Atmosphere was good
Sadly, service after order and hard poached eggs let them down. I ordered egg benny and bacon, they brought me corn fritters and bacon. Counter staff and then The chef came out saying I didn't order eggs benny. When Benny's arrived eggs were hard

I remember this cafe so well many years ago, so I thought I'd pop back in.
Spent $7.50 on an Iced Chocolate the other day only to be served in a medium sized coffee cup without the cream.
Since when the heck did you guys become to tight!
I was beyond shocked, how can you justify the damn price. Yes, I get prices have gone up. But really??? C'mon.
The two young girls that served me were rather ignorant to the fact I felt ripped off.
I'm sorry, but I will not be returning on my next visit to Gisborne which is a crying shame given how well I remember this place.

Great clean and inviting place for a coffee and bite to eat.
Sadly no scones here, was told they are a bit old fashioned 🫠. I love scones and find most cafes sell them. However the coffee was hot . Plenty of tables to sit and thd staff were friendly.

We came to Verve to get a bit of lunch. I got the mushrooms on toast and my kids got the beef burgers. I enjoyed the mushrooms on toast and I think the kids enjoyed the burgers as well. We all got the banana chai cold drinks and they were SOO good! Would definitely come back!
My auntie always takes me to this cafe when I come to visit gizzy . The coffee and food is very taste and comes at a reasonable price. The breakfast food there is super tasty and fresh . Would highly recommend

Took family for Sunday Breakfast. Ordered eggs Benedict and got served hasbrowns with hard eggs and no Spinach! Asked for new runny eggs and Spinach. Got Spinach on small dish while still waiting for eggs.Got eggs back less hashbrowns on plate. Got no apology just attitude and dirty look. Husband had to ask where his breakfast was as they forgot it. Creamy mushrooms on toast. When got it toast was soggy. Again no apology. Daughter's breakie was nice French toast. Spent over $80 for terrible service and below average food. An apology and acknowledgement goes a long way for good customer service. Then to top off staff walking around eating in the kitchen area in full view. Probably eating my hashbrowns and hard eggs 😄

The experience at Verve was amazing, all 3 meals were loved, the service was outstanding and the atmosphere was a good as it could have been considering the extremely high temperature - it was not overly noisy either which was great!
