"this is one of my favourite cafes in tauranga these days. the food is yummy, with the cabinet selection always looking so good (plus not everything is stuffed with onion which i appreciate). the iced mocha literally comes with a mini magnum ice cream, so good! the staff are lovely too which makes it even better. underrated for sure."

"I'm really disappointed with my experience here. The meal was tiny, and for just $2 more, I could have had a buffet at my hotel. The portion of eggs was small, and the portobello mushroom was the size of a tablespoon. The food quality was like something you'd get at a Bakehouse or similar place. I used to come here years ago, and it seems like the owners have changed. There was very little customer service, the coffee was only mildly warm, and I wasn't even offered a glass of water 😂 my experience was so off, I felt complied to write a review."

"I asked what was in a purple smoothie and wasn't sure I would like it. The owner said she'll make it and if I dont like it she'll make me something else, free of charge. And that's exactly what happened. Amazing service, amazing food. Will be back"

Tauranga – Travel with Smudge
Me & You (58 First Ave, Tauranga) As Cafe 88‘s sister cafe, I was pretty excited when Mum suggested we head there for brunch. If it was half as good as Cafe 88, I was pretty sure that I would still enjoy myself. The place was absolutely packed, but we somehow managed to squeeze a table…
