Little Home away from Home. I received a warm welcome from the barista and really liked the ambience. The coffee was delicious, particularly the regional Oakland milk. But when I tasted the homemade, crispy, warm Pretzel, I was amazed. It brought back memories of home. Finally, I've discovered a café in Nelson that still makes everything itself! Looking forward to my next visit

My wife and I visit for a treat quite often and without skipping a beat these guys always serve up amazing food and drinks, the level of hospitality these guys offer is immense. If I were running a cafe, I'd be here with a notebook and a keen eye for all the details that are on offer.

Really nice cafe. Warm welcome by the barrister as soon as I walked in. Ordered two take away buns which were delicious.

Coming from Auckland to this small cafe, absolutely amazing. Food was hot, soft and super tasty. Coffee is some of the best I have had! Will be coming back here each time we come down!
