My wife is very fussy, she was v complimentary on the coffee- v important, and the date scone. Lovely outdoor seating area which gets plenty of sun even in the morning.

On our way to Invercargill stopped in Athol for a coffee only to find the power was off. The guy behind the counter was delightfl and recommended this place as an alternative. Lovely staff, great coffee and nice place....great recomendation

There were lots of people in here eating brunch when we stopped to get ice cream. I saw that they have the hokey pokey flavor that I read everyone should try while in New Zealand - and I did. It is very sweet and I liked it.

Really nice staff. Really good coffee. And a tasty venison pie. A good lunch stop on our bike ride from Kingston to Lumsden

Stopped at The Hide Cafe while road tripping around south island. The staff were amazing. They were super friendly. I had the best hot chocolate there. The portions are huge. So not only was there a delicious breakfast but didn't feel hungry after. Highly recommended!!!!
