As my title suggests, this sweet little café could be the best kept secret in the central North Island - it's certainly the coffee and food jewel of Turangi! Creel café has a rustic, homely, warm ambience with lovely music, great service and a wonderful...More

Nice food but expensive. Beautiful spot and dog friendly. Nice shopping too for women as well as blokes.

Just right next door to Creel Lodge, this has plenty of variety and your food is prepared onthe psot served up directly. Lovely , friendly service. A great start to the day.
