Quick bite on off chance. Mistake quickly rectified and happy with result. Cabinet food varied and nice. Croissant and scone. Would return when have more time.
Went there today for the first time and absolutely loved the food. We had a Cajun sandwich. The coffee was delicious and the service is top notch. Thank you!
For Papakura this place is pretty niche, I would have never expected Papakura town centre to have a cafe that offers, raw paleo whole foods and some really scrumptious options and excellent coffee. This is something out of Mt Eden village or Remuera, but does Remuera even have a place like this?? Definitely bringing good food closer to home.
Gorgeous cafe, lovely friendly staff and the tumeric latte was divine!! I came after being told that the tumeric is grown fresh and I wasn't disappointed! Paleo desserts galore, a clean rustic atmosphere. Thanks Corrina for your great service, we will definitely be back
Good service, nice coffee and an impressive range of healthy food options. Lots of seating options, but could do with a canopy or window tinting as the front tables get so hot when the sun is out.
A friend & I stopped in for lunch. He had a steak sandwich whereas I had an egg burger. Both meals came with fries.
In honesty the prices were a little high but the food was excellent. Service was a little confusing as I'd expected to be given an order flag however our order was correct and delivered to the correct place.
Perhaps my biggest gripe was that my hot chocolate was 50% foam.
Definitely worth a second visit... Next time I'm going to try that steak sandwich.
Had breakfast here yesterday with the hubby and it instantly became one of our favourite spots! We are doing sugar-free year so the cakes made from raw ingredients is perfect!!!! Definitely a must to visit!
Great meal tonight.. we had a beef burger and chicken burger.. followed by a mixed berry cheesecake and a beetroot cheesecake with chai latte.. food had great flavour.. beetroot cheesecake was unexpectedly delicious.. the atmosphere is laid back almost old school ponsonby feel about it.. staff are friendly and not bad to look at either.
Best place in Papakura for coffee or if you're just feeling peckish for something that wont throw your waistline completely in the deep end! Pleasant service and their Friday night burgers are too good to refuse. Really love the fact they use bio plant-based takeaway utensils! ✌
Food was amazing, fresh and tasty :) Friendly staff, awesome for allergy options 👍🏻 we had the creamy mushrooms, eggs benny with bacon and kids pancakes :) Good coffee!
Love this cafe because it's full of guilt free healthy treats. Staff are so friendly and the omelettes are always so fluffy and delicious. The cheese and lambo burgers are my favourites.
This place has a raw & rustic appeal. Staff were ok.This place is good for the community of Papakura that serves gourmet burgers, something different. Good selection of burgers , teas and a few desserts. A but pricey for a burger $14, but being the only one in town that sells a good burger. Wouldn't mind to pay for that price. Would come back again for the slices 🍰
My most favourite cafe ever! Food is amazing, coffee great, owners great and staff excellent! Don't miss the chance of experiencing this amazing cafe!
Love Canopius and their cool little cafe. The food is enticing and healthy and makes for a great alternative to the abundance of fast food rubbish available in Papakura.
Love this cafe. They have the best coffee in Papakura by a long shot, living in Karaka where there are no good coffee options in a 10k radius this place has been a god sent for us. They even let us have their food scraps for my pig!
Visited here as working in the area now - I think this will become my new local. They have great treats for those on special diets - vegan, raw etc. Good coffee too.
Canopius is AMAZING! Great service, and fantastic food. I LOVE being able to go somewhere and have a really good hot drink with almond milk. Their quinoa porridge is off the charts awesome, I have been to this cafe at lunchtime and ordered porridge because it was just so yum. They cater really well for people who are gluten free or have allergies, but the food is great for people who don't have issues too. SO worth a visit.

Have eaten here many times with friends. Canopius is a relatively new cafe to Papakura. Fantastic to see a cafe that cares about ingredients - free range, dairy & gluten free options (including cakes), paleo & primal. Great not only for those who have allergies, but those who don't want to eat rubbish. Items are maybe a little more expensive than the average cafe, but that stands to reason when you think of the ingredients used.
Service is good. It's a smallish cafe, but they are friendly & work to clear any queue on busy days.
Coffee is good - they provide coconut sugar on the tables instead of refined sugar.
Good range of prepared & menu items, also a nice range of smoothies.
Today I ordered the omelette ($14) with a side of bacon ($3). It is a good sized portion with a piece of toast & guacamole. The omelette has onion, tomato & spinach with Gouda. I love this dish, but there can sometimes be way too much onion as there was today. It would be good it this was reduced as it can be overpowering. The bacon could have been crispier with the fat more rendered but I know they would be happy to do this if I ask next time.
Well worth a try next time you are in Papakura.
Great coffee, a great range of delicious food, good service & nice relaxed atmosphere. Overall its nice to have a cafe like this in papakura... I will definitely go back!
Wow what a nice change, good healthy, whole food full of flavors. All served by friendly staff in friendly atmosphere. Loved it and will definitely be returning
Really happy to know there's a local 'real food' Cafe I can go to and not dread taking my son to for fear of him not having anything real to choose from. Prices were great, food was delicious. Loved my cocomo!
Awesome cafe. Coffees there are the nicest coffees I have ever had.
The food is very healthy and delicious too and I cannot understand why people are complaining that the food is not sweet enough. The deserts and cakes and slices are definitely sweet enough.
Definitely a cafe that my family and I will visit regularly.
Well who knew papakura had finally come into the 21st century. Coconut milk mocha was a god send on a hard Sunday morning. Light and silky it went down a treat. Cabinet food looked amazing and it was good to see clearly labeled gluten and dairy free options. There was even a paleo option!!! Exposed Industrial decor was also a fresh change for papakura. I do chuckle at all the above reviews moaning about not having soy cause a true clean eating cafe most likely won't stock soy cause soy is pretty bad for you. Keep up the good work.
For the first time. I drink a wonderful cafe moccacino. Amazing caffe and food.
I was recommended to visit here and drink, eat in this place.

Nice little cafe. Feels like you're stepping out of papakura and into ponsonby or something. The Cocomo (mocha with coconut milk) is too die for! Food was OK but that is just my food taste. Presentation and service was great. Brought the raspberry chocolate brownie to eat later & I looooved it!
Seriously. Omg. On my never ending quest for gluten free foods (I have Coeliac Disease) I was recommended to come here and I was not let down. A crap load of their food is gluten free, and as the super friendly staff member explained, their whole philosophy is based around clean eating. I didn't even pretend I was buying for multiple people when I ordered several items from their cabinet. Seriously. Go here. Food was so good and they made a mean coffee. Thank you!
Great coffee and wonderful service in this beautifully restored, high-ambience cafe. The food looked good, and I'll certainly try that out next time. This place is a real gem for Papakura.

Mid-afternoon and traveling through town, I was feeling a bit peckish but thought I'd probably be hard pushed to find something decent to eat. I needn't have worried - Canopius is handily positioned on the main street and has generous opening hours. The interior has an industrial yet warm feel, using a lot of retro fitting to create a cosy vibe. With a focus on providing allergen-free whole foods, I was impressed with how many options were still available in their cabinet.
I decided to order their dairy-free carrot cake with coconut and maple frosting and one of their famous CoCoMos - a mocha with coconut milk. The carrot cake was fantastic - delightful and moist with loads of flavour. The frosting wasn't overly sweet, which I found quite pleasant. The CoCoMo was very interesting- as a usual soy milk drinker, I can tell you that it is NOT the same taste. I enjoyed it very much though, the coffee was roasted and treated well to create a mellow blend.
The ambience was delightful - if dining by myself I'll often whip out headphones but the music mix was so good I didn't feel it was necessary. The only thing I felt it lacked were a couple of comfy arm chairs that you could really sink yourself into - all seating in the cafe is either wood and/or metal. The service was friendly without being in your face. I'd definitely recommend this place to those who struggle to find "free from" allergen options or those who are looking for a refined-sugar-free treat. We'll definitely be back.

Pretty excited about this place. I'd driven past numerous times and always thought it looked look an awesome place and I finally stopped in today. So glad I did.
Was delighted to see a cabinet with vegan gluten free delights (if only this place were around when I was vegan!)
I got myself mushrooms on toast which was awesome. The big chunky cuts of mushroom were a delight as was the delicious hint of
whole mustard. Creamy but not sickly. Toast was a lovely grainy sourdough which just topped the whole thing off.
Coffee was so so but I'll be back to see if they pick up their coffee game and I will without a doubt be back to try the coconut cheesecake and their chocolate tart.
I've been here on multiple occasions now and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Canopious. It's so great that everything is healthier and so tasty. The prices are very reasonable and the quality of food is great. Great flavours and the service was lovely
Delicious interesting dishes that we're beautifully plated. Vegan options. Their vegan "cheesecake" was delicious!
Vegan mushroom lentil burger and raw cheesecake, yes yes yes! These guys are always friendly, accommodating and delicious, the food not the staff, although that guy at the counter... 😉
I stop here whenever I can. The vegan muffins hooked me and the coffee keeps me coming back. Thank you Canopius 😄✌
We went to its night time incarnation as a burger bar, as opposed to the day time version of a Cafe.
As far as a burger bar goes, was very nice - if you're hungering for greens in your burger you'll need to choose carefully, but for all that they seem to be high quality and taste great.
Side of fries could have served the two of us, although getting as the combo with a beer made better value
Great coffee, with very tasty and we'll presented food, and good service. You can't really ask for more! Will definitely be back to try other items on the menu
Food is fresh and the food good I do wish they had buffalo milk more frequently because it is really yummy in my coffee
Some months later food is still yummy and still worth 4 stars
Absolutely Delightful Experience. Food was perfect and customer service outstanding. Wow !
Loved the food here. The burgers and chips meal was amazing.
4 of us had morning tea here last Saturday. We each had different muffins which were delicious. I had the blueberry and Walnut - the BEST MUFFIN I've had at a cafe!! Not made with the usual commercial flour mix and you could taste the difference. So fresh, light and tasty with lots of blueberries and walnuts. The others said theirs were delicious too.
The green teas and coffee were good too. With the Turmeric Latte was one of the best ever had.
Plenty of food options for all diets and tastes here, with a clear key for dietary requirements. Enjoyed bacon and eggs on toast and a well made long black from here, though the gluten free bread my partner had with his was quite small for the extra cost. Friendly and helpful service, the wait for food was slightly long but they didn't seem to have many staff working. Overall an enjoyable breakfast, top choice for a daytime meal in Papakura.
I ordered the Big breakfast and was pleasantly surprised. The portion size was good, and the presentation and taste completed the meal nicely. I am a fussy eater, and always look for these things when I eat out. Well done guys.
Nice cozy atmosphere that has streetside dining as well. Great breakfasts and friendly helpful staff. The only reason this is not a 5☆ review is because they forgot our coffee until after our food. Otherwise, highly recommend
Hidden gem! I ordered poached eggs on toast. It was cooked perfectly to my taste service was great and I ordered a cappuccino. Rate my photos and just let me say this is a styley friendly cool place with great food and service. TRY it out! 😉
