    Fix

    Wage slaves queue at the pavement window every morning at this coffee bar, while students and others with time on their hands relax in the courtyard. Fix don’t serve food, but you can bring along your own food or takeaways.

    CPR

    Get a fix of Blenheim’s own-roast coffee. There are muffins if you’re lucky, but it’s really all about the beans.

    Motogrill

    Squeeze in beside off-duty adventure guides and other discerning locals for eggy breakfasts, chunky toasted sandwiches, and great coffee from hip and savvy baristas. The coffee has actually been judged Central Otago's finest by NZ's Cuisine magazine.

    Switchboard

    Beneath the Man-U mosaics, there's Nana-style wallpaper, cupcakes and a coffee machine in a cupboard. Take a tram-style seat across the footpath.

    Brother Baba Budan

    Cute city outpost of indie roasters St Ali. There's coffee, of course, and only the odd ruglach or biscuit to distract you.
