Meat pies have REAL meat and lots of it. Sandwiches, muffins etc all great. Very busy place for a good reason and great value for money if you're on a budget and just want good comfort food.

Straight up, best coffee in New Zealand. These guys go all the way to all the exotic places in person to source their beans. Also, the food is wholesome and fantastic and the service is pretty decent (i.e. they let you eat in peace rather than in your face too much). I’d go there every week if I’m filthy rich.
