With its superb location overlooking the tranquil Whairepo Lagoon, with the skyline of downtown Wellington beyond, the Karaka Café is a perfect place to while away one of Wellington’s lovely afternoons. Your outdoor table (lots of indoor seating as well) is a simple wooden platform with a couple of bean bags to sit on beneath a shady umbrella. You order via an app (of course...this is 2021!) and your food and drinks are delivered to you by one of the café’s friendly staff. There is an extensive menu to peruse but we chose a bowl of warm olives and some thin, tasty kumara chips to accompany our glasses of delicious Sauvignon Blanc. Don’t believe everything you hear about Wellington’s dodgy weather. On a good day, and the Windy City has plenty of them, Wellington is beautiful. And the Karaka Café is a great place to spend a lazy afternoon in the sunshine.

One of the best spots to enjoy drinks and nibbles on a sunny day in Wellington. Always enjoy sitting on those huge bean bags.
Lovely restaurant situated in a fantastic spot. The food was amazing had morning tea, lunch and supper there. Lunch lying on the grass watching dragon boat practice, and supper in doors out of the wind.
A great location and popular venue especially on the weekends, but we managed to get a table straight away though which was great. We had breakfast and coffee. Both were delicious. Next time I will be brave and try one of their specials. Will definitely come beck next time I'm in Wellington
Absolutely love the vibe of this place and coffee and food beautiful. The staff are awesome, polite helpful and everything done with a smile. As retirees and healthy foodies (the salad choice is fantastic) who spend time travelling NZ this would be at the top of our list and we will definitely make it a destination in the future. Keep up the good work guys...you rock !
Located next to the waters of Wellington, close proximity to the art gallery. Lots of spots to take good photos. With outside bean bags seats, bubbly friendly staff who are really proactive. And good use of local produce. Everyone enjoyed our meals at Karaka cafe.
Great site right on the lagoon for some relaxing drinks and food. Wonderful indoor outdoor flow A band plays on Saturday night, Great chef
Was so nice to sit on the beanbags outside on the steps. Great coffee and food. Service was lovely.
