A café in the Whakatāne CBD, across from the Information Centre and the bus depot, where the coffee is hand-roasted in small batches on site. The website says it has been roasting since it opened in 2002, and that it is the only place in the Eastern Bay where fresh coffee is roasted daily in store. The menu includes its vegan rosti, handmade muffins, a Bean Breakfast, club sandwiches, bagels, paninis, and cabinet food and cakes. Whole or ground beans can be bought in store or online, in blends priced from $13.80 to $49.80 as at 2026. Comments posted on the website praise the club sandwich, the friendly staff, the vegan and gluten-free cake option, and the value of the breakfast, and one notes bikes can be parked and kept an eye on.
