Food establishment in Havelock North

“This was the best meal I've had at a restaurant in ages. Attentive and friendly service, pleasant surroundings. The food was fantastic, great value for the money. We enjoyed the gnocchi with oyster and lions mane mushrooms, as well as the perfectly cooked tarakihi fillet with asparagus, shredded fennel, wilted greens and salsa verde. A good wine list and beautiful Little City kombucha completed our meal. We will be back next time we're in this part of the country.”

“As residents of Hawke’s Bay we regularly visit the cafe and have always found the food soooo tasty. Good choice. You must like figs, dried or fresh. Nice coffee. Great spot/surroundings. Lovely food. Cafe is surrounded by fig trees and has a shop.”

“The team are very efficient (as always). Tonight I was especially impressed, because it was a busy night and we only needed a table for two.

So awesome team! We will definitely be back.”

“Actually the best pie I've had in my life. The pies from here is actually world class. The way the pie filling is done, the sauce, the blend it's all balanced to perfection. The generosity on the fillings is next level. And yet the pastry is light and fluffy too. I can see how they have won many pie comps now. Well worth the trip out for Even the ones I took away, when reheated in the oven still tastes amazing just like the original shop”

“Amazing service from the lady with the pink lipstick and black hair. Would recommend to others x”
