A great location at the wharf with really good food and service. My wife had the soup of the day and loved it while I had an egg sandwich. The prices were decent too. If you're looking for a place to grab a bite that is down to earth and not pretentious at all you can't go wrong with this place.

Really cool cafe on the water front in the Oamaru harbour. Great outlook across the harbour and great access to the awesome playground for the kids and the Victorian area of Oamaru. Great coffee and food completed the picture. Definately worth the visit

Gorgeous building on the waterfront. Service was excellent and attentive, and the coffee and food was absolutely beautiful! I had the chicken waffles and it was HUGE and delicious. Would highly recommend stopping here for a feed if you're in the area.

I stumbled upon this cozy and charming cafe on Google, initially thinking it might be just another breakfast spot. However, when I opened the door, I was absolutely amazed by the view. There were plenty of window seats overlooking the sea, allowing you to watch the mesmerizing ebb and flow of the waves and the graceful seagulls in flight. I found it incredibly enjoyable to listen to the relaxing music they played while savoring the soothing sounds of the waves and gazing at the sea.
The food portions were impressively generous, offering twice the amount you'd typically get at other cafes for the same price. The cappuccino was delightful, and the service was excellent. I truly relished my time there! I wholeheartedly recommend this cafe to anyone visiting Oamaru.

We stopped here on our drive from Dunedin to Christchurch for lunch.
I got the mushroom stack- delicious and fresh made from good quality produce- and my husband got the chicken salad, which he liked too.
The cafe is right on the harbour so great spot.
Service a little slow but they were busy.

Popular spot and I can see why !
Best Sausage roll I've had for a while.
Stopped in for coffee and a bite and didn't regret it. Lovely views of the bay with window seats along the front. Open them up when the weather permits.

Excellent food and atmosphere, food didn't take to long. Dishes are huge and delicious. Hubby had the open steak sandwich, and I had the crispy chicken salad (was soooo good 10/10) milkshake was massive as well. Will be back to try the crispy chicken waffles yum yum.

This is my local go to place for my breakfast! I absolutely love the friendly staff and upbeat atmosphere. The food is to die for and a full cooked breakfast always comes out really quick which I love. You can't beat the view from the windows as you are literally perched on the beach looking out to Oamaru harbour and all the gorgeous boats bobbing around in the sun sparkled water. It's just splendid. I highly recommend to all!
Very beautiful view of the laguna with boats but spoons and folks weren't really clean and there was a little smell of toilet, but the dessert was good
