Hi Guys,

I brought my workers in for a meal after i shouted them a movie. We were disappointed in the quality of the food.

We spent well over $200 for four of us, which isnt bad but we waited over an hour. The curry was more tomato paste and the chicken was really dry, the pork, ive had more joy out of a rash of bacon, and the potatoes on the side tasted like they were from the day before.

The highlights… The staff. The front of house lady was warm and welcoming. The wine was spectacular and the ambiance was great. The stuffed chicken breast was fantastic and if someone asked me to reccomend a dish it would be that. Again tho the potato tasted like it was the day before’s prep.

I think the disappointing thing for us was we weren’t satisfied and went to Mc Donalds afterwards. Im not one to complain, in fact i never do but it was suggested i let you know.

Good to see it open again after renovations. Great ambiance, relaxed and friendly. Have tried it twice, on my birthday with family and on a girls night out. Great service, friendly staff, delicious food and the best coffee I’ve had in a long time. Love the old movie-posters on the walls. Keep up the good work!

We discovered cafe cinema on our first trip to New Zealand and adored it. On our next visit it was a large contributory factor to our spending several days in Keri Keri.The atmosphere is wonderful and the food superb. Can’t wait to go back.

Went to this restaurant in Nov 2007, was the best one on our North Island trip. Great atmosphere, great menu choice and magnificent food, very reasonably priced. Attentive , courteous staff. Can’t believe no one has reviewed or raved about this place, just wonderful. Venison to die for, and deserts all mouth wateringly delicious.
