The Storehouse is a unique cafe/florist/design store in Taupo that is well worth a visit.

Opened by Brad Dellar and Sam King, they wanted somewhere to show off all the vintage furniture they'd been collecting and restoring along with a spot for smooth coffee and delicious food.

The designed, painted, built and tiled everything themselves while also joining with Melissa, Brad's wife, who has followed her dream to become a florist within the cafe.

This place isn't situated on the lakefront, so unless you've read about it, it can be a wee bit hard to find, but, they serve up some yum coffee and have a really cool retro vintage furniture shop section. Head on up to 14 Rununga Street and get a taste of what you're missing out on.

Great space for a relaxing catch up lunch or a business meeting over coffee and cake. The delicious raw cakes and spiced carrot cake are my favourites. ...and the coffee is consistently the best in town. #cafetab

The Storehouse makes a great hot chocolate! I've got a definite sweet tooth for chocolate and their hot chocolate does pass the 'is it chocolatey enough?' test. The adjoining shop also has a great variety of quirky, retro type furniture and knick knacks - great for someone wanting to add an extra spacial touch to their home decor.

Raw cacao slice? Yes please. Gluten and dairy free and 100% yum.

Sliders to die for! Having sampled all of the flavours (more than once!) my fave is the pulled lamb. Yummo! Good coffee too.

Fresh, eclectic interior, beautiful upcycled retro goods and great coffee to top it all off. There are gluten free bagels and buns to have with any of the menu items and there are usually some delicous raw-food sweets and cakes too. Tucked away, this fabulous little spot is well worth trying. My new favourite.

Cronuts to die for
