Built by the New Zealand government in 1904, our Tea Kiosk is one of only three ever constructed, each placed alongside thermal springs at a time when the government championed the restorative benefits of mineral bathing. Of those three, ours is the only one still serving guests today.
Lovingly refurbished in 2015 with care taken to preserve its heritage character, the Tea Kiosk Café & Grill sits right at the heart of the pools complex with views that are hard to beat. Whether you're fuelling up before a soak or winding down after one, choose from comfortable indoor seating or settle in on our covered outdoor deck, whatever the weather.
The menu has something for everyone: hearty Kiwi favourites, fresh pizzas from our authentic pizza oven, a breakfast menu, kids options, and a full range of hot and cold drinks, snacks, and ice cream. We're fully licensed too, so a cold drink in the sun is always an option.
Good food, great views, and over 120 years of history beneath your feet.
