Tucked away from the pretentiousness of Ponsonby Road is this lovely little cafe - the coffee is "best", the food is yummy and the service is friendly and warm. You can't go wrong with this one - great place for brunch and did i mention the coffee is super?
I've been to Blake Street 2 or 3 times for breakfast and each time it's been good. The menu has some standard breakfast dishes plus some different dishes like bubble and squeak with chorizo. Blake Street is worth a try
Owners Andre and Shelly do an outstanding job of making clientele feel welcome whilst providing delicious food and coffee. There are preserves and jams available to purchase, made by Shelly’s mother. The indoor plants lend charm yet the decor is modern. One of Ponsonby’s hidden gems.
This Cafe has fantastic food & service. The Owners, Andre & Shelley make lovely breakfasts, freshly made juices, chutneys, sweet slices, savouries, salads and have an extensive menu. Also coffee, teas & wine available. Very popular with the Locals & their dogs woof woof and return visitors. Parking also available. Very dog friendly woof woof.

Fabulous fabulous and dog friendly
Great kai. Wonderful service
What a fab cafe this is, so good it is always my go to knowing the coffee will be 10/10 and the food will be absolutely superb, never faulters. They preserve there own chutneys of all variations which are available to buy, tasty and diverse flavours.
Can’t rate this cafe high enough not only for the food and service but the cosy size and atmosphere run by an experienced team.
Enjoyed my time here - good coffee and vibes plus friendly staff! Might make this a more regular spot to do some reading.
Nice little Cafe with friendly staff and great food
I love this husband and wife run cafe. Today had slow cooked lamb on a bed of pasta with a slice of sourdough bread, Perfect. My lunch companion enjoyed a beautifully presented smoked salmon bagel with green leaf salad. After 15 years Blake Street Espresso has a comforting feel
Came here for a coffee as I was staying across the road - highly recommended! Amazing coffee, friendly service.
Lovely cafe owner, great food and good coffee. A hidden gem of Ponsonby, used to go to Didda but got put off by their arrogant and rude staff, so Blake will definitely be pur new favorite cafe place. Keep you good work guys!!!!!
Great food and coffee. Genuinely friendly service
This is quite a find. Great coffee and a menu of breakfasts, lunches, and afternoon tea. Situated around the back of 3 Lamps and behind Glengarry on Jervois Rd. Corner of Blake and Prosford Sts. Friendly staff deliver great service with a smile.
Second visit for January!! Great atmosphere, friendly owners willing to cook to our specifications! Delicious! 😊👍
Really fresh delicious food, cooked to order, great service and best coffee in Auckland. Friendly, happy neighbourhood cafe. Love it.
