    You have to check out this cafe/motorbike shop!

    I went to this place today, it is the BEST cafe in NZ. It was so cool, its got custom bikes, clothes, cafe, gear, retro bmx bikes, workshop and great food. The place has an awesome atmosphere and you have to try the bangers & mash!!

    If you like bikes then this is a must see, take a group of mates you wont be disappointed

    Slide the little bar to see the pics when you open the link

    Yea i was about to make that comment. $15 coffee and don't ask for one of the Gourmet pies if ya want to keep your money, that's what i'm picking anyway.
    Could be good for a look around though.

    I agree...not cheap....but the breakkie we had was bloody good....better coffee than the lousy one hellokitty had.

    The prices that scared me were the ones on a few of the bikes!

    Awesome shop and cafe...took lots of photos to see if we might be able to recreate some of that cool in our own shop.

    I only wish we could set one up like it in Christchurch!

    I took my bike there with the missus a few weeks ago...there were no other bikes parked outside but it was packed inside, even had a long queue....and a long wait....still gave me more time to look at the one I love ...hmmm Ducati 750 sport.... Had a chat to one of the guys there about Ducatis too....apparently there were other makes of bike there too

    Cant imagine the overheads would be cheap.... All relative I guess for the cafe side but you get so much more of an experience when you go there its worth every penny.

    The cool thing about it is the general public love the place as well, its great for motorcycling

    Blah Catch up you guys...

    Real quick with the Auckland insults but it takes you lot from beyond the Bombay Hills a long time to catch up.
