What We Do

Craig and Gail’s Café

Craig and Gail’s Café: Whakamaru will be a hub for our whole community, and Craig and Gail’s café will be at the heart of that hub. Serving high quality food and excellent coffee, Craig and Gail’s will operate under a ‘contribute-what-you-can’ model. The model means those who can’t afford to pay can enjoy a koha meal, while those who can afford to contribute will be able to provide kai and companionship to others.

A welcoming and inclusive café for everyone, our manuhiri, and indeed any member of the public, can enjoy Craig and Gail’s for as long as they want during opening hours. The space will provide opportunities for people to strike up unlikely connections and friendships with people who they wouldn’t usually connect with. Open Monday to Saturday, we will also occasionally have live music and karaoke on the stage.

CRAIG AND GAIL’S CAFÉ HOURS:
