Bay Road - North End New Zealand

A very cute place to stop by for toast! Definitely worth the walk and the toast menu although small, is special-especially the savory one-I got the pesto and sundried tomato toast! The staff were super friendly and super happy to help! Love that it 's a local business, makes the conversation and their products super intimate and feels good when you buy something where you know where it directly feeds into! Anyway, onto the marvelous toast, I actually froth! The sourdough was from Gilbert 's, it was crunchy and crisp with the perfect chewy sourdough texture. The pesto and sundried tomato relish were made in house, topped with snow pea sprouts and it was delicious. Sweet yet salty, the perfect blend of sweet sour-y chutney like tomato relish with the salty pesto base was a true match made in heaven. Definitely a neat little snack or breakfast to grab on the go if you can get here early enough! They also do another 'special ' toast that is sweet with OCHO chocolate, which sounds like a dream! Would love to come back but since their hours are limited to weekdays, probably will have to save the trip for the holidays. Lovely place though, very small so can 't really sit comfortably but the toast break is worth it! 4.5/5

Although taste is subjective, Bay Rd makes objectively the best peanut butter in the country. This is their HQ, and what better way to show off their wares than by serving a variety of PB-on-toast dishes with solidly good espresso. There is a huge range, all staggeringly cost effective and delicious. Well worth the trip.

Loved the toast there! It makes for a great little breakfast and the filter coffee is a nice addition as well. Try the avocado- it’s surprisingly good!

Absolutely love this peanut butter! There have been times I've eaten one of the big jars (1.8kg of pure deliciousness) in a week. I also love that they have an active jar exchange! Good for my tummy, taste buds and the planet

One of the best coffee places I’ve been to in terms of quality. The peanut butter was also great and so fun to talk to the workers and owner!
