Great little find, superb and attentive service, great food (Scones, granola, eggs - every meal was a winner). Cannot recommend highly enough!
(Table in the gorgeous sun just made it all even better!)

Can't wait to get back there for brunch. We went there for my wife's birthday. Food, atmosphere, and staff were all
Brilliant 👏.

Absolutely 5 stars. One of the best breakfast places I've ever been to as for nice, cheery vibe and INCREDIBLE food. Wow

Outstanding food! Appreciated that they made our bacon extra crispy and poached eggs over hard as requested. Especially enjoyed the organic offerings. Staff were very kind.

Yum yum. Have become a bacon butty fan since arriving in NZ. This one was very tasty with an egg added. Daughter loved her eggs Benedict. Plus we also had a buttery croissant, scone and fantastic lattes. At first we thought they had gone out of business but just keep walking down the alley and you'll find them. Worth the hunt!

Great place! Popped in for dinner 3 times over a week it was so good. Had seafood chowder twice (absolutely superb!) and beef roti once (messy but super tasty - almost identical to one from Madam Woo / Hawker & Roll). Service was quick and friendly, prices a little high but ok considering tourist town. Highly recommended and will be back next time in Wanaka.

Great coffee and scones. We were served by an gentleman who gave exceptional service and was really kind. After l wished l asked him his name. We would most definitely visit there again when we come back to Wanaka.

I’ve always only been to Urban Grind for my cheese scones whenever I’m in Wanaka until a friend suggested Federal Diner cos he thinks they make better coffee. Although I’m not a coffee drinker, I am a scone lover.
Verdict? The coffee is good but not consistent apparently BUT the cheese scone is the best one I’ve had. The crust of slightly burnt cheese just tastes better with each bite. And it was so moist and moorish on the inside, it didn’t even need butter!
Although tucked away in an alley, you still get some view of the mountains, even from the inside. Ooh, and it is table service. With a smile. Definitely friendlier than the former.
