As far as quality and price, this place is the best stop for a bite to eat in this town. My…read moreboyfriend and I popped in for some warm seating and a hot meal. He ordered the chicken wrap and I ordered the ciabatta with cream cheese and marmalade. It came with three pieces of fresh bread grazed with a lemony sweet marmalade and delicious cream cheese. I separated the bacon because the combination was weird to me but I ate it after and it was a nice finish. Overall, a very satisfying meal. The chicken wrap was flavorful and hot, a tad bit greasy/drippy but overall satisfying. We also ordered some english breakfast tea and a flat white which came with a small taste of chocolate fudge. Our total was $27 which was fair in comparison to some of the other few options in town. I'm glad we looked around and settled on this spot. They also have a lot of knick knacks and variety of things to browse from lotions and bug repellents to books and jewelry. I would recommend a visit.

And wow, what a cozy ambiance and darling spot that fits the small town vibe perfectly. The interior decoration matches the charm of the building's exterior perfectly - moody, cozy, vintage and intellectual. I love all of the nods to the town's history and New Zealand with the artwork and decor. Because we were outside of typical lunch hours and had just eaten, we didn't have much of an appetite and just split the BBQ brisket sandwich. Fare and prices are a bit on the higher end because it's an elevated gastropub, so note that when visiting. We liked but didn't love the sandwich - good enough for a quick pit stop! Service was friendly but we got the sense that splitting a meal was a bit frowned upon. Nonetheless, a cozy spot to get out of the rain with darling decor and exterior patio seating when not wet!

We were seated fast and ordered 2 coffees and pancakes with a pastry. My biggest standout were the pancakes, I'm a simple guy who likes my pancakes and they were oh so fluffy, chewy, dense and honestly that filled me up surprisingly a lot because I wasn't expecting them to be so big. They put real cherries and cream on top. The serving sizes are definitely generous. I recommend them for their breakfast and coffee, especially for the central location, great view and seating areas.

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.
