Hawera Cafe And Bakery — Restaurant in Taranaki

12/10 Pies were great. The mince and cheese had real cheese. The pastry was phenomenal. Great location next to the roundabout so there’s always something to watch. The man completing the Rubik’s cube next to us was very good at it. Locals are friendly, one man rode past with a bucket of beers on his bike. He had great chats with the guy doing the rubik’s. Fridges actually kept the drinks very cold. 1.9 degrees Celsius. A vast improvement on many of the other stops we’ve made this holiday which only chilled there drinks to 15 degrees Celsius, leaving them disappointingly under satisfying… I’m not even thirsty and I’m thinking of getting another drink it was that good!!

Conveniently located close to the Sportswear store. The nativity scene in the second hand store next door was a lovely touch also. I would not recommend leaving Hawera without making at least one stop here. It really is the heart and soul of this thriving metropolis. Big ups to the team for making this such a great stop…much love. Can’t wait...

The coffee was excellent and the service was quick the food was great all though I feel the big breakfast should be just that a big breakfast however for the price it was ok and arrived quickly and tasted great price is reasonable but the atmosphere was a let down with children crying and music only played as we left good place to stop if your in a hurry the range of pastries looked great but can’t say if they were or not on the plus it was open on a Saturday and in Hawera there aren’t many open we might eat there again but only after trying the others on the strip so I have given it a four out...

Always enjoyed my time here no complaints wait time for my meal is standard the eggs Benedict is always yummy the egg is always runny the hot chips are perfectly done the ice caramel is always to my liking I tried the garlic and prawn pie today 10/10 so good my favorite pie now plus the smoke salmon pie so good my only negative is the cook who did my steak meal a while ago did not give me medium rare steak both the times I've ordered it now I just order my eggs Benedict from now on but other than that highly recommended and can't wait to...
