Located in the Mitre 10 Mega garden centre the cafe has a relaxed feel and is family friendly. Indoor and outdoor seating. Wide variety of fresh cabinet and menu options. Outstanding coffee, especially love the ice coffee. Have never had a bad experience with the food or coffee here.

Great coffee BUT the mushrooms were disgusting!!! They came out “ swimming in clear juice” and had very little if any flavour. Found the staff not exactly “ happy” in there jobs - NOT a good look for this business!!! 1 staff member in particular was dressed “ scruffy”!!! Come on guys, get yourselves sorted - this cafe could be so much better. VERY disappointed!!! Won’t be back!!!

My wife and I dined at Jessicas restaurant this week. Pleasantly surprised at the with the decor, they have done a good job and it has a pleasant feel to it. The waiter who greeted us and showed us to our table was polite, friendly and caring. Water arrived quickly and he told us of the specials.I had calamari for entree and it was superb. The menu caters for all types with a real solid Kiwi approach. Steak, chicken, lamb shank, fish and duck all on the menu.I chose the lamb shank and it came with mash potatoes, peas and gravy. Very nice, I enjoyed it.My wife chose the Duck which was over cooked and the skin not crispy. It came with Kumara rosti which was burnt and dry, could not be eaten she said.So good and bad experiences here. We will go back, it deserves to redeem itself.Hi Trevor, Thanks for your feedback, I have passed it to the chef. Looking forward to see you again.

Reviewed By Diannelorena

Stopped in before heading home after disappointing dinner elsewhere. Excellent service, my chocolate mousse cake was beautiful, one couple shared the affagato which was well received, another couple had the cheesecake which went down a treat, only let down was the sundae. Coffees were great. The main meals being sent out made me envious and wishing we had come here for mains.

Bazza's Steakhouse

Reviewed By TheGlobalKiwi4

It was our first time here and we were really impressed. I love that when we booked it asked if we had kids and the age, so when we went to be seated there was a colouring in page and colour pencils already there. The service was very friendly and professional and I couldn’t fault any of the staff. I particularly liked overhearing one waitress say to the other that they should both keep an eye on the salad bar and make sure it’s all clean and tidy and presentable (I’m sure it can get messy with people serving themselves!). It was clean and well-stocked the whole time we were there. Meals came out on time and the steaks were beautiful, also really liked the pieces of fried onion on top. Happy to give 5 stars :-)

There is an abundance of Cafe/Restauarnt/Eateries in Pukekohe, but this is UNRESERVEDLY one of the best. Excellent Coffee, good range of very scrummy and competiively price cabinet foods, togteher with an excellent "Cooked to order" Menu.Not difficult to find and well worth seeking out.
