Lobby Espresso Review




On Tuesday last week my Mum and I decided to go to Lobby Espresso because it was quite a bit warmer inside than it was outside and because the week before we had walked past it and the food looked nice. I have to admit that I forget the name of what my Mum and I ordered (they can be seen in the pictures above) but we both thought the food was nice  and the drinks (Coffee and a Hot Chocolate) were ok though a bit expensive, that being said the atmosphere of the place was great and the service was good. I would recommend Lobby Espresso to people though be prepared to pay a bit more for a nice lunch.

Though I can’t remember the name of what we ordered they were both really nice and something that both of us would get again if we were to back again and have lunch (see the pictures of what we got above). We were both given knives and forks which was good and usually helps you eat whatever it is that you have ordered, and it did for my Mum though for me it didn’t (I’m not sure if this was due to what I had being a bit toasted or it being a different type of bread) because when I went to cut what I ordered the filling spewed out the side, despite this it was still really nice and I would get it again.
Along with the food that we ordered my Mum and I both ordered drinks, my Mum got a Flat White and I got a Hot Chocolate both were ok and enjoyable to drink though they did add to the cost of lunch which ended up being more than what was spent on lunch in previous weeks. Though the price was a bit expensive the atmosphere of Lobby Espresso more than made up for it.
Though the food and drinks were a little on the expensive side the atmosphere of Lobby Espresso was one of the best out of the places that my Mum and I have had lunch. It had big windows which allowed the sun to stream in, it had quite comfortable chairs to sit in and you could look out the window and see the viaduct and the water of the Waitemata Harbour. On top of all of this it was quite a bit warmer inside than it was outside which was really nice because a few places we went to in previous weeks sheltered us from the wind but were still a bit cold, so the warmth of the place was an added bonus.
The service at Lobby Espresso was good, the staff were friendly and my Mum and I did not have to wait long at all for our food and drinks to arrive which is good if you don’t have a long lunch break. It was also good because we have been to places in the past where our order has been forgotten (fortunately this doesn’t happen often). The good service was another one of the good things about the place and is another one of the reasons I would go back and have lunch there.
If I had to rate Lobby Espresso I would give it a 6 out of 10 because the food that my Mum and I ordered was really nice and didn’t take long at all to be brought out, the service was good and the atmosphere was one of the best of the places that we have been to lunch. I would recommend Lobby Expresso for people who have a short amount of time for lunch and who want a really nice atmosphere and good views while they eat.

My Review of Billy Connolly’s Route 66

Image
Having watched the TV show I thought it would be interesting to read the book version, and I have to say that it was very enjoyable to read and just as good as the show. One of things that I liked about it was that it had some things that Billy Connolly saw and did along Route 66 which didn’t make it into the show, which I thought were still interesting even though he didn’t think much of them (I can see why they didn’t make it into the show), and if I were every lucky enough to travel along Route 66 on my own journey   I don’t think I would visit those places ether. That being said there were other things that I liked about the book such as that if you were traveling along the same route you could almost use the book as a guide for what things to do and what places to go as you make your way from Chicago, Illinois to Los Angeles, California. When I think about it the book is not really that different than the TV show in terms of what is in it, it mostly follows what happ...

My Review of Avengers Endgame (2019)

Image
        Having been disappointed with how Avengers Infinity War (2018) ended I had mixed feelings about going to see Avengers Endgame, part of me was hopping this would be an epic superhero movie and another part was thinking it might be a disappointment like the last one fortunately it was the former. I found that the plot was well paced and kept me interested for the whole three hours and was not slow at any point, and given how many characters the directors Anthony Russo and Joe Russo had to fit into the film I think they did a very good job with even some of the minor characters from   previous Marvel films getting some screen time.   As well as most of the characters we have come to expect from an Avengers film (Black Widow, Iron Man, The Hulk, Thor, and Captain America etc) Captain Marvel (played by Brie Larson) was also included.   From the small (in my opinion) amount of screen time that Larson’s character had I can see why peop...

“A Higher Loyalty – Truth, Lies and Leadership”, by James Comey Book Review

Image
Before I started reading this book all I knew about James Comey was that he had been Director of the FBI and was fired by Donald Trump, so when I picked it up from my local library, I was very excited to start reading the book and find out more about the man that I had seen commentators on TV talk about a lot throughout the later part of 2016 and early 2017. It turned out to be a very interesting book to read and one that I would possibly buy in future. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to know about some of the more recent events in U.S. politics. When I started reading this, I thought James Comey’s book would be more about some of the events of the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election and the early part of the Trump presidency (which the later part of it was), but it turned out that a large proportion of the book was semi-autobiographical detailing his early life and his early career. I found this bit of the book to be the most interesting part for me becaus...
