We served 32,966 hot meals to manuhiri at Whakamaru in 2025, ensuring nobody in our community has to go hungry.

Serving high quality food and excellent coffee, Craig & Gail’s operates 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 provides 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.

7:30am – 3pm
