Delicious coffee in ceramic mugs, in the sun by the beach. The smoothies we had were yum and the fluffies and slices hit the spot too. Highly recommend a visit!

The queen of cups is the queen of great coffee! Best cup of coffee we had in New Zealand because it was a rich dark roast like what you get in France or Italy, not the sweet espresso you find throughout most of NZ. I loved my oat milk cappuccino…dark, rich goodness. We also had the waffles which were crisp and tasty. I should have had her put the yogurt on the side as it made the waffle soggy, but that was my fault for not knowing better. It was still delish!
