"Amazing coffee and latte, nice food, excellent service and very friendly staff, reasonable price in the central of Auckland. Excuse the empty glasses. I didn’t mean to write a review so no before photos. We had to order second drinks and food. Bagel with salmon was very delicious. It would’ve been more stars but 5 is max."

"Espresso Workshop Britomart in Auckland is a little gem in the heart of the city, perfect for a quick coffee or bite to eat. Their coffee is exceptional—rich, smooth, and expertly brewed. Whether you’re after a flat white or something stronger, they deliver every time. If you’re a coffee enthusiast, you’ll appreciate their single-origin options, which add a bit of variety to the usual lineup. The food menu may be simple, but it’s all about quality. Their toasties are the real standout—crispy on the outside, packed with delicious fillings, and toasted to perfection. With a range of options, from classic cheese to more creative flavors, there’s something for everyone. Pair one with your coffee, and you’ve got yourself a perfect little meal. The space itself is cozy, with limited indoor seating, but they’ve made good use of the area with a few extra spots in what feels like a semi-outdoor space inside the building. It’s not the place to linger for hours, but it’s ideal for a quick stop. If you’re in the Britomart area, Espresso Workshop is definitely worth a visit for great coffee, tasty toasties, and a laid-back vibe that’s perfect for a break."
