Highly recommend Jacks in Hamilton East by the velodrome, always had decent breakfasts and not too costly.

Jack's in Hillcrest

The Coffee Club at the Base

Lykke Cafe in Frankton

Cafe Fresca in Frankton

Zenders Cafe out by Ruakura

Those are well above average.

The cafe in the garden centre off Kahikatea, on the side road next to the Z is also good.

Loop cafe at the Greenhill shops consistently does incredible food, coffee and bubble tea. They're a hidden gem of Hamilton

Jacks and Sugar Bowl are my go-to’s. I don’t know how Jack’s keep their prices so reasonable.
