Orphans Kitchen

At Orphans Kitchen, we’re more than just a café; we’re a collaboration between two friends, Tom Hishon and Josh Helm. Nestled in a charming Victorian villa from 1912 on Ponsonby Road, we offer a cozy atmosphere with a 40-seat dining room, a communal table upstairs, and a delightful outdoor courtyard. Our menu has evolved from dinner-only to include mouthwatering breakfast and lunch options, complemented by a selection of refreshing drinks. We pride ourselves on being friendly and accommodating, so please let our team know if you have any specific dietary needs—we’re here to help! Come join us for a meal that feels like home.
