Internet cafe in Papamoa

“My husband and I visited this cafe for the first time this weekend and were glad we did; the food was delicious, the coffee was good, and the presentation was beautifully done. We look forward to our next visit.”

At Meltingpot Papamoa, the menu stays Japanese‑leaning with tidy execution. Broths and noodles keep good heat and snap. The team keeps things friendly and organised. Packaging keeps things in good shape to go.

“We had a wonderful lunch at White Ginger Cafe. We chose to share a plate of corn fritters and a side of Hash fingers. The food is always presented so beautifully. The setting is lovely, nestled within Pacifica Garden Centre in Papamoa. You can eat inside the cafe or in the outdoor area within the garden centre.”

“Hot dog is good. The American style. Lady has a pretty face, but will be prettier if she smiles.”

“Shelley is absolutely amazing. Had the pleasure of purchasing a wetsuit, kids skateboard, scooter parts which Shelley kindly put together. If anything she doesn't have at store she always finds and orders in. Love supporting our local surf/skate/scooter store here in Papamoa and will always go to her. Can't recommend highly enough and worth our community support instead of online. Can't bet that personal touch.”

“The coolest coffee shop in BOP! Such cool staff topped with amazing food, beverage and beach view. Shout out to Lisa and Kalia for being legends!! Will definitely be back :)”

“I visit Barber Tom's for my regular haircut. The atmosphere is clean with a great vibe. Jess's service is really exceptional. She's always professional, friendly and give great attention to detail. My hair is always neat and evenly cut and I leave knowing my hair looks great. The hot towel afterwards is so relaxing. I can highly recommend them!”

“Delicious cheese scone and great iced mocha! Definitely satisfied my cravings and hunger during a long beach day.”

“Fish jungle curry for me and chili chicken salad for her ... all delicious. Tucked away but plenty of parking. Is very popular so get in early or call ahead to avoid disappointment. The coffee is great too! Treat yourself - you deserve it!!”

“Great morning tea had by all - spinach feta roll, marmite school, cruffin, great food, great coffees, super friendly and attentive staff.”

On the plate at Blackberry Eatery BREAKFAST LUNCH AND DINNER, the idea is classic fish‑and‑chips and well judged. Value feels fair for the quality. Eggs land on point and toast keeps its crunch. Portions are generous yet well judged.

“First ever visit and I was not disappointed. The Sausage Roll was fresh, the pastry was crisp the filling was flavourful and filled the pastry. The Almond Croissant and the Panna Chocolate (even tho I didn't try them until I got back to Whakatane about 4hrs later) was absolutely devine. But what topped it all off was that the staff, as well as being friendly and helpful and just a breath of fresh air, actually brought everything out to the car, I have never had anyone do that for me. I am sure that locals know all this about Best anyways but they definitely deserve praise and I challenge all locals to nominate them for the 2024 Prospa Local Business Heroes because they deserve it. Keep up the amazing mahi that you girls are doing.”

“Great garden centre. Had my Today Tomorrow Forever plant here where others didn’t. Helpful staff in garden area. Ordered my extra climbers I wanted for me. And absolutely love the cafe food”

“Always great service and great food at reasonable prices. Called in this morning to pick up a Pastrami Beef Bagel, for my 96yr old uncle's lunch since he loves them so! I was dismayed to see none in the cabinet and asked whatever could I do so as not to disappoint him? Apparently they have been very busy and hadn't had time to make any but at the look on my face quickly offered to have two ready for pick up in 15mins. Very much appreciated and end result very happy uncle!”

BLUEBIYOU delivers a simple, bistro‑style line‑up that’s straight to the point. Outdoors works when the weather plays along. Service stays present without fuss. Portions are generous yet well judged.

“Sena, the lady with the beautiful ginger hair. She makes the best expresso caramel frappes that I highly recommend! I call them heaven in cup. The food is always fresh, and delicious!”

“The best mocha I have had. Great balance of chocolate and coffee.”

“Best coffee and scones! Coffee is consistently good, service is exceptional, and the atmosphere is very welcoming. It’s a nice spot to sit and work on your laptop because of the calm music and large windows.”

“Absolutely loved our visit to this cafe today. Came in with my family and we enjoyed the food and service. I had the Eggs Benedict with salmon, hands down the best I’ve ever had! The hollandaise was silky and rich, and the salmon was perfectly cooked. We also tried the Big Breakfast, which was actually big, fresh, and delicious. The staff were warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere was relaxed and family friendly. We’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!”

“These guys are successful restaurant owners so their care and quality come through in their food and service. Unlike your average industrial sloppy pie shop, these guys have a range of healthy options, they mix it up with different daily dishes and they’ll happily customise an order to your liking if you don’t quite see what suits you. Legends!”

“Friendly owner and good range of drinks and snacks”
