Charlie Boys

The Verdict

This spot on the corner may be on the smaller side but it's reputation for serving up some of the best coffee in Grey Lynn is large. Fitted out as if it were in the 50s, Charlie Boys is a go-to for many regulars who rely on the café's takeway coffee to get them through the working day. However if you need a bit more fuel in the tank you're in luck as the cabinet is stocked up with all the lunchtime classics such as pies, cakes and muffins.
