It’s a small shed-style café, but the coffee doesn’t taste like it’s from a small shop at all — it was really good. The pies were also excellent. I think the pies come from Lyttelton, and I’d love to try them there as well.

Enjoyed a coffee here on a sunny day. Unfortunately the food had sold out but still a pleasant experience in a place enjoyed by the local community

Kraken Coffee is a gem. Great coffee, unreal pies, and a proper laid-back vibe. Everything tastes fresh and done right, and the staff are genuinely friendly. Easy place to keep coming back to—highly recommend stopping in if you’re nearby.
