Rad Cafe - Auckland

Delish little spot in the village. (Key word little, do don’t come at peek if you want a seat) yummy food and yum coffee

Came in after multiple raving reviews from my mates about the coffee, unlike their size or wealth this time they were not over exaggerating. This place is seriously good. Nice atmosphere, comfy tables and great music/vibe. As a barista in a specialty coffee roasters, coffees that really blow me away have become few and far between. Merely the aroma coming off the single origin long black was enough for me to know I was in for something pretty special. Both the short and long blacks were well extracted, and managed to bring out the fruity notes in what I assume was a guji. The almond croissant I had was exactly what I needed, light and crispy and a perfect addition to the coffee. The coffee and food alone would be enough to earn a 5 star review, but I would honestly give another 5 stars for the service. Shout out to the two girls working that told me I look like Troye Sivan. They somehow broke every by the book rule of hospitality but the experience was made like 100 times better, like this wasn't by no means a bad experience to start off with. Never before has a waitress talked to me across the cafe or come and sat and chatted to us because she's bored. I not only left the cafe satisfied by the food and coffee but I also felt like I gained two new friends. Pretty rad place if you ask me. 10 stars.

It’s really a little of hidden gem, like every part of the cafe, the environment the food the staffs, i ordered a beef vermicelli and a flat white, was really good, definitely coming back again.

Not usually one to order eggs bene as they are pretty standard but Rads version was different and delicious. Great little cafe with friendly staff. Can’t wait to come back and try a few other meals off the menu.

Best breakfast I have had in ages Keto Hubby enjoyed the Freedom Rangers swapped the potato for bacon hock my Super Duper Smoked Kahawai Hash was divine definitely a come again
