Nice sheltered indoo outdoor seating in delightful restored village. Nice coffee and small but tasty selection of cabinet food, plus a menu. Founders entry is free fot Nelson and Tasman ratepayers.

Don’t walk, RUN to this cafe. Don’t like history? Close your eyes through the park to get there. For the love of GOD, order the creamy mushrooms. It is nothing short of a religious experience. Would have given ten stars if possible.

Great food, including vegan and gf options. Craft beer on tap and friendly staff. Definitely worth a visit and a great break spot with kids.

Awesome cafe. Family friendly. Wedges and shoestring fries are amazing. Kids playground to keep them occupied while parents dine in peace.

Look... If you want a quiet pub thats simple and genuine. You can't go wrong. Its just out of towm enough to have its own atmosphere of chill perfect for and afternoon of beer and long chats with good friends.

I’ve been here a few times with my toddlers and enjoyed the good coffee and play area. I ordered food for the first time today and was completely surprised at how delicious and beautifully presented it was. The modest sounding “hummus plate” was well worth the price, I’ll definitely be ordering it again!
