Delicious baked goods, excellent coffee, nice staff. Great stop if you're heading through on Highway 2 towards Wellington.
We tried the caramel cake - not too sweet and very moist crumb with a not too sweet cream cheese (?) and caramel icing, served with whipped cream. Good value for $6.50 NZD, coffee and cappuccino were solid. Lots of delicious offerings in the case and a few savory options as well like lasagna, blue cheese and bacon croissants.
The place is full of locals meeting up for coffee and sweets. Good vibe, good wifi (you have to ask for the code) only downfall is that the bathrooms are in the back and you have to go outside to get to them.
If we were ever in the area we would definitely return. read more
