What a beauty. Decorated with all things comic book and superheroes. Stunning views of the Cook Strait, watching the ferry’s go by and the seagulls trying their luck. We got nachos, full breakfast and eggs Benedict. All well enjoyed. As well as milkshakes and thick shakes.

One of Wellington's iconic cafés. Situated on a beautiful sandy harbour beach and with memorabilia of old PS and Nintendo games, comics and movies inside, on a sunny day it is often packed and full of noise and activity, but go anyway and wait, it's worth it. Milkshakes have "Great, Really Great, and Boozy" options. The food is pretty standard but the location makes up for it. Follow the road just a little further and you're bound to find a secret parking spot by the rocky coast to sip your milkshakes.

Generous portions. Well thought out menu (full of dad jokes), and skilled chefs. They're pricey but I think that's because you're paying for the view. They're open every day, while most other places in Motu Kairangi are closed Monday/Tuesday. Their soy milks is a bit nasty, so get a long black instead.

Perfect place to have breakfast if you are in Miramar area on a sunny day. We were lucky to sit outside, no wind, wonderful bay views, and quick service by the way.

We had a delicious breakfast at this lovely restaurant across from Scorching Bay. I had the pancakes with berry compote and banana. It was very good, especially the berry compote. My son had an egg breakfast with bacon, potatoes and toast. The service was excellent. I would highly recommend dining here.

Gets very busy beyond 9:30am. Food is gorgeous. Great little café in a cool spot. There is parking but it is limited (and most customers do drive in). On a bus route - go for that if you have the time.

It was a beautiful sunny day in Karaka Bay. Enjoyed the spot on the beach side deck. Service was great;.waiting staff crossing the road to get food and drinks to your alfresco table is quirky. Beautiful view and delicious food and fantastic beverages. You cannot beat Wellington on a great day!

A great escape from the city, on a good sunny day, even on a gloomy day. With unbeatable views, you can't go wrong with this venue. It accommodates most crowds, bring in your dog, kids, date, family or friends. The delivery of food did take longer than usual but we did attend on a WOAP day so hoping it's in relation to that and not the usual service because the staff were both friendly and accommodating. The Captain America oreo milkshake was the best milkshake I've ever had!
