Wine country coffee culture in Hawke's Bay
Hastings Coffee Scene
Hastings anchors Hawke's Bay wine country with a café scene influenced by viticultural proximity. The city serves as gateway to New Zealand's premier wine region, and coffee culture reflects this - many cafés source local produce and transition from morning espresso to afternoon wine tastings.
Havelock North village, just minutes from central Hastings, offers boutique café culture with vineyard views. The village's proximity to wineries like Te Mata Estate and Craggy Range makes it a popular stop for wine tourists seeking quality coffee between tastings.
