Life is Good

Join us a Victorias. Open daily for good, honest, seasonal food & consistently excellent coffee. The kitchen team have created an all day breakfast/brunch and lunch menu - the old favourites are there, joined by a full menu of yumminess custom designed by our fabulous Chef Paul Kepa.

If you are pushed for time or just need a quick fix, there will be something to grab and go from our ever popular cabinet which caters for both gluten free and vegan. A generous selection of savoury and tasty offerings including a variety of healthy and beautiful sweet treats is available all day. As is our freshly roasted, passionately made coffee; as if we could forget about that!

Our focus is on good, honest, homegrown & seasonal food providing exceptional value & taste. Our suppliers are local - we shop local, we stay local. The food is matched with an extensive drinks list of not only our coffees and selection of non-alcholic drinks but also a great range of both New Zealand & international wine, beer & cider.

Whatever your appetite, lifestyle or dietary needs, we have something delicious and nutritious to suit.
