Rhu is a wonderful café that offers a really enjoyable overall experience. The coffee was excellent, with a smooth and well-balanced flavour, and the pastries were fresh, beautifully presented, and delicious. The interior design was one of the highlights for me. It is stylish, modern, and thoughtfully decorated, creating a warm and comfortable atmosphere. The owner was especially friendly, welcoming, and attentive, which made the visit feel even more personal. Although the food took a little longer than expected to arrive, it was clear that each dish had been carefully prepared with a lot of attention and effort. Everything looked fresh, considered, and beautifully presented, so the wait felt worthwhile. The combination of great coffee, quality baked goods, friendly service, and outstanding interior design makes Rhu a café I would happily visit again. It is a lovely place to slow down, relax, and enjoy thoughtfully prepared food and coffee. Meal type: Brunch Price per person: NZ$30–40 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

There is not enough words to explain how good the food is in this restaurant! They keep upgrading the menu, it is seasonal, it is fresh and it is made with love and imagination. I cannot possibly single out a meal and say it is my favourite in because they are all so delicious that every time I go to this place I want to fit in just one more course. This time around we had the sourdough with the butter and the paté, the tuna tartar, edamame, cucumber and persimmon salad, fried chicken, chicken skewers, corn (prawn), potato with cultured cream, side of snapper and the wagyu sandwich. The desert was the rice cream that is to die for! We were so full that we could barely make it through the door. I love food and as a foodie I have to say that this is by far my favourite restaurant ever. Meal type: Dinner Price per person: NZ$90–100 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Rhu of Parnell definitely did not live up to expectations so will not be returning Firstly: our meals took 35 minutes to come with the cafe 1/2 or less full which is an unacceptable wait time for mostly pre prepared food Secondly: Meals are overpriced for what you get and what they promise Thirdly: Meals with a green tick are pictures on the Rhu website Meals with red tick what we actually received!! My meal came plain and minimal with NO fish roe or gherkin however after a conversation and 1/2 way through my meal they bought a wee bit of gherkin saying oh we now only put a bit of gherkin in the mix not separately anymore and regards the fish Roe staff said oh we only used fish roe for a short time but not anymore My partners meal was ok but minimal fruit Once home we had another snack to fill the slightly empty feeling we had Fourthly: OverCharge!! I asked for 1 x a single shot latte with my 2nd shot on the side so I could make my own strength you can see the pale latte showing one shot and a wee cup showing my extra shot Not x 2 lattes My partner had 2 x long blacks overall so 3 coffees in total only Once home my daughter & I were talking costs & I ended up looking at my receipt saying the meal seemed very expensive & realised I had been charged for 4 coffees I asked for the bill at the end once I had paid as they were not forthcoming with the bill but just glanced to not look untrusting & the body language of please move on now I emailed Rhu when I realised their mistake they immediately the next day apologising and asked for my bank details to give me a refund 10 days!! later having received no refund I re emailed Rhu again & 24 with no reply I thought to write my review prior to that I thought I would let it go but this was a bridge too far !!
