Perfect place to grab lunch and catch up with friends.
A bowl of chips and hot chocolate is a favourite for me and my friends. I can't comment on the other foods and drinks available, but the fact chips and hot chocolate is ordered everytime for us, obviously implies they taste amazing (literally best chips ever) and is a must try!
Service is average and seating inside and outside is alright. Overall, Columbus Coffee at Smales Farm is good.
Recommendations: Sharing a bowl of chips between 3-4 people for lunch is awesome.
Just your usual cafe for on the run.
I always appreciate the classic Bennie... and coffee catchups. Regardless of everything they maintain a good hygiene level which I am very grateful for.
Reasonable prices.
I only come here now and again with a friend from out of town although I live extremely close but have found the food I order to be OK. Price wise can be expensive.
I have been there many times and have had no problems. I usually go with my ex-neighbour who comes up from Morrisville wen visiting Auckland.
Chips were fantastic, very flavourful and cheap for a big bowl! Lemon pepper made them addicting! Coffees a little over priced and shouldn't have as much ice in it though.
WOW what a FAB cafe!!
Congrats to Jason and Sarah for hiring friendly helpful and pleasant staff.
The food is fantastic and I love the introduction of your take away meals.
The lamb shanks and "tatty mash" last week went down a treat with the family.
Absolutely by far the very best hot chocolates ever are made here!!
Really fab atmosphere and a real asset to the Smales Farm area
I like this place on a sunny Sunday morning. There are wooden foldback-bifold french doors all the way along, letting the sun flood in.
The morning-sun end of this huge place is set a good 10 metres back from the traffic, so on a Sunday morning, it just makes for a bit of pleasant 'watching the world go by'.
My smoked salmon magro (was it called a 'magro'?) was very yummy. An inch and a half wide, and not quite a foot long, it was spread with subtle amounts of cream cheese - perfect, and dotted with the odd caper inside.
I saw a couple of cheery staff members offering great customer service to the couple in front of me (free coffee cards, as something had gone wrong), and I was impressed! But then a different young lady who served me was quite abrupt in her manner when I suddenly changed my order from take-out to eat in (they hadn't bagged it yet, it was still heating). That young lady just needs to get some candyfloss into her smile ;)
Best soy flat whites & soy mocha's ever , their coffee is always consistently good. For amazing coffee check this place out, ask for Paige as she is the best by far in Auckland. I also noticed they have alot of gluten free product available onsite. A+ team.
Love this Columbus.
Always find staff are helpful and the place is clean.
I hate dirty tables when it's quiet and they should have been cleared.
Coffee is always consistently delish.
We went here the other day for lunch, using a voucher. Staff were friendly, the place was tidy, and had a nice atmosphere. Between our table, we ordered coffee, a caesar salad, french toast, corn fritters and a BLAT, along with the side of fries. The coffee was promptly served, and was done perfectly. The food was very tasty, although the french toast could have been a bit bigger, along with the salad, so it was a good thing we ordered the fries. I hope they didn't give smaller portions because we were using the vouchers... All in all, I would come back here. Good coffee, good food, good service.
I usually get a frappe as they don't make it overly sweet, and is reasonably priced. I can't comment on the food as I haven't tried it, but always looks fresh in the display near counter. Nice atmosphere, and plenty of seating available.
We stopped here for lunch today and we were in a rush. The staff were accommodating and when we said we were in a hurry pulled out all the stops. I ordered the lunch special, and my colleague had a Chicken Panini with Salad. The coffee arrived as we sat down and the food followed soon after.We will definitely return.
Went to Columbus Coffee at Smales Farm this morning and I will definitely be going back. Great service,food and coffee. I had the Big breakfast and a latte just perfect. Ample portions and the coffee was delivered to the table promptly. A great way to start my working week. Keep up the great work.
Been to this Columbus cafe twice in recent months, a good friend has an office at Smales Farm.
First of all the location is great, lots of space, indoor and outdoor seating with lots of natural sunlight, good quality design and furniture, creating a happy, comfortable space.
Lots of selection, I opted for a bowl of pea and ham soup with hot buttered toast $8.50 and certainly lovely and plentiful enough for my lunch.
You might expect the coffee to be good from a cafe that has its own blend and it was. Recommended for anyone that like a decent cup of coffee and fresh food quickly prepared - Great place for those who work or live close by.
Great coffee.. I love the place so much. So convenient. The places also located in strategic place. Great coffee with sugar available on the table. The waitress is so kind. The price is affordable. Pleasant experience.
The biggest Columbus Coffee outlet I have ever seen in Auckland. Has plenty of indoor and outdoor place and is mostly busy. Have so many options for breakfast and lunch or even brunch. Great place for office meeting or group lunch and a casual catch up.
Enjoy this cafe especially in this area. Love the environment, businessman, students,housewives......

Wow! Coffee is good: especially the flat white & Mocha. Always love the friendly staff. Thank you Max & friends. Appreciate the care & kindness. As you can tell, we loved the food. Group of 10 had a beautiful breakfast today.
Good place for a casual coffee or breakfast. lots of seating. Friendly staff. Caffeine & classics takes place last sunday every month in car park near them. They cope well with the large crowds who come in.
Nice food, came for brunch with the family. Wait times aren't as long as other places.
Wouldn't recommend the ice chocolate though but other than that, the table of 8 had 0 complaints.
A large coffee shop and eatery offering a wide range of food options. The staff is good and efficient. The place can be busy in lunch hours and queues can be there. Food and beverage quality is good. Outdoor seating is available too. Parking can be an issue since it is limited in numbers. Overall a good one.
This is a great cafe with excellent food and service - a convenient meeting place for friends and colleagues. However, I won't be meeting there again due to several parking tickets. Don't take more than 90 minutes to confer with your colleagues - the parking attendant is very zealous!
Frappe was delicious and the food was good and quick to come out.
Not bad. Don't like how the food in the cabinet is not priced. Its like you can afford to come here, we don't need to tell you what it costs.
Great coffeehouse, they have lots of seating inside and outside the venue. Big variety of coffee's, iced products etc.
They have a very big selection of eats and you can order food to eat on the premises.
Very friendly staff and extremely helpful.
We go there often and will definitely recommend it to future customers
Good food selection. Indoor or outdoor seating and free parking (get a ticket from the counter if you need more than 1 hour). They do combo deals which are great value and the coffee is always great.
Lovely atmosphere and a great range of options
