A beautiful setting inside and out, nestled under huge birds of paradise plants, olive trees, and bamboo.
Coffee and food fantastic. It's definitely worth a stop. Great playground for kids, so you can relax and enjoy
Michael, the barista, and his co-team really make this place. Everyone is full of smiles, and nothing is a problem.

Very good place for on the road breakfast. Maybe even too good for a place on the road. Loved our foods and milkshakes :)) definitely suggest to stop for a quick bite if you have time going north or coming south;)

Ordered coffee and a muffin. Coffee was really good. I am a big coffee lover and often I'm not happy with cafe's coffee but here was great. Berry muffin was too sweet. Sugar on top too. They also have a nice play ground for kids. Not new but it's ok.
They sell homemade stuff too.

Good cafe style food. Enthusiastic unpolished service. One of the few places where you can order Bowl (Rusty Bucket) coffee. I always try to stop here if I can when in the area. 🙂

Flat White Bucket
Nice service. Great short black. Hot water on the side offered which is good. Good hot chocolate. Went two days in a row. Big breakfast delicious, mince on toast very tasty, my partner had scrambled eggs both days and enjoyed it. Took about 10 minutes for food to arrive when it was around 10% full.
We always visit at least once when visiting Kerikeri.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Rusty Tractor Cafe in Kerikeri for lunch, and it was an absolute delight! From the moment we walked in, I knew we were in for a wonderful experience.
The chicken burger special we ordered was simply amazing! The tender chicken, flavorful toppings, and perfectly cooked patty left us craving for more. The seafood chowder was also a highlight, with a rich and creamy broth packed with a medley of fresh seafood that tantalized our taste buds.
The exceptional service at Rusty Tractor Cafe truly stood out. The staff was welcoming, friendly, and attentive, catering to our every need with warm smiles. The cozy and rustic ambiance added to the overall enjoyment of our meal. The cafe was clean and well-maintained, providing a comfortable setting to relax and savor the delicious food.
Each dish was presented with impeccable attention to detail, showcasing the passion and care put into every meal. Rusty Tractor Cafe goes above and beyond to create a top-notch dining experience.
Overall, our lunch at Rusty Tractor Cafe was a true culinary adventure. The combination of delicious food, excellent service, and charming ambience left us thoroughly impressed.
