3 Little Pigs

A lively Gisborne staple where parents can linger over flat whites while the fenced play pen keeps toddlers occupied. Settling in feels like stepping into a friend’s rambling house—vintage crates lining the walls, potted greenery, and a community book exchange benefiting the local food bank. The kitchen runs an unusually attentive ship for diners with coeliac disease, screening orders at the counter to adapt dishes cleanly. Morning plates lean hearty, from crisp zucchini fritters stacked with poached egg and beetroot relish to chili scrambles and flaky chicken pies.
