About Flight Coffee Hangar Cafe

In Te Aro, Flight Coffee Hangar Cafe treats morning coffee like a cellar tasting. Welly regulars order comparative flights—a pour-over beside an espresso, complete with origin cards and sparkling water to reset the palate. The kitchen keeps pace. Diners steer tables toward the braised lamb shoulder benedict with runny poached eggs, crisp bacon butties, and loaded avocado toast. Shaken concoctions like the seasonal Tiramisu Cloud finish the order, turning cold brew into a breakfast-friendly mocktail.

  • Curated Coffee Flights: Compare single origins and brew styles side by side, accompanied by origin tasting cards and sparkling palate cleansers.
  • Elevated Brunch Plates: Inventive morning fare ranges from braised lamb shoulder benedict on ciabatta to bacon butties and loaded avocado toast.
  • Signature Coffee Concoctions: Creative cold-brew concoctions like the Tiramisu Cloud and Flight 4810 bring dessert and mocktail craft to morning coffee.

    Feast on robust, elevated plates anchored by tender slow-cooked lamb shoulder, vibrant greens, and flawless poached eggs.
