Celcius Cafe

We went back to Celsius Café this weekend, thanks to the kind offer of its owner.
We both ordered The Big Breakfast and also got a café latté and an English Breakfast tea.
The beverages were served to us within a couple of minutes. The coffee was really good and I particularly liked how the tea was served — on a tray with a tea pot, a small milk jug, another small jug, filled with hot water, a strainer, and a strainer holder. This took the whole tea experience to another level — it was a small ceremony, which we both really enjoyed.
The breakfasts arrived only a few minutes later; literally, 5 – 6 minutes after ordering them, which was impressive.
The Big Breakfast consists of a slice of Beer Bread (by Brezelmania), a Cheese Kranski, a couple of Poached Eggs, a couple of Potato Hash, Creamy Mushrooms, Bacon, and half a Roast Tomato.
I simply can’t fault this dish.
The eggs were poached to perfection (I have no idea how they managed to prepare them so perfectly, so quickly). The mushrooms were my favorite part of the dish — the suave they were cooked in was divine. The potato hash was crunchy on the outside and beautifully cooked on the inside. The Kranski was delicious. If I have to be picky, I’d recommend that the bacon is cooked in a clean pan — although I agree that cooking it in an used pan adds flavor to it, I’d still like to see it nice and pink, instead of having brown bits. As I said, however, this is just being picky.
One thing I must say — I wasn’t happy last time I came here and the owner of the café made sure they redeem themselves and they did it outstandingly. A lot of business owners have to take an example from this lady, who turned my negative (but constructive) feedback into an outstanding one and ensured my future returning custom.

I always head to Celcius Café when I am in Wellington. The food is fantastic and at a reasonable price, the staff are always friendly and helpful. They even roast and sell their own coffee beans. The coffee is Awesome.

After a stunning recommendation from my business partner, I visited Celcius with him yesterday while on a short business trip to Wellington. First impression, great vibe, cheerful staff and a good menu with stuff this very picky eater would like. The cabinet equally had some yummy food that looked tempting. Unfortunately I was coffee’d out by the time I got to Celcius, but there was a constant stream of people from local businesses’ coming in for coffee, so that is always a great indicator. My meal was a ⁹⁄₁₀. The ambience was pleasant and this was mid morning, mid week and it was busy. They also had a variety of coffee beans, plus freshly ground coffee for sale at reasonable prices. Next time in Wellington, I’ll make sure I go out of my way just to have a meal here. Well done team !!
