The beautiful sweet aroma of hot waffle cones attracts customers for miles and with the hot spot location just across the road from the Mount hot pools it’s a popular treat. That’s an understatement. They are perfectly delicious and getting your toungue around one is an iconic part of the summer holidays..
This iconic Mount Maunganui business has to be at the top of my list. In summer the smell of the waffles toasting lures you in. There is always a line stretching out the door and down the road, but it’s been the same way for years and they always have plenty of staff on to keep things moving. My favourite choice is a snowghurt (half snowfreeze half youghurt) in a waffle cone. The best reward for after a walk up or round the Mount!
There’s a reason the queue for this place stretches out the door and down the footpath every summer. Their icecreams, frozen yoghurts and my favourite the snowghurt - which is a mixture of snow freeze and frozen youghurt - are amazing. They make their own waffle cones, which is a clever marketing ploy as the smell wafts down Adams Ave, enticing you in after a stroll round the Mount.
