Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Fantastic food. Was def. very happy/impressed. Was very tasty, our meat dishes were tasty, and the Naan was beatiful/soft. Ordered the Chicken Tikka Marsala, Lamb Korma, Mushroom/Pea Mutter and a Garlic Naan. Totally recommend!
Thank you chefs/owners : )

Thankful for new day. It brought a bright ‘new day’ feeling to our entire family holiday. We spent a long time contemplating what to have for dinner. Then we settled on New Day Cafe. It was outstanding. The restaurant was busy so the wait was a little long but because of the kindness of the staff, especially the front of house/owner and also relaxed atmosphere the time was not an issue. All our small entrees were yum! It was so very good we took the rest of the family back for lunch the very next day. Again the owner/front of house man was lovely and nothing was too much. All our meals at lunch were delightful, especially the French toast! We will be back when we need another relaxing fix at ‘New Day’. Another note my spicy, chai latte made with coconut milk was the best! Thank you so very much for being a place of respite we needed.

Nice friendly greeting and patience while we decided what we wanted. Food was really good and we were happy with our choices. Took some time to produce but that gave us a chance to head to the supermarket to get some cold drinks for the evening so all good. It was early but there was a steady flow of people coming in to pick up phoned orders. We'd be happy to use them again

We order indian takeout from this place quite often. We've dined in for dinner as well. I haven't tried everything off the menu but I love their "lamb do pyaza". It is so tasty and the meat is always so tender (hence why I always order this one). We usually also order butter chicken, chicken tikka pieces, vegetable samosas, garlic naan and a cheese naan. The first few times we ordered the chicken tikka the meat was tender but for our recent experience the meat was a little dry. The samosas have always been good and not oily which I like. The butter chicken was standard (not saying it wasn't good, it's what you'd expect). The naans were yummy.
I'd gladly eat here or order takeout again. The customer service is also very good and welcoming too.

The food was delicious. We had takeaway two nights in a row and both nights were great. We cleaned our containers and they let us bring them in on the second night to use for our takeaways. Kicking goals on flavour and sustainability! Thanks guys.

Clean, displayed food does not compare to pictures on website.
Food was ok to good, but totally overpriced to what it was.

Thriving cafe, out of the way. Food is prepared and presented with great care and you can taste it. The eggs are soft, the bread fresh and then there are all those little extras that make a meal into an occasion.

The cabinet food was delicious and nicely presented. The chocolate and cherry cake was to die for and the kids loved their icecream. We will definitely go there again when we are next in the area.

I didn't expect to find a cafe/lunch place with such delicious European flavours in an out of the way place as Parua bay, its a real find. Really nice service and really good food.

We had brunch here and it was our first time . Everything was delicious. Friendly, welcoming staff greeted us as soon as were arrived. To start I ordered a savoury scone and my partner had one of their sweet slices. I then had the Mediterranean Seafood Soup and it was delicious, and their was an abundance of seafood too. My partner had their brunch meal off their menu and enjoyed it a lot. The coffee was good and the meals we ordered came out sooner than we expected (they came our before we ate our scone and sweet slice which was great because we were quite hungry). Overall we really liked everything and would gladly visit again.

Very friendly and attentive staff, happy to bespoke our order in terms of taste and diet. Credit card surcharge of 3% so take cash or other bank card. Nice range of seating options. Walls display local art work for sale. Situated in a small shopping area back from the road (reasonable parking), on your left as you travel from Whangarei to the Heads.
