Review Tuatua Cafe - Wellington

Travis Nobles
Love the zero waste ethics here! Plenty of options if you didn't bring your own mug, no takeaway mugs here! They make their own dairy free milks too, so no tetra-paks either. Hope to see more cafes taking this kind of responsibility for providing options to reduce waste. All that plus the delicious coffee, beautiful waterfront views and cool DIY vibe make this unique cafe a must-visit.

Unbeatable spot, especially on a nice day can't beat coffee on the waterfront. Friendly staff and eco-friendly. Coffee was great too.

I'm surprised this cafe has so few reviews. It definitely deserves 5 stars or more!! I had an excellent piccolo with sunflower mylk (no extra charge for that mylk), it was full of flavour, exactly the way I like. The plant-based mylks are organic, cold-pressed, no additives (the usual Tetra Pak ones are mostly water and chemicals, and filling up landfills). So FINALLY a cafe in Wellington promoting health, sustainability, and small local businesses. Plus the perfect location: central but with a view 🌊

One of the best coffees I’ve had in NZ and overall. The staff are really nice and obviously trying to make a positive impact by discouraging single cup use and supporting local farmers. Plus you get to have delicious coffee while sitting by the water :)

Effervescent atmosphere, the granola paired with an americano is so good that you have to be careful other customers won’t steal it! Fantastic.

Great little place very simple, no airs and graces. Excellent position, friendly owner and good intentions.

Best Mocha I've had in Wellington! Love sitting outside and staring at the water!

Really lovely little cafe right on the water front. I stopped there for a coffee and lunch after exploring the Te Papa museum. Service was friendly and my food came out quickly. I ordered the BLT and it was delicious. Reasonable prices as well. The only downside is there is limited seating! It didn’t affect me, as I was dining alone and it wasn’t very busy. Just something to be aware of. But overall I highly recommend.

Great little place on the waterfront. Focus on zero waste, so no takeaway cups (but you can borrow from the mug library!) excellent oat milk coffee. Friendly owner

Great coffee and good place to chill out. You can enjoy the sun and watch the beach at cafe. Brunch available as well - they have pancakes, granola, burgers, etc...

Yummy vegan burger on the run from here! Beautiful spot to bask in the sun on a great Welly day and watch the world go by. Great location, will try the coffee next time

Incredibly rude staff. Poor selection. Do not recommend. Staff are more concerned with themselves than with the customers. Very little on offer.

Recommended.<br/>A hole in the wall take-away cafe/"deli" overlooking the harbour. Celsius fair trade coffee and all the Eco-friendly boxes ticked.<br/><br/>A small range of cabinet stuff but larger list of cooked things in buns, easily prepared in the small kitchen - from chilli dogs to venison burgers. <br/><br/>We sat outside this weekday morning, at one of the two small tables, and eat our very pleasant takeaway BLT and drank a gentle well made coffee.<br/><br/>A useful little cafe to know about. <br/><br/>

Nicely done team!  We enjoyed our visit to your cute little set up on the Welly Waterfront mid week before the madness of Easter weekend struck, and thoroughly enjoyed the location, BLT sammies and Venison Burgers and music!  Very happy to pay $7.50 for a nicely made BLT with free range bacon and the most yummy foccacia bread out - so thank you.  Have informed my Welly crew to check you out (if they haven't already).  Relatively well priced and an easy stop gap/ take out type place, clearly very popular with locals and travellers alike.  Recommended :)
