Excellent service, good food, I had the hash stack and a hot chocolate. Very filling and satisfying , so tasty , I would recommend this place as a great cafe with food options to suit all diets
Nice vibe when you enter the staff are very friendly. I had the hashstack and it was delicious. Im normally hesitant when it comes to cafes as they are generally a hit or a miss but this one hit all the notes.
There were two of us and between us the vegetable stack and one slice of plum cake was enough to satisfy. The portions were substantial. The plum cake enterred the realms of my all time favourite cake experiences and the vegetable stack was just so good. My only complaints are the small size of the cafe and how closely set the tables are, with a small counter for ordering. plus I couldn't get yoghurt with the cake instead of cream. Pretty minor things in relation to the over all experience.
Absolutely love this cafe, I go in every other week and get the same wedges they are delicious, even with a busy cafe the staff are still able to connect with the customers. I love the environment with the tree of international coins on the wall and the little sit out in the front and back. Strongly recommend this place for others.
Amazing food, quite affordable. Popped in for brunch a couple of weeks ago, was spoilt for choice. Came back to try other options and was pleasantly surprised. Eggs Benedict, Salmon Bagel, and Potato Feta Cakes are to die for. The baked lemon cheesecake is huge and delicious, along the with vast selection of other cakes. The Cafe is always busy, right from opening, so make sure to get in fast! It will be worth your while :) Thank you Figg!!
After seeing photos of chocolate cake I had to give this place a try. The cake is delicious... I even appreciated the yogurt on the side. Location is small but cute... I like the outside seating options in the front and back. The other food was decent but they have nice attention to detail in the presentation (skip the smoothy though).
A good a la carte menu, and generally good cabinet food. The odd cake is sometimes dry, but usually pretty good. However, the coffee has somewhat gone downhill since changing to their new blend. Otherwise, a nice place to catch up for lunch or brunch.
Had the BLAT and an iced chocolate and it was possibly the best BLAT I have had in a long time. The service was really quick and the waitresses were very friendly
Best GF options in Petone and one of the few places across wider Wellington that uses GF bread made in Wellington, it is soft and delicious! It's popular so pick the time you go, nice wee garden section out the back
coffee's good, also had a chocolate cake which was huge and tasty. Spend $5.5 for such a big cake with cream, you can't find any place like this in town.
Early on a Saturday morning looking for somewhere to eat, we found Cafe Figg open.
Although tempted by the cabinet food, eggs on a potato rosti with creamy mushrooms won my vote. The portions are large. Be prepared to leave here very full. And coffee was good as well.
It wasn't too busy when we arrived but as we waited for our meal more showed up. Lots of seating tho. Another cool thing to note is the photos on the wall of local places taken by a local.
I've always passed up going to cafe figg on my Sunday morning breakfasts, but this week I saw they had changed the coffee they use, from mojo to aramo coffee. Intrigued, I decided to visit here instead of my usual. Atmosphere was nice- had a couple photographs up for sale, and they had some lovely leather seats around the tables. I opted for my usual- eggs bene and long black. The coffee was... Not good. It's hard to measure up when you're sat between my two favorite coffee places in wellington (go bang and beannie) but this coffee tasted like sour ash. Disappointing. I did however enjoy the best salmon eggs bene I've ever had here. The hollandaise absolutely immaculate, and eggs poached to perfection. Although j didn't grab any of the cabinet food, it looked really good, especially the cakes- yum. All in all I will absolutely be coming back for the eggs benedict, but will be passing on the coffee next time.

Have been here a number of times but never written review. Went today because it was possible to get a park near it and a seat in it. I had a pot of tea and the French toast with bacon, banana and maple syrup - hubby had a mocha and a beef burger. He said the burger bun was stodgy and cold, but the mocha was great. My French toast was perfect - plenty of bacon & banana swimming in maple syrup (usually there is never enough) and no icing sugar all over it, which I appreciate. For once my tea was not insipid. Comfy chairs and cosy decor. Will go back I'm sure.
Here's the hubby's thoughts:
"The missus had a Entertainment Book voucher to use for Figg, so we gave it a shot.
I had the burger, and she had the French Toast which was described as 'perfect'. My burger was underwhelming, both buns were discarded being cold and stodgy, and the innards were just the usual suspects. Nothing memorable. This was accompanied by wedges that weren't fresh or hot, nor did they have a crunch. The music had gone past 'background' and was too loud, and she copped a displeased look from the staff when presenting the voucher at the time of payment.
On the plus side, if you time it right you can score some very comfortable seats by the wall and my mocha was superb, as was her tea."
Pretty good food great portions very friendly staff members that make you feel welcome will go back again for sure the big breaky and pancakes are great so is the coffee and iced coffee !
Ordered a coffee and a hash stack. Coffee was nice and strong, proper home made hashbrowns and creamy mushrooms, was awesome! Poached eggs could have been a bit runnier but that's just my own taste.
Eating out for brunch each weekend we decided to try Cafe Figg regardless of the last review. I am so glad we did! The eggs benedict was cooked to perfection..the best we have had in the last five years of dining out for brunch! I wish I had the egg poaching ability of whomever cooked today..simply perfect..not to mention the yummy potato cake that came with it.. crunchy on the outside .soft and melt in mouth on inside. Coffee I would rate around the 8/10 mark..was a little bitter but definitely we will be going back. Keep up the awesome food and service!!
I am loving the coffee and the cheese scones in the morning.
My partner and I have gone to this cafe a few times and each time we have thoroughly enjoyed the food, coffee and service. As well as the outdoor seating area with grape vines surrounding a neat sunny spot.
It's a great place to catch up with a friend, not in a big group as the place has an intimate feel.
The chocolate cake is beautiful!! I also loved my eggs benedict which I devoured ;)
Overall a great place to visit A+
Have been a few times now, each time the food and service has been excellent. Coffee was ok - not amazing - but made up for by the delicious food. We had the beef burger which came with a side of crunchy wedges, aioli and sweet chilli sauce, and the corn fritters. The corn fritters are delish, with proper mushroom and courgettes in the batter. Thank you for a pleasant brunch. Sitting in the courtyard out the back in the sun made it so much nicer too!
We've been to Cafe Figg 3 times since November and each time have been very happy with the service, food and coffee.
Last visit was on Friday for brunch: the pancakes with bacon, banana and maple were delicious! And the bacon and eggs with home made hashbrown had by himself looked lovely too. The service was super quick, despite the place being busy, and the coffee was great too.
We'll be going back again for sure!
Really nice place for a hangover breakfast. The place is quite intimate (aka small) so it can be busy easily, but the breakfasts are generally well worth it.
The toilet represents a bit of history in that it is one of those outdoor entrance loos that were once so common in Petone.
Sorry Renee,you must have the wrong cafe(good clue is that you've got the coffee brand wrong for a start).The food is always fresh,delicious,and varied with generous choices for all,including vegetarian and gluten free options.I have always found the staff very friendly and obliging.
Went here with my partner on Saturday.
We were very impressed by the selection in their display cabinet and they also had a great menu.
We chose to go with the Vegetable Tart...it was phenomenal...!
Coffee was great too, and for dessert we went with a Ginger Almond Cake and a Blackcurrant Almond Cake - YUM! Beautifully moist and tasty :-)
Great service from the team there.
Would definitely go back (especially for the vege tart!) 5*+!
Really loved the food here. Had the Bacon and Eggs, Truffle Omelette (this was super duper good!), Bacon and Avo Benedict, Mushroom Bruschetta (super good!!) And the Fried Chicken Waffles. Also ordered a Build Your Own Toastie. And then for dessert, the Lamington and the Chocolate Cake. Not a single dish disappointed. Service was great too! Thank you!
Cute little cafe with delicious food. Chicken and waffle is one of those sweet and savoury meals, you never thought would be a good combo. But it was!
Went for brunch today and all 3 of us ordered fried chicken and waffles and it was absolutely delicious!!! The staff were very welcoming and the service was on point and really fast. Will definitely be back!
What a delicious lunch. Staff were helpful and friendly. The outdoor area was basic but serviceable.
The meal was full of taste despite my mushroom meal being vegan and gluten free. The chef may have removed the allergens but he kept in the taste!
My friend really enjoyed her pumpkin filo pastry.
Prices were also reasonable at $22 and $18.
Petone: Now open Friday and Saturday night for dinner.
We enjoyed our meals, very tasty, service was excellent. This well-known cafe is a usual brunch and lunch place, humming majority of the time.
The chicken and mushroom risotto, the other diner had a burger. Both dishes were well presented and filling.
Lovely Cafe, serving a great range of food and good coffee. The chicken feta philo was a fantastic light meal.
I love their lattes and their heated date scones are the best thing ever. Kids love their chocolate cake too. Meals I've had there are ok, nothing special.... but definitely my coffee and scone stop.
We love coming to Figg, have been coming here for years. Ownership changed hands a couple times but the service and food has always been amazing, regardless. Food presentation is top notch and very tasty.
Called in for a quick coffee and something to eat. Nice atmosphere. Indoor and outdoor seating area really good. Try it next time you're in Petone.
Looking around Petone for a bakery, we ended up stopping in for a look in Café Figg, we were not looking for much to eat and they offered a great little deal for an American hotdog and fries, this combined with Lattes fed us perfectly, and I must add that the coffee with perfect to the point I ordered a second to go.
A favourite wee cafe to visit for brunch! Can be hit and miss to get parking directly out front but Jackson Street has so much to offer that it doesn't matter! It's well worth taking a stroll down Jackson Street to stop here. Fantastic service, delicious coffee and a wide variety of food on offer! Our favourite is the mince on toast with a poached egg. Can't go wrong!
Had steak and seafood chowder on deals. Steak was delicious and look fresh. Friendly and fast service.
Wonderful spot to take a break on Jackson street. Great selection of cabinet food, nice menu and some really unique specials that change often.
The staff are really friendly, made a perfect temperature hot chocolate for my child, has a great little outside seating section at the back too.
Highly recommend this place.
Awesome brunch, great service, excellent coffee
Had dinner there last night - first time it had opened for dinner. Was lovely - food was really nice, good sized portions, variety to eat, and great service.
Thanks for a wonderful evening 😊
Absolutely delicious, me and my partner go here quite often, never a disappointment. Excellent service and great quality food and the don’t skimp on the avocado like some places. My partner knocked his drink over and the staff were so lovely and made him a new one straight away with not complaints . 10/10 in our books, first place we recommended to friends and family.
