Welcome to Te Chur_Ch, a delightful cafe nestled in the charming Otaki Beach area at 84 Moana Street, New Zealand. This hidden gem is more than just a coffee shop; it's a vibrant gathering place where great taste meets community spirit.

Imagine sipping a perfectly brewed cup of coffee made from locally sourced beans, all while enjoying the warm sun and gentle beach breeze. The cafe prides itself on its commitment to quality, and the reviews reflect just that. One customer, Yessica IJpma, raves about the "lovely service and hospitality" paired with "the best tea and coffee." Don't miss out on their peppermint tea, which is highly recommended for a refreshing beverage that will awaken your senses.

Te Chur_Ch offers a cozy and inviting atmosphere, perfect for weekend brunches or a quick stop after a day at the beach. With outdoor seating areas that allow you to soak in the beautiful coastal surroundings, it's an ideal spot to relax and unwind. As Sean Connolly describes, their "fantastic coffee" is complemented perfectly by a decadent brownie that ignites a blissful harmony of rich flavors—best enjoyed warmed up for that melt-in-your-mouth experience.

If you're a coffee aficionado, you’ll appreciate the praises sung by Geoff Bilbrough, who suggests that the cafe’s offerings are “pretty good,” and encourages patrons to support local businesses by giving generously through their koha system. Moving from Melbourne, Joel Stachlewski found this little cafe to be among his top picks in a city rich with coffee culture—a true testament to Te Chur_Ch's excellence.

Not only is the coffee irresistible, but the atmosphere and service make every visit memorable. As Helen Mallon notes, it’s a place with "great coffee" where you can also enjoy "fab service" and "delicious food," all while being greeted by an adorable dog seeking cuddles. The feeling of community here is as palpable as the aroma of freshly brewed coffee.

So, whether you’re a local or just passing through, Te Chur_Ch promises an exceptional experience that delights the palate and warms the heart. Stop by for a cup of joy and become part of this thriving Otaki Beach community!

Lovely service and hospitality, plus the best tea and coffee, and close to the beach. Try the peppermint tea ;)

Coffee is “pretty good” according to the coffee drinker. High praise. Coffee by koha. Give generously. Support local.

Fantastic coffee and a delicious brownie. I'd highly recommend stopping by :) they heated the brownie up and it was melt in the mouth. It was everything I wanted today!

Moving from Melbourne Australia, where I was spoiled for great coffee places, I have to say this place would be up there with my top pick! Good atmosphere with outdoor seating areas and small selection of cakes/mufgins. Staff here are friendly, efficient and consistent in the making of Otaki's best coffee, that is well priced. Thank you! After trying other places in town this is well worth the drive out or stop over on the way to the beach.
