Centro is a local Takapuna café that continues to be an extremely popular, firm favourite – and for good reason! New owners Silva and Sasa, along with their partners Ajani and Yeshi, took charge back in March this year. Since then, Centro has continued to thrive, with a growing number of loyal, enthusiastic and discerning customers who are never disappointed.
Silva and Sasa have lived in New Zealand since 2013 and have more than eight years' experience in the hospitality industry. Originally from Sri Lanka, where their culture is firmly rooted in exceptional service and hospitality, Silva, Sasa and their team focus on friendly service, delicious food, the very best coffee and 100% customer satisfaction. Centro's lovely rustic interior and chilled vibe inside the café is a pleasure, and guests are always welcomed with a friendly greeting and warm smile.
Recognising and meeting the exceptionally high standards expected by their discerning customers is something Silva and Sasa took to heart right from the get-go. They introduced the very best coffee the Shore has to offer, serving Chiasso coffee exclusively, which is supplied directly from the Devonport-based connoisseurs of coffee themselves. And if that isn't reason enough to visit, every Monday you can bump-start your week, with a free Chiasso coffee when you purchase any menu item priced at $16.99 or more.
Along with raising the coffee culture bar in Takapuna, the food is also to die for! Centro prides themselves on accommodating the unique needs of every individual, offering a full range of food options that cater to a variety of palates. From delectable main courses to a tempting array of sweet treats, the diverse menu and cabinet food selection aims to delight and satisfy every customer who walks through the doors. The all-day breakfast menu leaves you spoilt for choice, covering all the staple favourites as well as more unusual options for those wanting a taste of something new. The Centro burgers are quite simply sensational, and if you want fantastic value for money to end your week with a treat, choose from all four burger options on Burger Friday, when the burgers are just $18.99 per order.
If your children's eyes are too big for their bellies, Centro also caters for smaller appetites with good value, well-portioned and delicious kid's menu items at just $15 each, which includes a kid's activity pack to keep the little ones busy and entertained.
Centro is open seven days a week, including public holidays, and does not charge any surcharge on those special days, to help you celebrate together with family and loved ones without blowing the budget. Centro is planning big things to come, with a dinner menu launching soon to provide a high-quality experience for evening diners too.
Many Channel Mag readers will already know and love Centro. If you haven't been for a while, or you are yet to enjoy the Centro experience, do pop along soon and say hi to Silva, Sasa and their team. You won't be disappointed, that's for sure!
