Warning!
Ordinary people who frequented this Café have been known to morph into super-fit Coast-to-Coast athletes, with restless spirits, lean bodies, hard hands and slow heartbeats. We have seen it happen to people of either sex and almost any age. Some of them were last seen charging over the Southern Alps and careering down the raging rapids of the Waimakariri River gorge in kayaks and yes . . . we have been blamed.
It has even been known to happen that two young people of the opposite sex meet here in the boatshed, morph as described above, race together across the southern alps, and return at last to be married right here on the premises where it all began.
However, there are always those who refuse to be drawn into what they perhaps consider to be such unecessary adventures. They insist on coming here to simply relax and enjoy lakeside tranquillity over a civilised glass of wine, good food, good company, or a great coffee. And why not! They balance out our clientele with their saner contribution to the scene
