Actually my husband and I went there 2 years ago, back in March 2017 when The Lifeboat was only a few months open. We spent some time here since Richard was soooo nice, talkative, and kind to us. He told us a little bit about his life, and we told him about our lives and dreams. It was really a nic

Awesome little spot right at the ocean. Delicious coffee and amazing Dutch Stroopwaffels. We tasted them in Amsterdam before and they taste exactly the same, if not better. :-) went back to bring some home too! Very affordable as well. On a nice day it is beautiful to watch the surfers and Mt Cook.

It is a very cute cafe with the sweet and very welcoming owners! I would highly recommend to check it out and to get a cap of a perfect hot chocolate with a waffle and a good chat with the owners. Like a bonus there is an amazing view to the beach, the snow capped mountains in the background and the
Probably the best stroopwafels in the southern hemisphere. Freshly made to order by the wonderful Richard. Combine that with a good coffee and a great chat, well worth a little detour if you're passing through Greymouth!
