Cafe Crave.

Rating: 9.9 outta 10.
Where: Cafe Crave. 25 McDonald Street, Kingsland. Auckland.
Ordered: Cheese scones, long black, flat white. $13.50.

Matt and I popped in here this morning for a quick bite and a coffee. All the tables were taken inside (a good sign), so we braved the elements and opted for a table just outside the front door.

Braving the elements was worth it, the food and coffee arrived in short order ... and what a treat! The scones were light, cheesy perfection, baked fresh just this morning, served warm with the mandatory butter on the side.
Coffee was smooth and hit the spot!

As we were leaving other patrons were commenting also on the quality of the food and coffee, and making note that it was their new favourite place to be. I couldn't agree more.

To look in the door, the decor is in line with all that is Kingslandl, but perhaps not quite as edgy as other places... but this is more than compensated for by the warm cheery staff, quick service and delicious offerings.

This place is my new fave rave.
