Friends Café

Excellent fast friendly service.
Lots of gluten free options

Bit of a wait for coffee in the morning, but coffee is worth it.

Got a selection of treat's but they were only OK.. I know cookies are supposed to be sweet, but taste like they are 95% sugar. Too sickly sweet.

Wonderful service, wonderful people, wonderful coffee.

Second visit at Gana Cafe in Papamoa. The menu and cabinet had selections of an average suburban cafe. We ordered seafood chowder and buttermilk pancakes. Both were of good portion. Pancakes were fluffy and mascarpone was fresh. Seafood chowder had lots of what seemed like a frozen seafood mix (no traces of fish fillets). The chowder was extremely salty so we requested it to be watered down however sadly it made no difference. The chef replied that she adds a "seafood booster", whatever that is... The waitress was friendly and caring.

Disappointing coffee, overpriced menu. Such a shame because I live right around the corner. Every time I 'try again' I always walk away thinking, never again. Service is hit & miss, mostly miss. Food overpriced and less than satisfying.

This place never fails with breakfast, the ladies are really nice, polite and helpful. Food and coffee is on point . thanks Gana cafe.
