Mediterraneo Cafe

The food here is good but unfortunately the service really brings the experience down. The staff were very slow and I even had to take my own drink out of the fridge because no one brought it to the table. On top of that the whole restaurant smelled strongly of fryer oil which made it unpleasant to stay inside. Overall, despite the decent food the poor service and atmosphere mean I would not come back.

Right in the centre of Tauranga. Nice chill atmosphere, music 60s 70s 80s. Parking on a Sat morning quite hard to find and theoretically only 30 mins. Food was excellent. Coffee very good. The menu was the usual fare, their lunch menu starts at 8am and some nice options there. The most impressive feature, very rare in cafes, is they offer a small version of nearly all their meals at nearly half the price. This was great for us as we don't have big breakfasts. I had the small eggs bene which was just right, my partner the full monty (big breakfast) which was more a medium than a small soi got some leftovers. Friendly, fast and knowledgeable service. Highly recommended.

Local highly recommended cafe right in the town centre. Great hospitality to refreshingly start your day with breakfast. I like them pay attention to the details to even cool the cups to make sure your drinking water is cool enough. Breakfast means a lot to me so if you are my kind please grab a seat in the Med when you visit Tauranga.

Really nice place for breakfast with many options on the menu and additional pastries in the showcase. I had the toasted bagel with salmon and coffee - both were great. The staff is also lovely Great way to start your day

Delicious brunch, so happy to see all the gluten free options on the menu. Fussy miss 10 had GF pancakes (minus anything ‘fancy’!) and loved them. The GF granola was amazing.

The meals here are sensational. Everything is made on the premises using only the freshest local ingredients. The barista made coffee is also excellent. The Med (as it is fondly known) has maintained consistently high standards over many years. There is nowhere else I would rather go for delicious food during the day in Tauranga.

The Eggs Benny was absolutely amazing. Staff were kind and very friendly and the coffee was delicious! Thanks to the very helpful team and amazing owner! Will be coming back!

We mostly came to try the bagels but were disappointed because they tasted more like regular bread than real bagels. On the other hand, the omelet we tried was terrific. Plus we loved the cozy atmosphere inside and the good service. So this gets an easy five stars in spite of the bagels.
