About

Soul Sweet, on North Island, is a café at 559 Great North Road, Grey Lynn, Auckland 1021, New Zealand. First-time visitors should expect a compact neighbourhood setting on one of Auckland's main arterial roads rather than a large chain outlet.

Visitors rate it 5 out of 5 across 17 reviews, a flawless average from a modest but enthusiastic set of customers. From Auckland, Wellington, Rotorua, Taupo, Hamilton, Tauranga, Napier or New Plymouth, the café sits within Auckland's inner western suburbs, and ferries reach Waiheke, the Hauraki Gulf islands and Stewart Island, with a Cook Strait service linking the two main islands.

Grey Lynn places it close to the city centre, so it works as a stop on a wider Auckland day. Seasons run opposite to the northern hemisphere, with summer from December to February and winter from June to August, so the outdoor months fall over the New Zealand summer.

Māori culture is central to national life, with marae, haka and the Treaty of Waitangi signed in 1840, and the city's place names reflect that history. New Zealand sits on the boundary of the Pacific and Australian tectonic plates, so small earthquakes are common.
