Nice food, the prawns are well-cooked. Excellent view, this is no doubt đź‘Ť
Although the cafe was close the day we visited, we really loved the amazing scene & the feeling is magic. Walking in the water so good. Had a hardcase photo bombing bee, which we called buZz.
Locally owned cafe with stunning views of Lake Tarawera. We visit often for brunch. The menu is good, both breakfast and lunch options available as well as a selection of smoothies, coffee/tea, beer and wine. Food is usually delicious but can be a bit hit and miss sometimes when it's busier. Service is friendly and welcoming, they're occassionally short staffed; particularly in the weekends when it's busy so there can be a bit of a wait, however you can soak up the views over a beer, coffee or ice cream or even dip your feet in the lake while you wait!
Food portions are generous for the price and there's options for everyone. Parking is not always available as this is a popular swimming area and boat launch. The lake has recently had a reno with seating and a boardwalk. You can also hike the nearby track or after brunch take the water taxi across the lake to hot water beach.
