Review The Lockup - Paraparaumu

Tasty options both in the cabinet and out of the cabinet. Friendly staff at the till and in serving. All of the seating is outside so it optimum to be here on a sunny day. There is quite alot of seating that is all spaced out plus a little kids play area to keep them occupied. Tucked down the side street so not to worry about the road being so close.

Friendly staff, good coffee and tea. We haven't eaten here but everything looks good.

This morning's travels bought me to #thelockupkapiti Somewhat different too your traditional café, in that the majority of seating was outside, however the customer service, kai and kāwhe were excellent. Atmosphere was lovely, radio playing in the background, sounds of laughter and kāwhe being made from the kitchen, customers coming and going. I really enjoyed my kai and kāwhe. I ordered from the menu, but the cabinet kai looked sooo ka pai.

It was my first time at this cafe. I ordered the plum crumble and it was the best crumble desert I ever had. It was served with yogurt and it was the best for me which is why I rate these guys 5 star. I will definitely go back there again and will try their lunch menu plus the plum crumble. Thank you for making me happy. I took the photo half way through of eating it 😎👍🍰☕

Lots of seating arrangements. Variety a plenty in the Cabinet. Free range eggs for sale. Even a jar of Dog bikkies! Great coffee. Thoroughly enjoyed my Custard slice & friend said how good the Cheese n Onion toastie was. Thanks. Recommend!

Just love this place. Staff are so lovely and you can tell they are looked after and enjoy working there. Love the bring your dog aspect to,where it's not in your face for those who may not enjoy a poochie companion. You can't go wrong with any of the slices, all great! Great community vibe ! Also actually nice to go to a Cafe where you can actually hear your conversation without hearing every kitchen sound.Great ambience

I really like the lockup, it's a bit cramped inside but they have a heated outdoor area and on a sunny day sitting outside is really nice. The cabinet food is well laid out, recommend the peanut rice salad and the apple cake. Coffee comes in a mug and is locally roasted Dark Horse. This has become my go-to local cafe and I recommend it, though if you could please leave me a seat inside that would be great.

Relaxed vibe. Dark horse coffee. Nice food. Dog friendly outdoor and outdoor covered seating. I had the large chip butty.

Great little cafe slightly off the road. Very friendly staff, great food with some nice touches. Keep it up.

Really nice food and coffee. The service was good and the food options are nicely varied. Also dog friendly which helps.
