Oh boy, what can I say ? It is more than a mere cafe, what an excellent food they served and not to forget the brilliant coffee and also choices of green tea they make. Food we tried the Goat Curry and the Lamb burger for lunch and it was top notch. Curry seriously other restaurants can take a leaf out of their recipe. What a wonderful taste that was. Infact, we went there thrice in our two day stay at Fox Glacier. In terms of the location, one of the best as you can do a lake Matheson rainforest walk also. Price for food is very reasonable and so is the quantity of good given. Also try the Reflections gift shop. They are good and reasonably priced as well.
Beautiful spot and delicious food. Breakfast was elegantly presented.
We came in for dinner on the recommendation of our B&B host. It was the nicest meal we have had in New Zealand.
I had a delicious lamb burger with a beautiful view!

I just keep it simple - WOW!
Könnte ich 6 Sterne vergeben, ich würde es tun. Gastronomisch und kulinarisch ein absoluter Lichtblick in der Gegend. Meine Frau und ich saßen im Ort fest aufgrund eines ganztägigen Starkregens. Die sich kurz bietende Regenpause nutzen wir für den einzig verbliebenen Walk ( Fox Glacier Access war gesperrt ) in der Gegend. Lake Matheson hat definitiv seinen Reiz und der Tag fand im gleichnamigen Café ein würdigen Abschluss.
Aufmerksame, freundliche und schnelle Bedienung !
Ausblick auf das Bergmassiv einfach top.
Einrichtung sehr modern.
Die Essensauswahl klein aber hervorragend.
Ich machte meinen einzigen Fehler an dem Abend indem ich den "Lamb Loin Salad" als kleine Version bestellte...groß wäre besser gewesen weil einfach lecker. Fleisch zart und auf den Punkt gegrillt ( bisher in NZL leider immer daneben bei "medium rare" )
Die Komposition mit Couscous, roter Beete und Tzaziki wirklich top.
Auch der "Pumpkin Macadamia Salad" meiner Frau war super.
Dessert mega lecker ( Chai Cheesecake grandios und Salted Maple-Panacotta spitze )
Der Preis passte zudem absolut zu der erbrachten Leistung...ich empfand es fast "zu günstig".
Würde dort jeder Zeit wieder essen gehen - absolut zu empfehlen.
P.S. : Reservierung ist sinnvoll - wir waren zwar spontan da, hatten aber wirkliches Glück noch einen Tisch zu bekommen
Best experience in New Zealand!!!
The food, the waitress, the views!!!
Highly recommended!! A must do thing!
If you happen to be in Fox Glacier and go for a walk to Matheson lake, make a stop here and enjoy service and food equally as good as the views.
Most amazing little rainforest bushwalk to get to the lake with it's stunning reflections
Highly highly recommend trying their beef jalapeños bagle. It's loaded with beef brisket. It was one of the best things I had in my life. Recommend share one between two. It's LOADED. I took this picture after already consuming half of it, but it was that good!! Coffee was good as well. Good place to relax after a walk to the lake. BTW, lake walk is not to be missed! Especially on a good weather!
Had a great time here. Flavours were spot on and fantastic. We ordered the venison burger and the mushroom bagel benedict. The sauce for the mushroom bagel benedict was super yummy. Highly recommended for anyone who is passing by the area.
Excellent Bacon Eggs Benedict. Just the right amount of pesto and hollandaise, eggs cooked perfectly. Far exceed exceptions for a stand alone cafe near a trail head. Flat white was also great, higher on the coffee to milk ratio than most. Best meal I’ve had in the Fox Glacier/Franz Josef area.
Open atmosphere inside, with good views and music also.
The waffles was pretty good. Great place to relax and take in the view.
The best view ever and the best eggs benedict with mushrooms!! Coffee was excellent. Quick service. I must pay my respect to a person who chose the set of music.
The view alone is worthy of 5 stars. I really enjoyed the very tasty, and cold, iced latte and a delicious muffin while soaking in the beauty that surrounds the Cafe. A walk around lake Matheson then a visit to the Cafe is a must
A great place for a stop with a magnificent view on the mountain and a good coffee.
Also, the shop is really nice and the staff is super friendly and gave us many good advices for visiting the region.
It was a perfect place to start my day with.
Fantastic. Came here after the lake circuit walk. Nice food options and lots of seating inside and outside with picturesque views of the mountains.
I'm not a salad man but I was feeling adventurous and decided to order the grilled vegetarian salad (+chicken), to which the waitress said "good choice that's my favorite". Lots of people say that, but wow was it good. Blew my bloody socks off. Probably one of the best salads I've had. Probably the best ever. But I'm not a salad man so I had my wife try it too and she concurred that it was the best salad she had ever had also. The table next to us also ordered the salad, and it must have taken their breath away too since they then ordered another salad to take away with them.

Great service, the noodles were served in a plate bowl which made drinking the soup more difficult then necessary, the flavour was nice though. The burger quick nice and the chips were crunchy. Owner has a very friendly dog that roams around! Big plus if you are a dog person! Great view of Mt Cook if you sit outside as well.
Wonderful cafe by Lake Matheson Walking Track! It's got plenty of indoor and outdoor tables and seats, very spacious. They have transparent glass windows all around, so customers can see the views outside. Food is of good portion and tastes delicious! There is a souvenir shop as well. Limited carpark outside, so hard to find a spot during summer peak time.
