We stopped here to take a quick restroom break on our way to the waterfall track and recalled a local who had recommended visiting this place. She couldn't remember the name but the way she described it made it obvious to us when we saw it along the roadside. I'm so glad we stopped by. It was a nice break from the endless rolling hill farmland drive. We were here on the weekend and it was busy but didn't feel overcrowded. It's probably packed in the summer but if you can stop by here it is definitely worthwhile!

Coffee is good and a good variety of food selection, both cabinet and cooked. It is a bit pricey for a small town establishment but it needs to be to survive and I'm use to it being from a big city. I think it's just a nice novelty to even have a good local cafe in a small town that you could miss in a blink if you don't keep an eye out.

Nice portion size, not dry at all, and the dates add just the right amount of sweetness. Super delish! I also had a flat white, and it was delicious as well. The perfect brekkie!

This was the best dining experience I had during my 3-week trip of Aotearoa New Zealand…read more I ordered the grilled orange roughy that came with puréed kumara, roasted veggies, and bacon butter. It was beautiful as it was delicious! All the flavors and textures were harmonious. The fish was light and flaky, the puréed kumara was silky smooth, and the veggies and bacon provided the crunch. Top it all with lemon and the acidity balanced the fattiness of the bacon butter. Also, you can't go wrong with any dish that comes with bacon! As far as service, infinity stars! First of all, the ambience is so inviting. It was cold and rainy that day. The restaurant is essentially like a cabin, fireplace and all. And the woman who greeted us did so warmly. She has this positive vibe and you can't help but feel welcomed. She's also very efficient! She took our names when we placed our orders since she knew we were going to be paying separately. But her memory is so good that she knew our names when we were at the counter. I highly recommend this place and I would love to come back in the future.

Also known as The Yellow Diner on film. In Pete's Dragon by Disney it featured a scene. At the end of the day we had to move on But we're glad we stopped by, next time let's have the scones!

Along with having a prime location along the pedestrian only strip of Jetty St with easy parking along Vogel, it has great art just outside and also inside the courtyard area. The fact that paint buckets and scaffolding had been set up inside didn't deter people at all from collecting inside Heritage, a testament to the effort put into designing the cafe. Our experience was determinedly efficient yet friendly. As a full service cafe, Heritage offers all your caffeinated needs along with a solid pastry, sandwich, and salad selection. Still and sparkling water are self-serve, but all other in-house orders are hand-delivered to your table. There's a range of seating options too: outdoor tables, a long counter perfect for people watching, and booths. Somehow everything fits neatly into the space without seeming patched together. According to the website, booths can be booked in advance too. My family enjoyed our Flat Whites and a Mocha (served with two marshmallows). The Friand had raspberry filling inside, and actually tasted more like sweet rice flour than almond flour - delicious even if it wasn't what we were expecting. I haven't been this excited by a bathroom for a while, but hopefully once you've made the trip you'll be excited too. Look for the door that's perfectly camouflaged along the wooden wall of the courtyard to find three separate bathroom stalls. Amongst the sparkling white furniture, something seems amiss. Before you drip your washed hands all over the floor, check behind the mirror for some truly efficient use of space (and paper towels)!
