Black Swan Cafe has a rich history that dates back to the 1950s, when it was known as The Black Swan Tea Rooms. Since then, it has gone through several changes over the decades with the notable addition of Waihola Motel in late 1970s.
Today the cafe is a great place to stop and refuel your body on your travels. Heading towards The Catlins, Queenstown or Invercargill? Stop by for a refreshing cuppa, comforting and delicious meals, light snacks, decadent sweets, traditional bakings, creamy milkshakes and thirst-quenching smoothies.
