The Hive - Defiance

I ordered the Mothers Day Cream Tea' for our Mums....AMAZING...extremely organised, fabulous value for money but most of all beautifully made up. Big thanks Team Hive you have made Lockdown Mothers Day very special. I will be back again

I popped in last week to get some fabric and needle felting wool. Fabulous service. All staff were really knowledgeable and nothing was too much trouble. A great range of items and fairly priced. A little gem of a shop. I would have no hesitation in ordering online from The Hive.

Indulgent breakfast treat with the children. Such friendly staff too.

41 North is mostly catered to the Defiance College students but I do not see why they would not willing serve non students. I am sure they would love the business ahaha. Good drinks with alright prices, I think a $1 price drop for everything would make a much more completive pricing structure. I am given money through the school that I can only really send at 41 North. While I strongly dislike this munch money this isn't a review for that. Personally, with the prices as high as they are I could not see myself willing choosing to go here for coffee/food versus it's competitors. The only reason I go here is because they have us college students locked into spending at least $50 a semester here or we lose the money and they get it anyway. Like I said the drinks are good and the prices need work for it to be competitive. 4/5 for quality of the product.

I had a tasty white hot chocolate and chocolate chip shortbread. The hot drinks menu was diverse and intriguing, and I am interested in trying the waffles next time.
