You'll always find plenty of locals lounging outside in good weather at the makeshift tables or stopping by on the run for their morning cup of joe. Chat with the super friendly long-term resident expat Brits who run this joint. They can also give you great tips whether you are here on holiday or have moved permanently. They drive their coffee mobile right up to the shack and serve a wide range of hot drinks. Check out their amazing baking. Their gluten-free cookies are to die for (often lemon or lime flavoured). They also have a small range of vegan products available most days and I'm keen to try their pies sometime soon. They are open early morning to around 3ish next to the Caltex service station.

Deluca is the package - great food, coffee, baked goods, atmosphere and service. There is literally nowhere else in the area that will give you all of these things for a reasonable price. The decor is lovely - a charming mix of polished industrial and cottage. It's covered with hanging bottles, jars, and has a nice stand with fresh baked goods such as scones, croissants and buns. The counters are lined with jars of cookies and slices, and there's a main display full of sandwiches and salads. You can also order off of their menu, which is a little pricey but worth the effort. I highly recommend the kumara cake with poached eggs! Whether you're a local or just stopping in town on your way up north, check out Deluca - it's a humble little spot that rivals the cafes of Auckland and Melbourne.
