6 months agoWe had a wonderful experience at Kaipara Coast Plant Centre & Sculpture Gardens on Valentine’s Day! The atmosphere was cozy and lovely, making it a perfect place to spend the evening. It’s a fantastic family-run business with amazing people who provide excellent service. The sculptures add the charm to the gardens. If you’re looking for high-quality plants for your garden, I highly recommend them. A truly special and welcoming place!

7 months agoAmazing hidden gem The plant centre is probably the best on I’ve ever been to. The sculpture garden was surprisingly great, big enough to spend a wee while walking round and seeing a variety of different style art pieces plus the detail that has gone into the garden is wonderful. Also, coffee was great 😊

a year agoSculpture and bush walks were great and the shop & cafe good. We were very impressed about whole experience. You can choose different routes and activities, we did all 3 paths 4km and 1,5h when stopping at times too.

a year agoWow! We had a wonderful afternoon, spent, walking the sculpture trail and exploring the plant centre. With a cuppa and a muffin, in the little cafe, to finish off a great long weekend. The sculptures were interesting. Hubby is a metal and stainless steel fabricator, sò was very impressed with the metal sculptures. The gardens were immaculate and the cafe area was clean and welcoming, after the walk. It’s well manned by friendly, young staff members. All in all, a great experience. Highly recommended.

7 months agoThis review is for the cafe ( not for the sculpture garden!). The coffee was disappointingly very average. Buck for money wasn't that flashy, pretty expensive for a small cup of coffee. Service was pretty disappointing, she was just"doing her job" with no smile on her face or getting (maybe she had only a bad day?). I would not come for this cafe, there are better ones close by.
