a week agoI had a wonderful lunch of vege fritata and salad. This was a good size and with extras including seeds, chutney, and a lovely fresh salad. Thank you and I wish I lived closer as this would be a favourite place to visit. I also enjoyed the beautiful gift shop. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

a month agoThat was a disappointing Eggs Benedict. The eggs were near hard boiled. The Cafe is in need of a good clean.

a year agoMixture Cafe used to be our favourite for the amazing cabinet selection - these days, Pacifica beats it easily. There’s always something different (today, it’s coconut rice salad with salmon, capers, and avocado) - and why not have an apple muffin with custard and caramel - the people working here are excellent, too. This is the best cafe in Papamoa and also the greater Mt Maunganui area. Things have changed in the last year or two and there have been definite improvements at Pacifica, so if it’s been a while since you’ve been, go again…

a year agoWow, what a superb place to have a lunch on a beautiful autumn day. Seating inside or outside among the many lovely plants. So much effort is put into making the place look stunning.
