“Visit the mountain-top Astro Cafe at Mt John's Observatory for the most incredible 360-degree views of the Mackenzie Basin and great coffee!”
You can either drive or walk to the summit of Mt. John. Once you arrive, you will want to take a moment to soak up the impressive panoramic views of Lake Tekapo and the surrounding area. Sunshine or snow, these views do not disappoint!
Astro Cafe has a wide selection of herbal teas, hot chocolates and barista made coffee. For those hot days beneath the New Zealand sun, the Astro Cafe iced drinks and smoothies might be more suitable!
For lunch, they prepare fresh or toasted sandwiches with a variety of fillings, using local Mackenzie High Country bread. Or perhaps you may want to try the homemade soup to warm you on those cold winter days. For those who have a sweet tooth, there is an impressive selection of cakes and slices to suit everyone!
