#DiscoverOurLocal guide says: "Whoever said you can only get a good cheese roll in the South Island was wrong. You’ll find them here along with really good coffee and a warm welcome to natter away the morning’s news. Loved by locals and visitors passing through, the sweet treats are pretty good too."
