year old that was with us and she liked them. The coffee was also good. I don’t understand the 2 average reviews I already see for this place. I don’t normally leave reviews for local cafes but decided to write this because the other 2 reviews don’t really seem to fit my experience. Definitely recommend a visit!
