Cypress Cafe, Saint Heliers


Cypress Cafe
10 St Heliers Bay Road,
Saint Heliers
New Zealand

Large flat white: $4.50

This cafĂ© is right next door to the awful coffee I last had. Let’s hope it is WAY better!

Coffee: It tastes a little funny at the start, and turns out because it is burnt. It’s much better than drinking water though. (3.5/5)

Milk:  It’s milk, but not frothed or foamed the way I’d like it to be.  (3.5/5)

Presentation: The cup, from Roma coffee roasters, is unique with its own branding. It’s solid and doesn’t leak. (3/3)

Verdict: If you have a choice between this place and the Breadwinner, torch the Breadwinner and come in here. The coffee isn’t too bad.

Overall rating: 10/13. Not too bad actually. I still expect better from St Heliers, but compared to the awful one I had previously, it’s like heaven.
