It is part of the iconic New Zealand story.

    Our visit was very pleasant, however our 4 steak meals were too over done & partially burnt as we asked for well done x3 & medium well. When desert was being prepped we could see the chef from our table using his hands to place an ice cream scoop on the brownie..

    Food was good service was good. However we went there for my husband's birthday thinking his meal was free ( because of his birthday) we were very disappointed when we had to pay for his meal because apparently you need to.order 4 adult meals to qualify for a free birthday meal. That's just ridiculous and there was nothing in the e mail saying there needed to.be 4 adult meals purchased .

    The service was friendly but unfortunately the table was never cleared and there was a stack of dirty plates on the table until we asked someone to remove them. The beef schnitzel was awful and was sent back - we are not incredibly picky but this was a miss.

    We had an absolutely fantastic experience at Cob n Co Taupo. Our waiter was fantastic! Great with the kids and very funny. Really made the experience. The kids meals came out fast and they were entertained for ages with the puzzles and little animals, straws and umbrellas in their drinks. Adult meals were delicious. Highly recommend dining here!

    It was an enjoyable meal, very filling. They were short staff which is not their fault, as this did affect how long meals come out. Totally understand! Enjoyed by all the family, always a great place to take kids and value for money and very friendly!

    Our table of 6 enjoyed the food. Service however was poor. We were not offered water. Our mains were quick. Dessert however didn’t appear and our mains plates not removed from table. Therefore we left without desert and disappointed in what up until then had been an enjoyable experience.

    We found Cobb & Co perfect for taking our Grandchildren out to dinner. Service was great and combined with the options available for children we were very happy with this family restaurant. Food was also very good with a large range available.

    Food was excellent, friendly staff but two small blips with the kids meals meant a low service rating. The cobbs never came out and the deserts were delivered 30 mins after the request was made which for a kid is like an hour. The kids got restless and we had to remind two waitresses

    Food was terrible. Undercooked & cold steak. Old chips. Kids Mac n cheese was pasta tost in oil. No flavour on food. And the waiter definitely doesn't know how to deal with complaint. Asking the customer what to do about it. Cost us $100 on food we didn't eat. My burger from McDonald's was at least hot and fresh. Won't come up. Neither recommend

    Great place for kids, special drinks exciting themed deserts , adults menu has a lot of good options but the food is below sub standard . However we keep coming back but in future won't order for the adults. The prices are very reasonable maybe increase the prices to increase the quality of the mains.
