Where To Find The Best Crumpets In Auckland

Located inside Monte Cecilia Park and known as the ‘House on the Hill,’ Homestead makes for an ideal breakfast spot, especially on a sunny day. Included on their all-day menu is a list of crumpets with killer topping combinations.

From lemon butter and bush honey to salmon, hollandaise & poached eggs, there’s a flavour for everyone. All options are plated as a single housemade crumpet, loaded with an abundance of texture and taste. As word has spread, this place can get pretty jam-packed. If you do happen to wait a while, the thought of food should pull you through!

Reflecting their dedication towards using local produce, Tom Hishon and Josh Helm have built a rooftop hive above their Orphan’s Kitchen Eatery. This homemade honey is then used in several dishes, including their famous burnt butter crumpets. Resembling slices of cake, you can expect to receive two thick, spongy wedges.

Unlike any other crumpets you’ve had before, this will be a dining experience to remember. Drenched in honey, it may sound like a sugar overload. However, the dish provides the perfect amount of sweetness that will leave you ultimately satisfied.

Identifiable by a vibrant shop sign with black cursive writing, it shouldn’t be too hard to spot Chuffed’s High Street entrance. Following the smell of coffee, you’ll soon pass a colourful mural before reaching the counter. Those after a takeaway will end their journey here, while customers dining-in can continue through the glass door into a narrow blue floored room, home to a selection of wooden tables.

After taking a seat and skimming the menu, the crumpets will likely catch your eye. Whether you’re after a sugar or salty fix, these guys have you covered offering both a black forest cherry and chocolate combination as well as salmon, pickled onion, and avocado mix. Both options come with two crumpets and are plated with high levels of precision.

Through the combination of fresh white interior and large glass windows, Little and Friday offers a delightful environment for a mid-week treat or weekend brunch. If you manage to bypass Kim’s mouth-watering cabinet treats, we applaud you for your exceptional willpower and suggest directing your attention to the crumpets on their menu. Emphasising the notion of quality of quantity, this superb dish comes served as a single fluffy crumpet, delicately topped with blackberry compote, mascarpone, and Fred’s Honeycomb.
