Welcome to Farm Street Larder – Where Fresh Meets Friendly

Nestled just outside the north entrance to Bayfair Shopping Centre, Farm Street Larder is one of the brightest and most inviting cafés in the Bay. With expansive windows that welcome in natural light and shaded outdoor seating overlooking a peaceful green space, we’ve created an atmosphere that’s both relaxing and vibrant.

But location is only part of what makes Farm Street Larder special.

We offer a welcoming mix of indoor and outdoor seating, from intimate tables to communal spots that encourage connection. Our beachy, laid-back décor reflects the coastal lifestyle we love—and it’s backed by a menu designed around consistent quality and locally sourced ingredients.

Our Story

Owned and operated by the Mexted family you can expect to see Hilton, Mariska, Murray, Danni and Hanalei. They bring together a wealth of hospitality and business expertise. Farm Street Larder has been operating since August 2020, currently retaining several staff members from day one. That loyalty speaks to the culture we’ve built and the community we value.

Focused on Locals First

While we warmly welcome Bayfair shoppers and regional visitors, our heart lies with our loyal local customers and suppliers. We’re committed to delivering excellent coffee and consistently high-quality food. That starts with our choice of beans—Atomic Coffee, brewed to perfection by our talented baristas.

A Menu That Celebrates Kiwi Cuisine

Our menu reflects our love for good, honest food. From a hearty all-day breakfast to lunch and a fully stocked cabinet, everything is made from scratch in-house (except for our delicious bread, which comes from Volare). We stay true to a paddock-to-plate philosophy—so much so, we even trade coffee or cake for homegrown produce brought in by our customers.

You’ll find classic Kiwi dishes with a modern twist—like our popular mince on toast, a nostalgic favourite that wins over even our international guests. As seasons change, so does our menu. Expect wholesome soups and hearty pastas in winter, with lighter options in the warmer months.

Our $14 Breakfast Special—eggs on toast with a coffee, available from 7:30 to 9:30 am—has become a local favourite. Eggs Bene, made with our house hollandaise, is another top pick.

Sustainability Matters

We take sustainability seriously and are constantly working to reduce our carbon footprint and waste. From sourcing local to minimising packaging, our approach is grounded in responsibility and respect for our environment.
