Sunday drive out to the Otago Peninsula tomorrow? 🌿☕️
If you haven’t booked and secured a spot, don’t worry — there are always takeaway cakes (or anything from the menu)!
Gus’s toast of the week is a beauty: Swiss brown mushrooms, pumpkin purée, basil & almond pesto, roasted butternut squash and fresh greens, finished with a delicious damson reduction. 🎃🌿
We’ll also have our popular lamingtons and, of course, our famous meringue tarts with preserved fruit. ✨
Can’t wait to see you guys from 8:30am tomorrow! ❤️

Happy Saturday! ☀️
We've heard the sunshine is making a comeback today... and so is the Augustines weekend menu.
This week's Toast of the Week comes with silverside beef, Swiss cheese, beetroot & horseradish chutney, a roast beetroot and onion salad, horseradish aioli, and a crunchy sprinkle of wasabi peas.
And yes... lamingtons are back! One of this weekend's flavours is Pear & Ginger (and we think you're going to love it).
Here's a little sneak peek of what's on this weekend.
See you from 8:30am. Friday to Sunday at Augustines of Portobello. 🌿

Here we are, toast fans! 🤗
Watch what Gus creates this week with humble beetroot and some gloriously ugly, farm-grown horseradish. Proof that the best produce doesn’t have to be pretty.
Our official taste testers reckon this might be one of his best creations yet… 👀.
See you tomorrow from 8:30am at Augustines of Portobello❤️

National Lamington Day was on 21 July… and yes, we missed it because it fell on a Tuesday! 😅
So we're making up for it tomorrow.
We'll have four lamington flavours waiting for you:
🍊 Orange
🍎 Apple
🫐 Blackcurrant
💜 And of course, our much-loved Black Doris plum.
One of our favourite things is seeing where our lamingtons end up. Whether it's with your morning coffee, at the beach, or enjoyed at home, we love seeing your photos and stories. Here's a little collection of some of our own snaps and your customer photos. ❤️
See you tomorrow from 8:30am (Lamingtons from 10am).
