4 months agoNestled in between car mechanics and panel beaters is Coffee Lane, where you’ll find Excelso Coffee. Excelso is an oasis in the semi-industrial desert of this area. It’s only a five-minute walk from the heart of the city–but it might as well be a world away. They’re one of the originals in the Tauranga coffee scene, with an incredible reputation of producing fantastic coffee and excellent baristas. The vibrant green of the indoor plants on the wall contrast nicely with the corkboard panelling and polished concrete floors to create an inviting space that encourages you to sit, talk, and relax. From the right spot in the cafe, you can see the roastery in action. You’ll get lost in the meditative movement, sound, and smell of the roasting process. Coupled with the buzz of conversation, you quickly realize you’re not just drinking a cup of coffee, but really experiencing something more. Excelso has a big range of coffee on offer, with at least nine different options available for espresso, filter, batch brew, or to bag up and take away. Pair that with a great selection of sweet treats, toasted sandwiches, and smoothies on offer, you’ll be absolutely spoilt for choice. Excelso is also an absolutely amazing place to sit, chill, drink a coffee and listen to your favourite podcast. The Aunty Donna Podcast is my favourite one to listen to - with Broden, Mark and Zach, and sometimes some guests, they really hope you enjoy the podcast. People will look at your weird, cos you'll be laughing ALL THE TIME. 5 stars.

4 months agoOrdered long black and oat mocha and these were served - everything just tasted bland, probably wasn’t extracted properly. My oat mocha tastes like warm milk with a dash of chocolate. Disappointed as other reviews appeared to have delicious coffee, perhaps its barista dependent, won’t return

4 months agoIf you like light roast coffee with more acidity, this is the right place for you. Local roasted coffee is really great. You can take there something small to eat too. Really great place with delicious coffee.
