I have often seen this place on the way to work, but don't have a long enough lunch break to explore. I went in on the weekend for breakfast and it was really nice - although I was the only person there at the time. The service was friendly and quick, and the food excellent.

My number one and top cafe in Tamaki Makaurau. Every time I’m in Auckland, it’s a must for me and my family to visit and dine it at Gloria Jean’s at East Tamaki 3 or 4 times a week. The food is absolutely delicious and always fresh. Can’t say enough about the staff, they are super awesome and very friendly. I recommend this cafe to everyone near and afar. This is my go to and happy place in Auckland. Cheers to the staff.

Nice staff and cabinet food is as expected of a chain store. I had a tea which was brewed from a tea bag. Reasonably nice place to spend a lunch hour at.
