Brown Sugar Cafe - Taihape

Stopped in on our way down to Wellington and so glad we did! Their coffee was the best we have had in NZ and their freshly baked sausage rolls with chutney were divine. The team were also super lovely and welcoming.

Hidden cafe in small town on the way from wellington to Taupo. Highly recommend visiting this cafe as the environment was relaxing, garden at the outside, get bit of stretch and have small bites to grab. They don’t have many options but cakes and sandwiches

Really nice, 4 semi separate sections, 2 indoor outdoor under cover, or open. Delightful outside, even with inclement weather. Lots of greenery despite its location in a busy town, felt like the middle of the country. For a tired driver, it was heavenly very rejuvenating. Highly recommend

Such a cute place to stop for lunch on the way from Lake Taupo to Wellington. My chicken salad salad was delicious (and finally got some green into my diet) and my partner enjoyed his cheese bacon toast thing too. The peanut butter bar and blueberry cake we had after was quite good!

We had egg benedict with bacon and spinach for breakfast. The hollandaise sauce was great. They use Supreme coffee. Food in the cabinet looks yummy but didn't order any. Will definitely stop here again.
