Beach Cafe Maraetai

A cheery and casual spot in Maraetai, Beach Cafe is the perfect place to park up for a delicious bite during the day. Whether you're fresh out of the ocean or just about to dive in, this charming cafe is always happy to see you.

With just a stretch of sand between you and the big blue, Beach Cafe Maraetai enjoys serene views of the crashing waves and rolling landscapes around. As the name suggests, there's nowhere better to get your 'beach' on; rock in your jandals, take a seat at any of their sunny yellow and blue chairs and let the ocean breeze and sunshine warm your bones. Joyful, relaxed and spacious on the inside, beachside bliss on the outside, this little eatery is Kiwi through and through.

As you can imagine, their menu is full of Kiwi and international comforts. For something to share, their range of small plates bear delicious gifts like pork belly croquettes, crispy chicken wings, juicy tacos and beef nachos.

If you have a generous individual plate in mind, how about a towering burger? Filled with Angus beef patties, buttermilk chicken, giant portobello mushrooms and halloumi, there's a brioche bun for everyone. And for some classic pub grub, you couldn't do better than the fish and chips, creamy truffle pasta and bbq lamb. And if it's a quick lunch you're after, a portobello wrap or chicken club sandwich will see you right. For cruisy bites by the beach, it has to be Beach Cafe Maraetai.
