"Perfect location for a morning walk around Mount Maunganui followed by an amazing coffee at this cute cafe near the base of the Mount. The food and service is amazing. The coffee is locally roasted in Mount Maunganui and they have the best cinnamon buns + so much more! They also have a really cool retail section which is perfect for gifts!

Chamber of Commerce / Google Review
"The best spot to soak it all in can be found on the outdoor seats in the sun, where you can watch paragliders ride the thermals down from the top of Mauao, groms (learner surfers) shred it in the water, and people playing volleyball or football on the golden sands of Main Beach. The sun, surf, and sand vibes extend into the shop, where polished concrete and plywood shelves create a light space that just screams summer."
