December 16, 2019 Tynisha Seiler

Discover Restaurants offering the best Cafe food in Rarotonga, Southern Cook Islands, Cook Islands. Sipping coconut milk while bargaining for handmade jewelry and swaying your hips to live music—just another Saturday morning in Rarotonga. After a few hours of checking out the wharf-side Punanga Nui Market, hit the beaches of this reef-protected volcanic island. There are plenty of picturesque lagoons that allow peaceful swimming or snorkeling, and moonlit strolls along the East Side sands are pure magic. Raro Safari Tours are a popular way to explore the island’s vivid rainforest.

We had bacon and eggs and loved their bread. Their BLT's are yummy, coffees are excellent. In fact everything on their blackboard menu is exceptional.

So don’t go looking for pizzas at night as that is not an option. I had the lasagne at $20 but had to pay extra for salad. The boys all had steak and came out with mushroom sauce even though they ordered pepper so one had to be sent back as can’t have mushrooms, waitress was great as she didn’t take the order and fixed the problem.Hi there and thank you for your time.You came exactly in the first week of producing pizzas, when we had only one day of Pizza on tuesday, just to make people try. We advertised this fact literally everywhere. I apologize for the mistake of the pepper instead of mushroom, but I'm happy that the waitress fixed the problem as you said. I invite you to come again and give us the opportunity to earn a better review.

Stopped off here for a Happy Hour drink post Muri night markets. Service was slow, but this was due to the considerable numbers of patrons and the meticulous attention of the staff to ensure the cocktails were spot on correct - something lacking at other places. Location overlooking Muri beach and lagoon was outstanding - whilst no sunset, it was probally more welcomingWould return here anytime!

We had lunch here after checking out a few places in town which had very limited vegan options. Then we came along this gem.The food was fantastic, we ordered: vegan nachos, vege stack with tofu and vegan pumpkin and tofu curry.Food was well priced for a tourist area and tasted great. And it helped having multiple vege and vegan options!Definately worth checking out

We had breakfast here one morning. Cost the better part of 50+ dollars for two cooked meals and two coffees. Coffee was good and served promptly. Meals were large but as with other local places they'd run out of several ingredients. Firstly no prosciutto for my breakfast but replaced by bacon and then may wife was offered and accepted a bacon side order to be told when the meal arrived they'd run out of bacon. They offered a refund for the bacon.Expensive for what it was in my opinion.

The gardens have grown wel, lovely to walk around again, just wish we could grow some of the plants here in New Zealand. The famous lemon cheesecake was excellent again along with the lemon quencher drink. Cheesecake was a bit pricey at $21 but divine. Cafe in excellent surroundings.

So glad we gave this place a go!Friendly service from the owner, lovely view of the whales, fresh tasty food. Finding Nemo was a welcome lunch on our last day of the holiday. The mahi mahi was fresh tasty and the accompaniments complimented the fish. A shame that the only non undercover tables were smoking as the view from there and some warmth from the sun on the chilly day would have been spectacular. Friends who arrive at Raro next weekend will be advised not to miss this fabulous friendly eatery. Keep up the great work. Advise to book.
