Seriously best coffee I’ve ever had. Also really cosy place. Interestingly, I spoke to the manager about the signed rugby balls and apparently many famous international rugby players such as Beauden Barrett and Damian Mckenzie are regular customers here!

We visited this place for the first time, and it was as wonderful as I expected. The original coffee is delicious, the cakes are delicious, and you can enjoy the natural scenery. No work is allowed (no laptops, tablets, etc.), so please be careful if you are working from home. Let's just relax and enjoy the scenery here.

A really great cup of coffee in a lovely house with friendly staff and a few parking spots. A little gem of a place, least where you would expect there to be one!
