Origin Coffee Espresso And Roastery

Lee at origin coffee is the BEST! We arrived on the train without a car, not realizing how small a town Otorohanga was, and didn’t have a way to get to our hotel. We popped into the coffee shop to sit down and figure it out, and not only was the food and drink delicious, but lee offered to give us a ride in his own car. I can’t overstate how grateful we were, and how lovely of a community this coffee shop creates. Thank you Lee and origin coffee!

Best cappuccino ever! I been to 39 countries and I thought Italy had the best coffee but this place blew my socks off! Only 1 person making the coffee with love but it’s so worth the wait! Had to give a review to this place that makes the best coffee in the world so far on my quest. Don’t miss this hidden gem!

Probably the best place in town to get a coffee. I loved how the coffee came with a jaffa and a little cookie. The guy there is super friendly which made it helpful. If you are just driving through then make a quick coffee stop here.

Quite possibly the best coffee I have had in such a long time! I am going to start buying my coffee from here now. Everything about this place is super quaint and the smell of roasting coffee is delicious.

Absolutely loved the iced mocha Frappe I had here. I'm often left very underwhelmed by frappe' generally, but this one was so well balanced. The sweetness and bitterness complemented each other so well. Also learnt where Rugby originated from, so definitely worth a stop by for good coffee and good service/banter!!
