The Black Stump Cafe - Pahiatua

Thank you for putting up with the 21st birthday group last night! We all had a blast, the food you provided was Devine and you were all SO lovely!! A few of us actually commented on how kind and friendly you all were : so thanks again!!

Nothing short of an incredible restaurant and cafe ALL ROUND!! The coffee is well rounded and beautifully made, with staff paying immaculate and friendly detail to my fussy preferences : I am lactose intolerant and they were so accommodating when I asked them to clean the jug, spoon and steamer first. The baked goods, my gosh to say the least are heavenly! my absolute favorite, the melting moment was perfectly soft and crumbly in the way it should be, and I adored the little passionfruit twist in the icing. I have been several times and all of the baked goods are nothing short of the best homestyle baking I've had (sorry grandma The full menu is intricate and well balanced to suit everyone's tastes. I went with my family as a large group and EVERYONE'S orders came out perfectly cooked, and immaculately presented, and the most important: ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. The owners Alison and Graham were wonderfully warm people who truly understand customer service and making your visitors feels welcome and homely. This is one of the best restaurants and cafes I have ever been. I couldn't think of a single complaint :

Wonderful staff, and excellent atmosphere. My child was having number 2 issues and they were absolutely amazing. They helped my daughter whilst I got to eat my tea and have a break from my stressful situation.

My husband and I bought takeaway coffees yesterday, Thursday. Quite simply THE BEST FLAT WHITE I have had ! My husband had a cappuccino and says it would be hard to find a better coffee anywhere. I agree. The coffee was perfectly made right temp, great taste good tasting coffee beans. Well done to the Barrista with the Princess Leah hairdo who made our coffees! We will make your cafe a place to stop next time we are passing through!

Awesome cafe, great food and coffee. Friendly staff... well be back
