The Workman Cafe is in the Hobbiton themed Matamata and is a warm friendly place to grab a bite and a coffee when in the area. I also enjoy their slightly quirky decor and collection of old school memorabilia and transistor radio’s.

The quirkiness extends to their sign outside, so all in all it befits the whole experience and it draws you in time and time again. Me thinks they have a good handle on customer value and he food is pretty good too![/fusion_text][/fusion_builder_column][/fusion_builder_row][/fusion_builder_container]
