Emily is a very gracious host. Bernies have the best pies and sweet treats you can eat on the North Shore. The Custard Tart I had was awesome. The hot chocolate here is also very yummy.
This is one of the nicest spots on the North Shore. Even comes with a 🌈
Horrible food. We bought two croissants, a muffin and a hash brown. Croissants were stale and sour. It tasted obviously off, who knows how long it’s been on the shelf. The hash brown was so over fried, there was no potato in it. Just a thick layer of fried grease. It’s so obvious that it’s been there for so long and just been fried over again and again. I can not believe even muffin can taste so horrible. It’s old and tastes off, muffin was boarder line mouldy. I literally had horrible vomit afterward. It was such a horrible experience, I will not set foot in this bakery ever again.

I don't usually review bakeries because for the most part they're fairly similar, but my go-to pie--steak & mushroom--was one of the better ones that I've had. The meat was chunky and tender, the gravy was rich and flavoursome...not gelatinous and bland. Will be looking at trying another one when I'm in the area.
I LIKE PIES and both the steak n' cheese and the mince n' cheese here were DIVINE! I'm gutted that Aussie pies are not as good as this 😢 I love pies... we purchased from these guys, took home and froze the pies to consume later (a big NOT TO DO) and yet after 2-3 days when we warmed in oven it was still AMAZING. I wish I had time in NZ to try every flavour pie from here. Highly recommended, do yourself a favour and check it out (did I mention I love pies 🤤)!
Delicious pies and other sweet things, reasonable price and right next to the beach for a great view.

Steak and Mushroom Pie
Such a nice cafe shop! I come here very often with my family. The mushroom pie is awesome. And I do love their coffee. I would like say they have the best coffee in Browns Bay.
