Absolutely amazing food and the staff and people are all so friendly and open! Note the drive is definately made for a lot of petrol but its os so worth it! No traffic, the river is constantly out your door.

Unfortunately the unit we stayed in was infested with ants which were in the bathroom, kitchen and bedroom. We awoke to find them in our beds and crawling all over us. Most unpleasant experience. I advised the manager but he didn't really apologise and I believe he was aware of the situation. His response was that he would need to get a pest controller in. I felt he didn't believe us, but we showed the cleaners and they were shockewd.

Taihape has a captive client base as everyone has to travel through there. McDonald's doesn't open till 10am for breakfast. There are various degrees or quality of food outlets. There is a good cheap fuel outlet which I think is Waitomo. We were directed to either subway or the roast shop beside it. The roast shop smelt heavily of cigarette smoke so we opted for subway which was clean and tidy. Taihape could do with more quality cafes. I go through often and normally target the army museum as my stop off point as the food is quality and predictable. Taihape needs to upgrade its overall image of food outlets to cause more people to want to stop there.

Great resting place on our journey South and then again on our way North. We enjoyed being able to walk around the town and loved our time in the Brown Sugar Cafe.
There were a great selection of shops to interest all and Taihape is in close proximity to enjoy many Rangitikei activities.
