The cafe is situated in a beautiful area and it would be hard to find a better cafe in Paihia to sit in and have an afternoon drink. Recommended... More

I was given a tip by my B&B hosts. unlike eateries at many significant heritage spots, this cafe is amazing. Try the Salmon Rushdie: salmon wings braised with honey and served with dill mayonnaise!

Visited the cafe on our way out of the Waitangi Treaty Grounds and definitely wouldn't choose to eat there again.
