An hour wait and lies.
May 2021 • Couples
Arrived and ordered food and drinks. Drinks came promptly but the food did not. Waited well over an hour only to follow it up and be told it was being plated right now. Waited a further 15 minutes and found out they had only just placed the order. Paid for my drinks and immediately left. We were not going to wait a another hour and be lied too again.

Disappointed
Apr 2021 • Friends
Have taken friends here for several years. However last trip was disappointing. No longer serving platters leaving the Menu bland. Twice our meals were not right and the service average. Sadly won't be promoting the Cafe any more

Room for improvement

Food was nice. View is a bit wasted when sitting. Service needs improvement. Very quick to clear the table but not to offer to get more drinks or food. Table of 4 for lunch not a busy day. Sorry team

We'll be back
Apr 2021 • Family
Came with family and a friend to celebrate her birthday. Both the food and the cider were lovely. It was nice to be somewhere that serves a range of off the beaten track drinks, for which the tasting paddles are a great intro.

We had a wonderful and relaxing time, with great views, friendly competent staff, and to top it off we could bring our dog.

Might be permanently closed?
Mar 2021
Well we saw the signs for this place on the drive into Tauranga, detoured off to have a look and then at the entrance it says closed Monday and Tuesday... ok... so we come back Wednesday, and now it has a big sign saying closed, so who knows when they will open again. No wonder businesses are failing if this is what they do.

Save yourself some time and don’t even bother.

Scrumptious lunch.

Another scrumptious lunch at the Cider Factorie. The battered fish is a favourite. The weather was beautiful which makes the setting superb. Friendly service. Good wine.

and I thought I didnt like cider ...
Jul 2020 • Friends
A random visit to Te Puna and we saw the sign for the cider factory and though why not. One of our group loved cider but the rest of us could take it or leave it. Rustic atmosphere and friendly staff found us trying some samples, the lemony Pickett the biggest surprise with the Feijoa/ apple the favourite overall. We are now converted cider lovers. After all the tasting we ordered some truffle fries to help absorb the alcohol as it was only about midday. They too were excellent. We will be back, a definite stop for us now in Tauranga.
Cheers and enjoy
