Reviews of Vanessa's Cottage Cafe
D. B.The pie I brought was full of meat and mushrooms, was an exceptional pie. Would highly recommend stopping here for coffee and cake as have a wonderful selection amongst other delicious delights. AAA+++
J. S.Great pies, just get in early (before 12, but ideally before 11am) otherwise you will miss out on the mince and cheese and steak and cheese or other popular flavours. No picture because that pie was on its way into my mouth soon as I put it down on the table 🤣
The baking also looks awesome but one pie is enough for me!!
K. F. t. C. N.We both ordered the steak, cheese and bacon pie... Oh my word, the chunks of steak and bacon were generous, we could definitely taste the cheese and there was just the right amount of gravey. The pastry was light and flakey...... It was a winner and well worth stopping off at.
M. H.Great food, everything is a decent size very tasty, recommend the pies, coffee in a real mug, steak bacon n cheese pie, big chunks tender steak😋
F. C.This place is a hidden gem!
They have amazing homemade pies, great selection of baked goods, enormous cinnamon oysters and a menu for breakfast and lunch.
Defiantly stop in here on your way through
M. F.This hidden gem was recommended by Moeraki locals. Never knew Moeraki is famous for its seafood. Ordered the paua (abalone) pie and beef and oyster pie and they were amazing. The pastry was light and buttery, the paua was cooked perfectly. Such a bargain for under $8 a pie that's full of paua inside.
The americano coffee was really good too. Highly recommended.
T. D.This is a gr8 Cafe, lots of variety, staff gr8, Tim's pies are delicious, coffee gr8. Do drop in there definitely delicious. Fantastic bluecod lunch
D. S.After the Boulders we decided to stop for coffee. Vanessa’s cottage has good reviews so we decided to stop...
And it was definitely worth it!!
We ordered the Coffee walnut slice which was very tasty.
I had the Tea - loose leafs lemon & ginger. Big portion (2.5 cups of tea).
My friends had long black and short black. The long black is served as a short one and they bring hot water so you can decide how strong you want it! My friends loved it!!
The interior is quite funky.
Nice staff;
Cute garden to chill if you’re not bothered by the traffic passing by.
S. L.Great lunch stop!
This is a great place to stop for lunch on the way from Oamaru to Dunedin - several people had recommended this and we can see why. The coffee was very good and the pies were just sensational - delicious filling and beautiful home made pastry. The staff were very friendly and it was great to sit outside in the lovely garden.
J. T.The fact I'm a regular here should speak for itself. This is wedges pure Decadence on a plate also try the pies but be early They go pretty fast .and there many varieties all homemade
A. T.Lovely little cafe. Excellent food and service. Was also open nice and early, which suited me.
P. O.We always stop here, great food for giants and anyone who's hungry. The best hot choc ever. My sister got eggs Benedict with bacon and I had the seafood chowder so so good we were so full but we took away some of vanessa's famous pies and fudge. We'll be back. 👍👍👍👍
p. w.The best fish and chips...in New Zealand, pretty much!
Situated on the side of the road in a little town called Hampden, there's nothing unusual about the little cottage apart from the banner flapping in the wind proclaiming, "Vanessa's Cafe."
There's a few picnic tables scattered around the front lawn but the magic of small town hospitality is found within the yellow cottage.
You're greeted with an appetising food cabinet and polite, friendly staff happy to take your order. Coffee is delicious and hot, and the "must order" fish and chips is massive and yet will not make you feel as though you've ingested half the oil in the deep fryer with your meal.
Meals are also served promptly and still hot which is a must on a cold, wet day like today.
Prices tend to be on the more expensive side but for what you get, this is definitely worth it.
5 stars, and happy to drop by anytime I'm on State Highway 1.
T. T.Unbelievably great coffee & everything was made in their kitchen. There were huge muffins, pies (Had to buy the paua pie & oyster pie) delicious & yum! Along with also large vegetable frittata and lots of other amazing looking food choices. Super friendly & a must call in on your way south. I’m sorry Oamaru but wait till Hampton and stop in here. Will be back. Thank you 👌🏻😊👏🏻
F. P.Consistently superb food. The chicken and mushroom filo pastry pies (with a side serve of the world's freshest salad) are to die for.
L. B.Great service and food people Great to deal with would recommend 👌
L. T.Great coffee, and the yummy whitebait patty! An unassuming cafe serving nice food at great price.
D. M.Super food, reasonable prices, and friendly staff. More than a pie shop, really good home baking.
S. W.Great cafe, food was delicious definitely worth stopping in with indoor and outdoor seating.
P. K.We had fish and chips. The fish had the lightest batter and tasted delicious. I also brought 2 salmon Quiche pies to take home. Just got them from the freezer and heated them up. Only intended to eat half and have the rest tomorrow but it tasted so good we ate the lot. I will get more next time.
K. H. L.Great service, gorgeous and deliciously flaky pies. Good coffee too.
G. B.Great and fantastic bacon and egg sandwich. It was served cold but was brilliant with a great relish. The coffee was okay but not the best that I have had.
B.Delicious blue Berry muffins and good coffee and a good mince pie
W. E.When you have this vintage car in your backyard I have to stop. Eat a salad with salmon. Absolute delicious freah and the waitress was awesome.
L. C.Food is outstanding 👌 lovely service and great value for money
H. S.Vanessa's is one of the best cafes on New Zealand's State HIghway 1. Big call, I know. But the service is excellent - Vanessa is a gem, and the pies are out of the ordinary. I love the paua pie, and the lamb's fry and bacon. Buttery flaky pastry filled up tie gunwhales with tasty chunks and surrounded by thick gravy. The welcome is always warm, and Vanessa always smiling. Get in quick in the day to secure your favourite pie!
L. S.Had eggs on toast and eggs Benedict, both excellent. Friendly service, perfectly cooked eggs, warm cozy Cafe and loved the quirky garden. Worth stopping in!
C. S.Vanessas Cottage Cafe is a awesome cafe. It has great pies all sorts of combinations like bacon steak and cheese. I had a steak one and the pieces of beef were very big and they were extremely nice. We also had a peach and passion fruit muffin. Great coffee too. We sat outside and was nice watching the traffic go by, however lots of people stopped to go into Cafe. I would definitely go there again.🙂
S. G.Well we just stopped to get a coffee to go, so glad we did. What a cute, warm, funky little cafe!
Good coffee and yummy looking food, and art for sale. Oh and very nice staff :)
Make sure you stop and check them out!
M. R.Stopped for a takeaway coffee on the way to Moeraki Boulders. Nice cottage cafe, very busy on the Sunday we called in, so a bit of a wait for coffee but understandable. Also a few bits of jewellery for sale.
G. C.Great food and drinks, real friendly staff ,
C. S.Great coffee, yummy food. Nice place to relax with a coffee with friends or on your own. Friendly staff.
M. W.Lovely food. At a guess some items home cooked so try the macaroni cheese. Good location and friendly staff
W. W.Had a lovely pie and a coffee for breakfast. Pies were made in house, really flaky tops and tasty fillings.
s. f.The best ever fish and chips
They are a must have lunch cheers
From the team at Back Paddock Garden
R.Always stop here when passing love it... great paua pies
D.By far the best pies I've ever had. Best location, one of the best muffins and coffee
Such an underestimated place.
Highly reccomended!
G. J.Really good size meals and the blue cod is to die for. Hubby and I dine there regularly, enjoy the ambience, and will often take home a delicious homemade pie or one of their delicious cinnamon oysters 😋
R.Great food - pies are fantastic.
M. K.The staff are super friendly, and it was a such a cute cafe. They were accommodating of our dietary requirements, and the portion sizes are generous. The food options are great! I definitely recommend this cafe !
R.Great customer service yummy food 😋
A. M.Lovely cafe
Spotless, friendly, with delicious food.
Some of the best pies in NZ. Seen the breakfasts but can't get past the pie. Is it rude to have both?
N. P.My daughter has lived in Dunedin for the last few years, I visit 6-7 times a year. To give you an idea of how good the food actually is, l not only time my trips so I'm in the vicinity at a justifiable mealtime, and make sure I'm good and hungry l also buy some for the next day. Never had food or service that that wasn't excellent. Pointless to recommend something but if you want their full selection of homemade pies get there before 11.30am.
M. B.Food is amazing, the best pies all homemade and good prices. Superb service, sometimes hard to find a seat it's that busy! Highly recommend stopping here.
D. H.Well worth the stop excellent food and service.
h. C.Found this place today while passing through for a takeaway quick bite on our travels. The food was AMAZING, the savory and sweet muffins were both fresh, soft and huge, the quiche huge and very flavourful, while the coffees were both perfect. Service was very friendly and super quick. Thank you.
R. D.The pies!!! Always have to stop here for a pie (even though I'm gluten free I'm make a sacrifice for one) delicious coffees and pies. Oh and the sausage roles. So good. The customer service is always on point and super welcoming.
C.Fantastic place! a truly hidden gem on your drive down to Dunedin. We stopped here after a delightful weekend trip to Mt Cook, this cafe was a true compliment to the trip. The indoor environment has been well decorated and exudes sophistication. Furthermore, the wonderful decorations were a delight to admire whilst drinking my coffee, which I must say was nicely made. The customer service was stupendous, my friends and I were made to feel very welcome. Overall a lovely cafe.
S. K.This place is just amazing. They have got one of the best coffees. the homemadepies and other savories are just one level up. This place never lets you down.
L.Fantastic choices of GF ..great place to stop
H. A.Great food, lovely and clean and very friendly staff.
M. L.Such a buzz there as lots of folks seem to know it's great and I really enjoyed my first visit. Great coffee and food.
D. &. D. A.Pop in at level 3. This team needs our custom. Their food is ready and girls are excited to catch especially Vanessa after her break away. Always top. Service always top and food top and coffees the best. We will continue to keep popping down to see the team💞❤️💞
J. D.Always great food and coffee. Staff are friendly and go out of their way to provide good service. 😀
K. S.Ohh the giant cinnamon oysters, delicious homemade food, coffee and cute little cottage setting, to relax and watch the world go by. Best cafe in NZ
W.Lovely breakfast and great coffee. Awesome finish to great weekend
T. W.Wonderful! Not much more to be said.
We had breakfast there after staying at a nearby campground. The portions were quite large and the quality was very good. My wife had the pancakes and I had bacon and egg. We were both full when we had finished.
We also bought two huge muffins to have later in the day which were also very good.
K. A.Very pleasant cafe with lovely food. Well worth stopping at. Had a melt in the mouth Lamb Shank with mash etc. 10/10! Everything else looked just as good. Look forward to trying fish and seafood chowder next time. Also nice clean toilets.
B.Nice place 👌 great food
J.Came here during my Summer break and I always remember how delicious the pies were. Can never forget Vanessa's Cottage Cafe Pies, they are awesome! The sandwiches were just as good as well! Definitely recommend stopping in if you're going to be passing by. Friendly customer service too!
A. R.Geat Food, Very Reasonable Prices. Good Service. Goes the Extra Mile. Worth a Visit if you are passing through Hampden. A Hidden Gem
c. j. j.Amazing selection of food. Slices and cakes are a fabulous size. Cheese rolls are to die for!!! Great coffee too. 👍☕
K.Recommend the good service and Great food
C.Customer service is great as always, but the quality of some of the food has dropped recently — eggs tasted a bit watery. The sausages and coffee still fantastic though. Still a great place for lunch passing through.
D. S.I had a great time having my meal with my other half.The person serving us was very delightful. It felt like you are being welcome especially when you visited your grandna back then you were young. Thank so much. Great service.
S. K. O.Good selection off food. Happy with coffee and sweet. However I got the mussel pie and was disappointed. Mussles used were the marinated ones.
Staff friendly
C. E.Great menu, Great Coffee. We stopped for breakfast, which was splendid. My daughter and I had breakfast selections and my husband had the fish pie. Very flaky crust on the pie and salmon quiche. Baked goods were delicous, we did take away for scone and muffin, fresh out of the oven.
J. E.Great stop for a coffee and a pie! Lots of healthy options too.
M. M.Food great, selection awesome, portion sizes way bigger than most Cafes. Coffee g8 and staff fantastic. Well worth a visit. :)
L. C.We always stop here on our way to Dunedin. Disappointed today. Long wait for the coffee and the blueberry and white chocolate muffins had few berries and we couldn't taste any chocolate.
M. R.Stopped for take away coffee, service was fast, they had good looking food on display
S.Lovely food and friendly ladies
H. C.Such a wonderful array of delicious food, and meals if required. Very good coffee, and such friendly service..superb tasty pies to die for.
D. C.What a delight to find this cafe on the side of State Highway 1. No detours or going off the main road to find it. I only had coffee to go, but it was a GOOD coffee and I was able to stretch my legs by looking around The Hidden Herbery at the rear of the cafe. Great place to stop if you want to keep going.
H.Great fresh and tasty food
B. H.The oyster steak and bacon pie is AWESOME and the staff there on the 25th were lovely. Amusing seagulls too and a pretty garden
M. H.Nice coffee, although an extra shot would have made it just right and fresh, appetising cabinet food. Would definately revisit.
J. J.Such a busy wee place - great variety of cabinet food & menu options. Decilious lunch thanks.
T.Great atmosphere great food
E. W.Great choice plus gluten free.
We really enjoyed our break at Vanessas cafe so many choices must try the sea food chowder next time .

S. H.Great little gem. Pies have to be one of the best I've had. Food is local and great value for money. Coffees good
M. R.Awesome, friendly service, great coffee, cafe food made on site, what more could you ask for? Be prepared to wait (good) as they are a popular stop, its worth it.
D.Wow..this wee place is nothing short of delightful. Popular with a never ending stream of travellers and well to do who have breezed in to experience treats from a wonderfully home made menu from everything to the crunchiest and buttery honey crumpets to absolutely delicious seafood chowder using nearby bluff oysters. The coffee is excellent and expect the barista to bring you your coffee out in the front garden. Beautiful tables set amongst gorgeous flowers and greenery. At the back make sure you visit Rick in his serene and surprising herbery. A lovely selection of all herbs, greens, flowers and veg. Mouth watering. Be sure to ask about the oyster plant! If you love oysters....This darling surprise package I rate 10 out of 5!
D.Great coffee
