Bach Cafe
About
Bach Cafe serves North Island as a coffee shop or café, with its premises on Ruakaka Beach Road in Ruakākā. The café opens its doors on the beach road that runs through the settlement.
Bach Cafe draws a steady following, reflected in a 4.6 out of 5 average across 436 reviews. As a café, it serves coffee alongside the sort of counter food that suits a morning stop or a midday break. The 436 reviews make it one of the more reviewed cafés in the region, and the Ruakākā address places it within reach of Auckland, one of the nearby places in the north.
Opening hours run from 09:00 to 14:30 on Wednesday and Thursday, 09:00 to 14:00 and then 16:00 to 20:00 on Friday, and 08:30 to 15:00 on Saturday and Sunday. The café is closed on Monday and Tuesday.
A visitor touring North Island can pair a café stop with the wider region, where the coast and the bush sit close together. New Zealand cooking leans on lamb, dairy and seafood, including green-lipped mussels, bluff oysters and crayfish, so a meal out often follows that pattern.
