Got the baileys cheesecake from Frasers and it was uneatable there was no taste of baileys what so ever and the whole thing tasted of nothing. I love Mt Eden village but will not be going back there again for something sweet as its the second time we have had something that was uneatable.

Lovely cafe open from early morning till late. The service is very good. The breakfast we had was excellent and I also love their cheesecakes! We took family there from the US and they loved the MT Eden village feeling. Warm in winter and nice tables outside when it is warmer. Highly recommended.

Had the potato cake with avocado, bacon and some blue cheest source. Although the presentation was really nice, unfortunately the food was rather bland. Coffee was meh too.
Having said that, the service was impeccable! :) I think they prolly just need to upgrade their hot meals section.

Also tried their cheesecake and banoffie pie – it was meh. Not disappointing, just nothing great.

Had the Eggs Bene with Smoked Salmon and it wasn’t worth it at $19.90. The Hollandaise was sparse and it was packeted salmon of which at that price I’d expect it to be home cured. It wasnt as if there was an over abundance of it either. The baps it sat on we’re lovely though and the staff were too. Except for the female barista who looked sour. Still, she wasn’t serving people thankfully. Coffee was nice enough and the cakes looked lush. Something tells me though that the place will not want for clients with good enough coffee and that corner location.

Returned to Frasers after a few years away. The atmosphere was great and the food ok, unfortunately overshadowed by grumpy staff who found it too hard to be pleasant and courteous to a customer.

This place is always full of people and it opens till 11pm at night which seems to be great for meeting friends, but having finally tried it for the first time last week, I found that the food is pretty average and in fact a bit overpriced.

Its location however is quite good for those in the Eden/Epsom area. There are plenty of free parking around and it’s right next to the bus stop.

Excellent sweets selection from the cabinet although the food can be very average to well below at times.


The service is good and the coffee ok.

Looks like the owners are only interested in raking in the money as the place is very run down and maybe train the chefs to make consistent food.

After a long night at work and the craving of caffeine started kicking in, I happen to find a small busy Cafe in Mt Eden village still open late at night. I was very impressed with the service, food and coffee. The staff were very friendly, the coffee was perfect and the new York baked cheesecake was to die for. Will defiantly be back again.

May be great for coffee and cake but dinner was a disappointment.

No self-respecting food establishment puts on a dinner menu these days without a bar licence.

Had a fairly decent pork belly and kumara salad, but a glass of pinot gris would have made it so much better.
Will not dine again for dinner.

Frasers has been one of my faves for some time now, however after having the worst, most bland iced chocolate of my life ($6.20), a floury apricot slice ($6.30) and a small bottle of coke that cost a ridiculous $4.50, there’s no way I’m ever wasting my money there again.

It seems to have gone down hill significantly – don’t waste your time or money.

Love this place. Good coffee and delicious cabinet food…. their cake is always so yummy. Scores better than that other themed place across the street. The Eggs Benny does need a bit of work though. And also would it kill the staff to smile?

Very disappointing.
This cafe used to be quite a nice social place. And as far as meals were concerned, their Eggs Benedict were quite a charm.

I took my American guest there to show off our Eggs Benedict, only to get ripped off because it was Waitangi Day – after the public holiday charge, the 2 meals came to well over $40.
The service was very average. And I had to ask why the meal cost so much that day. The meals took a little longer than expected, and while it had every ingredient listed on the menu, that was all there was.
The Eggs Benedict had 2 poached eggs, Hollandaise sauce on some kind of dry bread, and bacon. It didn’t have any other pesto or paste like how they used to.
It was really dry, yolky, and quite frankly, a bit sickening.

It is very unfortunate about their disappointing quality of food and service. And we are never to return to Frasers again.

The overpriced and predictable menu drags this well established cafe down. Although coffee and food is fine, it’s too typical to warrant an outstanding rating. Service is always friendly and the place has a good atmosphere.

This is the best cafe in Auckland. Hands down, great food, good coffee and fantastic service. I’ve been there like a million times. The brulee is just delish.
