This place was such a lifesaver during our time on Waiheke. Having multiple dietary requirements can be stressful while holidaying but this gorgeous cafe kept us fed every day (sometimes twice a day) during our time on Waiheke! Always hot or cold vegan options available as well as copious gluten free sweets & meals. I highly recommend everyone stops here! Also the only shop I came across which offered more than just cow or soy milk for coffee :)
Had no idea this place served such awesome vegan food as we didn't find it in the guide books or the web directories we used, and just happened to pop in as we drove past! Very happy we did - great selection of vegan options including salads, snacks, sweet treats, ice creams and other goodies, including frozen meals and take-away dinners too. Lovely atmosphere and the owner was super helpful and friendly. Highly recommend.
The best food made with pure love and passion.
What you find here will be always fantastic: amazing food, excelent service, and wonderful beings =)
a place to know!
Mouthwatering vegan options! The lasagne, stuffed eggplant and chilli are absolutely delicious. As well as their chickpea salad and fennel salad. They do superb coffee too. A must visit on waiheke island!
Everything we have eaten here has been delicious and by far the best coffee on the island. And did I mention the wonderful staff? Wish we lived here - do you deliver to Australia?
We tried the heat and eat meals for the first time! It was fresh and so delicious! Will certainly have more dinners from here as this also is a huge plus for commuters who get back to the island tired and too tired to cook for the family! Would highly recommend them.
Beautiful people, amazing selection of the finest food, on an island that should be called Heaven on Earth
Bevokte kos en pragtige mense. Die bobotie is soos ouma gemaak het. En moet NIE eers van die skaap skenkel praat NIE. Uitstekend!!! Sal weer kom
Yesterday we got the lasagne and salads for an easy dinner. Great food. Today we had a wonderful coffee and food in the deli. Another favourite place on Waiheke !
I have had you salads on my mind all day! The delicious, fresh and quick choices have hypnotized my appetite� �����
Amazing food, amazing service. I just went in for a quick snack and had a super delicious vegan sausage roll! Will def be back! Thanks :)
I absolutely love the whole set up of the shop. Looks amazing. Lovely owner. Great food.
Would defiantly go back again. Look forward to seeing whats new on the menu next :)
Best coffee in Waiheke easily and consistently (not that we're in as short supply as Auckland!). Fantastic personal service. Beautiful place with easy parking. Have never tasted anything from here I wasn't impressed with! Thanks for catering to people with alternative diets too! Love love love!!!
Absolutely delicious! Even picking out four salads I couldn't pick which I wanted, and don't ask me which was my favorite because I certainly don't know
Yummy, super flavoured food!! Thanks for let us enjoy real and healthy dishes
Love Timbuktu. Coffee is gorgeous. Willow is great and the food is incredible. Loving the frozen dinners. :)
Amazing cabinet food...always amazing tasty choices for lunch.
Great coffee and it feels like home away from home with the owners always there with a smile
The atmosphere and look of this place is unbeatable, such great vibes and aesthetic. Staff were super friendly and chill. Food was also super yum. A bit on the expensive side but worth it!
Great spot that we stumbled across walking home from the market. A little bit of hippie with healthy/vegan food options & great coffee.
I ordered the vegetarian quiche which had the right amount of filling & a delicious chutney.
Their vegan pies are really popular too, but there are meat options
Amazing food!! Suits every diet!! Vegan friendly!! Love the takeaway dinners ❤️❤️ my favourite of all time at Timbuktu is the hollandaise potato hash stack!! Yummmmm
There is a genuine sense of customer service excellence. Customers were addressed by name and those who waited seemed patient with the knowledge that they would be served with the same care as those being served at the time. The atmosphere is homely and the decor beautifully executed. I heard it was owned by a fellow South African and I felt right at home here.
The food here was delicious, vegan & non vegan. All delicious and a huge variety very busy but I can see why as it is amazing. Would come over to Waiheke just to eat here again!!
The coolest cafe with so much vegan option. We found this gem on our last day of our holiday so we ordered everything - VG pie, breakfast wrap, banana walnut loaf. So delicious, full of flavour and beautiful coffee. Lovely staff.
Best sausage roll I've ever had! (Pork and fennel, gourmet delight!). Also delicious healthy salads with roast veg etc and amazing looking meat selections in the cabinet. Grab some yummy healthy takeaways and a smooth coffee to enjoy on the coast.
Fabulous food including vegan options. I'm having their beef lasagne tonight for dinner at home. But enjoyed the mushroom and aubergine sausage roll for lunch thanks. Lovely open chilled atmosphere. Best selection of food on island.
Great food and excellent Allpress coffee, but expensive so this place didn't rate 5 stars. Food is really different, even the amazing cheese scones are full of seeds. The amazing cheese scones are also an amazingly eye watering price $nz7.50. Was it worth it? Hmm not sure. The decor is tired and the cups and plates are paper. Off street parking out the back
Beautiful Turkish style cafe with a great selection of healthy food, including fresh salads, baked salmon and chicken etc...etc...
Also, there is a variety of frozen food that is easy to cook.
Amazing cafe!
Good good ambience cafe located in waiheke island. Comfortable like home. With board games.
Amazing vegan selection👍 nice pies and desserts and good selection of lunch. Cosy atmosphere and lovely ladies working there. Loved the pumpkin pie and the eggplant one

Timbuktu is my favourite place on waiheke! Wow does this place knows how to do food! So many options, so much real food! It's nice to be a vegetarian/vegan and have a go to for quick food and tasty coffee! Staff are always really lovely too! Shout out to Willow for always recommending the most tasty vegan treat to me when I see you! Their Pies are literally amazing, my boyfriend loves the 'not' chicken curry one and my favourite is the vegan steak and mushroom, nom! We Can also recommend the raw salads and vegan lasagne and Chilli! If you're feeling like treating yourself you have to try the vegan chocolate cup cake! You won't believe it's vegan! You must try this place!
Such a cool place. Great service, yummo savoury scone & breakfast croissant & the best latte I've had in a very long time. Highly recommend
Great lunch here. Lots of vegan and gf options but enjoyed by us all. Great fresh salads. Friendly helpful staff.
The food is always delicious here, the coffee amazing, it is my favorite café to go to on the Island, it's all environmentally friendly and the staff are always wonderful
Creative and delicious vegan fare alongside some more traditional deli offerings to appeal to everyone in a funky setting with chill dog-friendly back patio.
The best beetroot and carrot salad I've had and a deliciously tasty vegan pie! Great coffee too!
Amazing dishes, plenty of vegan options, fresh healthy and tasty ! Recommended by the locals !
