Local Hidden Gem Cafe 171
Cafe 171! We have discovered this fantastic little spot. The staff are are amazing, excellent service, delicious coffee and food, and so very accomodating. Child and dog friendly, water bowls for the 4 legged children! Such a relaxing atmosphere every time we visit. (They have so much space, for indoor and outdoor meets and functions too)
They also have a new $20 coffee card where you can purchase a $20 coffee card that entitles you to 10 coffees!
Highly recommend! www.farmsidebuffet.co.nz...
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
