A Local Gem in Our Coastal Community

Switch Cafe, located in Carnaby Lane, New Brighton, is celebrating 20 years of being at the heart of our beautiful coastal community. It's a space where locals and visitors alike can enjoy coffee, great food, work, attend events, or simply spend time by the beach. With ethically sourced beans roasted locally here in Ōtautahi by Switch Espresso, you know we take coffee seriously. From single-origin cold drip and filter through to blends known as Brighton Up and Zap, we have your daily coffee fix ready to serve by our friendly baristas.

Delicious Food for Everyone

With hearty cabinet food that tempts you and daily baked favourites, there's always something new to eye up at the counter. Our breakfast brunch menu is designed to satisfy. Enjoy classics like eggs benedict, perfectly poached eggs, and house-made silky hollandaise. Don't miss the Big Switch breakfast, which uses free-range produce for a wholesome start to your day.
