Reviews of Okere Falls Store + Craft Beer Garden
M.
Awesome spot. Great coffee, delicious food with good portion sizes, friendly service & very accomodating to our wee one. Highly recommend stopping by.
J.
What an awesome surprise! Delicious gourmet burgers and a large craft beer selection in the most unassuming of places. Highly recommend stopping in for a bite. We will definitely be returning!
M.
A great location for travellers and tourists. Nice garden in the rear with tables, some under cover. Long drop toilets are a bit smelly but his on them for trying to be environmentally friendly.
S.
excellent experience, well worth the drive out of central rotorua - lots of lovely extra drinks and organic food to purchase as well! excellent kombucha selection. There was a lovely male chef who came out and gave us our food, however the asian lady at the counter was quite rude and did not even know what was in the cabinet. We had to repeat our order a few times, and when she didn’t know, she sighed, went over to the cabinet and asked to us point. the cabinet was not even very big so i’m not sure how you would not learn what’s in it. however, everything else was amazing!! love an eco friendly, vegan friendly cafe whose conscious about the future of dining out:D
B.
Good food and beer. Great setup out the back, nice outdoor area to eat and a play kitchen for the little ones. However was let down by finding broken glass in the grass where my one year old was playing and the staff were a bit rude if you didn't already know that there were two counters to order, one for food and one for drink. God forbid you try to order food at the drinks bar, the wife got told off, shame it would otherwise have been a nice place to stop.
S.
Excellent coffee shop at Okere Falls.
Great service ,good coffee really great relaxed area just to sit, relax & enjoy your drinks
K.
Without a doubt the best strong tea! Normally you ask for strong tea and get some weak attempt. Not here! Made my day. Food was awesome too. Lovely setting.
l.
Fantastic spot. Great food which was very reasonably priced, great service and the most excellent selection of craft beers, both on tap and in the store!!! Can't wait to come back.
M.
My partner and I have been coming here for quite a few years, it’s our favourite spot to visit for breakfast on our days off. I always get the eggs bene and the food is always so fast and always delicious. Great service and such a nice relaxing place to visit.
N.
We had a birthday lunch for 13 there yesterday and the staff were so lovely and very attentive making sure the table was kept as clear as possible. We brought our own cake along and they were more than happy to provide us with side plates and cutlery. Thank you for the lovely lunch and service
C.
This is a very quaint place, with very nice Staff. We ate a "Reuben" toastie which was delicious. I would have awarded 5 stars but I didn't like the birds eating unfinished food on plates when guests left; clearing of plates could have been attended to in a more timely fashion. I hope they use hot water to do dishes.
K.
The most delicious burgers and a great selection of craft beers! Staff were super friendly too. This is the best discovery of our trip. Will definitely come back again.
G.
Have driven past this place many times without realising that they have vegan options. Wife and I both had Nachos and kombucha on tap. We sat in the beer garden which has a lovey vibe to it at dusk. Vegan options on menu and cabinet was clearly marked. We got some dessert to take away since we were so stuffed at the time.
J.
A perfect place after an excursion to Okere Falls! Ordered sausage roll, blueberry & white chocolate muffin, which all made our puku super happy. Plus there was live music on Sun arvo, what more could you ask for!
T.
Varied delicious menu to suit every palate. Nice change from the usual fare. Good prices too. Meals under $20. Beautiful home baking. Great service.
Lovely setting. Good clean amenities.
A bonus to see they are doing their bit to help the environment- self composting toilets.
D.
The coffee here is great, and the muffins are even better (especially the whites chocolate raspberry one). The food selection has lots of German inspiration. Beers are great and German as well. Tons of outdoor seating in the back. Staff was super nice. Overall, this place is great!
G.
Good service, popular, dog friendly. Range of cabinet food limited when I was there. Lunch menu more than adequate to fill the bellies of hungry kayakers.
A.
Always love this place. Unique burgers and food are very attractive.
Beer is good in summer after activities.
I always recommend this place to my friends =)
J.
Great little cafe right on the lake. Very good cooked breakfast brunch choices. Friendly helpful people.
A.
Wow! Fell in love walking through the door. Beware, the longer you stay the more you will buy as you keep finding awesome stuff. Great staff, terrific surrounds. If i had longer I'd be here every second day day. Food is amazing.
K.
Love this place, great value for money. Excellent food and great coffee ☕. Just this time they forgot our coffee, they were very busy.
A.
After the excitement of white water rafting, a great place to catch your breath, have a beer and fill the stomach. Highly recommended.
R.
They are so entertainers and motivators, which gave us a great courage and experience in rafting. And the crafts there was so good to buy and bring home. Cheers guys 🤘🤘
L.
Great little stop over with a superb view of the trout fishing and white water rafting...lovely setting in between moorea and te puke...good meals..vegan available...friendly atmosphere
H.
Peaceful place not far from Rotorua. Café serves delicious foods and drinks!
P.
Great view over towards Lake Rotoiti. Passionfruit cheesecake divine. Long black coffee great.
B.
Go here! Awesome food, even better beer selection, and the staff are super welcoming.
J.
Amazing vegan options on the menu, best coffee in town and cute little backyard.
H.
amazing meals organic real food primo!!! service frm the staff my fav place outside ov Tauranga!! Thanku guys an grlz God bless u all an ur bizness 100% an 10 Stars
S.
Located across road from where rafters put in. Tasty food for breakfast or brunch. Sit inside or outside in front or back in beer garden.
S.
LOVE this place. Nice coffee of course but the choice of gourmet food is hard to beat for miles around. Coming from the UK it reminds me of the European delis which are so popular there. Wonderful setting and a 'beer' garden too. Highly recommended
t.
Hidden Gem! Driven past so many times, glad I finally stopped.. nice food, beer, staff tunes and atmosphere!🤙
T.
Great set up. Awesome food and coffee. You can arrive by boat and dock across the road.
D.
I live nearby, so it's a great place to pop into. They have delicious healthy food and on a Thursday night they have live music, a beer and a burger for $15. Awesome value.
C.
Delicious local cafe with an innovative menu! There's a wealth of options for veggies and vegans, as well as lots of local produce. Lovely selection of food and homeware in the shop too. The outside covered area even has heaters for those cold days.
M.
Eclectic cafe that's super dog friendly...varied menu and delicious smoothies and iced coffees.
J.
What a find! Great dishes, some with a delicious Korean influence for extra zing. Food intolerance friendly with everything labelled. Nice beer garden. Easy parking. Friendly staff. Amazing.
P.
The best breakfast I have ever had.......I recommend this place 100%
A.
Worth the drive, as a vegan I found basically nothing to eat in rotorua! This place is unique with a wonderful selection of eco friendly products! I never thought kombucha on tap was a thing.
We had the vegan kickstart breakfast which was wonderful, a fantastic combination of flavours but not overpowering which is perfect for breakfast. (The homemade baked beans are outstanding)
The vegan pulled pork burger didn’t look impressive to start but upon digging in we found the jackfruit with kimchi was absolutely wonderful, really though the charcoal bun was something else, crunchy outside and but soft inside with a subtle taste of charcoal, yum!
Our taste buds had a real treat today, thanks guys 😊
J.
Fabulous location on the edge of lake Rotoiti serving ethically sourced heavenly food.
Thank you Sarah and team for all the delicious meals and super efficient service during our recent stay with our beloved whanau in Okere Falls 💚
E.
Great eco friendly shop and cafe. Lots of options no matter your dietary needs and tastes. Popular with locals and travellers alike. Highly recommended!
V.
Great vegan options! The food was perfectly done and service was great!
B.
A great country store close to Kaituna falls and famous rapids. Eco friendly with an innovative kiwi approach to store and cafe layout, menu items and products for sale.
W.
Nice coffee and people, looking forward to having a breakfast here
M.
An unexpected find! I saw the sign for Beer Garden and turned around the car and stopped in. Very modest and unassuming place, under cover outdoors, playground for the kids. Their Nachos were probably the best Nachos I have had! It was just so pleasant that, if I wasn't driving back to Auckland, I could have stayed there all afternoon drinking wine and eating nachos!
M.
I forgot my mask & was generously supplied with one by the nice girl behind the counter. Thankyou
S.
This place is a must to stop at! Menu that suits everyone, friendly staff, craft beers on tap. 👌👍🙂
C.
Great stop off between Rotorua n Te Puke. Lovely food, lots to choose from. I had the Chicken/Mushroom Pie, so nice. Coffee great too. Plenty of places to choose for eating, from the front deck looking out to Lake Rotoiti, inside or at the rear listening to the birds. Staff were very busy, but didnt rush you through, thanks... would Highly Recommend all who pass by to call in. A+...
R.
Amazing pork buns, amongst other things, at the Deep Creek tasting evening. The bear was very good and the food was fantastic
C.
Great food selection and amazing service!
v.
They have some good veg and vegan options.. must try the vegan beetroot burger
A.
Such an amazing cafe/bar/store! Literally everything you need under one roof. The food and coffee is always outstanding and plenty of vegan options. It has lots of outdoor and indoor seating so prepared for all seasons. The staff are super friendly too :)
H.
Stopped in for brekky with my girlfriend and enjoyed some of the best vegan-friendly food I’ve ever had (and I’m from Melbourne, so that’s saying somethin’). We had a lovely chat to a group of locals who eat there every morning. Would definitely recommend to stop in the mornings for a coffee and fine chat, or on a Sunday night to see some awesome live music. 10/10 would go again!
L.
Lovely location, great staff, awesome coffee.....TERRIBLE PIES!! . Change your supplier..
Hi again, no it was not a vegan pie, it was steak. I called back in today (15th Sept) to try another pie. once again, great people, awesome coffee... terrible steak pie. The pie is filled with black type jelly with the occasional piece of meat. The base of the pie was rock hard, probably due to the heat of your pie warmer..... jeeeez.... your pie warmer could melt gold!! You have an awesome location, great staff, a really nice ambience, but you are let down by the quality of your pies. You really need to consider another supplier. Cheers,
K.
Great atmosphere and food in a awesome location for outdoor activity. Best breakfast I've had in North Island and they open early!
G.
What a fabulous and "funky" store. Everything you want. Bloody marvellous I'd have to say. Seriously. Service fabulous, and a great humour to go with it. Staff so friendly. They luv their shop and meeting guests.
M.
The fresh bean salad, vegetarian phyllo and pork sausage roll were all deeeeeeeeeeeeeelicious. Definitely recommend a stop for some food to take away and savour somewhere else. Some of the curiosities in the store are worth a look, too - especially the German sausages and the hand-made soaps (an odd little collection, to be sure).
N.
Not sure whether i liked the parking as we had to park on Main Road w a toddler in tow so a dangerous situation.
Nice food and variety. Has everything needed to enjoy a cafe meal or sit listening to the band playing...yep a live band. Like sitting in your own back yard.
F.
Quirky little store and cafe with lots of organic and eco friendly products. Indoor and outdoor seating. Permanent stage outside with regular concerts, this pic is of Swamp Thing.
D.
Very clean and friendly staff food delicious
Will visit again
j.
Great coffee, food and service. I'll defo be back real soon.
G.
A very nice place , relaxing atmosphere and great food , good staff
z.
One and only shop near rafting
Thank u for u opened your shop there
S.
Amazingly delicious and wholesome food. Vegan friendly. Cute little store selling gifts and lovely garden setting to relax in.
E.
Quick service, lovely range, clear labels (gf/vegan etc) inside & outside seating. A bit out of the way, but better views for it!
A.
Great food coffee and sevice. It was a busy time when we went with a queu to the door .They soon got through the queu and it was worth the small wait .
P.
Great atmosphere and good food great coffee
A.
Awesome food, coffee and staff.
R.
Great old country cafe that has been very successful over the years. The chilli bean hot dog was ok - would be better if grill cooked instead of boiled in my view.
P.
Love this place as great ambience and coffee. Food today was average at best. Laska was like warm when delivered and in my opinion not well balanced. 3 out of 4 of us rated it so so. Hopefully just an off day as usually is awesome.
b.
Excellent for vegans and carnivores! Awesome beer and great setting.. the vegan jack fruit burger or the chilli dog (meat) with the hot sauce is fantastic!
J.
I had a vegan kimchi toastie with a vegan/organic wine and they were both delish! You can bring your dogs here too. They also have a great little store with some neat sustainable products
T.
The food here is really nice and a bit different and the staff are lovely, however the service is extremely slow. Maybe having more staff in the kitchen would alleviate this problem, as there appeared to be only one person trying to cope with a heap of orders.
T.
Pretty and great selection of food. Massive line of yuppies with their one and a half kids at counter so took a while to be served. Yummy bacon and egg pie with a twist.
B.
Good vibes here. Nice outside dining, great local service with a neat menu that changes regularly (had a friend rave about a dish that was available anymore) and good imported range of beers. Its also dog friendly
M.
Arrived at 9am Saturday morning to find the place absolutely brimming with people. But, we got lucky and managed to get a table.
Coffees came within 5 mins of ordering and were great. Breakfast came to table within 10 mins of ordering, and were fantastic. Staff were good about allergies.
Service was really good, I felt welcome and there was generally a good vibe.
It's not just food and drinks, theres heaps on the shelves to explore.
Would totally go back anyday!
M.
Friendly and efficient service. A wide menu and good food. There is a lot packed into this little store, including a beer garden. A must do when in Rotorua.
A.
The best sausage rolls ever, served with salad so healthy too. Hubby had a craft beer to wash it down. Wonderful! Thanks guys!
J.
It's a fantastic place, great food and brilliant staff. Beer was great too.
E.
Super cool eco friendly Cafe, dog friendly and the food has tonnes of vegan options which taste AMAZING ,the store itself has lots of gifts available for everybody.
G.
Busy place to stop in for a bite to eat with the lake just across the road.
C.
I loved the cozy atmosphere here. The staff were friendly and the food was stunning. The cabinet food as well as the menu items were amazing. Our group ordered from both cabinet and menu. Coffee was delicious. The retail component of this establishment meant that we had fun exploring while chatting and then dining. Super.
C.
Fantastic pies - but slip out the back and grab some fabulous food (loads of vege options) and a beer or (drumroll) pink gin - soo good an angel may have descended.
A.
Nice setting, but takeaway food and drinks were very limited and a bit pricey, in my opinion. The location is prime with a nice view in the front. Most likely will visit with my biker mates if we pass through that way, although, parking might not be entirely bike suitable with the incline.
C.
here for lunch with Ulysses crew. Good service
R.
The outside is substantially different from the inside. Inside is a store and cafe with a wide choice of snacks and meals. The service was very pleasant and the outside seating and tables formed a large beer garden.
g.
Amazing vegan options. One of the best on the planet. Congratulations to the staff and owner for setting a benchmark in nz for others to follow
L.
Awesome store with a nice beer garden.
G.
How wonderful this place is👌
Me and my wife come over from tokoroa for lunch and never get disappointed.10/10
Great food,staff and atmosphere.
Thanks we will back
M.
A little store that stocked some cool stuff including fresh loaves of homemade bread. We sat outside in the sunshine and had a craft beer.
L.
Very cute place! And have bought quite a few things at the store during our stay at Okere Falls. A little disappointed at the dining options though as the menu is slightly too focused on vegan and vegetarian food - there are some meaty options in the cabinet but a cheeseburger or beef nachos would definitely be a great addition
M.
This store is worth a stop, if not a detour! Fabulous coffee and an amazing selection of healthy, sugar free, whole food. The store is also packed with eco-friendly waste-free conscious, natural and organic products that you wont find at many other places alone a cafe. They have some great events and theme nights with plenty of gorgeous seating areas. A REAL GEM
D.
Probably the best cafe that I've been to in the Rotorua region. Awesome service. Everyone seems happy and they are nice to each other and customers. Menu is exciting with awesome vegan options. Same goes for the cabinet food. Kombucha on tap and a huge variety of products available to have in store or take away with you.
M.
If you want quality, come to this place. If you care about the environment and sustainable food, come to this place.
Seriously, this place is good. I had the macchiato, long which was perfect. The breakfast burrito was good but not really a burrito. I'd recommend it whole heartedly, but the salsa was so sweet I couldn't use it. But that's not saying you shouldn't.
Wife got the crepe dosed in syrup which was to die for.
If you have time please come here.
E.
Stopped there on my way to Tauranga. The staff was friendly and the service fast. The coffee was nice and the blueberry and white chocolate muffin really tasty, the best muffin I had in New Zealand so far!
H.
Nice meals in a gorgeous setting, staff were helpful and attentive.
l.
Fantastic cafe full of ambiance, helpful thoughtful staff and great food for vegans! The filo wrap, salad and banofie pie yum! Great place to sit inside or out, great coffee and newspaper to read as well. Gifts sold here as well and so close to Okere falls, it's a must visit.
K.
Great place to visit, always great coffee, food and service. Highly recommend
J.
Nice place to have a tap German draft beer! A very convenient store.
J.
Awesome place, tasty food and heaps of good stuff in the store. Coffee is average at best, tried with and without milk - must be the beans.
S.
Was beautiful food and service. Highly recommended. The menu and cabinet food both we're quality homemade goodness. Have already recommended to many and we look forward to visiting again.
H.
An exclectic range of vegan, vegetarian and alternative foods (along with more conventional fare) is available from both the store and cafe. The venue itself is a kind of rystic cottage with an outdoor garden and eating areas. It is a very interesting place to visit and a good place to for a bite to eat while checking out Okere falls. It is very popular, finding a park can be a bit tricky, but it is worth it.
F.
This store has everything . Food is delicious and healthy. Staff ....!!!!The friendliest you could ever find. Service fast and efficient. Plus all sorts of gifts that you would never see elsewhere. Definitely "A PLACE TO GO."
.
R.
Pies were superb. Pity I ate the whole thing while waiting in the 15min line to pay for the thing. Need 2 tills 1 for quick one off buys and 1 for the coffee drinkers who take forever to order
A.
I love coming here. Well priced for a boutique cafe/beer/general store. Love their smoothies and often drive pit from Rotorua to buy 1 since their in town store closed. Highly recommend the OFS breakfast with the homemade beans #Gangs
H.
Best ever selection of delectable gf, vegan food. Mains and dessert. Love this place.
R.
Pretty good cafe. Sells some good bier sticks, anything in the cabinet is really tasty and there's some good breakfast items too. Coffee is great, especially with a piece of hummingbird cake.
T.
Awesome place to stop for a break. Great food and coffee. This cafe has the environment at its heart 👍 read their mission statement on the front porch area. Friendly staff too 😀😀
S.
On the expensive side but worth it for a filling meal which is healthy or better for you. Good beers available in their fridge too. They also sell a range of sustainable products
M.
Kind staff, craft beers and lovely imported German weiss beer. Thanks to Sarah and her family. And I forgot great flat white. Shop offers nice selection of food and no waste policy.
J.
Beautiful place and lovely staff. Got the sausage roll and winter warmer smoothie and it was delicious, then sat outside with the sparrows in the sun.
g.
Lovely ppl here! Made me the best latte I’ve had in NZ, had a savoury muffin and that was delish and super filling . Would def recommend to stop by
M.
Omg fantastic place not a ordinary Cafe has lots of nice naks and also fantastic area out there back and the food was fantastic 👏
M.
Nice place with interesting and tasty food options. The bratwurst on the menu was actually a bockwurst, but yummy nevertheless! I didn't get to try the coffee but the smoothie was good and not sweet.
J.
All I can say is amazing ! Great staff. Amazing menu , dessert ... next level. Highly recommend.
B.
I have to be honest, my history and nostalgia from this place goes way back to when the gas station was pumping and we would go across the lake to get gas for the boat and an ice cream. Gas is gone and now there is a great cafe, good beer, ice cream and a bunch of interesting food. A nice garden out the back to enjoy and even composting facilities ;) so green!
H.
Great selection of vegetarian and healthy food choices with a relaxed outdoor beer garden.
L.
Only a couple of minutes drive from VR Lake Rotorua. My husband said his coffee (americano) was nice and so was the gourmet sausage roll. I had English breakfast tea and ham and cheese toasted sandwich. I thought my toasted sandwich was a bit oily because it had too much cheese. But for a cheese lover like my husband he said it was nice. Overall experience was average.
L.
Great food, doggy friendly & great garden setting. Highly recommend
N.
Great Spot hard to drive past. Excellent food & coffee
P.
Fantastic find after going to the Okere falls we turned into the main route again heading to Rotorua and there it was along on the right. Yummy food excellent coffee and great outdoor covered seating area. And happy friendly staff
M.
Really unspoilt organic style cafe & store. Very tasty food, lots of choice with many healthy options. Good service by friendly staff in a unique setting; very enjoyable.
M.
Sooo much missing this Place!!! If I should ever return to NZ this will definitely be one of the first places I'm gonna visit. Having a coffee is just not the same anywhere else.
In case someone's actually reading this and planning to visit this place: get yourself a "Nachos Grande" there!!! You can't find anything more delicious!!!! 😍😍
S.
I love this spot, such cool quirky decor, incredible products for purchase, super delish food, great coffee and beer and best staff ever! If I lived closer I would probably be there every day 🤩!
s.
Good fresh food and nice outside steering. Just next to white water rafting (great by itself)
J.
Organic,ethical and big variety of great food. Love their coffee and macadamia brittle. Lovely staff and interesting garden out back with fruit trees and vegetables plus composting toilets
J.
I come here from time to time, and it is always a lovely experience. The staff are friendly, patient, and helpful. The menu always has new, interesting, and great tasting options available. Very relaxing atmosphere. Definite favourite.
M.
Great selection of food. Vegan, vegetarian and gluten free options available. Craft beers on tap and from fridge - good selection. Big beer garden at back.
K.
Neat wee roadside place with a memorable atmosphere. I love how they've taken sugary fizzy drinks such as the Coca-Cola brand off their menu :) could do with a different cutlery setout though, saw a kid playing with about 7 of the knives and running them over shirts and tables and ground before putting them back in the box :O
W.
Brilliant local place to go for great at live music, good brews and food. Not many places like okere falls store with music, open fires, outside stage, gardens, composting toilets,. They are the optimy of true kiwi sustainable thoughtful environments. Keep it up okere falls store
J.
The pukehina beer is simply the best. Good menu. Music in Sunday was great.
P.
What a popular place this is!
In spite of being flat out busy, the service was great.
Their bratwurst with sauerkraut is worth returning for again and again!
E.
Nice staff and nice food! Pretty beer garden too. Liked how green/eco everything is!
Y.
Fantastic little store with everything you need and could think of including meals freshly made in their kitchen. Beer garden out the back too with live music. More than just a store.
B.
Totally delightful. Busy even in middle of winter. Hasn't really changed in all the years I've been going there....tables catering for more people inside. Same ginger cat...Just a bit older as we all are. Love this place.
P.
Awesomeness, food is superb, we thought the price was right, everything organic and free range, beautifully presented, staff friendly and accommodating, wonderful atmosphere, totally recommend this place, will be back ‼️
S.
Honestly the best food I've had in a while. Combined with great staff and a relaxing outdoor garden space makes this the perfect place to stop.
M.
Great place to stop for lunch. Food delicious, staff, although busy, were friendly and helpful. Highly recommend.

Absolutely beautiful little spot. You've got your artisanal produce, your beautiful nz made items and even great food! And a beer garden out the back for a bevvy
G.
A laid back and friendly atmosphere, with a beer garden style bar. A lot of German beers plus some boutique brewery beers. Many craft style foods and beverages for sale. Simple lunch, evening meals and hot drinks available.
S.
The food is simply AMAZING! Perfect place to pick up a great coffee for our Bush Walk. Thanks a million!

Great pie and coffee. Very busy and nice atmosphere
C.
Really good healthy food and a lovely area to sit in the shade out the back with food growing all around you.
J.
Unique gourmet deli products like salts, great food for vegetarians and vegans as well as meat eaters. Parking can be a bit difficult. Boutique beers available also.
S.
great little coffee shop and store

M.
Yum coffee and choc cake. Intetesting atmosphere. Really enjoyed our visit :)
A.
The food and customer service was awesome, the food came out nice and hot it was delicious. Thank you to the staff that waited on us.
P.
Was ok... not that impressed with my.pork belly as was quite chewy and tough.... not what I think if when ordering pork belly
J.
Brilliant in every way! 🌍🏝🇳🇿
R.
After riding the new trail from Paeangaroa to Okere falls Store it was a good pitstop for a coffee and eats before the return trip
We met some fellow bikers who also stopped in for refreshments.The trail itself had a small percentage of true bush trail ,a third metal road and half tarsealed so very doable in both directions if you parked up at the entrance from Ridge Road Paeangaroa end
T.
A must go. I love their vegan food and beer garden. Also, right across the street you can see whitewater kayakers launch.
J.
Okere Falls Store and Cafe, Rocket coffee, rich, roasty, strong perfect decaff. Crepes, blueberries, maple syrup...send me to heaven. Finishing with another decaff Latte and a huge lump of lemon cake...shared with Janet. But wait there is more they sell Burinator Doppel Bock German Beer, smooth, dark, rich, I am in Heaven. Staff are lovely, store is packed wth goodies. Can I recommend this place...yes,yes,yes, this is an incredible oasis.
J.
Coffee was good but I couldn't eat the savoury muffin, it was over seasoned and had a very strange taste. However, cake was nice.
R.
Funky vibe, great food..omg.. the pies!! Qwerky loved the creative outdoor space and electic selection of gifts to buy.
R.
