Friendly, welcoming staff. Prompt service the Tuesday morning we last visited. Clean with modern decor. Plenty of parking both on the road and in the cafés own car park area. Sunny outdoor area to sit on although it catches the Southerly so plan to be inside when the weather is coming from down country?
This cafe has no competition in the vicinity! Situated on Barrett Road, The Backyard Cafe is loved by local residents and those who know their secret location. I have ordered duck croquettes with fennel and mandarin salad, wasabi mayo on a side. The dish was very elegant! Like a perfect affair, it was enough to tame the appetite but not enough to get bored. My husband had ordered their breakfast, which was also light, but nutritious. Extra points for a superb coffee: truly hot in those cool winter days. #duckcroquettes #lunch #cafe #taranaki
Very nice food and coffee, definitely recommend
Catered for coeliacs so I was really happy about that, you just have say that you are coeliac when you order.. Staff were very happy and helpful.. The food was great
Was on a Motorcycle Rally, the Organisers of the rally set up lunch at the Backyard Cafe. The best Fish and Chips I've had, next time in the area will come back here.
Perhaps the best eggs Benedict I've ever had. And the Dragonfruit slushy was incredible. Nice to be to sitting outside. Good shelter from a scorching Taranaki afternoon. Sitting in the Frontyard of Backyard was very enjoyable...
Holiday weekend short staff one server long wait for food otherwise reasonable. Poor girl run off her feet
Popped in for brunch, great staff attitude and atmosphere! Food was 8/10 and reasonably priced, would come back again 😃
Very very very very good food and service. Dude in the kitchen is the Walter White of breakfast's. Front of house is very personable and caring for her patrons. Highly reccomend the 2nd mortgage, try with salmon and bacon. Smoky beans where terrific. Keep up the good work you absolute stellar legends
Nice environment, respectful staff and a amazing coffee. Thanks guys. You made my morning.
Friendly welcoming staff. Great food. Epic iced tea. Lovely environment. Modern and clean
The food was delicious, the service was great and, as we took our dogs, they offered a water bowl. We’ll definitely be going back. We’ve recently moved to the area and we’re very pleased to have discovered this gem, within walking distance of our home.
Lovely brunch here, nice big carpark and easy to find. Super quick and friendly service. Let me have half a serving of eggs Benedict which was much appreciated. Food did not disappoint ⭐️
Very friendly staff, nice coffee and tasty sweets and savories. Cafe was very light and tidy
Awesome friendly and accomodating staff. Wonderful atmosphere and the coffee and food was amazing. Thanks to all the staff that worked today (Easter Sunday).
Had a great brunch, staff great and food fantastic.
Nice cafe with good ambience and decent variety of food choices
The big breakfast was good and also the eggs bene was too, ciabatta was a little too on the crunchy side but other than that good place to go 👌🏼
