Needed a coffee on a blustery bike ride so we popped into the first and only coffee shop we saw in Otautau. Nice little place. Good coffee, which fueled us up for the ride home.

Oh my gosh..... this little wee gem makes the best custard square and chocolate fudge anywhere, and their homemade pies are phenomenal.

Had a meat loaf sandwich. Authentic, tasted like a home made sandwich. Milkshakes was perfect and the bliss ball was blissful. Yum

Wow! I love my pies. However I had not experienced a really fantastic pie until now. I never thought it would have come from my old home town! If you're traveling to otautau be sure to ask for one. . I don't know the owners...just a happy customer. Puts Jimmy to shame. Great Job fight to open on Sunday would be your best trading day. I don't often do reviews but felt compelled. Thanks heaps.More

The moment you walk in the door your greeted by the warm hospitality this small but cosy Southland Cafe has to offer. The food is reliably good and plentiful servings of home cooking. Coffee is yum and the staff are really down to earth, welcoming...and make you feel at home. The first thing I noticed was the presence of a large deer head hanging prominently on one wall as I entered. This clearly signified I had arrived in the Southland region. The rest of the Cafe is then quaintly decorated with plates covering the walls and has a bright sunny aspect. I have visited on 3 occasions to visit friends of my family while staying in this town and would highly recommend breakfast or a coffee and scones or cake at this place. You will not be disappointed.More

The Main Street Cafe in Otautau, is without a doubt one of the best cafe's in the southern part of the South Island. Home cooking at its best. There have been numerous comments by various people, but the review by another chef caught my eye,...after i had eaten there,More
