Full disclosure they told me upfront that it would be about a 30min wait once my order was placed and it took about that much time. No biggie, we are on island time! I ordered coffee, chili egg toast with bacon and a side of fries. All were delicious but it was entirely too much food for one person. I could have done without the tasty fries. I would recommended you try this place but be patient or choose another spot if you're in a hurry. High recommend you give it a try!

We had to wait outside a bit for a table. It was pretty annoying to be kicked off the wifi for no reason halfway through and having to rejoin though The servers were nice, though we barely interacted with them aside from ordering and them delivering our food. The food and drinks came out pretty fast, which was nice Overall a good place, my only complaint being the wifi issue and the fact that the bathroom feels like its in the backrooms of a supply closet

A friend recommended this place to me so on one of the mornings I got up to try it out. I came in…read morearound 7:30am and there were only a few other tables occupied. I ordered my go-to breakfast item, which is their Vudu Benedict ($30NZD), along with a cup of their Housemade Lemon Honey Ginger ($6). You order at their counter in the middle of the shop, and then they give you a number to take to your table. The tea came out pretty quickly, and the benedict followed maybe about 10 minutes after. The benedict was good, and while there was only 1 egg, the whole thing stuffed me for hours afterwards. The bread at the bottom was definitely the most filling part, and I was struggling to finish it all. They had a glass display with various bakery items, and they looked so good I was so tempted to get something even though I was stuffed from the benedict. If I ever come back to Queenstown I would definitely be coming back here to try some of those bakery items.

No big deal so I headed to that location since there are two locations on Apple Maps. I ordered number 8 bagel which is essentially a bacon, egg n cheese. It was pretty tasty but I did not like the tomato sauce on it (probably bc I'm from the states and am only use to 57 lol). I also got a side hash brown which was slightly better than a mcdo hash brown. I got the Nutella donut which I thought would be filled but it was only a dallop on top (still really good and probably my favorite part of the meal). I chased it down with an iced americano. Once is enough for me but def give it a try!

It happened to be a lovely, dark latte boasting nutty flavors. It was exceptionally strong and not a tad bitter; in fact, I barely tasted the milk. I almost thought I was eating dark chocolate! The lady that works here was extremely welcoming, informative, and efficient with orders. Though they don't have Wi-Fi, it's a lovely spot to catch a quick morning caffeine boost or afternoon pick me up. Highly recommend stopping by if you're a coffee connoisseur. Done enjoying your drink? There's a water fountain, too, for a quick palate cleanser! (Or to be used to enjoy a second drink...!)

Service was friendly and deliver your drinks upstairs so you can safely manage the boat steps to the rooftop deck.

Their passionfruit cheesecake was unique and tasty as well. There's a lot of seating area and if you get lucky to sit upstairs in the window you have a very nice view. Also upstairs is an opportunity to see them making some of their products behind a glass window. Overall, their desserts are very tasty, and upstairs is unique, but I would not say it was the best desserts I have had. The server also seemed slightly annoyed when we asked for it to-go because she assumed we would be staying to eat. Still a very solid dessert place but I think because of their popularity makes the staff stressed and other customers rushing for you to hurry up.
