An incredible spot in the very cute town of Te Anau. They have some seating outside but I actually…read morerecommend going across the street to the Te Anau Gardens for a beautiful view while you eat (obviously only if the weather is good). I've been obsessed with meat pies since I got to New Zealand and this didn't disappoint. We got 4 things: 1. Chicken Brie and cranberry (seasonal special) 2. Venison and plum sauce 3. Lamb and mint 4. Sausage roll The seasonal Brie and cranberry was by far my favorite with delicious Thanksgiving-esque flavors. Would strongly recommend in you swing by around when they have this. The lamb and venison were incredible. I particularly enjoyed the plum sauce making the venison incredibly tender. All 3 were on the heavier side which matches my palette, but maybe not yours! Side note: the sausage roll was fantastic. One of the better ones I've had in New Zealand!

We ended up coming here for breakfast one day, lunch another, and pre-dinner snacks another. My favorite thing I ordered here was the veggie stack for brunch/breakfast. They serve brekkie here until 11:30am and their poached eggs are where it is at! Their baked goods are also fresh, dense, and worth every cent. They change up their specialty scones daily at the front pastry container at the cashier. My favorite was the cheese scone - I had two of these in one day! When it's good, it's good! My friend enjoyed the fruit muesli baked slice as well as her ham and egg benedict. They have clean restrooms in the back, free WiFi, and a patio for smokers in the back as well. Service was good and free water is available with glasses in the cooler. I can't say enough about this place - what a great!

If you give the barista clear instructions you will get coffee just as you like it - they are very good. The shop attached has a good range with reasonable prices too.

Plenty of outdoor seating -picnic tables, old electric spools, and lounge chairs make this a fun and comfortable place. The food is made by Paris transplants who take great pride in their work.

If you're a vegan traveler using Queenstown as a base for long day trips, I highly recommend grabbing a few of these Sammie's to go. They are perfect for taking along on excursions. Be sure to arrive early because the lines get very long and popular items sell out quickly. Even my non-vegan relatives were obsessed with the pastries, so it is truly a spot where everyone can find something to love.

We ordered the pasta of the day - creamy mushroom fettucini and also tried the warm venison salad. All were delicious. We were curious about venison since we had passed so many pastures of them on the drive in and I definitely recommend it. The venison was cooked just right - medium rare. I appreciated that the salad had just the right balance of cheese and nuts added. Mushroom fettucini was delicious as well.
