Visited at around 10 on Sunday morning, there wasnā€™t so many people when we got there. The service was really fast and they were very kind and friendly as well. We ordered the pancake and the mince on toast. The pancake was definitely a 10/10, itā€™s just a fluffy as we expected and it was delicious. The mince on toast was actually a pretty big portion and has a good flavour, however it was a bit salty. Would definitely come back again to try out other stuff and get the pancake again!!!

Iā€™ve been wanting to visit major sprout for the longest time and I finally got a chance to do so! šŸ’ž We ordered the ā€˜Buttermilk pancakesā€™ šŸ„ž which were very indulgent (perfect for those with a sweet tooth)! It was covered in a butterscotch custard and surrounded by fresh fruit šŸ‡šŸŽšŸŠšŸ, fairy floss, walnuts and cream! We also ordered the ā€˜Green Eggs Benedictā€™ šŸ„ššŸ³ this classic came on top of a potato rosti šŸ„” with your choice of bacon šŸ„“ , salmon or mushrooms šŸ„! Finally, we also tried the ā€˜Butternut tortelliniā€™ from their new menu, this was served with red chilli cream, hazelnuts, semi-dried tomatoes šŸ… and a parmesan crisp šŸ§€šŸ˜! I can see why it was rated so highly, I would definitely recommend coming here for brunch! Iā€™m looking forward to coming back to try their ā€˜Banana Bread French Toastā€™ šŸ§”šŸ’›

So Iā€™ve been here a few times now for coffee and brunch. The interior is modern yet inviting and the staff are welcoming. Coffee can be hit and miss sometimes however the food generally looks good and tastes good. Overall quality of the experience here is pretty good and the location is central with lots of parking so itā€™s in line with the norm price wise.

Really enjoyed my coconut rice bowl when I came in last! Was a little sweet for my taste, absolutely decadent though and quite filling. The poached pear and rhubarb added a necessary tartness and the crumble provided a lovely crunch to break up the texture. A well thought out and presented meal and worth the price.

I rate a creamy mushroom but who ever thought this is a breakfast dish clearly intended on you going back to sleep right after eating it. Nevertheless this was amazing and a great start to the morning. Coffee was on point too!

Excited to brunch here since Iā€™ve had this saved in my bookmarks for a while.

Ordered green tea noodles and buttermilk pancakes. Both dishes are presented beautifully, and each dish well crafted and flavours worked so well together!

Food here is instagram worthy and every bit delicious!

Highly recommend and will be back for more, great spot!
Staff are attentive and food came out relatively quickly.

Lovely decor, food and service. Heard a lot about this place and stoked to finally try it. We had a couple of items- the creamy mushrooms with a side of bacon and a poached egg, this was a beautiful, rich dish with 3 kinds of mushrooms and pecorino cheese on top. its not your usual creamy mushrooms. We also had the chicken bites, which was well fried, not too oily and with a lovely flavour. the smoothies were great too. Nice weekend brunch place and good parking spots too.

Itā€™s almost deserted around the cafe at Sunday brunch time. Tuck away in a back street in the midst of office buildings. It was a clean and bright space inside. The menu had some good twists to the classic & some that you would not have expected from a cafe. I got the okonomiyaki with a slab of bacon. It was really more of a fritter and had more flour and denser then ones I had before in Japan. The bacon was literally a slab (two slabs). Found the whole thing rather odd. I did enjoy the coffee though, and maybe iā€™ll try something different if I come back again.

I came here with a friend and it was a first for both of us. We ordered two of the most popular dishes the buttermilk pancakes and acai bowl. Both of the dishes were presented well and looked really appetising. The buttermilk pancakes were quiet dense and not as fluffy as what weā€™d preferred however, the ice cream and nuts surrounding the pancakes were yummy which made them the highlight of the dish for us. The acai bowl was delicious! although the consistency was a little runny. Overall I would come back but would definitely try something new.

On the bucket list for a long time, I finally made it to Major Sprout. If you can get past the painful experience of finding a car park, youā€™ll be chuffed with the menu. Lots of great sweet, savoury, vego and meat options. We got the broken eggs with greens and the butternut, capsicum and cream cheese omelette. The omelette was a little under but both dishes had herds of flavour. The turmeric latte and coffee were great, and the service was efficient and friendly. Yum, keep it up šŸ‘šŸ¼

Awesome brunch spot in the city! Highly recommend
Great for both the mates catch ups and business meetings.
The food is beautiful to look at, but tastes it also! Their charcoal bowl is also delish! But word to the wise, not great choice for a date.... it gets all over your mouth and teeth. Lol
Their coffee is really awesome too, oh- and the takeaway treats!

Decent cafe. Gets a little noisy in there. Food wise probably on the pricey side. Six dumplings for $19. It was nice but that was all. The kale salad, is a salad. I donā€™t really get kale personally. Green frizzy cardboard. Each to their own I guess. Maybe I just didnā€™t pick the right dishes.

Busy especially during weekends. Service can be slow sometimes but it is still very friendly and excellent.
Recently I've tried their creamy mushroom, acai bowl and eggs on sourdough but my all time faves is still the buttermilk pancake (sweettooth and easy to eat).
The acai bowl is delicious and very insta worthy.
Creamy mushroom is tasty, has a hint of bulgogi sauce to it, but the bread was really hard to cut into making it hard to eat. We ordered coffee but it ended up coming out after we finished out food as we had to remind the staff, but that was fine.
Same with the eggs on sourdough, the bread is thick and soft in the inside but the outside part is very hard to cut.
Their green eggs benedict is great as well and I love that they have the half size option too.
Smoothies are nice too but too filling to eat with food.
Their slices in the cabinet are also decent.

Had my birthday brunch here and wasnā€™t too impressed or disappointed in anything here. The service was about a 8/10 in my eyes as the staff was very friendly and quite attentive but not 100%. The cafe is quite large and fits a lot of people in so you donā€™t feel to crowded. As we went as a group of 4, 2 of us got the pancakes and the other 2 got aƧai bowls. I personally thought the pancakes didnā€™t have much of a ā€œ Wow ā€œ factor in them, they tasted quite like ordinary pancakes and didnā€™t look THAT amazing but did look photo worthy x. From my point of view the aƧai bowls my friends had were quite running and i reckon shouldā€™ve been a bit thicker. Overall quite happy with this place but youā€™ll say if i was to be back here iā€™d order something else x

Amazing staff and ambiance. Beautiful place with lovely decor and surroundings. Super easy to get to and close to public transport. Delicious food and a very wide range of options. Ordered the pancakes which were deliciously sweet. The matcha latte was very disappointing and not sweet at all. Would not order again but would definitely go back.

Really good atmosphere! Often quite busy but food is delicious so itā€™s understandable why!

Had their herbed scramble with salmon which was really nice, however felt the price for adding salmon was way to high for the small portion size. My friend got the green eggs benny and it had good reviews also.

Staff were not that friendly on this occasion but maybe just came on an off day.

Will definitely be cack though because the food is worth it!

Such a cute place! The large windows definitely bring in alot of light and makes the whole atmosphere nice and airy. Its quite the busy place yet the service is just as good.

For food I ordered the famous ā€œButtermilk pancakesā€ with an addition of ice cream and my friend had the ā€œUnwrapped souvlakiā€. The pancakes were abit tough which was a let down and the dish was overly sweet and by adding maple made it even more. It was pretty to look at though haha. The Souvlaki on the other hand was so good, mostly the agria chips! For drinks we had Iced choc | Iced mocha, both pleasant.

Ps. They have a qr code that makes you see what the dishes look like which is damn smart and helpful. Would go back again.

Given Major Sprout is one of Aucklandā€™s most hyped-cafes and is now on Zomato Gold, we thought it was time to give it a go. The interior is beautifully light and airy and the menu is full of delectable choices. This time we went for the green eggs benny, the aƧai bowl and the buttermilk pancakes. ā£
ā£
The eggs benny was probably my fave dish, partly because of itā€™s ode to Dr Seuss but also because it was super zesty and came on a potato rƶsti which Iā€™m all about 8/10. ā£
ā£
The hot cakes were pretty to the eye, all decked out with marshmallows, candy floss, and delicious almond mascarpone. To the taste they were fluffy but a tad dry, and really needed the extra maple syrup which we had to pinch for ourselves to add some moisture 7.5/10.ā£
ā£
The aƧai bowl was gorgeously presented and absolutely covered in fresh fruit, nut crunch, and coconut, but the smoothie itself was far too runny, which let the whole thing down 7/10.ā£
ā£
Overall Major Sprout does have a very cool vibe and some good menu options but I wouldnā€™t say the food is particularly outstanding or memorable.

Major Sprout is damn cute man! Came here with my friend for the first time and we had been wanting to go for ages. I got the Coconut Mango bowl which costs $16 and it was so good and the smoothie bowl had very different fruit on it which I liked because it's usually just banana and apple so I liked there creativity. My friend got the Acai Bowl which also costs $16, we actually ended up paying $11 each because of the student discount which we were both very impressed by. The bowls were perfect for a photo and looked very appealing and super cute. The staff were so bubbly and chatty and the all round vibes in the cafe were 10/10. Can't wait to come back here! Recently came back here with 3 mates for a birthday brunch and my friend and I ordered the Acai Bowl which is good good but kinda too runny but she good it's okay!!! and the other 2 girls got the Pancakes which they found average but enjoyed. Sadly we didn't get the student discount this time :(( But overall experience was pretty fine sis. x

Ordered the eggs on toast, steak sandwich and smashed eggs. Unfortunately the bread used for the sandwich had a really hard and thick crust which was hard to cut into leave alone eat so I just left it. The onion chutney and steak were amazing came with fries and aoili which again was great. The smashed eggs came on 1 piece of bread which seemed to be very little for the price tag of $18!!! The eggs on toast had a reasonable price of $11

Major Sprout has attentive and wonderful customer service. Ordered the Beef Cheek Croquette and the Major Salad. The Beef Cheek Croquette was so crispy and crunchy, however I found the beef cheek quite bland. If it was marinated or had seasoning then it would've tasted better. The poached eggs were cooked so well, the yolk was runny! My friend who ordered the Major Salad was also satisfied with her meal. This was my second visit to this cafe, and I have not been left disappointed.

I was worried about going to this cafe because I heard few bad reviews about this place. But I have been here before so I thought Iā€™d give it a go.

Ordered steak sandwich and snapper for lunch. My friend said she didnā€™t get onion tempura when she ordered steak sandwich but mine looked alright.

Food tasted great and also coffee was good too.
However little bit slow service.

Overall happy with the experience.

Tried their hot chocolate, okonomiyaki with salmon and wild mushroom fettuccine. The hot chocolate was a little smaller than expected though the flavour was good. The okonomiyaki was very filling with lots of ingredients. The fettuccine has an unique flavour which in my opinion does not go well with everyone (my toddler didn't like it at all). The cafe was really busy at the time, had to wait for a seat.

Proud to review this amazing Cafe in Auckland CBD as my 300th review!

This cafe was really trendy with the new well being hype. Menu was filled with healthy options and even smoothies looked very healthy too.
As a Cafe owner, I hate how a lot of the cafes these days just concentrate on presentation of their dish and donā€™t much of consider other factors such as taste, balance and even nutrition.
Major sprout seemed like they had a lot of thought coming up with their unique menu and I have learnt a lot from them.
Charcoal coating on fish burger was amazing, salad was packed with different taste and texture it was really really well balanced.

I would totally visit Major Sprout everyday and try all their menu if they had parking spaces >.>

Would really recommend this brunch place if youā€™re willing to walk a bit for it.
I ordered the Crunchy Gentleman, which is two very soft, amazing toast with ham, eggs and some sweet onion relish and hummus. They have the perfect taste balance.
I also had the Buttermilk Pancakes, theyā€™re very thick and surprisingly doesnā€™t make you feel sick even if you eat the whole plate. It also look very pretty.
The ice mocha is also very nice, not watered down, not too sweet and not too bitter. Great for the sunny day.
Staffs are great and friendly, they keep topping up our water frequently and paid close attention to the customers

As a returning customer, I felt the portion of food was less than before I used zomato gold. A little upset with this..
The presentation of the food was pleasing. Their coffee is highly recommended. The salmon tasted fresh. The avocados were smooth (lots of avo which I love) The snapper burger was soft and tasted okay. It didnā€™t feel fresh and the batter tasted a little runny.

Atmosphere is stunning, food presentation is perfect! Service is okay but had to wait for quite a while for the food. The snapper was absolutely amazing, fish was so well cooked and the purĆ©e was very tasty. Pancake is very presentable but a bit too sickly sweet, and is very pricey if you add both ice cream and the pancetta ($28 for pancake is a bit outrageous, shouldnā€™t these ingredients usually come with it already?) Would be back to get the snapper and again and try more savoury dishes!

We had buttermilk pancakes and open souvlaki

Pros šŸ‘
* Food well priced
* Nice atmosphere - very bright
* Food was plated very nicely
* Souvlaki had nice balance of flavours and delicious lamb

Cons šŸ‘Ž
* Pancakes both worse than expected and worse than how they looked, overly sweet with not much other flavour

Lovely environment with a quite atmosphere, a good variety of food and beverages. Reasonably priced for the quality youā€™re receiving. Highly recommend their mango bowl, acai bowl and smoothies. The bowls are fruitful and had just the right amount of sweetness. The snapper burger was delicious, but the panfried snapper was slightly over cooked. Their sweet food are definitely better than the savory. The savory food are a bit dull in flavors.

Would definitely revisit for their sweet dishes.

Had a welcome back lunch at Major Sprout with my colleagues earlier in the week. I had major food envy with their food!
šŸŸPanfried crispy skin Snapper with cauliflower puree, herbed lentils, smoked kahawai croquette, harissa oil
šŸŒÆUnwrapped souvlaki with pulled braised lamb, dukkah egg scramble, pita bread, mint tzatziki, pickled onion and almond hummus.
šŸ„ŖšŸŸ steak with onion tempura, sourdough horseradish, Parmesan and agria chips.
My fav was the fish as the skin was truly crispy and the flavours were bright and fresh. Did not realise there were scramble eggs in the souvlaki and that was creamy and delish. They can get quite busy at lunch, so get yourselves there nice and early before 12pm is my advice.

Came to Major Sprout for a Sunday brunch.
They have a small outside area which makes it dog friendly. Our main waitress was friendly and welcoming.
* Green tea noodle salad is YUM ! The dish is relatively light but definitely packs in the flavour.

* Steak sandwich is definitely a meal for the blokes. Deep fried onion rings and a lot of melted cheese on top of the Med- rare steak.

* Blueberry and basil smoothie was top notch and refreshing. Swapped out apple juice for pineapple juice. The sweetness of basil was the gold star.

Apart for the delay in food, overall was an awesome food experience.

I remember first going to Major Sprout when it opened up and loving everything about it, decor was fresh, food was brilliant, coffee was delicious, and the staff were super nice. Not much has changed about how I feel about this place today.

They are still offering up some of the best Korean fusion cafe dining food you can find in Auckland, this is pretty much where it started.

From the Okonomiyaki to the more traditional Major Sprout styled big breakfast, everything is super full of flavour, and it's very pleasant to sit inside and have a meal because the decor is just as enjoyable as their food.

While this is an oldie, it's definitely a goodie.

Decided to do Sunday breakfast in the city for a change which was great. Auckland weather was smiling on us and we had a great drive in and out of the city.

Cafe had more people then I expected for 08:30 but we were seated easily by our very charismatic host. He was definitely a big part of the great morning breakfast.

I started with a Mocha Maca Superfood smoothie which was AWESOME! Others at the table all had coffees which went down a treat. There was also a cold pressed juice (apple, pineapple, mint and cucumber) think mojito without the alcohol. It was super refreshing and highly recommended.

Mixture of food at the table, highlight the KFC (Korean fried chicken) yes we had it for breakfast and it was awesome!

We will happily return in the future. Add this one to the list to try you will be satisfied!

Lovely staff, welcoming atmosphere and scrumptious yet satisfying food. My friends and I came from Melbourne to Auckland for a holiday and Major Sprout has honestly been the best brunch experience we've had. The okonomiyaki was large in portion and was a bang for your buck. The different textures in the japanese pancake made it less sickening considering the large size, and the smoky bonito flakes paired well with the sauce. My only peeve was the lack of freshness in the dish to cut through the oiliness but that's just a personal preference.
The waiter who served us our dishes and tended the counter was approachable and had superb customer service. We left with our cravings satisfied and a experience that we could say was better than the majority of the Melbourne food scene.

The presentation of the dishes were beautiful and the breakfast was very tasty! The peanut buttercup smoothie was amazing but just slightly a bit too rich for us. I had a coconut chai tea by storm and India, and it tasted great with my meal. Next time we will try those more Asian influenced dishes as they sound interestingly good.

Busy cafe on Graham Street that is proven to be a favourite for work breakfast and lunches during a week and a brunch hotspot over the weekend. I love the clean and simple interior design as well as the relaxing vibes here. Favourite dishes would have to be the Acai bowl and their green spinach eggs benny! Ordered eggs on toast with added spinaches this morning for a change and it was equally delicious! They also do a variety of cabinet treats that are raw and vegan friendly- strongly recommend the raw snickers bar

Iā€™ve been to Major Sprout a couple of times now. Had the aƧai bowl today which was beautifully presented (as all their dishes looked to be). The nut crunch and variety of fresh fruit was really good, I would say the consistency of the aƧai itself was a little on the liquidy side though and not really much of it. I tried my friendā€™s green smoothie, tasted healthy - nice but not too sweet, however lots of little lumps of mango in it. Last time I came I had the summer salad with salmon - really good and definitely recommend it for a fresh, tasty, healthy option. There are lots of different and interesting sounding dishes on the menu compared to your usual standard cafe fare. Look forward to trying more out!

Itā€™s been a few years since I was at Major Sprout but the decor hasnā€™t aged. The autumn salad was a delicious post workout meal - the right mix of tangy and sweet with the most delicious poached lemon. The coffee was excellent. My boyfriend had a peanut butter cup smoothie and the salmon taco. He said it was all tasty but the taco was a little too crunchy causing the filling to ooze out which made it tricky to eat. It is a noisy cafe, which I remember from last time, but overall, would happily go back

The smoothies are delicious! Even the ā€œsprouting green,ā€ which sounded heavily healthy was a delight.

Wanted to visit Major Sprout after seeing pics of the famous AƧai bowl. The ambience is nice with a simple and minimalist theme. Definitely a place for brunch dates and nice Instagram photos. The fruits were absolutely fresh and delicious, however it wouldā€™ve been better with more granola. Surprisingly both aƧai bowl and summer fruits were very filling! Certainly great for breakfast/brunch. I would give service a 3/5. One particular waitress came off quite rude and snobby. Took about 20 minutes for someone to take our order.

Visiting some work colleagues at NZME, Iā€™ve had my eyes on Major Sprout for a while now and was stoked to finally be dining in at this Korean-fusion establishment. Entering Major Sprout you immediately notice how clean and green the area was, it's relaxing but slightly corporately.Ā 

I was feeling particularly hungry so rather be capricious while going through the menu, I asked the waiter for the most filling meal while my buddy had the green eggs benedict. As many of my reviewers would know, I am especially fond of meals that are aesthetically pleasing.Ā 

So full credit to the team at Major Sprout for there fastidious plating and cooking of their food. My meal took a monstrous effort for me to finish and I enjoyed every bite that I had. The pork belly had a crunchy cracking and soft, succulent pork meat which went surprisingly well with egg yolk and toasts.The hash was was another flavor due to crunchy but soft texture inside, overall just a great meal and one I would highly recommend. A surprising delight was the baked beans, the sauce was flavorsome and a little sweet which went down great with the pork.Ā 

My colleague was intrigued by the green hollandaise sauce but still thoroughly enjoyed his meal, he did really enjoy his spirulina. Just a fantastic brunch venue in the CBD, for all those working near the area this is one brunch place you donā€™t want to miss!

Showstopper: Pretty much the complete package here, great food, superb service, clean and cheerful layout and doing brunch with a twist.

Tucked away off Victoria St in the City, Major Sprout has a reasonably sized location which is light & bright with indoor/outdoor seating.
They have table service which is friendly & efficient.
Ordered the buttermilk pancakes with pancetta which was well balanced & not too sweet which they serve with Noble maple syrup.
Coffee was well made too.
A person at the table next door ordered the big breakfast which looked amazing - bacon & pork belly included!

Came here on a Tuesday for lunch with a friend. The interior is very spacious and lively with friendly staffs. Between us we got the sous vide chicken, green tea noodle salad, and very berry as drink.

The chicken dish was very distinct in flavor and is probably one of the nicely cooked cafe chicken dishes Iā€™ve had. The chicken wasnā€™t dry and hard and was tender and moist. The hummus contained a sour flavor which lifted the chickenā€™s taste up, but perhaps a bit too much because the other ingredients were a bit sour too. In terms of the portion, it was a bit too little for its price.

The green tea noodle salad with cured salmon tasted a lot better and is a perfect dish for the hot summer. Itā€™s a cold dish with sweet chewy green tea flavored noodles as the texture is just right. The ginger and salmon adds the extra touch of flavor and a little creaminess into the noodles.

The very berry drink was surprising as well as I didnā€™t expect theyā€™d use dried berries, but it was a good choice of topping. Itā€™s exactly what youā€™d expect a good berry smoothie would taste like with a little towards the mixture of strawberry and apple flavor.

We came here for brunch on the weekend, ordered their green eggs benedict, buttermilk pancakes, omelettes and fish and chips. Their food are indeed insta-worthy, was satisfied with their eggs benedict. It did taste healthy (spinach) but the bacon and potato rosti balances it out. My friend liked her pancakes but just a little tad too sweet for her. Omelette was awesome and fish and chips came with generous portions. The only thing that we can point out is the fries get soggy really quick. Waitress recommend the creamy mushroom and sait it was her fav dish, so I might try it next time.

The first time we had lunch at Major Sprout we were impressed by their foods and drinks (see photos taken earlier). When our friends from overseas came to NZ, they also chose Major Sprout out of the list of restaurants we recommended. We were glad they made the right choice. The second time we visited, their foods were still pretty delicious but we felt that both the presentation and quality had declined: the chunky kumara skins became thinly sliced chips with little "skin", bread was burnt, and the sauce of the creamy mushroom was not creamy at all but dark, sticky and looked unappetizing. Overall the servers were very nice and helpful, and we had a pleasant time catching up with friends there.

We ordered two eggs benedict with salmon and one broken eggs with broccolini. The taste didn't blow my mind but it was still good cafe food.
When the plates came to the table they looked beautiful and all the green makes it look very healthy.
The runny eggs were lovely and everything blended together nicely.
My friends said their eggs benedict was a bit bland and not as good as other places.
The prices are around the same as other cafes with the broken eggs being $17.
The service was good and the food came out pretty fast which is always a bonus when you are hungry. It wasn't too busy when we went so we got a table straight away. We did go pretty early, at around 11:30am.
Overall I would recommend giving this place a try.

Heard a little too many good things about this cafe so my friends and I decided to try it out ourselves. Keeping in mind we had a lot of expectations and we weren't disappointed! The place itself was very contemporary themed full of plants and great lighting for photos which was a plus point!

I ordered the green eggs benedict with salmon and it was my first time trying eggs benedict and it was VERY filling. I overestimated my appetite so didn't end up finishing the entire thing mainly because I decided I'm not a big fan of semi cooked eggs but everything else on the plate was delicious and presentation was very VERY impressive!

My friend ordered a beetroot latte which was something she was sceptical about since it was a very different and bold choice yet surprisingly she enjoyed it. I had a bite of the pancakes with candy floss and potato rosti which was out of this world! It was very fluffy and there were so many elements on the plate. I had a little moment of regret not getting the pancakes but nonetheless it was a good meal and definitely won't be the last time eating at this place! The chai latte I ordered was the just way I like it and overall I can say it was well worth the visit!

Came here on Tuesday midday. This is a hidden gem. The interiors is intricately decorated with wooden furniture, plants hanging from the ceiling.
We got the Sous Vide Chicken, Buttermilk Pancakes, Steak Burgers and a hazelnut baby cake.
The presentation to begin with was beautiful, definitely gram-worthy. The chicken was tender and the textures of the couscous and cauliflower and purƩe complimented each other really well. I devoured it within minutes. Lacked a bit of seasoning but thankfully there was salt and pepper on every table.
The pancakes and burgers looked amazing as well.
The hazelnut cake was a leftover from a few days ago--stale, dry and the hazelnuts at the top were already off-tasting. Mildly bitter.

The service was a bit iffy; I was waiting at the counter to get a cabinet cake and was pretty much ignored for a solid 2 minutes...even though the owner was right there and pretended to not have seen me.

Overall it was decent but certain details were kind of disappointing.

A great place to go when you're craving brunch!
We ordered salmon eggs benedict with kale and big breakfast, after waiting nearly 25 mins our order end up being served with bacon instead of salmon on eggs benedict. Staff change it straight away no fuzz and give us a complimentary coffee for their mistakes such unexpected gesture for them to make! Their lemon cheesecake is definitely yum not overpowering with citrus but still with a tanginess of flavour āœ… I would recommend this to anyone who wants a nice brunch. It can be busy on weekend and the decor is a mix of rustic and modern minimalist.

Love this place! Great service and food are delicious! The only thing is food is a bit slow but it is nice if you just want to have a chill day with friends and family.

i went there twice on Sundays, free parking on street parking on Sundays. Both time i have waited a bit for a table. Food are amazing, we ordered buttermilk pancake, omelette, steak sandwich and fried chicken for our two visits. We all enjoyed our food, the only thing i have noticed is the fried chicken we have ordered from second visit looks a bit different from the previous one (as you can see from the pictures). love the dark version of the fried chicken tho.

overall I really enjoy the food, environment and most importantly the Service! Well done team šŸ˜Š

What a great selections on menu and the food on the table just looks like a piece of art. You can tell the ingredients are fresh and most of the combination are very good for you health. Another proof is half of the restaurant are full with people from the gym. To a meat lover like me, the taste has something missing. It's also a bit pricey and very very busy at the weekend.

Every time I have visited major sprout they are always so busy and packed! This hidden gem sprouts great aesthetic interior design and is always bright and lively. We ordered a Mocha macca smoothie, mushroom fettuccine, and eggs, bacon, avocado on toast. Everything was delicious, bacon was nice and thick, pasta was freshly made, presentation was great and staff were friendly. There was a bit of a wait for the food, however that's probably because that are so busy! Would recommend this place for a nice Sunday brunch!

Trendy cafe tucked away in a back street that has some serious street cred as its always buzzing and packed. I had cured salmon with smashed avo on toast with a berry smoothie, both pleasant but nothing you wouldn't find at any upmarket Auckland cafe. Probably not the place to come to in a big group because it does get pretty full and noisy at peak brunch hour but it's a bright and welcoming space with lots of luscious plants and flowers around the place.

Love coming here for breakfast! The acai bowl is so good, and service is very friendly, just one thing that I thought could be improved was with the clearing of the plates - I hadn't finished eating while the other 3 people I was with had, and the waitress took their plates away while I was still eating. Just minor but could be improved because it makes a difference :)

Major Sprout always serves up a good brunch! I'm a slave to rituals and always find myself ordering the buttermilk pancakes with pancetta - for good reason! Taking on the classic cafe choice, and mixing it up. It's served with all sorts of weird components that actually work. Marshmellows, pancetta, candy floss, mascarpone, hazelnut muesli & maple syrup. And every time it does not fail me. The atmosphere is great as is the service; the only downfall being it's super busy on Sundays and goodluck finding a car park near!

If you are looking for the perfect inner city breakfastĀ spot, then Major Sprout may just be the best choice. It ticks all the boxes ā€“ delicious food, great coffee andĀ efficient service. Major Sprout is owned by David Lee, who also runs the popular eateries Dear Jervois in Herne Bay and Little King in Milford. I admit, Major Sprout opened in November 2015ā€¦ so I am a bit lateĀ to the party. But it was definitely worth the wait, especially for their famous and Insta-worthy buttermilk pancakes.

Have visited Major Sprout several times, first experience was not great - we were seated right at the back with a horrible view of fat/oil dripping out of the vent down the window right next to our table. (Not sure if it's still there but just avoid getting a table in the back) Seated so far back, we had to wave down the waiter several times to get service, water, forgotten coffees, food order etc. BUT the food and coffee was so worth the wait in the end, the bad experience was all forgotten. Since then, we've come back several times and service has improved. The ginger latte is delish and a must try if you like ginger. Great selection of food.

The omelette itself was nice but has some sweet relish also I was t expecting and too Much olive oil poured over it. The eggs with broccoli and seeded loaf were good though. I also had a coffee which was good but a little small . overall cool but a tad pricey though with nice atmosphere and interesting well presented food we still want to try since its close to our apartment

I think I am seriously sad ā€” I have returned to Major Sprout 3x now and ordered the CreamyĀ MushroomsĀ every time just changing it very slightly. Obviously not an egg eater, the cafe was more than happy to alter the dish to please your preference. To be honest if you feel like you donā€™t want/need think the egg ā€“ swap it out for the home made hash brown! It is chunky and the crunch is perfect, otherwise for a delicate touch, order avocado

Major sprout had me majorly full! This was another gem to be ticked off my foodie bucketlist and I happily did so today. A group of us had a post-workout brunch here this avo and it was a first for all of us.

The decor is really sleek and trendy with a lotta greenery and a clean design. There was so much sunshine coming through, making the place real warm and open. To start ,we had their juice specials for the day - lime, watermelon & mango. I would HIGHLY recommend this if it ever came up on their menu coz it was soo delicious!! Super light and refreshing and the toasted mango bits were really nice too. We then ordered the Green eggs bene, the breakfast crossaint , buttermilk pancakes and the Tteok galbi burger.

The burger sounded good on the menu but tasted pretty average on the plate but I LOVED the pancakes. Even though it looks real rich, the flavours were very light and worked so well together. I also like how their menu puts an Asian spin on classic dishes like Eggs Benedict and halloumi. Their presentation is also INCREDIBLE. Overall, Major Sprout is such a beautiful cafe to spend the afternoon with friends with plenty of warm sunshine!! I'm stoked that I finally tried it after seeing all their gorgeous dishes on Insta.

I wasn't actually that obsessed with this place and their food. The interior was lovely, the food was just as visually appealing as the interior. But it didn't taste that good.

Had brunch with a friend at Major Sprout today and came in at around 11am to find the cafe jam-packed as it was their busiest hour. The staff was extremely nice and attentive by writing our names down and making sure that we got a place to sit after we had a 15 minute wait. I ordered the Buttermilk pancakes which had almond marscapone, butterscotch and toasted marshmallows alongside the Strawberries and Cream smoothie. My friend ordered a croissant and a chai latte.

The buttermilk pancakes was a masterpiece in itself with it's presentation and it had a good amount of pancakes to keep me full however the addition with the candyfloss with the toasted marshmallows was somewhat overbearing given that it was too sweet however my smoothie managed to dampen that sweetness.

Overall I enjoyed my visit to Major Sprout as it was one of the places I had been longing to visit although it was somewhat overpriced. The ambience of the cafe was warm and comforting , I honestly can't wait to come back here again.

Was craving pancakes so came here at around 2 in the afternoon and it was so busy!!! Had the pancakes and the green eggs benedict along with a flat white and a cappuccino. The coffee was definitely good, the latte art was really impressive. The waiters were attentive despite the busy restaurant however service took so long!!! I think we waited for our food for a solid 20 minutes which is pretty long for a cafe but honestly it was worth it. The pancakes were heavenly I loved the crunchy granola, the candy floss, the marshmallows, everything! Honestly the pancakes were a 10/10 and an extra point for presentation. However the eggs Benedict was bland and the salmon was cooked?!?! Was a bit of a let down but it wasn't bad. Would defs come here again for pancake cravings.

A stylish inner city cafĆ© with a great rating on Zomatoā€¦ but will it live up to its reputation we questioned? The answer from us was YES.Ā 

After having this cafƩ bookmarked for months, my partner and I finally tried it out in the weekend. Walking in the interior is right on trend with a monochrome colour palette, touches of marble, wood and scandi features. The large windows and shelved pot plants bring the cafƩ to life. Greeted and seated promptly, our waiter was welcoming and friendly. Served sparkling water and menus minutes later, things were off to a great start. The menu is very appealing, with some new takes on classic dishes and also several Korean inspired dishes.
Ā 
We went for sweet and savoury during our brunch visit. The Green eggs benedict with mushrooms and avocado for him, and the Buttermilk pancakes with vanilla bean ice-cream for me. The eggs benedict was the best weā€™ve had to date! The potato rostiā€™s are delicious!! Shredded potato thatā€™s soft with texture on the inside and crunchy on the outside. The eggs were done perfectly and the mushrooms and avo balanced the dish nicely.

The Buttermilk pancakes were picture perfect with pops of pink scattered throughout. The mixture of almond mascarpone, butterscotch and toasted marshmallows wasnā€™t too overpowering, however I was glad I ordered the extra side of vanilla bean ice-cream as my pancakes were a little dryā€¦but with a full jar of vanilla bean maple syrup (Noblw brand I must add) served with the pancakes this was no longer a problem. I wouldnā€™t say the marshmallows were toasted but they sure were good and worth mentioning!
Ā 
Overall we were very pleased with our visit. The food was great, the service memorable and the overall presentation of both the cafƩ and dishes was to a high standard.
The design of their takeaway coffee cups was a successful move, I would definitely prefer their marble prints over a standard cup any day! Thereā€™s no doubt weā€™ll be back for sure...

Came for breakfast on a weekday and it wasn't too busy at all. I had the creamy mushrooms and would definitely recommend, though I would avoid if you don't want to gnaw through sourdough with your knife. Coffee was good but a bit on the cold side. All berry smoothie was above average. Staff made a difference, very accommodating and looking out for your needs and eager to please, which makes such a difference.

Had 4 different lunches here with a different order each time. The food was always nicely presented and very healthy.

I think it's a little lacking in the flavor department but I am being pedantic because they are expensive. Don't get me wrong it's nice food, but so focused on being healthy it feels a little bluh!

Still, I always love coming here and I plan to bring clients here for working lunches whenever possible.

Came here for lunch during the work week and was impressed with the interior and vibe. Fairly busy just before 1pm but still enough seats around. All the staff members were friendly.

Since they offer an all day breakfast, I had the eggs bene with salmon ($19.50) ā€“ which was beautifully presented. I love that they serve the eggs (and green sauce!) on a potato rosti/hash brown. The smoked salmon was a bit average though; I should have gotten another topping. Portions are what you'd expect from an upmarket cafĆ©.

Would be keen to come back to try some of their drinks and their Korean-inspired dishes.

Went to major sprout with a bunch of friends for my birthday lunch and it was absolutely tasty! Top 5 cafe's to date and I have tried MANY.Ā 
Point of difference - Healthy twist on classic dishes that are hard to find anywhere else
We ordered 5 meals from the menu (Top left - Bottom right)
Creamy Mushrooms - Both friends ordered the classic because it's always their go to at any cafe. They said it was nice but you can certainly tell its on the healthier side due to less cream. If you love creamy mushrooms and are on a healthy diet then it is a perfect choice, but if not then it may be slightly disappointing
Sous Vide Chicken - Be aware that the portion size is a bit small so if you have a big appetite or looking for a big meal then maybe pass on this one. Didn't fill up my friend so was slightly disappointed
Green Eggs Benedict - The portion again is slightly small but it had a nice twist to the typical eggs benedict that is generic in almost every cafe.Ā 
Bibimbap - I personally had this and it was perfect!! Such a nice healthy twist on a Korean classic which is highly difficult to find. Instead of rice they have quinoa so it was filling and satisfying. Highly recommend
Burger - The boyfriend got this one and he is a huge burger enthusiast. He loved this burger and said it was one of the best he has had (especially from a cafe). If you love burgers then would highly recommend

I love love love major sprout's version of the Eggs Benedict. The eggs were cooked perfectly, runny yolk and all, crispy hash as the base and a delicious healthy sauce to replace the usual hollandaise. I'm not one for changing how a classic dish should be made (talking about the hollandaise sauce here) but their version works.

My friend had the other dish with the fish (I think it was kingfish). It was just a tad dry for his liking, but the flavours were still there.

Oh and great coffee (can't rememeber what beans they use).

The place is usually super busy around lunch, so don't go there if you're in a hurry. Service does take some time, even when there's not too many people around. But the food is definitely worth the wait.

Tucked away on Graham Street in the heart of the business district is Major Sprout. It is the latest venue of the creators of Dear Jervois, a much loved Auckland brunch spot. Heading up the kitchen is Phil Czerwonatis, former chef of Rosie cafe in Parnell. Imitating a garden feel, the cafe is light and airy with a fresh, crisp feel. Flowers and plants adorn any spare available nook and cranny and you would be forgiven for thinking that you were in a fauna filled conservatory in the middle of the bush.

I love the feeling I get when I step into Major Sprout, the decor is very simplistic and light and it feels very clean.
I have dined here twice, and both times the service was top notch. It's nice to walk into a restaurant where the wait staff actually want to accommodate you and make you feel like they want your business.
The first time I tried the mushroom gnocchi and a side of brussel sprouts.
The second time I had the seared tuna, which was unfortunately slightly dry and overcooked but to be fair the components were spectacular. The green dumplings is a standout - the best dish I have had there so far.
Their smoothies are fresh and tasty too and I definitely want to try more.

Not somewhere you only want to go once, Major Sprout is deffs up there on the top brunch spots in AKL. Make sure youre prepared to wait atleast half an hour to an hour on a Sunday morning (bring a book!...) This is probably one of the few places that will be worth that kind of wait.Ā 
Every single thing on the menu Ā is delicious, their cabinet food looks well worth a try and their smoothies, coffees, and other assortment of drinks accompany the dishes really well.Ā 
Seems like everywhere in Akl is now 'asian fusion' but you wont find us complaining.Ā 
The staff are friendly and ambiance is inviting and comfortable.

You know it's a good sign when you can barely find a seat in a cafe!
Very busy when we visited one weekend but we did manage to eventually get seated. With a beautiful light and airy interior this is definitely an Instagram worthy place to check out. I ordered the acai bowl and strawberry and cream smoothie (which is quite possibly one of the nicest smoothies I have tasted yet). Both were delicious however next time I won't order a smoothie and a smoothie bowl as it was quite hard to finish both. Lots of delicious and healthy options to choose from.

From the team behind Dear Jervois comes Major Sprout, a stylish inner-city eatery in the heart of Auckland CBD. Iā€™d read several reviews about the cafe, but it wasnā€™t until a friend posted some of their stunning dishes accompanied by a vibrant pink latte that I decided I simply had to come and do a review! Excitedly, I set a Sunday reservation and girls brunch date.

Our reservation was at 12:30, and though we were about 20 minutes early, the staff showed us to our table ā€“ a high table at the front. With glossy concrete floors and floor to ceiling windows letting in plenty of sunshine, the cafe is beautifully spacious and airy. We adored the modern, industrial chic decor mixed with luscious greenery. To our surprise, the place was incredibly full ā€“ it was so busy, we were glad we had made a reservation!

The pink latte Iā€™d seen is their Beetroot Latte ā€“ one of their rainbow lattes, along with Chai, Turmeric & Matcha. While tempting, I was intrigued by the Strawberries & Cream Smoothie and chose it to start with, while my friends chose the Blueberry & Basil Smoohie and Matcha Latte. With strawberries, coconut cream, dates, banana and almond milk, my smoothie was delightfully creamy and subtly sweet. My friend who chose the Blueberry & Basil loved the smoothie, commenting that even with the blend of unusual ingredients like basil and activated charcoal, it tasted mainly of blueberry. My friend who chose the Matcha Latte also enjoyed her drink, although being a big lover of green tea, thought it could do with a stronger flavour.

We ordered our mains from their all-day breakfast and lunch menu: Green Eggs Benedict with Smoked Salmon, Buttermilk Pancakes, and Halloumi & Beetroot Salad. All of our dishes arrived at once, beautifully presented and garnished with colourful details: the bright green sauce & watercress on the eggs benedict, the strawberry & pink meringue on the pancakes, the salad decorated like a garland.

My Halloumi & Beetroot Salad was served with golden beetroot, barley, greens and candied walnuts. The flavours were full and flavoursome, complementing each other perfectly in addition to the wholesome, chewy texture of the halloumi and fresh beetroot. My friend who chose the Green Eggs Benedict loved her soft poached eggs contrasted by the crunchy potato rosti. This dish offers the additional choice of house-cured slab bacon or smoked salmon, and while she loved the smoked salmon she chose, she wouldā€™ve liked to have it raw.

The Buttermilk Pancakes were a favourite ā€“ thick and fluffy, they had a lovely texture, complemented by creamy almond mascarpone and butterscotch my friend described as ā€˜slightly salty, almost like salted caramelā€™ which was the perfect balance for a sweet dish.

We were incredibly full after, but after browsing their cabinet showcasing delights like lemon loaf and cacao & peanut butter balls, we decided to share a Hazelnut Baby Cake. It was Ferrero Rocher in a cake: chocolate-flavoured cake topped with crunchy hazelnuts and a thick hazelnut buttercream. I absolutely loved this dessert, and while the cake itself could have been more moist, it was very delicious and decadent served with the rich buttercream!

Overall, we absolutely loved our brunch at Major Sprout. The decor was warm and inviting, the food & drinks aesthetic, wholesome and satisfying, and the service friendly and attentive. Iā€™d highly recommend the cafe if youā€™re searching for your new brunch spot mixed with fresh, healthy choices & sophisticated city chic.

A friend of mine read great reviews about this place, so we absolutely could not wait to check it out.

It was jam packed during Sunday lunch time, so really glad we made a reservation. We adored the clean, modern, and chic take on the industrial styled decor. Service was friendly and we were attended to constantly.

The menu was extensive with lots of healthy options. We started with berry smoothies for my friends, and a matcha latte for myself. They were all beautifully presented, with vibrant, intense colors. My friends enjoyed their smoothies, though the berry & basil one has little basil flavour. My matcha was nice, a bit more on the mild side for someone who loves green tea.

For our mains, one friend of mine ordered the beetroot & halloumi salad, the vegetables were well roasted and flavored. My other friend had the salmon Benedict. The crispy potato rosti was the perfect compliment to her soft boiled eggs, though she did not care much for the green sauce, and would have prefer raw smoked salmon rather than cooked. My buttermilk pancakes were as pretty as a picture, with meringues in different shades of pink as decoration. The pancakes were thick and fluffy, and the butterscotch sauce had a slightly saltiness to it which balanced out the sweetness from the rest of the dish.

We also shared a hazelnut chocolate baby cake as dessert to finish. This was perhaps the least impressive item of the day. It was very cute to look at, loved the crunch from the hazelnut and the flavour of the buttercream. However, the cake itself was dry, the popcorn on top also tasted stale. Would not order this again.

All in all, although there is definitely space for improvement, it was a lovely spot to catch up with girlfriends, and offer fantastic photo opportunities.

This cafe has got it all right. All our dishes meticulously prepared and cooked to perfection. Never thought I would wax lyrical about homemade baked beans but theirs are genuinely lovely with a bit of a spicy kick. The crew in the kitchen clearly think every thing on the plate has to be delivered just-right, and it was. The staff are friendly and relaxed and very efficient. The cafe has been beautifully designed and is a lovely environment in which to sit and enjoy. The music is tasteful and set at a volume that makes conversation easy to have. Even the magazines are a bit special. A mixture of content with off beat articles and a pleasure to browse. A light spacious high quality cafe that has thought through every detail of what it takes to present a delightful cafe experience. Well done Major Sprout.

Amazing how this place transformed from what it was to this beautifully decorated cafe. It was super busy at 10am on Saturday. They were great with our reservation and also automatically prepared baby chairs and sip cups since we told them there were babies coming.

Service wise, I think they were overwhelmed with the number of customers because my coffee took half an hour to arrive and tasted sour and over extracted. Friend's hot chocolate came after her meal even though ordered before it.

Despite that, when our food finally arrived, it was delicious. Buttermilk pancakes were light and fluffy! The mushroom gnocchi was tasty (slightly expensive though... Only 3 pieces of gnocchi and lots of mushroom. I also paid $5 for little bits of provolone)

Ambience was bright and sunny. I'll have to come back and give their coffee another try. Maybe at a less busy time.

Saturday morning breakfast / brunch and major sprout is rapidly filling up with Pump-sucking, Lycra-sprayed evacuees from les mills. The space is "nice" - modern, clean, polished concrete underfoot, a bit of scandanavian modernism, and a healthy looking scattering of pot plants. All in all pleasant.

The menu is interesting - the impression is healthy-ish but clearly this isnt the focus (thank god) - this is no trendy, mass market pandering un-eatery.

A very pleasant lady waiter was patient as we sat down and rejected two different tables (too cramped - too high). From our just right table we ordered some white coffees of variable nomenclature and a summer kombucha. The coffees I think we're Flight (excellent) and none were screwed up by bad baristaship - a good start. The kombucha disappointedly wasn't home made but still pleasant.

We ordered three plates - matcha granola, seasonal fruits and crunchy gentleman-a playful take on a croque Monsieur I guess. The matcha was ok but gluey rather than granolery, the fruit was colourful- more show than punch -kaleidoscopically arresting and incorporating slightly overworked retro fruit carving, and the croaky old man was heavy on the toasted brioche - pleasant but not spectacular.

I think that sums up my impression - pleasant but not spectacular - after an hour's aerobic flailing, perhaps that's all that's required.

It was interesting that while some people with hang-ups find breast feeding repulsive in restaurants, I find adults periodically sucking on Pumps in restaurants far more so ... funny really .....

Tried this new place back in March and was pleasantly surprised. The smoothies were realy good (except for the mocha one which I thought tasted weird).

I ordered the green eggs benedict and really enjoyed it - was super filling! I also like how you can just order 1 rather than the two portions it usually comes in so if you can't or don't want to eat that much then you have the option!

The burger was average (I dont recommend ordering burgers at cafes usually but what can you do when you have a 9 year old with you). Buut the fries that came with it were good šŸŸ

I love the modern feel this place has! Very instagrammable šŸ˜ would go back to try more things for myself.

Visited with a friend for lunch during our work break. I made the novice mistake of ordering a Bibimbab - it was expensive, and not even comparable to those made at Korean restaurants. That's more my own fault I reckon; I recommend that visitors stick to the other dishes.

Also. Sparkling water. I know you're trying to be fancy, but how about asking before you fill up those glasses? And when we do tell you we want normal tap water, don't then refill the glasses after we've finished them with sparking water again! Please just ask your customers. It's a simple two second question and would save people like me getting frustrated and enjoying the experience of dining with you less.

Had a cappuccino which was quite nice.

Went here for mother's day lunch having heard good things about this place. Being mother's day the place was packed out and we had settled for a late lunch. Set with an industrial feel to it in the midst of the offices in the central CBD, this place is a breath of freshness. The nice touch of providing all mother's with a little cupcake at the start set a great tone to the meal and occasion.

We started with their 'superfood' smoothies of strawberries and cream and sprouting green. Both refreshing in differing ways. The sprouting green with its freshness of kale and spirulina while the delectable combination of frozen strawberries, coconut cream and banana was moreish.

Mains were the angus burger with potato skins which was cooked well with the nice added flavours of zucchini and roast pepper relish made it comparable with any of the other gourmet burgers from the various other places.
The mushrooms and gnocchi was a marriage of restrained flavour of the mushrooms with the buttery sauce and capped off with the 62 degree egg which added more creamy textures to the dish. Plated elegantly which was pleasing on the eye.
The surprise of the meal was the Bibimbap which had hints of the traditional Korean dish with subtle additions and flavours of the quinoa rice and accompanied by the succulent pork belly (an extra but highly recommended). It made the whole dish an excellent blend of old and new which in its setting seemed to sum up the place.
Wait staff were courteous and helpful although at times, maybe due to the business of the place, were slow to react to our needs.

Overall a great meal and another place to definitely visit again

After some disappointing omelettes recently I took a gamble and ordered another one with prosciutto and it was amazing - completely restored my faith in the old omelette!! We ordered coffees which, all be it, I didn't absolutely love but they were hot and strong so I can't complain too much. We also ordered the big fill which came complete with pork belly and some beautiful home made baked beans.

Sophisticated, fresh and inviting, three words I'd use to describe Major Sprout. The open space, white interior and pot plants give it a lovely clean, fresh feel while the metal framing and concrete floors give it a lovely industrial undertone. The menu has all the classics to keep everyone happy but they have their own take on each item. The big fill instantly caught my attention with pork belly, eggs, lamb sausages and more.. It really has it all! Smoothies were delicious too! Parking is pretty good for a city cafe and the staff were excellent. It definitely lived up to its name. Can't wait to come back!

This street you may have had to venture down to get a LIM from the ACC but that was about all it was good for until now. Old habits die hard and I wasn't sure if it was worth the trouble coming down here until I saw the replenishment itself. Major Sprout is a shining beacon of where cafe culture has come to now andĀ perfectly fits the mould of other invigorating cafes such as Dear Jervois (same people :-), Catroux, Zomer, the list goes on. If you or your amatuer diner friends are ever nearby then I hope you will find a free table...

Major Sprout is our regular for fortnightly business meetings. The atmosphere is great and the space is very light. I'm a sucker for the Strawberry smoothie and the Mars cheesecake will satisfy your sweet tooth. Delicious food! I've also heard the green eggs benedict is a hit!

A trendy spot for breakfast, brunch, lunch or just coffee! While the menu isn't that extensive they execute it well in a nicely decorated space with lovely staff. Parking is a nightmare but it's definitely worth a visit!

Such beautiful fresh food! Love the very berry smoothing and it's so refreshing to eat fresh strawberries. The staff were very patient with us as some of our table were a bit hangry! Thanks major sprout, it was a dream X

This place is the gold standard in the cafe scene. As soon as you walk in you feel calm thanks to its light, bright, airy and beautifully turned out decor. The staff are smiley, happy and friendly and give consistently wonderful service. They all make you feel so welcome which is a real pleasure. The coffee is a constant 10/10, the best there is. The food is inventive, beautifully presented and tastes amazing. I have enjoyed the green eggs benedict two days running, and I couldn't fault it. Sensational. Ā Major Sprout is perfection.

The newest place on Graham st and it was bustling when we checked it out. I fancied a hearty meal so went with the burger and fries plus bacon, because it's bacon....
It was really good the bacon was amazing not crisp like I usually prefer but thick and and delicious! The burger and fries amazing but filling so I couldn't finish. I will definitely be going again to try some of the rest of their menu!

From the creative team that brought us Dear Jervois, Major Sprout is a recent addition to the cafe scene in Auckland CBD. With floor to ceiling glass walls, spacious dining area and an eclectic display of light fixtures and floral arrangement, it screams sleek and sophistication. Head Chef Phil Czerwonatisā€™Ā menu has a green approach and offer dishes like a fresh and healthy version of the Korean Bibimbap,Ā quinoa and brown rice fritters and a mushroon and truffled gnocchi with a 62 degree henā€™s egg as well as sweet options in the cabinet by Raw Kitchen.

One of my new favourite cafes ! Okay update- THE fave cafe I've been to for brunch
Prices were reasonable and food was amazing
From presentation, service, quality of food and interior, it was superb
Their cabinet menu expanded since they first opened- it's just getting better
Oh and the cafe walls are mostly glass so a lot of sunshine can come through if you go on a nice day šŸ˜‚
Definitely recommend !!
The staff there are so nice as well- esp the Korean girl with the lovely smile! Best service :)

This is the second time I have been since opening in late Nov and I cant wait to go again to try out the rest of the menu!

Both meals I had were amazing and the people I was with all loved their meals, we are already taking about what day this week we can go back!

Staff are friendly and very helpful.

Can't wait to go back and work my way through the menu :)

Major sprout is a fairly new cafe hidden on the edge of CBD. The cafe has an extensive unique menu and it was simply so hard to decide! Settled for an eggs benedict and mushroom dish, both nicely presented and super yum.

Major Sprout is a very hipster cafe. For example, there is a barrister with a beard who is also a hipster, sourdough toast and quite a lot of succulents. Located in the city, it's smaller than what I expected, but the decor is very nice.

Their coffee is very good, one of the best I've had in auckland. The compressed watermelon and stonefruit with strawberry chia labneh was light, fresh and had a good texture contrast between the smooth labneh (strained yoghurt cheese), juicy watermelon and crunchy nut topping. I would have liked a bit more nut topping though, as the meal was not particularly substantial. (I ordered eggs on the side). It was very beautifully arranged though, extremely Instagram worthy. My buddy said her Eggs Benedict was very rich and filling, and she found it delicious!

Overall, I think this is a very nice place to visit in the city for some wholesome and creative meals, and I liked eating breakfast in the mid of the morning buzz. The acai bowl also looks very nice.

With how amazing Dear Jervois is I had high expectations for Major Sprout and it didn't disappoint. The interior and fit out for this cafe is incredible and has such a great feel to it. The staff are helpful and friendly. Two of us had the broken eggs and herbed asparagus and it was delicious, I also had a very berry smoothie which I highly recommend and my friend said the green smoothie was also great. My other friend had the burger and said it was one of the best burgers she had ever had and also highly rated the coffee. I will definitely be coming back here!!

Such an amazing place! The food is delicious and the atmosphere is so relaxing and calm! Really like the interior! They have a lot of vegan/vegetarian/gluten free and even refined sugar free options, like raw cakes, sushi rolls, salads etc. I ordered acai bowl, which was really nice, and my friends ordered cacao granola, which was a bit different to what they have expected, it was more like a cacao smoothie bowl with a bit of granola on top, yet it was delicious, creamy and quite filling! The portions were quite small, but it's not too bad. Both acai bowl and cacao granola were $15. Also they have nice coffees, and they can make it with homemade almond milk, which tastes delicious! Definitely recommend this place'

I was looking forward to the opening of Major Sprout, as I had enjoyed Dear Jervois, I do have a fair bit of higher expectation on this eatery. I went there a few days after their opening for lunch. Some new eatery upon their first opening month, you would be expecting a bit of unorganized or untrained staff but this doesn't seem to be the case in Major Sprout. There was a bit of a hiccups but weren't major and staff were truthful to tell us that they haven't managed to tried all the food yet as they just open but was still happy to give us an idea of what each dish like. It was pretty packed when I went there for lunch but the lovely staff managed to sit us down with a 10mins waiting time. She also explained to me to expect a 20mins wait for food, we totally understand based on looking at the lunch crowd. The decor was a stylish modern decor, I like the tree trunk like LED light facing the main entrance. Beautifully designed decor.

Me and my friend ordered Daily Market Fish and I ordered the Bibimbap add Pork Belly for our lunch. The food was amazingly fantastic, the only one comment, I shall say is, I didn't have enough of it! It will be great if it's slight bigger portion.

My friend order a raspberry lemon soda and I ordered the Blueberry & Basil Smoothie. Both drinks were amazing. The soda was refreshing and the smoothie had an impressive taste which I will to make at home soon, loving it! The only hiccup on this part was the guy that took our order apparently keyed in two of each drinks and they been popping over to us to offer us same drinks again, it was a minor mistake but all good, we would love to have more of it of course.

My overall review on Major Sprout, a big thumbs up to them for being so amazing!

Ambience / Decor: 5

Service: 5 - friendly staff and did informed us on wait time and got us a nice table and accommodate our request well for a seating

Food / Taste: 5 (based on Lunch menu)

Price: 5 - the price is reasonable based on the quality of food

Overall: 5

As if we weren't already impressed by Little King and Dear Jervois, Major Sprout is yet another amazing eatery that has recently popped up on Graham Street from the creative minds of David Lee & co.. Ā I was so glad to finally have the chance to try out this newly opened cafe located right next to Scratch Bakers HQ as I couldn't find the menu for the place anywhere. Upon entering, I was immediately impressed by the interior layout of the place. You could tell this cafe had some relation to Dear Jervois by noticing the extensive arrangement of pot plants and beautiful modern furniture and ofc, the types of plates and bowls they used. The place was also really spacious inside and had an amazing& bright atmosphere which made it a great place for a catch up with friends.

The front cabinet had a large variety of food on offer including multiple choices of sushi rolls composed of quinoa rice and unique ingredients such as mango, cucumber, avo and many more ( vegetarian options available); these were $2.20 each. Different types of cakes, slices and cookies were also on display; it was great to see they had various raw healthy options too such as bliss balls, a salted caramel tart, blueberry cheesecake and a raw tiramisu which were priced at around $8 each.

Kay time for the part that really matters, THE FOOD! The menu offered HEAPS of unique and wholesome all day breakfast and lunch options which cater for almost anybody's palette ( yes including GF, DF, Sugar Free and Vegetarian choices ;) ). It's probably my goal to come back to this cafe to try out each and every option, but for today I had decided on the Bibimbap, whereas my friends had opted for the angus beef burger, two of the sushis and also the Mocha Maca smoothie.

BiBimBap; 10/10 Hands down the nicest bibimbap I've ever had in Auckland city. This was different from the regular BiBimBaps you'd find in a korean restaurant as it was served on top of a combination of rice and quinoa and came with a delicious tofu crumble and a generous amount of sauteed mushrooms and spinach. Topped with the most perfectly poached egg and served with a small side of homemade chilli jam and kimchi; I could not fault a single thing about this dish. would HIGHLY recommend to anyone; for a price of $18 it was definitely money worth.

Angus beef burger: 8/10, although I had preferred the beef burger served at dear jervois slightly better due to the patty, this burger follows close behind in terms of taste and best of all, it comes with a side of crunchy potato skins and an interesting mayo-like dip ( not too sure what this was but it seemed to have hints of black sesame). The burger was packed full of flavour and the beef was accompanied perfectly by the relish and salad. $22, also extremely money worth.

Sushi: I didnt get to try this but my friend was relatively satisfied with the flavours; however she did say it was mostly just made out of rice. I would reccomend trying things off their kitchen menu instead :P

Mocha Maca smoothie: 7/10, if you're a coffee and a coconut lover, then this is the perfect smoothie for you! The combination of coconut milk went surprisingly well with the espresso shot, cocoa, banana and maca although it may be an acquired taste as it had an extremely interesting sourish aftertaste due to the coconut milk. Was super delicious in my opinion and very filling even tho it's served in a relatively small glass.Ā 

Overall, I was immensely impressed with Major Sprout in regards to it's topnotch first class service, amazing atmosphere and presentation and of course their food (they also serve sparkling water which is a bonus in my books hehe). The prices are extremely reasonable for the quality and quantity of food they serve you; I'll definitely be returning soon to try out every dish on their menu ;)

Was so excited to try this place out since it has the same owner as Dear Jervois. The cafe itself is really nice and the cabinet food alone looks amazing with lots of gluten free treats and their own sushi! Both myself and my friend tried the green eggs benedict with bacon which was really tasty. The strawberries and cream smoothie was YUM and is one to try. A bit pricey at $9 for a smallish glass though. Will definitely be back to try work my way through more of the menu

Had brunch here one weekend and I really enjoyed it. Last time I ate here was more than a year ago, and it was like rediscovering the cafe again. Ordered the Free Range Eggs w Toast and added sautĆ©ed herb mushrooms to it. The poached eggs were perfect-- the yolk would just ooze out once sliced with a fork. Flat white was also amazingly good ā˜• Food was served quickly even though the cafe was almost full, and staff is really nice. Loved the whole experience! Will definitely be back šŸ¤©

The food was good, but they don't let you choose how you want your eggs and the portions aren't large. The glasses are really small for some reason and getting water top is inconsistent. The chairs in some areas are uncomfortable, I saw a few groups ask to move locations. The place was very packed and noisy.

We came to this restaurant as recommended zomato gold and got the okonomiyaki and the green tea noodle salad. The okonomiyaki was made very well and tasted delicious, arguably better than those made in Japan. The noodle salad wasn't bad but felt a bit small portion wise and made you wanting more. The service was good but I didn't like the small water cups and small water pitchers, which required to be refilled 4 times during our visit. The restaurant is modern but felt stuffy on on the day.

This is my new breakfast spot! Great coffee, amazing menu that is unique, creative and fresh. Overall the food is well balanced and prepared to perfection. The green Eggs Benedict is a new take on the traditional hollandaise version, I loved the thicker bacon, it was juicy and tasty. The rosti was crispy on the outside while soft and gorgeous on the inside. This version left me feeling a little "healthier" than your usual eggs bene!

A fantastic little cafe in Auckland that brings some Korean Fusion to brunch/lunch. It's hard to find the MENU online, so I snapped a copy and included it in the photos! The decor and atmosphere is great, and the food is really good (with hints of Korean influences). I had "The Big Fill" - their take on typical big breakfast. It came with Thick cut bacon, lamb sausage, agria (potato) rosti, pork-belly, home-made baked beans, poached eggs, sourdough. This really hit the spot as I was wanting a big meal. The one thing I'll say is that I'm not a fan of home-made baked beans... but this isn't a compliant against the cafe, I just don't enjoy beans at all. My wife had the Bibimbap, which was really tasty. Not a traditional korean version of the dish, but an updated/brunch-like creation. It's hard to explain. My friend had the Tteok Galbi Burger, which is like a meatball/rissole burger, and looked fantastic. The meatballs were quite tasty and I had only a slight amount of food envy. The one thing I might say is that parking could be tough, I'm not from around here so I had no clue. Coffee was outstanding and they had some epic looking donuts for sale!

Food was really good and nice atmosphere. Just the service that let it down a bit having to ask for water, coffee orders and food. There's a kids menu and they had pens for them to use too. It's tucked away in central Auckland not far from Sky City so parking isn't great even on the weekend.

We went for brunch and was really impressed with the service and serving sizes. I got the creamy mushrooms and the dude got some mince dish that was also extremely tasty. The only reason I took off one star is that the sour dough slices were kind of hard to cut through? Like, it felt like we had to reaaally saw through them.
