Disgusting at best
Doughy scones and tiny amount of butter.
Tea served in takeaway cup and mostly milk.
Worst place we've been in for years

Worst lunch we have experienced. Definitely give this place a wide berth. Food less than average, some inedible. This used to be an amazing cafe but is less than a takeaway bar

This place is clearly only surviving because of being the only place in town. Keep driving. Crispy chicken sandwich was nothing but fried breading. We asked for ketchup to go with our fries and were told it was $1 per packet. Nothing in the store has prices on it. Staff is not very friendly. Overall just not a good place to stop.

Great little corner shop and cafe conveniently located on the corner of Kingston's Kent St or main road, and only a 30–40-minute drive to Queenstown.

This is the only place in Kingston and as a venue for a meal it might be wise to avoid unless it is a matter of starvation. The offering was basic pies, sausage rolls and fired stuff that had been heated via lamps for an unknown time. All self-serve which was not that great.
