Columbus Coffee - Flat Bush New Zealand

You would think that one Columbus is the same as another but there are good bad depending on who runs them. This is a good one.Located near Mitre 10 Mega, there is a large amount of seating so it's good for big groups too. Service was okay polite efficient but missing that friendly banter you look for in a local.I tried the Paleo breakfast swapping the salmon for bacon a latte. The coffee was good. Breakfast was nice all elements were good. Only missing the cress which would have really brought the dish alive.

I've come here a lot over the years and have always enjoyed the coffee, today's latte was no exception. My daughter declared that the chocolate brownie was the best and most fudgy brownie she's had in a long while. She was offered the choice of whipped cream or yoghurt and took the cream. One moment there was a plate full of brownie and cream, the next moment an empty plate.<br/ <br/ I took the spinach and cream cheese muffin and liked that it was heated through just enough without any spoiling of the texture as can happen elsewhere. <br/ <br/ The cafe is spacious, clean and the decor welcoming. The staff were clearing the tables quickly. The free wifi is through Zenbu which requires a login. Cafe has instrumental music playing in background.<br/ <br/ For the younger set there are two wooden highchairs and a basket of soft toys which looked freshly laundered.

Great food and atmosphere. The manager is so friendly. Lots of space for prams. We've been here a couple of times with the whole family for lunch. Second time we were so impressed with food. It's improved markedly and the menu is fresh. We'll be regulars :

I just happened to see this place as I was leaving Mitre 10. What a nice little spot. I only planned to order a coffee but saw they have chowder on the menu, so I gave it a try. It was delicious as well as the coffee. I'll be back to give the other food a try. The cabinet food looked delicious too.

The food is so good! And the ambiance as well. Very clean and fresh
