Awaken Cafe - Rotorua Lakes District

Loved this place. Had great coffee, a delicious sandwich, and bought a new drink bottle. Coolest of all the owner makes greeting cards, and they are an NZ Post agent so I got to post a card to my son. It's in the letterbox now. He'll see it when he gets home from school. What an unexpectedly awesome thing to get to do. I'd go back just for the coffee and cards. A really lovely experience and great customer service.

Great little place with excellent home made food. Bacon and egg slab, chicken cranberry brie pie and the ginger slice were excellent. It's well worth a stop.

Charming little place with delicious food and a range of eclectic décor. Really glad we found this place, the iced drinks and coffee are also excellent. Worth a stop for sure!

Stopped here on the way to Tauranga. I can honestly say that this is the best coffee so far on the North Island. Wonderfully strong without being bitter. Excellent! Don’t miss this spot

This little shop is so awesome. Part post shop/hardware traders and great little Cafe. Excellent homemade food. The staff and locals are so friendly and helpful. Highly recommend a visit. Always will be my morning stop on way back to Whanganui. Worth the detour. Excellent service. A
