Tuatua cafe

Tuatua cafe 2022 WasteMinz Award winning cafe. A pleasant sunny sanctuary to escape throwaway culture

Tuatua is a small cafe/deli/takeaway operating out of one of the iconic boat sheds down on Frank Kitts park, with the most beautiful view in the whole of Wellington straight out to sea. Coffee, counter snacks, nachos and our famous burgers - including our venison burger with tamarillo chutney - are prepared on the premises by a small and friendly team, Simon, Harri, Meg and Tanya. On sunny days you can sit outside the cafe at our tables watching people skate by. We use celsius coffee and at the end of the day take the coffee grounds home with any other food scraps to turn into compost we use to grow more vegetables. Ingredients are brought in to Tuatua as often as possible in the bike trailer attached to the bike Simon cycles in on. We use locally produced ingredients and free range eggs and bacon, and sell organic drinks - no pepsi or coca cola (bad karma!).

So good to see so many people down on the waterfront yesterday to witness complete his world record breaking swim a super human feat and bringing this extremely important issue (that NZ is pretty well the only country that still allows bottom trawling in its waters) to the attention of a good chunk of the population, also bringing a lot of people and good vibes to the Wellington waterfront single-handedly contributing more to the local waterfront economy then any cruise ship has done with a zillion times more positivity. Be sure to sign the petition.
