Cafe in Tauranga

“Ordered a cake over the phone from looking at website and couldn't have been happier. The cake was for my Mums 80th birthday and everything about it was perfect from the presentation to the taste. Everyone commented on how wonderful it was :) thank you so much Blomquists!;I would travel down from Auckland for one of your cakes!!”

“Amazing service and the coffee is always on point. Highly recommend!”

“⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ✅ ✅ ✅ ✅ ✅ Super tidy, clean, comfortable and central accommodation. And what I mean by that is possibly the cleanest and freshest place I have stayed at in a long time. Speaking to the owners in the morning it is approx 5 years old, so credit to the cleaners and maintenance team as this literally feels brand new. Bed and pillows were comfortable, the kitchen has literally everything you need if staying for slightly longer in a super cute, compact and functional kitchenette. I would def recommend for work trips, both short and longer. Couples escapes (try get harbour views if couples), or solo mental health get aways.”

“This is more than an information center...it is also Katikati's Arts Junction where you will find the Carlton Gallery. The exhibitions change about every two weeks and the dozen or so I've seen so far have all been excellent! It's worth a regular visit.”
