Hidden gem with great coffee, perfect for a meeting or a little laptop time with free wifi and wall sockets. There's even a garden seating area for those sunny days. If you're lucky and here on a Friday evening they have live jazz bands play.

Best cocktails in town. There's no menu, just a series of questions they ask to make you a custom beverage. Moody and intimate, this one is great for special celebrations and a real treat!

Only a 45min drive to the west coast beach, you can walk forever along the sand. There's a little cafe (Sand Dunz) in the first parking lot if you need a refresh. Plenty of surf and sunshine, bring a picnic for sunset.

Amazing views and multiple walks stem from this park. There's countless hikes along the roads to Muriwai and Piha beaches, so take your pick and a bottle of water for a glorious day in nature:)

Take a 25min ferry from CBD to Waiheke for a day trip to a winery, art gallery or cafe. Waiheke is the Hamptons of New Zealand.
