This little gem is our go to cafe for when we travel south. The food is really nice, good value for money and excellent customer service no matter how busy they get

We were craving avocado on toast and pancakes. We stopped at this cafe and didn’t have high expectations but it was amazing! The avo was whipped with feta and it was delicious and so big we couldn’t finish it! The pancakes were nice and fluffy with plenty of bacon and banana. Mocca was yum

On a road trip of NZ, stopped off for some coffees and teas, I don’t think the staff here have heard of service with a smile, or heard of apologising if they get something wrong. Just some basic politeness would have been great. Coffee nice but tea was cold, water was not boiling hot. Had to ask for another one. Don’t mind if people get things wrong but a bit more personality from the staff would be fab.

Good selection of cafe food. Service was a bit grumpy, might have been a bad day, but no teapots, so couldn't provide tea! Overcame this by suggesting the tea bag could go directly into the mug. Apple slice was double the expected size and tasty.

We stopped here on the way back to Wellington. It is a no fail reliable place to get good food. They have a wide range of counter food as well as fried chicken and a menu to choose from. The food is classic old Kiwi cafe food. The decor is also very 1970s. They have a bathroom in the same style. They make a very good coffee. Would recommend the custard squares and milkshakes.
