We offer breakfast and lunch along with casual dining, offering local seafood, great coffee and an interesting list of local wines. Our extensive dining area is both inside and outside, the focus being to enjoy the natural open environment opposite the beach.

Nigel Evans from Wales leads the kitchen team at Café Encounter as Head Chef. Nigel brings with him 20 years of culinary experience and we are thrilled and excited at the mouth watering menu options he has introduced to the café cuisine.

Café Encounter's choice of roasted coffee bean is Ozone Coffee based in New Plymouth. The Ozone Coffee Signature Blends and Single Origin coffees are all 100% Arabica and proudly roasted right here in New Zealand . Ozone Coffee is fully committed to the philosophy of fair trade and ensuring coffee growers receive a fair price for their produce is critical to the long term sustainability of the coffee industry.
