Unexpected stop in this little coffee shop next to the Koalas hospital. I was surprised to find a great menu with smoothies, fresh juices, brunch options and not only some pastries!! A big thumb up for the gluten-free options. We tried the Monkey Business smoothie, Moka coffee, smashed avocado & waffles: everything was so tasty! Plus, the staff is really friendly. The spot is perfect to rest a bit and enjoy some good vibes surrounding by birds and koalas. I recommend it 100% after visiting the Koalas hospital:)

I've had the Jaffa and Caramello hot chocolate flavours in my two visits and both tasted really nice. Such a casual and relaxed atmosphere where there's all types of seating available including on a rug mat. Service was friendly and I noticed the staff were providing opportunities for others to learn new work skills which I admired so much. Well done.

One of the very few places in the Hastings that doesn't charge extra for lactose free milk. Also, best salmon bagel and beautiful staff team

We got a high tea for 3, which happily served mum, dad, and 3 kids (1, 3, 6). The team arranged a "kid friendly" platter that was awesome too. It was served under the trees, and nothing was left out, nor too much trouble for the team. Highly recommend, and will happily come back next time we're in Port. The house itself is a great little museum of life past, with memorabilia of the previous owners.

We recently had a High Tea at Roto House for my 70th Birthday with family. It was just the best birthday with the perfect setting and atmosphere, not to mention the scrumptious food. We were lucky enough to have a room inside which was decorated for the occasion. A big thank you to Jess who welcomed us for your service. I would highly recommend Roto House for a special function to anyone. Thankyou

What a beautiful little place amongst the gum trees to stop for coffee and morning tea. Banana bread and fruit toast absolutely amazing. Staff were very friendly and service was quick with a smile. Highly recommend stopping.

The history of the Flynn family was very interesting and engaging. It told the story of times gone by very well. We enjoyed the setting, surrounded by majestic trees. The cafe was a delight.
