Great little café with such friendly service. My girlfriend and I came in whilst our camper was at the mechanics having broken down and they were so friendly and looked after us whilst we awaited the diagnosis. Highly recommended.

They have the best coffee in Tasman, always served with a smile. Nothing is a problem for them, they are happy to change anything to suite the customers needs/wants.
