Reviews
Here's what people are saying about us...
“Crave Cafe serves up quality coffee in an edgy industrial-style venue where the polished concrete floor and the rawness connects well with the concept of cravings. This charitable cafe is located on the outskirts of Kingsland (technically Morningside), and all of Crave’s profits go to fund local community and global poverty issues. Also . . . check out the awesome collection of espresso makers on the centre table! Beautiful food. As if you needed a reason for coffee…

“I love a good salad and these guys have four or five really good ones. The roasted bean salad has a kafir lime dressing and is perfect for a winter lunch. The scrambled eggs with salmon has a bit of cream cheese tossed in which is outstanding. They specialize on coffee as well (cuppings and all) and have the best hang out / work space (free wifi) I can find in this area (Kingsland / Mt Eden).

“Great cafe, the food and coffee has consistently been top notch! The protein shakes are also great. The decor is art deco mixed with modern, eclectic but it works! Service is excellent. Have been here for an after hours function also and was very impressed. Love your work keep it up!

“Ate there today what a find - perfect coffee and had the Full Crave brekkie. Eggs, mushrooms and bacon were to die for. Service was fast and friendly and the art was great. It had a real laid back atmosphere that i didn’t really want to disappear back to work. Great community initiative I am a local from Kingsland and will definitely be going back to supports.

“Had a function at Crave. The food was wonderful, and just kept coming for our 50 guests. Our chef Andy had great ideas and everything was delicious and plentiful. Fantastic friendly service from Jim, Letitia and Tim. Lovely venue and great coffees.

“excellent coffee – i drop in here whenever i can get a park and its usually mid afternoon. Lately the coffee has got even better with a new brand they switched to. Real coffee taste and I now understand what crave is all about. Would be a 5 star but only 1 staff person in off peak times who has to make coffee as well as serve customers so if you luck out and there are other customers in front of you it can take a while

“Ate at Crave today for the first time. The calamari was delicious and my banana smoothy was yum. I have been here for coffee lots and I usually eat out of the cabinet but now I am looking forward to trying the rest of the menu. Also great vibe everybody is smiling and laughing including the staff, it’s nice to feel welcome and not rushed in and out, go crave.
