It was my first time at this cafe. I ordered the plum crumble and it was the best crumble desert I ever had. It was served with yogurt and it was the best for me which is why I rate these guys 5 star. I will definitely go back there again and will try their lunch menu plus the plum crumble. Thank you for making me happy. I took the photo half way through of eating it 😎👍🍰☕

I really like the lockup, it's a bit cramped inside but they have a heated outdoor area and on a sunny day sitting outside is really nice. The cabinet food is well laid out, recommend the peanut rice salad and the apple cake. Coffee comes in a mug and is locally roasted Dark Horse. This has become my go-to local cafe and I recommend it, though if you could please leave me a seat inside that would be great.

Great coffee. Great counter food. The gems are amazing. Friendly service that has good systems for managing Covid-19 requirements.

Call in every Tuesday morning for a superb coffee ☕ with my old mate Darrel, don't always get food but the Cabinet always is inviting. The Staff are gems always welcoming.

Loved this little tucked away Cafe, especially the plum cake which was fantastic. More outside seating than I expected and a little playground for the kids too.

N. B.

Out for a cycle ride, called in for Coffee and Cake. Both excellent. Staff friendly and efficient. Health measures good.

Feb2021: tables were full, and the kitchen busy. I'm a sucker for coffee and cake. I got one of each to go, and waited under 10mins easy. I got a FULL cup of lovely hot flavoursome coffee and a gorgeous Sticky lemon slice. FYI, tables are outside so a heavier layer for warmth would be needed if the temp is low or there's a wind blowin.. Foot entrances via 2 streets. Coffee beans are Dark Horse.

This is the best little cafe on the Kapiti cost. The coffee is outstanding ❤️ thank you Grace. An excellent team spirit that keeps the quality of service and food at a great standard. I would also like to compliment the owners on their attention to sustainable environmental standards.

Love the friendly atmosphere this little place tucked away down an alleyway has. Great coffee, great food and you might even manage to grab yourself a gorgeous bunch of flowers.

M. H.

Location is behind spops but does work OK. Service was ok with food and drink a little slow to come out although in fairness the kitchen did look busy. Had a milkshake which was very refreshing. Do want to go again for coffee and a cooked meal.

K. M.

Best coffee, food, service and flowers in Kapiti. Love this place. So helpful as well.

R. B.

Great quality food, coffee and service. Also an outdoor doggie friendly area:)

m. c.

Nice little place away from main road outdoor indoor seating no table service have to pick up your order at the window

K. G.

Nice new option up on the coast. Coffee was nice. The cabinet treats look good, will try some next time!

R. F.

Awesome little set up. Kid friendly and awesome food and coffee! Looking forward to going back soon!

S. P.

On a sunny day, it is very nice to sit back and enjoy the tasty food and coffee. This is very casual place in the outdoor setting with takeaway plate and cup. This place is very popular on a nice day and it seems they are more popular than nearby cafe that used to be very popular. I saw lots of people here today and hardly any in the other.

J.

Lovely coffee, food & venue, especially if you are out walking your dog

M. O.

Simply the best coffee anywhere most of the time. Sometimes it's just average, but most times it's a great rich, strong coffee, and if you bring your own cup on a Tuesday it's a cheap coffee!

J. M.

Great area, most seats outside but some under cover, food selection good.

K. B.

Amazing coffee and such a cool setting. The food is great too. Always made to feel welcome.

G. C.

great Staff , great coffee and food, beaut atmosphere

I'm loving this new local eatery and have been here a few times now. Amazing coffee, friendly and fast service, lovely location and a great outdoor area. The food is delicious and there is such a great selection- my fave has got to be the cajun chicken open sandwich! I love how as a local business they support other local businesses, such as the flowers i've also purchased here. Looking forward to my next visit!

K. C.

Great to have a relatively new cafe at the beach. A great outdoor space makes it a good place for kids. Simple daily menu plus great counter food. My only reservation was the provision of plastic cutlery. Hoping that there is a move to bamboo soon!

M. P.

Good coffee and nice selection of cabinet food.

T. P.

Nice food, good coffee and a great little spot.

K. B.

Absolutely amazing service, I love that they have quick takeaway options and all the cups etc are compostable. Just what we needed on the Kapiti Coast! Amazing food and coffee! I will definitely be going back!

P. K.

Professor McFussy and I were introduced to keto gems some time ago and were delighted to find them here. Friendly people manned the counter. Coffee and gems arrived on our table soon after orders were placed. Great coffee. A bit hard to find but well worth the effort.

M. E.

Down the back alley, off the main road lays this quirky business. Coffee was good, food was standard cafe style.

C.

My favourite thing about this place is the fact that dogs are welcome so I can take mine for a coffee date, it's just down the road from the dog park too! They don't have Puppaccinos on the menu but they made one for my dog anyway! To the owner, I recommend adding puppacinos to the menu and you could perhaps collab with 'cats and dogs dinner' and sell some of their dog treats! Then you could advertise outside of the dog park. You're probably busy enough as it is though.

J. P.

Very nice food choices in a cool little spot tucked behind the Thai Marina restaurant. Garden seating which is sheltered from both northerly and southerly wind. YUMMY plum crumble - I go especially to get this delicious treat! Have some keto options which is also really nice to have - great service. Ex Te Horo cafe people if you know it - you'll love this spot... and the Cheese gems deserve a mention too...thumbs up to Jackie and the team

K. M.

Always good coffee, kai and the ladies provide an awesome service

A. H.

Limited menu but nice food. Spoiled by the yapping dog in the courtyard.

A. W.

A great new addition to the Kapiti Cafe scene. Fabulous cabinet food and friendly staff. Large outdoor area makes it better on fine days. My go to favorite.

W. K.

Outdoor, covered and heated seating area an attraction during winter month. Small playgroud to keep kids entertained while adult enjoying their cuppa. Child friendly.

A.

Fantastic food, great coffee and chilled out vibe in Paraparaumu Beach. Tucked away, slightly off the beaten track - its well worth finding. Ask for one of Jackie’s famous cheese gems. Or grab an award winning ice cream. Highly recommend.

H. F.

Good food and coffee. Staff were friendly.

K. H.

Fantastic outdoor setting. Plenty of seating and friendly service. Place for children to play, dogs to chill and bikes to park. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

The staff are onto it! They actually listen and get your order right....which so often doesn't happen in many establishments... They care about what they are doing...friendly and efficient ...great coffee (and I'm particularly fussy) Dark Horse...the best around in my opinion if your a lover of dark roast...
