I had their grilled cheese toastie. Pretty good for 6 bucks, it was smaller than what I imagined it to be but still nice. They have a few seats in their small cozy store.
Their service is wonderful, they offer small pieces of cheese to taste by the counter. Their ice cream always makes a nice treat.
Encountered this place during a dessert tour. Tried the strawberry flavour and it was the best I have ever tasted. I'm a chocolate person but I would return again for this flavour.
This is superb
Just had the Classic Grilled Cheese
$5.50 for essentially 2 toasted sandwiches
Delish
Quality and price to die for
Try it
Does magnificent cheeses and ice creams also
What a Store
Been walking past this store whenever I work but never actually got the chance to try it. I got a scoop of black currant and blueberry flavor for $4. It had the right amount of sweetness to my liking and there was a reasonable amount of black currant and blueberry flavor. The ice cream was a little bit too thick for me in texture which felt heavy though.
Taste - 8/10
Price - 7/10
Size - 8/10
I come here everyday for a coffee with my work colleague. I think the staff are probably fed up of us because we try the cheese everyday! Lol! It's kept under a heavy glass lid so no flies can get in and is cut with a knife so there aren't peoples fingers all over it as mentioned in another review. I love that after 10 coffee's you can get a free grilled cheese sandwich or any cheese in the fridge up to $8.50. Once i got a free Camembert and had it for my dinner with crusty bread, it was delicious. Staff are always friendly and chat to us all the time. The grilled cheese sandwich is just delicious, the cheese is quite strong but it's so tasty. Sometimes we get croissant with cheese instead and you can choose the cheese you have in the croissant! Yummy!
Really good hot chocolate and some good quiet time in the corner. No loud music, which is what I really like. I also had the chocolate ice cream the next day, and that was really good too.
Have walked past here many times intending to try the cheese toastie and finally did. Yum!! I ordered mine with cornichons inside. Not bad, but will try the kasundi next time.
Toasted to perfection with some crispy bits where the cheese bubbles out on the side.
If you are looking for something hearty and filling for a good price then you will have to try the toastie from The Kapiti store!
Called in here on Friday 20 May 2016, was a gorgeous autumn / summer day for an ice cream (its on display in the front window on Shortland St), Black Doris Plum $4, very delicious indeed. Tried some of their cheese - no complaints here - no wonder Fontera have bought them. Remember the Sunday afternoon drives up to Paraparaumu just for an ice cream and cheese sample too - great memories.
I will say that I was a little disappointed by how flat my sandwich was. I will forgive them though, because I certainly got my money’s worth of cheese. Maybe the thin bread was intentional because I did enjoy how the cheese seeped into it to create a sort of golden crust.
I am no expert on fine cheeses, but at a guess I’d say this is a strong cheddar mixed with something a little softer. Not as stringy as mozzarella, but watch how it oozes. This is a real cheese lover’s meal. Because the bread is so cheese-soaked, it could be overpowering for some, and I did feel slightly ill later on. The chewy rye crust does help to balance the flavours, though.
You know when you’re grilling a sandwich and the cheese oozes onto the hot plate, and it hardens into these chewy, tasty little pieces? Rather them throwing them out for presentation’s sake, the cook puts them right in the bag. I really enjoyed this.
Absolutely delicious and affordable ice-cream that'll make you want to say "worth." The serving size is super generous - and I do mean generous to the point where they fill the cone first then keep scooping and scooping until the ball of ice cream is bigger than your fist. I adore the strawberries and cream ice cream; there are actually chunks of strawberry in there which is amazing. Great, friendly service as well. Highly recommend to anyone looking for delicious ice-cream :)
Absolutely amazing icecream. So many choices and so many flavours. Cant ger enough of it. This small little store has a huge range. The scoops are really big and such good prices. Definitely worth a visit for everyone who loves ice cream !
I chose a flavor “ginger nuts” that was crushed gingernut biscuits and crystallised ginger pieces folded into rich and creamy Kapiti ice cream. So tasty. I have to go back again to try another flavor. Flat white was so nice as well.
This is an ice cream shop, cheese shop and cafe all in one. Really nice service. Can try some of the different cheeses before buying and they sometimes have ones on special. The ice cream was very good: good scoop sizes, really delicate but flavorful waffle cone, very creamy ice cream (tried the fig&honey, triple chocolate and black plum (which was creamy but also had a refreshing tang). Didn't try the cafe (grilled cheese sandwiches on the menu) but will definitely come back!
Great ice cream, big scoop and cheap price. Buy 9 ice creams get 1 free scoop as well. Love the ice cream. Staff are friendly.
From Japan:)
Very very delicious.... I love fig and honey flavor. It was really rich.

My god this place was bomb. I would say the reviews def match up to what we got! Everything was tasty for sure. It is a smaller place so make sure to book a reservation before coming!
Shrimp and onion dumpling (4 stars)- Pretty good dumplings. This was probably the only thing we ordered that wasn't OUTSTANDING. It was pretty average tasting.
Special fish of the day with truffle sauce (5 stars)- This was my favorite dish. They did such a good job cooking the fish, the sauce was amazing, and they added elements to make the dish all around textured. Crispy elements with the crunch on top. It was perfect! Still thinking about this :)
Halibut with noodles (5 stars)- Basic fish dish but my cousin has some dietary restrictions and so this was perfect for her. But even without all the fancy sauce or condiments this was very delicious and she enjoyed it!
Short rib special with kimchi (5 stars)- This was amazing! I was skeptical when this came because it was cut up and looked like a flat iron steak which is normally super chewy. But it wasn't and was soooo tender and full of flavor, also had some crunchiness goodies on top which made the dish even better.
Made a special vegetarian dish with noodles and tofu in a curry sauce (5 stars)- Awesome they could accommodate vegetarians with tasty dishes too since it's mainly an asian seafood place. But the sauce was extremely delicious and filling!
The place is also a little tight and our waiter was decent, they could probably work on smiling a little more but I'll be back for the food if I'm ever in the area again!
Toasted cheese sandwich and Kapiti icecream were served quickly and both were delicious. I highly recommend the New Zealand made icecream. Even if you are familiar with the brand - they had flavours I haven't seen in my supermarket. They also sell soup, cheeses, and some small food items such as honey (I saw some Rata honey too!).
Gorgeous, fabulous icecream. My favourite is the Black Doris, not even the Triple Chocolate beats it. They do a great coffee too.
Wow, super cheeses. Very small place for eating in. Only a couple of tables. Menu is just soup and toasted sandwiches. Takeaway are the cheeses and ice cream.
Beautiful range of cheeses.
Order was placed, site was very easy to use, just painful going through the products as the order was not for myself but for a staff member leaving. They received it JUST before they left, perfect timing. She loved the hamper.
