Sundae Bakery & Cafe is a bakery and cafe at 61 Kimbolton Road, Feilding, in the Manawatu, rated 4.8 from 18 reviews on Google.
Bakery cafes live and die by timing: the day's baking is at its fullest early, and in a country town the popular things — fresh bread, pies, filled rolls — are often gone well before closing. The honest test at any of them is a simple one: a pie and a flat white. Rural bakery cafes also do quiet duty as meeting points, where farmers, commuters and passing travellers cross paths at the counter, so mornings run busy and mid-afternoon is calmer. If you want the pick of the cabinets, arrive before mid-morning; if you want a seat and an unhurried coffee, come later.
Sitting on Kimbolton Road, one of the main routes out of Feilding, Sundae Bakery & Cafe is well placed to be exactly that kind of stop for locals and passing traffic alike.
