It’s been a long wait for coffee...but the wait is finally over!
This Tuesday, the 27th March, Te Kowhai Village Café will be opening for business.
“Finally!” I hear you say.
Well, me too. I’ve got a few more grey hairs than I had last year.
I am Choung, and I run a café and bakery in Pukekohe and Raglan. I am very pleased to be able to now support Te Kowhai with a café of their own.
My son, Sovandy and I have over 15 years’ experience running our bakeries and cafés. We will be offering:
• All day breakfasts as well as other hot menu items.
• Pies, pastries, sausage rolls, sandwiches and filled rolls.
• Cakes and sweets.
• Event catering for parties, work smokos or lunches.
• Cold drinks, milkshakes and smoothies and…
• Coffee!
To begin with we’ll open from 6.00am through to 5.00pm and we’ll see how local demand goes.
Te Kowhai Village Café
669 Horotiu Road, Te Kowhai
(Right next to the green grocer)
We need an experienced server / barista and someone to clean and clear tables. If you’re interested, PM me.
We look forward to meeting you soon!
