Great service, lovely staff and yummy food. A really great option if you’re looking for a menu the kids will like. And they even do half portions! Highly recommend this cafe for families �
Wow what a change. Very inviting and attentive staff. The eggs benedict are to die for. In house cured salmon bagel was so tasty and the new recipe for the hot chocolate is yummy. Love the new decor. The whole cafe is much more welcoming. Recommend a visit.
I'll go a long way for a good Allpress coffee... but I'm lucky to work around the corner from Gala, one of the best cafes in Auckland.
Gala cafe rocks my world!!
Awesome food and great coffee made by beautiful staff that care.
The head chef is passionate about food, and this shows in his presentation and flavors.
Go and enjoy!
Great cafe in the Mt Eden-Normanby business district. Excellent coffee and food, friendly staff. Thanks for not charging extra for soy!
Breakfasts are really great and the coffee exceptional.

Went to Sunday brunch here where should I begin. We were the only ones there so we weren't sure if it was even open but once inside the staff were super friendly and inviting. The building was very open with a high ceiling and cute decor.
The food was amazing, I ordered the French toast and my partner ordered the gala big breakfast, portion size is excellent and the price is slightly less in comparison to other cafes in the area. The French toast left me speechless as I was shoveling food into my mouth the whole time I have never had a better French toast. It could probably do with a bit more bacon but I just love bacon. The big breakfast in my partners word was "very tasty and well seasoned" when I asked him if he would change anything he said maybe having a different type of bread instead of toast but he obviously missed on the menu that you can choose what type of bread you want with multiple options including gluten free.
The drinks we had were a creaming soda thick shake and an iced chocolate which were both above our expectations and I shall be returning for at least another thick shake.
Overall I'm so glad I found this cute little hidden cafe and now that know it's around the corner from my house I shall be visiting regularly. 10/10
It was my second time buying an Iced Chocolate instead of my regular Hot Chocolate, but I must say buying the Iced chocolate couldn't have been better because it was ultra hot outside and didn't feel like drinking something warm.
The staff over are just so kind and friendly, bright smiles pretty much filled up the room and the waiting time on the iced choc. wasn't even that long either.
Step inside and it feels like you're in the future. Maybe it's because the primary colour inside the cafe is white. The chairs look fancy though and there is this big board on the wall. At first I thought it was just part of the picture and looking closer it was actually the menu, very awkward indeed hahaha. Anyways, a great cafe though.
The service of the wait staff are exceptional. Extremely friendly and caring.
Went in with baby, and the staff started wiping down the baby stool with care. Thought out the course cheery and happy. Bringing light to our morning day.

A nice place. Great staff, and service. Coffee is All Press so is pretty good and locally roasted, double shot standard which is as it should be. Will definitely be back.
Great menu and pleasant and attentive staff meant a recent birthday brunch was most enjoyable. The food is fresh and inviting with a large selection to cater for all tastes. The Reuben sandwich was full of flavour and the Fish and Chips were beautifully presented with crispy batter and hot crunchy chips. Good coffee too. Worth a visit!!
Forget the burbs, head to the city. Nestled in Mt Eden, a stone throw away from the city Centre, this is a fantastic cafe with a lively atmosphere. It has an extensive yet simple and we'll delivered menu with a great selection of drinks and cabinet cakes and slices. The personal touch was the owner asking how our meals were and how he could improve it. He even made us milo with condensed milk on request! Well worth the trip to enjoy this wonderful experience!
It's a really nice place..
We didn't hear about this cafe before, even we live in Downtown, so it's pretty close to our place.
Until now - 2 things I've tried here were - Steak Sandwich(medium rare) and Tokio Lunchbox, also I had a chance to taste 'North Indian Eggs' how they called and I was really surprised.
Steak was one of the best I've had in Auckland, it was really delicious and juicy.
Special recipe for Masala Eggs was excellent as well, i didn't know it could be so delicious!
Good atmosphere, very friendly staff!
Me and my girlfriend enjoyed our food and coffee here as well.
Hope to come here soon again and more often.
Clean fresh decor and a busy vibe greeted us as we were shown to our table by an attentive waiter.
All press coffee masterfully prepared was brought to the table quickly and we settled in to the difficult task of trying to decide what to order from the breakfast menu.
My partner chose the poached eggs and I the north Indian eggs (mother inlaws recipe) with a side of gravlax and one of portabello mushrooms.
The poached eggs were faultless and the Indian twist to mine was devine, the gravlax just right and the mushrooms perfectly cooked.
We don't often indulge in two coffees but they were so good we did and with an afghan biscuit.
The most expensive item on the breakfast menue was eggs bennie at $18 making a meal here exceptional value for money.
We can't wait to come back.
Great menu, filled with options that scream 'flavour'! I chose the "Gala Spa Salad" which included generous amounts of tender Steamed Chicken, with Green Tea Noodles, and Cress with loads of Dressing, and they'd run out of one ingredient, so thoughtfully replaced it with beetroot and ginger.
The food left me feeling healthy and invigorated.
The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating to our requests. My 3 year old enjoyed her side of salmon, and a banana! It's not really the place to bring children though, I have to say.
Easy parking in the weekends was a bonus.
Our regular family breakfast location!!
A hidden gem and well worth a visit. The staff are friendly and helpful, the meals are well priced, presented beautifully, and arrive in a timely manner.
There is indoor and outdoor seating available, with running water in the background.
A must visit cafe and in our opinion 5 stars is not enough!
Went back after several months away as got very sick of the same menu being served every day for YEARS! Was pleasantly surprised. Now under new management the place is humming, the coffee is great and the cabinet food options have been extended. My only disappointment was that the breakfast menu has not changed much...although an all day breakfast has been added and a couple of things deleted from the menu. Someone needs to garner the strength to climb up and revamp that menu board hanging high on the wall! I'll be back...
Good coffee, friendly staff. Always welcome with a smile. Food is excellent quality. Love the bistro salad, bacon and eggs. Recommended for breakfast and or lunch. A++
Nice coffee, but with the concrete floors, metal furniture and open plan layout it's quite noisy and hard to be heard when busy.
Excellent cuisine. Excellent size portions and service. Highly recommend this Cafe Thank you very much weldone Cafe Gala
Good service. Small peak hour delay. Clean. Substantial portions. Clean. Price competitive. Great omelette with filler options.
Many healthy options which are great for lunch. The cafe has mainly small table for 2 to 4 people with a few sofa chairs as well.
Excellent coffee, excellent staff. Got me hooked on their almond flat whites - I'm there 5 days a week!
Good coffee catering to my specs. Vietnamese roll is very addictive 😉👌
Lots of hype, metro cafe of the year... I was I'm afraid a little underwhelmed. Loved the decor, but the food wasn't amazing. Just good. But more expensive than most...
Really good food and the cashier was patient (because I was indecisive) and recommended the fried rice and dumplings... hummm really yammyyy. Defined recommend...
Thoroughly enjoyed their toasted chicken toasties! Not to mention their coffee :)
Nice café! Try the Eggs Benedict if you haven't already. With mushrooms, bacon or salmon.
Liked the service and the coffee.
Also they have a newspaper to read, not many cafes do that anymore.
Great cafe with many lunch time food options to choose from :)
Always love coming here. Best value and high quality food in Mt Eden
