Great service, fair prices and decent bacon and egg on toast. Mall isn't the most interesting but its comfortable enough and has a good selection of simple food in this cafe, though I fancied a cheese stone which they didn't have but decent looking pies and sausage rolls and slices

My sister and I have been bringing our elderly father here regularly for the last four and a half years. We cannot speak highly enough about a young man who works there. His genuine kindness and patience with the elderly customers blows us away. He is positive, happy and super efficient. He remembers what the locals like to order and nothing is to much bother. What a gem he is to this workplace and the community of Levin.

Can't understand why there isn't any prices on any of the cabinet food, couldn't see these items written up on a board either, so take potluck when getting to the till. Otherwise the place is very pleasant and convivial. Obviously very popular, as full to the brim today, so that is a good testament. Price for what I got was average, food was pretty good....
