Curbside Coffee & Bagels: Riverside Coffee and Bagels in Wanaka

Curbside Coffee & Bagels is Wanaka's go-to spot for those chasing top-quality coffee and fresh off-the-grill bagels. Tucked into a lush corner of Wanaka's food truck park, this locally loved cafe has built a reputation on organic coffee and a creative bagel menu that covers a lot of ground.

A bagel for every taste

The bagel menu ranges from a classic Breakfast Bagel with bacon, fried egg and garlic aioli, through to a Smoked Salmon Bagel with capers and lemon juice, and a Halloumi Bagel with basil pesto and seasonal greens. For something heartier, there's a house-made Reuben Bagel with corned beef and sauerkraut, and a Cheeseburger Bagel built around a house-made beef patty. Plant-based options are covered too, with a Smokey Hash Bagel using grilled tofu and chickpea scramble, and a Buffalo Tofu Bagel with buffalo hot sauce. Simpler options are available as well, with a Classic Bagel offered with cream cheese and raspberry jam, jalapeños, basil pesto, or butter, marmite and sliced cheese.

A solid iced drinks selection includes iced chocolate, latte, mocha, matcha, chai, an iced strawberry matcha, and an iced Americano, plus a small tea selection of English Breakfast, Earl Grey, Green Sencha and Peppermint.
