Description: The original Joe's Garage opened in 2000, situated in an old Post Office sorting room in Queenstown. There are now seven Joe's around NZ and the concept is the same now as it was then- to be a Cafe that everybody can go to and enjoy exceptional coffee and food presented by attentive and enthusiastic staff, listen to cool music, and above all, have a lot of fun in an efficient "garage" environment.

Friendly staff and really good food. Perfect to warm us up in the cold month of June! The chicken fried steak pictured was amazing

If you need coffee when every other cafes are closed, this place is the go-to for a coffee rescue (as the sign says). Nice dim decor and good coffee!

I waited an HOUR! to recieve my food while the rest of my group had already eaten! Myself and another friend had to pick off other peoples plates! I was the first to order and LAST to get my food and not once did anyone check to see if everything was ok?!?!!?!?!?! After receiving my food it was burnt and rubbery! The only thing that was enjoyable was the coleslaw and kumara chips from another place! DEFINITELY NOT A PLACE TO RETURN TO!

This place has great coffee, worth doing an explore down the back lanes just for the coffee. The food is also good but more of a standard menu.
