Welcome to the Lazy Lounge Website

Welcome to the Lazy Lounge. You can find us at 139 Oceanview road, Oneroa on the wonderful Waiheke Island, Auckland, New Zealand.

You can get to us when in Auckland by Ferry from the Downtown Auckland Wharf. Ferries leave every hour during the day but please click on the Fullers link found on the right hand side of this page for further details.



The Lazy Lounge was started in 1999 by two friends Nick Saunders and Patrick Thompson who wanted to settle on Waiheke but needed something to do make a living and keep them here. The building the Lazy Lounge is in is actually the original tea rooms in Oneroa and that dates back to the 1920’s. It had since become a house and through the commercial zoning Nick and Pat were able to bring the tea room spirit back to life and make it into the ‘institution’ that is now known as the Lazy Lounge. We are the Longest serving Café Owner/Operators on Waiheke and pride ourselves on that fact.

We attract all kinds of people from teens to pensioners, businesspersons to backpackers and offer them good value for money meals and a chilled out and relaxed atmosphere. The Lazy Lounge is Family Oriented and we have a small children’s area in the back of the garden just for those wee ones. We have an in house radio station ‘Waiheke Wireless 88.2 FM’ (keep checkin the website for further information soon) that keeps the smooth/funky/eclectic groove going in the café and provides the ‘theme music’ to the colourful visuals here at the Lazy Lounge.

We open at 8am and offer a wide selection to choose from for Breakfast and then meandering into a Scrumptious Lunch Menu, Pizza Menu and snack menu and beyond, including delights in our deli cabinet if you are only in the mood for a little munch !!.
We hope to be licensed for the summer of 2005 -2006 and give just that extra bit more for the evenings. In the meantime we offer the islands finest coffee freshly roasted here on Waiheke by Jane and Steve of ‘Island Coffee Roasters’…thanks you guys. The Lazy Lounge is proudly supportive of Local Suppliers and in turn is thankful for their support.
If you ask us, Waiheke Island is the best place in the world to live and be on.
Please pop in and say hi if you are in the Neighbourhood and you will understand why we think this way.
