We owned kekerungu store in the 80,s when it had a post office and petrol pumps,it was our family business, In those days it was a very busy place catering for the tourists and locals, We have lived all around nz and have never found a more peaceful and beautiful place to live.
First impressions count, right? After driving past this place over the years, I finally stopped by and got a caffeine and zen hit. Plus a scone.
Big place with lots of indoor and outdoor seating. Grounds to walk around in that are well maintained.
Small menu from the kitchen, but that just means it will be fantastic. Toilets are clean and bright. Allpress coffee was delicious. Pretty cool that they have a campsite next door. It is great to sit in the sun and listen to the birds while watching the seal/s and watching the waves wash up on the shore.
Busy place on the highway
My wife and I stopped at The Store for lunch on a weekday recently, while driving up from Christchurch to Blenheim.
The place was full - we had to wait to grab a table. This is because at least 2 garden tour buses had arrived at the same time.
But the service was reasonably prompt. The vegetarian bruschetta I had was nice - wholesome and tasty.
The setting of this place is superb. Veggie garden, lawns, views of the Pacific Ocean- all combine well.
I will be happy to dine here again.
Great lunch stop between Kaikōura and Blenheim. The potato frittata was outstanding and the chowder was fabulous. Fantastic ambience and sea views from inside or outside. Will have to come back on the way back!
Lovely place. Fine food, good Coffee. Friendly personal. Great wiew over the ocean.
Iconic coastal cafe on the coast road between Blenheim and Kaikoura. We had seafood chowder which was delicious. It's a great location with ever changing sea views and a good selection of food and wines.
Absolutely stunning place, awesome food and fantastic staff. Thank you for an amazing breakfast!! 👌
Amazing cafe and campsite with stunning views right by the sea. My photos don't do it justice.
For a pit-stop type place, I was pretty impressed with it! Dont judge it by its exterior!
The coffee was well made (although I did ask for it not too hot, i did have to wait a bit before it didnt burn my tongue a bit - but the milk hadnt lost texture so...) and the GF Choc Brownie was absolutely spot on. Staff were really cool and lovely too (thanks guys!)
Heard about the seafood chowder and had to try, we arrived just as they were closing the kitchen but they happily took our order. We were very grateful as we are travelling from Western Australia and had this on the to do list. It was delicious as expected and the view was beautiful.
Stopped for coffee and ended up with a huge slice of the most amazing bacon and egg pie with hot chips then realised we could stay over in our camper too!!!! Win, win all the way.
