Ruby Red

Really chilled out, community village vibe. The coffee is exceptional. The barista is soooo good. I keep coming back just for her, and I've been doing so for 6 years. The pancakes are super fluffy, and the portion is generous. The breakfast salad is perfect. Well seasoned and portioned. I'd probably add another two poached eggs to increase the protein content, but still its very, very delicious. The selection in the cabinet is also delicious. If you're looking for a place that has a relaxed vibe and has a great community feel, this is the place to go.

A regular favorite whenever I'm in Auckland. They serve great coffee and offer a delicious assortment of pastries. Their French toast is AMAZING! During this visit, it started as a quick grab-and-go coffee stop, but I couldn't resist trying the delicious sticky cinnamon pecan scroll, which led us to enjoy our coffee right there (much better that way). We also decided to get their house-made scone. No regrets! The service was prompt, even though they were quite busy, and the outdoor seating provided the perfect setting to enjoy the sun and breeze.

Treat yourself to the Big Brekkie. A slight upgrade from the usual mixed grill, in the Mangere area. Comes with a gourmet pork sausage (gf), creamy mushroom (nice and light), bacon, eggs (any style), wholegrain toast with butter and tomato. A decent sized plate of brekkie goodness. Others dishes to try are their Omelette and Beef salad 👌 I've ordered a few times now. Lovely staff and great service.

The coffee is superb. The food is great. The staff are genuinely friendly and attentive. Prices are very reasonable. We frequent Ruby Red most weekends... it's that good 👍 Our go to brekkie is the Free Range Eggs on 5 grain toast, mine is with bacon and my wife's is either with salmon or avocado (the tomato relish is a perfect accompaniment). I also highly recommend the Big Brekkie. Best cafe in Mangere Bridge hands down!!! We love Ruby Red ♥️

Cherry smile at the counter and great service at our table. We both ordered an omelette which was to include Salmon, at an extra cost. Would have been fine if we could spot or taste the Salmon. Otherwise tasty. Great coffee - nice and hot. Price would have been fine if the Salmon had been just a little bit visible. We have been here a number of times now and there's always a good vibe.

Lovely food! It’s always fresh and hot. Corn fritters are a favourite of mine - they’re packed with goodness and come paired with a lovely relish. The coffee is more than halfway decent (excellent in my opinion) and I’ll admit, I cannot resist their gingerbread men. The staff are friendly and always provide quality service.
