They are world famous for their hamburgers and meals with a bistro type kitchen, serving good kiwi fried food, toasted sandwiches, burgers and meals. During the summer band nights season they open early to serve breakfast for all the campers in the farm across the road. Bacon and eggs, and the All Day Breakfast are very popular! Easter to November, they do a roast dinner on Wednesday nights and on some special occasions they even dig a hole in the backyard and do a hangi, or a pig on a spit.

	The kitchen is open 7 days a week, all day from 11 am through to 9 pm (8pm on Sundays and Mondays in winter). Accommodation: They have good accomodation as well, handy to the Pinnacles and situated mid-way between Whitianga and Hot Water Beach.
