> Very nice cafe that runs by locals. The building was beautifully restored. Filled with old town characters. The food was awesome. Very good presentation and quality. The coffee was nice and strong but unfortunately does not provide skim or decaffeinated options which was a missed for me. The outdoor decking seating area was covered with stunning Lyttelton Harbour views. A wonderful place to visit. Parking outside is free for 1 hour Mon to Fri., Ting Ralph, 4 months ago
> ​This spot is the perfect blend of industrial chic and cozy warmth. The high ceilings and wooden floors give it a great "old" vibe, but the gorgeous fireplace is the real hero - it kept the whole place perfectly toasty on a cold autumn day. ​The food is stunningly presented, but it’s the quality that wins: sourdough buttered to perfection and bacon cooked exactly right (soft with a crunch, and zero chewy bits). I especially loved the beans that came with the breakfast; they had a fantastic spicy kick and a deep flavor. As for the coffee? Absolutely banging. I had to have a second just to make, Sasha Hovinga, 5 months ago
> They get a 100 out of 10 for Atmosphere!! Im from South Auckland and no matter where I go I always try to find things that make me feel like home and driving out to this sleepy seaside village from Ilam was probably the furtherest from home I have been in Aotearoa but stumbling upon this cafe was a true hidden gem!!! It was packed and rightly so, from the coffee to the cake and the historic art on display to the live Dj, yall really got me! It was the KiaOra for me, nobody says that much down here like they do up north and it's such a beautiful thing to find. Next time we are in Lyttelton we w, Emzilla, 6 months ago
