He was very happy with the food and coffee..very nice head of staff an elderly gent and warmly engaging in a relaxed style. Top job all round by chef and staff, will call in again and recommend anyone traveling through Tirau to drop in and enjoy...

A fantastic family run restaurant, the food here is way beyond what you are expecting and you can tell the quality by how many locals are in the venue. Very kid friendly too. Caters for all, from a coffee and a fabulous slice of cake/cheesecake/pie to a gourmet meal. The opening times on Google are a bit off saying opens at midnight, the only late opening place in the area we found and glad it was, stop in if passing, you’ll not regret it!
We ate here last week. The place looks decent and the outdoor area seems nice. I ordered a portion of their salads… but Loose Goose should be embarrassed with the pathetic amount they served for 14.50. When a customer has to approach the counter with salad in hand and ask if you’re taking the piss or not, then maybe re-evaluate your portion sizes. One might think they are in Central Auckland otherwise. (The salad is pictured, but the photo doesn’t do my point justice even in the large bowl) My sister ordered the kids platter for around 15 (pictured) which was a joke also, containing a small amount of banana, strawberry, orange, cucumber, carrot, hummus and some meatballs Before leaving we got a salted caramel slice ‘to go’, the server seemed put out that I had a preference of which one I would like… but no 2 slices were the same size! Not even close! Of course I’m going to ask for the biggest slice. The caramel on top was nice, but the base was undercooked. The only reason I’m giving 2 stars is because the salads actually did taste good, and the meatballs that came with the kids platter were tasty also. If you desire value for money then definitely skip this place.
Awesome! Tasty sausage roll with roast vege salad. Great little vibe.
Awesome little cafe. Great coffee and fast service. Worth the 30 mins extra to our journey
A healthy lunch with pan fried Red Gurnard fish and a summer salad consisting of baby fennel, oranges, free range chicken and rocket with a light sauce at "The Loose Goose" . Food : 4/5 Service : 4/5 Price : Place : 3/5
Celebrated mum's birthday there last night. What a fabulous place. Meals were delicious and service warm and friendly. A hidden gem in Tirau. Will make a point of stopping by and tasting the fabulous looking cakes I saw in the cabinet another time.
This small comfy hole in the wall at the edge of town will deceive you. You think you'd get a decent burger or fish n chips. Instead you will get absolute five star perfection. The fish was succulent and bursting with flavor. The lamb shanks just melted off the bone into creamy potatoes. What should be a fine dining establishment, is a friendly pit stop with charming service and atmosphere. Passing it up is a mistake.
