The Bach is a New Zealand inspired café at 12 Broadway Market. Its name refers to the modest holiday homes that are an iconic part of New Zealand culture, capturing the restaurant’s relaxed and welcoming approach. Breakfast, brunch and lunch are served alongside antipodean coffee, with a menu designed for leisurely catch ups as well as a quick start to the day.
Cooked breakfasts bring together free range eggs, house beans, sausage, bacon, black pudding, mushrooms, tomato and hash browns. A vegetarian version uses halloumi and vegetable haggis, while a fully plant based plate adds smashed avocado and tempeh. Eggs on sourdough, Turkish eggs, avocado toast and slow cooked beans provide more focused alternatives.
Corn fritters are a Kiwi brunch classic, served with chilli jam and lemon crème fraîche, while brioche French toast combines bacon, banana and maple syrup. The wider daytime selection includes toasties, salads, fries and changing lunch dishes, with vegetarian, vegan and gluten free choices clearly represented. Sweet cakes and slices offer an easy accompaniment to coffee later in the day.
The drinks menu gives espresso familiar New Zealand names such as short black and long black, alongside flat white, latte, cappuccino and filtered coffee. Tea, hot chocolate, smoothies and cold drinks broaden the selection for non coffee drinkers. This mix of generous brunch, inclusive choices and confidently prepared coffee gives The Bach its distinctive Broadway Market identity.
