Yay for Tart!

I love that this bakery opened up near where I lived. Every time I walked pass it's a fight not to buy something, even if I'm not hungry. Can't pick one thing that stands out - it's all delicious. If you do want something in particular, it pays to go early to nab it as it will likely sell out.

Pros: Range, Availability

Cons: So popular they sell out quickly

Amazing Vegan Bakery

I bought a nice chai latte and croissant sandwich here during a quick trip to the area.
I loved seeing vegan versions of typical Kiwi bakery items on display, such as pies, sausage rolls, cream buns, and sandwiches.
I wish that I was able to try more, as they all looked so yummy 😋.
There's just a couple of little tables outside to eat at, so it is best to buy takeaways.
The area also has a couple of other vegan eateries, so it's a good location to visit if you are on the hunt for vegan food.

Pros: Good quality, tasty, nice area with other vegan eateries nearby, friendly owner

Cons: Limited seating

Delicious!

Tart Bakery is a great find! We tried an apricot danish and a couple of their pies, and they were all quite delicious. It's fantastic to see such a big number of vegan establishments in this area!

Incredible Selection and Taste

An amazing selection of delicious plant-based pies, pastry, cakes, sandwiches, croissants and breads. We appreciate the effort and options that are provided and acknowledge Tart's commitment to contributing to a kinder and more sustainable planet. 🙏

Delicious croissant

We visited Tart in March 2025 and had a delicious cheese and ham croissant. The croissant was delicious with a good amount of filling, They also had some delicious looking cakes but we had already been to Maison de Lys for cake!

Amazing iced lattes, Good food

Loved the iced latte with caramel, but only when made by the weekend person.

I tried a huge range of their offerings, and my favourite was the coconut cream donut. The rest were enjoyable, but there was always something holding it back from being truly amazing. It was great to see they were always busy, with lines out the door, and the older lady is so so lovely and friendly.

- Coconut cream donut: DELISH, slightly crispy which was amazing
- Apricot danish: pastry was really nice and crispy, but chocolate drizzle and jam wash overly sweet
- Pain au chocolat: very crispy and delicious with a jam wash which was amazing, the chocolate they use is a little too sweet, and a real letdown
- Mince cheese pie: good, however I couldn't detect any cheese taste or texture
- Frank roll: didn't like the sausage taste, but my friend LOVED it
- Plain croissant: ok
- Cheese stick: crispy, quite nice taste, but oily mouthfeel
- Cappuccino donut: good, cappuccino taste was quite subtle, I would have prefered it stronger, quite doughy
- Peanut croissant: ok, strong peanut taste, lots of cream
- Lemon chickn roll: doesn't taste of lemon, but the perfect amount of a nice tasting mayo, very good chikn texture and lots of fresh salad
- Mac and cheese pie: good, and has bacon bits in it
- Creamy mushroom chickn pie: nice and creamy, noticeable coconut, and very salty
- Sausage roll: quite good taste, but also quite mushy texture
- Pizza: ok, bit doughy

Updated from previous review on 2023-09-07

Pros: coconut cream donut, lemon chikn roll

So yummy!

I loved everything I tried at this lovely place. The owner is so nice and everything was so delicous. Nevertheless it is more like a take-away place but that was ok for me.

Pros: Everything was vegan, Owner was so nice

Cons: Loud Street

Saturday morning special

Been here so many times and can’t believe I’ve never reviewed it. Absolutely amazing spot, one of the few vegan bakeries in Aotearoa.

Genuinely a special place, honestly, I think Richoux make better pies, the bakeries in Wellington are better, and the price here is a bit steep but I’d still come back every time. The best Saturday morning feed you can find!

Pros: Range, Lovely staff, Great food

Cons: Cost, Pie flavours vary in quality significantly , Limited parking

Satisfies my cravings

I love a good filled roll and Tart's 'ham' croissant and 'chicken' sandwich scratch that itch. Not to mention the cream doughnuts and hot savouries...
It's just great to get these things all vegan. Great coffee too, and although it's noisy to sit outside, it's a good spot to watch the world go by. It's a bakery, not a café, after all.

Pros: Filled rolls, pastries, , Great coffee , Lots of choice

Delicious variety!

Really friendly and walked in not knowing it was vegan and sighing because I just saw loads of buttery looking pastries and meats to be pleasantly surprised that it was all vegan. I stocked up on loads of stuff for our road trip:
- BBQ Chicken Sanwich
- Frank Roll
- Ham & Cheese Croissant
- Boston Cream Donut
- Fruit Danish (one of each)
- Cheesy Spinach & Pesto Pie

Pros: Variety, Meat eaters love it, The Frank Roll

Cons: No soft drinks

Everything we tried was delicious

We bought different sweet and savory things. All of them were delicious 😋 Would totally recommend going there. The branch in Commercial Bay is closed. I hope they'll reopen!

Yes, please.

We had the cheese and ham croissant (toasted) and the mushroom pie which were both really great! The sausage roll wasn't my favourite but my son loved it.

Simply the best

We were in Auckland for a week, and in that time tried several items from Tart Bakery - savory mushroom pies, 'burger' sandwiches, savory muffin type things with herbs, spinach and tomato filling - also sweet ones with cinnamon and nuts. These were all excellent, but where this bakery really shines is with the desserts. We had peanut butter-chocolate cheesecake, apple crumble cheesecake, a fresh fruit danish, and a croissant with apple filling, icing, and almond slices. I can't put into words just how amazing and wonderful it was to have the pleasure of trying all these utterly delicious things. I can't wait to go back. And oh - the staff was exceptionally stellar.

Pros: Delicious food, lovingly prepared, Felt light and satisfied after eating, Excellent staff

Cons: For me, no cons

Best vegan bakery ever

I ordered a 'chicken' sandwich and coconut cream doughnut and both were absolutely divine. I live on the north shore but I made a special trip to go to Tart because they're fully vegan, and honestly it was worth the trip. The only complaint that I have is that there should be one on the north shore! The food is incredible and I will definitely be back again.

Amazing vegan pies

We really love coming to this place!
They have some amazing savory options like small pizzas, sausage rolls as well as a big selection of pies. On top of that, they have daily different sweet options including cakes, croissants and some smaller dessert options. Our favorites are the curry pie and their pizza (incredible garlic taste).

Pros: Completely vegan , Great choices, Good prices

Amazing almond croissant!

Called in on my last day in Auckland and bought an almond croissant to eat at the airport. It was amazing! Now they need to expand into Australia...

Pros: Lots of choice, Friendly service, That almond croissant...

Cons: It's only in Auckland
