⭐⭐⭐⭐ – Stylish Spot for a Casual Business Lunch at Café Avion I recently visited Café Avion in Māngere for the first time, and overall, it was a pleasant experience. Tucked away in a convenient location, this café offers a welcoming and versatile environment that’s perfect for a quick bite, a casual catch‑up, or even a business lunch. One of the standout features is the layout and seating options. The space is thoughtfully divided into different zones, so whether you prefer a traditional table setting or a more relaxed couch area, there’s something to suit your mood. It’s clear that the design was made with comfort and flexibility in mind, which adds to the overall appeal. The menu is straightforward, and the prices are reasonable – not overly cheap, but fair for what you get. I ordered a burger and fries, which were decent. Nothing particularly memorable, but they did the job. The portion size was adequate, and the food came out in good time. If you’re looking for gourmet or bold flavours, this might not be the place, but for a quick, satisfying meal, it works. What really makes Café Avion a good choice is its atmosphere for business lunches. The setting is quiet enough to have a conversation without shouting, and the table arrangements make it easy to spread out documents or laptops if needed. It’s a great middle ground between a formal restaurant and a casual café. While the food could be elevated a bit to match the quality of the space, I’d still recommend Café Avion to anyone looking for a comfortable, stylish spot in Māngere to grab lunch or meet over coffee. I’ll likely be back to try a few more items on the menu and see how the experience evolves.

Hidden cafe in the industrial area of Mangere near the airport. I got the cheesy omelette (stuffed with mushrooms, feta & other cheeses) the tomato relish paired nicely with the omelette & ciabatta. Mocha was lovely, however it was just too warm for my liking, I like my hot beverages HOT. Slight let down was the staff service when ordering, other than that was a pleasant cafe to dine in.

Great Cafe with good selection of cabinet food that is yummy and reasonably priced. I loved the chicken mushroom filo. Parking can be a mission, only 5 parks on-site and road parking often full during business hours.

I visited this cafe today to have a coffee break. I ordered large flat white, chocolate almond cornut and lemon muffin. Coffee is good. Muffin and cornut are very good. I am very satisfied. Staff is kind. The cafe provide an option for coffee and muffin(or scone) at $9. It is great. It is nice, cosy and very clean place to have a coffee break. Highly recommend.
