Great to find a real coffee after finishing 3 days in the bush. Don't judge me....It's a JAFFA thing. Love the House Rules!

Cute little cafe in Murupara. Stopped in for a much needed coffee on the journey from Taupo to Whakatane. Ended up getting a pie too. Nice outdoor seating area, friendly staff (only one lady on when I came, she managed balancing taking order and making coffee well). Worth a stop if you are after a quick bite and decent coffee.

A family business and a friendly team. They were closed the first time I arrived, but still there, so made me some food and a beer and invited me to eat with them! Went back for breakfast the next day. If you order De Pan, it comes in the pan! Best cafe in town!!

I arrived as they were counting down to closing for the day. No problems to the delightful and helpful lady serving me. Pannini and a long black(from the fridge(in a can and which was great too btw) after which I was on the road again. Next time I will be investigating the burgers. Very highly recommended stop over.

Top marks on the creamy mushroom and coffee. Im trying new things and this place is one of them. Met with a new aquaintance to day and we felt comfortable enough to be chatting away for 2 and half hours. Good and polite service. Shine on de' cafe murupara.
