Havana Coffee Works

Wellington


Continuing Wellington's unwavering obsession with all things Cuba, this fantastic retro-imaginative roastery and coffee lounge offers heart-jolting coffee and smiles all round. Nibbles are limited to the likes of scones, bagels, cakes and pies from the warmer. There's also a takeaway counter in the roastery, open till 5pm.
