Frasers is a bit of an icon for Mt Eden village, but to be honest I felt for the first time a little lost for words about the place. It is not a place for big groups, pushchairs, people who suffer from claustrophobia, or anyone suffering from a bit of deafness, as the place has never been quiet when I've been there. However, the coffee is excellent, and depending on what you choose to eat, can be delicious.

Our group of three were there earlyish on Sunday morning, slightly before the queue began!  We had the omelette with bacon ($18.80), Pancakes ($17.50) and Scambled eggs with bagel ($11.50). All three meals were 'ok', certainly not to be raved about unfortunately. To be honest, for an extremely popular place, I'm not sure what all the fuss is about.  Maybe I need to come back for lunch, or try the very reasonably priced dinner menu.  However, be warned, there is no table service and they have no alcohol licence or BYO either.... ok, so maybe I think having a glass of wine with dinner is important!!
