A delightful blend of cuisines can be found here, from authentic curries from Sri Lanka and India to modern New Zealand classics, including seafood specialties and quality steaks. There’s also a breakfast menu, and local and imported beers and wines from the bar.
Salted-caramel, white-chocolate, and creme-custard donuts are among the decadent favorites at this central Whakatane café. However, sandwiches and savory pies are other options from the cabinet, and you can order from a full breakfast and lunch menu for something cooked freshly on site. The small lemon meringue pies are snapped up quickly, too, but you'll always have something to choose from in the house baking line. Indoor and outdoor seating is available.
Mellow jazz might be playing in the background, local art graces the walls, and the retro couches and armchairs are great spots to chill out and enjoy a coffee, which is freshly roasted every day in the café. Snack options include bagels with any filling you desire, egg and bacon rolls, sandwiches, cakes, and slices. Alfresco dining is available as well.
At the base of Moutohora Island Tours, run by Ngati Awa Tourism, this place specializes in breakfast and lunch. The café opens up from 7 am to 2 pm, and its right by the water, as good an excuse as any to try the delicious seafood chowder with its mix of prawns, calamari, fish, and mussels. Also recommended is the potato and kale soup with red roasted almonds. The café serves a hearty Kiwi breakfast and also specializes in fresh-baked pastries.
