★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I was looking forward to eating here as I read so many good reviews but the lady that served was rude and didn’t speak nicely infact didn’t even look at me. First we sat down but decided to leave!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very nice cozy Latin American restaurant. We ordered Spanish eggs, Spicy Chorizo quesdila and pulled pork tacos. Food was exquisite. Friendly staff too. We would definitely come here again.It is a very popular restaurant in Pahia. We couldn't get a table for breakfast because it was so busy but, we are glad we went back for lunch.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Food here is insanely good. Highlights are the Cuban Sandwich, Vegetarian Quesadilla, Fish Tacos, and Guacamole. Generous portions. Free selection of authentic sauces at the table so you can adjust flavours/heat. Always good music playing, too! Thanks Carla and John x

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I visited this spot during my Northland trip. I was in Paihia for three days and my accommodation was very close to this restaurant. But, I never visited this place. The outside El Cafe board was never appealing to me at all to try anything here. Before heading to Kerikeri, I stopped here for a coffee and quick breakfast. I must say, this little place is a hidden gem! I fell in love with the interior and the concepts. Whoever designed the interior has done it with utmost care. The concepts are great! The wait staff was very kind, polite and had great customer service skills. The food was amazing and the coffee was great. I gained a little knowledge about the Maya civilisation from the books kept there. Our final meal on Paihia was too good! Would definitely visit this place next time I visit Paihia abs would highly recommend! Cheers

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Mixed feelings about this place, the chicken sandwich was good, crunchy ciabatta bread with a decent amount of filling. The guacamole felt like it was missing lime juice for a tangy flavour and felt to watery. The vegetarian burrito was very large as well, it felt more like a mid day lunch rather than a breakfast, it was quite nice though. The berry smoothie was also very average it tasted very watery like alot of ice was added, the taste of it left very bad after taste. Overall I would go back but just for the chicken sandwich and to try something else.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It was ok, I had the El Cafe Burritos it was a bit bland, it needs to be a bit saucier and the sauce should have a kick and zing to it... I thought it should have fries or more corn chips with it.. I'm used to burritos being toasted a bit as well... It was big, but still expensive for it's serving as I say it should come with more chips and guacamole... But otherwise it was filling and nice enough..

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ El Café has the best, most authentic South American flavors I’ve tasted in all of New Zealand!
I am from Southern California and am used to good Mexican food at every corner, and that’s the one thing I miss in NZ. We stumbled on El Café after returning our rental bikes across the street. Hot and tired from our ride we were only thinking about a cold drink but the menu looked so enticing we ordered the pork quesadilla in addition to our banana smoothie and iced latte, que rico! The flavors were so fresh and just the right amount of heat. We made a plan then and there to return for breakfast on our last day in Paihia —how had we only just discovered this place?!
The next morning we were lucky enough to meet the chef and ordered his recommendations for brekkie: cubano sandwich and huevos rancheros. Again, perfection!
The food isn’t the only star: the cafe is also really cozy, comfy seats and themed decor; there’s wifi; and a clean toilet! Definitely recommend El Café and hope to return ASAP ?
