Matamata Coffee

I wouldn't say the staff were particularly friendly, but the atmosphere and the coffee were really nice. I'm not a big fan of acidic coffee, but the latte here had just the right amount of acidity, and I really enjoyed it. That said, the cup I was given had a chipped rim where you place your mouth. In many Asian countries, serving a chipped cup would be considered quite disrespectful, though I'm not sure what the custom is here. Either way, it didn’t leave me with a great impression.

We visit 2 cafes a day while in France, this place is hands down the best latte I've had. Worth a visit if you like coffee. Small cute sitting area outside, and genuine earthy barista. Perfect short visit.

Lovely chic coffee place with a clean modern look but rustic-like vibes from the furniture and counter. Small selection of snacks and pastries and truly exceptional coffee. We had a flat white and a cortado - both full of lovely chocolatey nutty flavour and no hint of bitterness. They will do your coffee anyway or how that you want, aeropress, French press, espresso based, pour over etc. This is what coffee should be. Well done guys.

Excellent coffee and scone this morning ... This little cafe has been around for a few years now (~9y) and the owner is pretty friendly and know his stuff. He's a coffee connoisseur but will gladly let you have milk (cow or nut) in it without any judgement. It's a little pricey BUT the place and the amenities are top notch a lot of locals and English speaking customers ... (It seems to be a place where US / UK expats go).
