Despite Ponsonby going posh there is still one bohemian hangout left. Cezanne has being going strong for nearly 30 years. Current owners Jackie and Rod believe in offering good value meals in a relaxed and causal atmosphere. The breakfast servings are huge and stacked with protein for those foggy mornings. There are gluten free meals with a good range of vegetarian or vegan options.
Private rooms are available for birthday get-togethers with uncensored speeches. Check out the $20 Sunday to Tuesday dinner special with a complementary glass of wine or beer.

When you think dessert you can’t go past cake. Carrot cake is probably my favourite, especially with cream cheese icing, oh my! Chocolate is good too but sometimes you need to expand your horizons people. This cafe is open late and is a great little place to head out to for a slice or two of cake. The prices are good and the flavour never fails to amaze me. Yum!
This quriky café in Ponsonby has some of the most drool-worthy sweet treats in town. I used to work in Ponsonby and would go in there for lunch all the time. Despite my healthiest intentions - ordering salad and lemon water - I literally could not resist the treat cabinet on my way up to pay, often impulsively buying 4 or 5 different slices at the last minute when asked by the cashier if "that’s all for today?" I’m a sucker for a good lemon slice and Café Cezanne’s is top notch.
This place is an institution in Ponsonby and has been serving decent cups of coffee with enormous servings of delicious foods for more than 26 years so the owner tells me. Café Cezanne is a very laid back place guaranteed to be open really late for those wanting hot nourishing food that is guaranteed to satisfy
After a big night out, like most people I guess, my body craves something a little bit greasy, large and filling. The nachos ($16) at Cafe Cezanne, pictured here, can be found on the lunch and dinner menu (generally if I’m nursing a sore head I’ll stay in bed as long as possible). The nachos, which are only challenged by those found at The Cavalier, are piled high with toppings, cheese and sour cream. The service is friendly and the coffee’s great. If you’re in the mood for something sweet, which I usually am, they also do an amazing selection of desserts and sweet treats. Just what the doctor ordered.
