Visited the Scarecrow in search of something different from the standard hotel breakfasts. A nice relaxed atmosphere and a good range of breakfast options unless your looking for bacon in which case you might be slightly disappointed. So good that we visited two days running, The baked eggs in a spicy tomato sauce were really good as were the poached eggs on sourdough toast.

I went to Scarecrow for my first meal in Auckland: late breakfast on a Sunday. I ordered the roasted stone fruits with yogurt, granola, and seeds, and an americano. The food was fresh and tasty and the coffee was strong and pretty delicious. Also, the restaurant is airy and open with lots of natural light and is situated right across from Albert Park. Great way to start off my Auckland visit!

We popped in for coffee and a sweet treat on advice from a nearby gallery - was an excellent location for people-watching, with a steady stream of students heading past our street-side seats and into the city. The cafe has an interesting selection of cakes and other sweet treats, as well as some deli options to purchase (jams, chutneys ...). But I was sadly disappointed by our coffee - it wasn't strong enough or warm enough to be satisfying, and on top of that my slice was too sugary-sweet for my taste. So next trip we'll be on the lookout for somewhere else to try for our caffeine fix.
