Really great place for just a coffee or a full breakfast/lunch. A bustling, warm atmosphere, the staff are brilliant. 10/10 from me

Nice coffee. Food is ok. Green bowl was mainly salad leafs and dressing wasn't great value for $24. Was expecting more veg and variety. Burger was ok, but salty. The hash brown was crispy but not much substance inside.

Coming to brunch at Batch is my favorite way to start the weekend. The aesthetic is very cool, and I love seeing the art all along the walls and the nods to NZ. No matter how busy it gets, the staff are attentive, kind, and friendly (especially Christy), and they even remember my coffee order. The coffee is fantastic, the food is delicious, and the portion sizes are great. I love that you can have dishes as-is or you can make them vegan friendly (always helpful when eating with a group of friends)! Since it’s located near the botanic gardens and the beach, I also love being able to take out anything I want for picnics. Will be coming back here again; highly recommend.
