Hokowhitu Cafe And - Palmerston North

Went to the Manawatu Golf Club to have the Legends Christmas Lunch. Very nice food, good service and a bunch of people to talk too at the do.

A 5 stars cafe! Super friendly people and very good atmosphere. We eat here just about every Sunday for 2 years now, never disappointed. It is better than lots of cafes we eat in Auckland and Wellington.

The staff and the surroundings were great but the meal was disappointing.

What a revelation this place is. If you want a calming environment there could be nothing better than the park like view of the golf course. Instant entertainment too, who would have thought the golfers have robotic golf bags that trundle by themselves from hole to hole. We are glad we booked as the place filled up rapidly after twelve. All 5 of us were impressed with the food and the pasta of the day, creamy bacon and mushroom was a standout. Our after lunch coffees were a little slow arriving but considering the crowd and our after lunch slices it was great to have a wee breather. On the whole we were impressed with the location and food. Service staff are outstanding. Meal prices are better than average and the food is delicious. At the entrance is a small dog area with a bowl of water for your dog. I can image if you live in the Hokowhitu area it would be a nice stroll on a summer day. We will definitely be back. Thanks HokowhituCafe staff for making our lunch a memorable one.

Excellent staff, especially Tom. Food beautifully presented and good value. Can recommend for a nice lunch venue. Pity there is no lift.
