After an incredible 8 years in our current catering kitchen at Vogel Street…. we are excited to announce our catering department is on the move to a new site later this year. Our new kitchen is purpose-built for catering and will greatly increase our capacity to assist Dunedin & our clients in their catering needs.

We have loved every moment in our current space as we have grown from a small takeaway shop & catering kitchen to now having our café located at Tuhūra museum and our catering department outgrowing the current kitchen.

Make sure to watch out for building updates on our socials!

Our directors Liz & Steve are super excited to be heading to Wellington this weekend to attend the 2025 where we are a finalist again! We won outstanding caterer at the last awards in 2023 and we are beyond stoked to be recognised again.

We can’t thank our clients enough for the support over the last couple of years - weddings are some of our most favourite events to cater for as we love helping to celebrate the most special of days.

Hi all you wonderful Precinct supporters.

We have held our coffee prices unchanged for the last 2 years and have absorbed significant cost increases over that time. But we have reached the point where we need to reset our coffee prices in line with the cost increases we have encountered. From today coffees will cost $1 more. We value your loyalty and all the wonderful compliments we receive, and wish we could keep prices down, but we need to stay viable.

Rest assured the coffee will be as good as ever and we appreciate your understanding as we make this change.

Due to the declared State of Emergency, Tūhura Otago Museum and Precinct café will remain closed today. Our thoughts are with all those impacted during this difficult time. Please take care and stay safe. We will continue to provide updates as the situation develops.
