Sparrow Cafe - Maungakiekie-Tamaki

Not your run of the mill cafe! Love the fresh food, coffee and staff!<br/

I work very close to this cafe and love the different choices of food particularly the awesome salads they have. Vegan choices are good too. The staff are lovely and friendly and always go out of their way to ask “are you having a great day?”. Coffee is strong and always hot! Would recommend!

It might be a bit of an unlikely Oasis surrounded by European car yards and offices but this has really become one of my favourite cafes. A great menu and kichen and all the counter food is made on site. You can tell the difference. Trad, Vegan, Vegetarian or Paleo, it's all there. The owner Angelina is one of those people it's nice to be around and her staff are lovely. Warm and comfortable in winter and cool and breezy in summer. Casual enough for friends and family. Stylish enough for clients. Coffee to die for. And licensed.<br/

Visited this cafe on the last day of school last year for breakfast. I bought an apple spice muffin and my friend got a sausage roll. The apple spice muffin had quite a strong apple flavour to it and the muffin texture was loose. As for the sausage roll, it had a hard crispy outer layer and the portion size was large.

Modern and cozy cafe along Great South Road. Quite expensive but a handy location if you're in that area. I ordered Chicken and Mushroom pie and Salmon Bagel....and they will toast for you which is good! Limited selection of sandwiches and slices but looking soo delish and gourmet! I like their Lemon slice, not too sweet and the taste and texture is how i like it!Staff is ok, nice and tidy cafe...If you're there in the strip of Maserati and BMW showroom why not pop in to try their sandwiches. It's worth visiting!!
