What People Say

"If you want the BEST coffee in NZ, go to Monks!"

Reviewers consistently praise the exceptional coffee and friendly service, making it a welcoming spot for breakfast and coffee lovers.

"Came back for the first time in two years, it was just as amazing as I remember. We had the eggs on toast and the lemon waffles with added bacon. The food was delicious and looked amazing. The staff were also very lovely."

"The Ottoman Egg is so spicy… and I can’t taste the Tahini… quite disappointed. In my mouth, it tastes quite a mess. The pasta is good. The Sesame drink is great! Not worth the price."
