Columbus Coffee - Greymouth

Yummy food but didn't have available what was on the menu eg salmon. Not enough cutlery in the container they gave us, we asked for more but it wasn't brought. We had to go find our own. Didn't appear particularly busy.

It's quite odd that such a lovely cafe, with a nice environment, great food, friendly staff can be found in a small west coast town, tucked away in a Mitre 10 Mega department store. My partner and I got Eggs Benedict, Belgian Waffles and two frappes, and it's easy to say we were in love (with the food). Some of the best hollandaise I've had, and just look at that presentation. My only disappointment was that my yolks weren't runny, but that's a personal preference. Though we were intrigued by the coffee, the fruit (Mango, and Apple Feijoa) left us feeling fresh and ready for our long day of walking and travel. We did find some dead flies on our table near the window, but hard to knock them for that as it was a clean space, they were a harmless brush away, and that's just life.

What a great experience at Columbus Cafe Greymouth. After 4 hrs driving and already being rudely turned away by a cafe who 'd run out of food. Columbus also affected by the busy holiday time and the NZ shortage of ingredients e.g. eggs (so had limited menu items). What a different positive 'can do ' attitude staff were so creative offering other food alternatives. Even creating a new menu item Caesar Brioche chicken Burger with polenta fries. Wow thanks team for going above and beyond for some hungry 'out of town ' NZ tourists!! Great coffee drinks too!

All the meals were really nice. They were really busy but got my food pretty quickly and staffs were very kind.

Had decaf coffee. Excellent taste and great service. Highly recommended Christina
