I'm off to Auckland next month, and was looking for some pointers to which coffee shops / roasters to look out for.

Check out Ben Boyle's place, 'Ben'. It's on Fort St, surrounded by dirty old strip clubs. He roasts in there, and has a solid coffee set up. Got a Synesso and a Robur, I think.
Quality wee place.

Zigana is on the North SHore over the bridge. Great House Blend and Ray roasts there. A real character and really helpful.

Coffee Lab are well worth seeking out too. Check out:

Look under members for a big list of roasters up and down NZ and a load in AKL. How long you here for Alex?
