The Broadway Tearooms & Bakery is a charming and historic café located at 31 Broadway, Reefton, serving locals and visitors since around 1874. This heritage establishment offers a warm and inviting atmosphere, perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a casual coffee break while exploring the town. The menu features a full range of hot and cold meals, including hearty breakfasts, gourmet pies, fresh bread and buns baked daily. They also cater well to dietary needs, offering vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options. The coffee is barista quality, which is a highlight for us. We also ordered the fish & chips with salad (which I found a bit oily), cheesy broccoli soup (yummy) and mushroom on egg bene (the hash brown was a pleasant surprise). The café is housed in a beautifully restored wooden building dating back to 1875, blending historic charm with modern comforts. Seating includes both indoor space for about 50 guests and outdoor tables in a sunny courtyard, making it a comfortable spot year-round. . Staff are friendly and efficient, contributing to a welcoming experience. The Broadway Tearooms & Bakery is a popular stop for travelers passing through Reefton as well as a beloved local institution. Fun Fact - the place was up for sales when we were there.

A tad disappointed with my gluten free mince on toast. While it tasted great, the serving size was midget sized.

This place was the perfect stop for a healthy, tasty lunch! We got the super salad, Moroccan spiced lamb salad, thrice cooked fries, and an almond milk cappuccino. They were all phenomenal! My husband rarely orders a salad and he loved it! Expected simple, good food, beautiful delicious desserts, and very friendly service. TONS of amazing looking Gluten Free desserts! Their coffee is strong, I would say good but not great. I tend to like a lighter flavor but if you like it bold you’ll love their coffee too.

Every time we give stumpers another chance, they disappoint. Staff are rude, grumpy. Kitchen hours are weird. We ordered the gluten free ribs, celiac, they arrived with beer battered chips… which aren’t gluten free/celiac friendly. This place needs new owners! T

We had a lovely meal tonight having popped in without a reservation on the basis of the reviews on Google. We shared the meatballs to start, I had the seafood chowder and my husband the chicken schnitzel. All of them were very tasty, but it would have been nice if they had done something to the gluten free bread, ie turned it into garlic bread rather than serving dry toast. Service was polite and efficient. The decor felt dated and lacked character but I would still recommend.

Great food, even as a gluten free vegetarian they catered very well on a couple of occasions. My partner had ribs and fish and chips and raved about how tasty it was. Beautiful set up, with wooden Canadian style inside with a fireplace and pool table and multiple tvs. Great service each time. Highly recommend.

Stopped off for lunch. Have to say we weren't quite sure what we thought as we were shown into the dinning room as it was a bit higgledy-piggledy. However the owner was very welcoming and when the food arrived it was fantastic. Gluten free wasn't a problem and my husband thought it was one of the best pizzas he's had. Definitely recommend as a lunch stop - a real taste of West Coast hospitality.
