Black Forest Café
About
Black Forest Café serves South Island from 7 Derwent Street in Naseby, where diners have given it a 4.7 out of 5 average across 295 reviews.
Reaching Naseby from the main towns takes road travel, since hire cars are the usual way to cover the larger islands and traffic drives on the left. The café sits inland from the coastal centres of Christchurch, Dunedin, Nelson, Blenheim and Kaikoura, and away from the lakeside towns of Queenstown, Wanaka and Te Anau. Black Forest Café operates as a restaurant, and its identity is tied to the Naseby area.
The Southern Alps run down the South Island, and Naseby's inland position puts it within that wider mountain setting. English is the main language and te reo Māori is also official, so Māori place names appear throughout the country.
Hāngī, a meal cooked in an earth oven, and the pavlova dessert are both part of New Zealand food culture, so a stop here fits naturally into a wider eating itinerary. Naseby sits well away from the coastal centres, which makes the café a practical pause for anyone driving between the island's towns.
