Great coffee and food, been to this please a lot in past 2 years as it was one of my favourite. Recently when they changed their stuff completely (after lockdown) - service got worse. Once I’ve been served food but no coffee for 15min as they just forgot to make it. Another time girl behind the bar was trying to make a latte but couldn’t do it so she asked for help another bartender who was busy chatting to his mate outside, and then he didn’t even tried to hold the door for me, I had some bags and a dog plus coffee, he was literally 2sec before me (he was so desperate to come back and chat to his mate during work time).

Staff seemed disinterested and checked out. Disappointing, expensive and certainly won't...
Read moreA very modern and tidy local cafe for the community of Carterton, very reasonably priced breakfast items and a large range of coffee and smoothie options!
Both ladies that run this place have a very friendly and enthusiastic vibe! I got myself on this occasion a bacon and sausage sandwich (with an added fried egg) on sourdough bread! It was delightful and next time i come back i may just try the avocado and feta on sourdough toast!

Overall this place is a true hidden gem in the village of Carterton and is highly...
