Demolition Deli
About

A 4.6 out of 5 average across 128 reviews puts Demolition Deli among the better-reviewed cafés in the Auckland area. That score has been built steadily rather than through passing trade, and it reflects repeat local custom as much as first visits. Auckland sits within easy reach, and Wellington, Rotorua, Taupo, Hamilton, Tauranga, Napier and New Plymouth are all on the same island for anyone touring further afield.
Opening hours run from early morning through the afternoon, covering breakfast and lunch service. Photographs of the café and its plates are available for anyone planning a first visit.
English is the main language and te reo Māori is also official, so Māori place names appear throughout the country and are worth learning to pronounce. New Zealand cooking leans on lamb, dairy and seafood, with green-lipped mussels, bluff oysters and crayfish featuring on many menus. Rugby union is followed closely nationwide, and the national team plays in black.
