Cafe Ignition is a cafe in Rangiotu, a small rural settlement in the Manawatu district, and holds a 3.1 rating on Google. Out this way, a cafe is often more than a coffee stop: it doubles as the local meeting place and a welcome break for drivers crossing the countryside. Good country cafes tend to live on fresh cabinet food — filled rolls, pies, slices — alongside cooked breakfasts and a reliably decent flat white. The cabinet is usually fullest early, so regulars know to come in the morning before the best picks are gone, and a table of locals in work boots is often the surest sign of quality. Cafe Ignition sits in that tradition, a handy stop for anyone passing through rural Manawatu.
