The Staveley Store

Stopped here on the way to Sharplin Falls, and it was a really cozy, vintage, "homey vibe" place for a coffee. Staff were really friendly, explained the menu well, and they had a really nice range of signature coffee drinks too thought were a nice touch. I tried a cola with espresso, liked it more than I thought I would. Will definately stop by again next time we are in the area.

Staff is friendly and acommodating. Coffee tastes good along with our Panini. The place is giving that historic, vintage vibe but still vibrant in atmosphere decorated with such beautiful paintings. It may only be that coffee shop you'll pass by upon going to Sharplin Falls, but I swear to everyone you won't regret stopping by in there after hiking.

We stayed at Mount Somers Village over the weekend and had breakfast here twice. I felt sorry for the girls on the first day because they were understaffed on what seemed to be their busiest day of the year. The food and coffee were still good. Service was much faster on the second day we went. There is also a nice shop for keepsakes and an area with toys for kids to play with. Overall a must-stop ☺️

Nice salad 🥗 and coffee Recommended!

The cafe has a charming ambience that really captures the local flavour, making it a pleasant place to dine. The staff were very welcoming and added to the overall positive experience. For my meal, I opted for the soup of the day, which was a comforting choice that differed from the usual fare. The curried pumpkin filo was a standout dish. The bacon and egg buttie also stood out as a unique item, blending the classic combination of bacon and egg with its own local flair. Overall, trying these local specialities was a highlight, offering a taste of something new and distinctive compared to what I have back home.

Must stop in mid-Canterbury! Highly recommend, beautiful space inside or out on a sunny day. Modern menu with lots of choice and options for dietary requirements ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Amazing spot well worth a visit. Counter food only, but of a high standard. Excellent coffee. Welcoming atmosphere and a wide choice of seating areas to suit time of day and weather. Added bonus of gift store and artworks for sale.

Great cafe. Staff, seating, food, location all winner. Stop, sit, drink and you will be a better person

Very friendly and pleasant place for breakfast. I had the lemon muffin and the mocha, both of which were lovely. My friend said the latte and the bacon and egg buttie were also good. Highly recommended if you are looking for a nice place to stop, have a cup, and plan for the day ahead. (The restroom is also spotless -- bonus points!)
