Carpe Diem - Whangaparaoa

The atmosphere here is really nice as you can sit outside on the deck and enjoy the sunshine while dining. The actual food is ok. Nothing too impressive but I did order snack food like fries and pizza.

Absolutely amazing meal. Very nice place to eat and atmosphere was so relaxing. Can't wait to come back and I love the fact that you are in the heart of gulf harbour close to where we live.

We live in Gulf Harbour so come here occasionally for a drink and hot chips with the kids. Last night we decided to attempt taking them out for dinner. We arrived early as we knew it would be quiet at that time and were greeted and the girls given activity sheets to keep them occupied. As usual the staff were amazing with the girls. Our food was all really good! I had the fish which came with potatoes, I loved the flakes of salt. It could have done with some greens (I should have asked for this) but the girls kids meals both came with a yummy salad which I ate. We also had pudding after. Tiramsu was really good, cheese cake and the girls icecream also went down a treat. Thank you to the staff who go the extra mile.

Fantastic food 5/5,service awesome 5/5.<br/ Great choice of wines and a real pint of beer. Wonderful live music on saturday nights and Sunday days. More people should be trying this restaurant. If you haven't why not?!<br/ Such a beautiful location, viaduct quality food at gulf harbour prices. Fantastic new owner that goes out of his way to make you welcome as do all the staff! What an amazing transformation!!

What a wonderful time we had! From our first impressions warm greeting to paying the extremely reasonable bill as we left. I'm afraid I'm going to do a rave. The service was outstanding. The food was plentiful and delicious. The staff were ever present, friendly and helpful.<br/ And something most unusual in cafes around town the coffee was excellent!<br/ <br/ We travelled an hour to reach Gulf Harbour and we can't wait to go back. (I haven't said that about a cafe for years! <br/ <br/ Thanks very much team for making our Sunday special.
