Urban Soul Karaka

Recognised as one of Auckland's Best Cafes, Urban Soul is for all the souls out there... especially the hungry ones! Head over for locally sourced ingredients and homemade yums.

Everything about this slick establishment exudes artistic flare. Bistro-style furnishings, bare walls and edgy artwork make for a lowkey, intimate setting. It might be minimalist, but it boasts that grungy vibe that makes it so damn cool!

And unlike most jet setting urban souls, nothing is rushed in this neck of the woods. Take your time with some tasty entrees, like shiitake gyoza or a flavoursome soup of the day.

Their mains serve up some Kiwi classics, like braised pork belly with tangy apple chutney, braised lamb shanks and market fish with buttery potatoes. And that's before we get to their pizzas! Then, welcome the rest of the day with a beautifully crafted coffee, courtesy of Ozone Coffee Roasters. That's right, we're keeping it local!
