Griffin & Pops really shows off the eclectic side of the Kāpiti Coast. The proprietor, Ivan, is a quintessential host, neighbor and community connector. Come in for a beverage, a pot plant, local craft, a game of chess or a bag of beans. It’s worth the detour! Open early, close late.

Love this place! My new favorite hangout. I'm a muso and all the musos come here. Chill atmosphere, Ivan roasts his own beans, there's local products for sale. A real village feel. Open mic night Thursday. LOVE this place.
Absolutely love this place—hands down my favorite café! I honestly don’t know if I love the coffee or the host more… and trust me, I really love my coffee. The vibe is an eclectic mix of old-school charm and fresh, funky energy, with a laid-back, welcoming atmosphere where everyone feels at home.nnI’ve met some truly awesome people here—just while waiting for my flat white which, by the way, is the best flat white on the coast. There’s always something interesting to check out, whether it’s upcoming events, local jams, or unique plants for sale.nnAnd let’s talk about the coffee! Ivan, the host, roasts his own beans with a real passion for perfecting every cup. It’s this kind of dedication that makes every visit special.nnBeyond great coffee, this café has a strong sense of community, which is something rare and valuable. Oh, and if you’re a musician—of any level—you must check out the Thursday open mic nights. They’re some of the best in Wellington!nnCan’t recommend this place enough.
On my way to Waikanae I was told it was a sleepy retirement community with little chance of good coffee... That could not have been more wrong. A quick stop for directions turned into engaging conversation, drum lessons and some incredible coffee. Ivan has created a hub for locals and visitors with an appreciation for all things weird, wonderful and caffeinated. Thank you for making a weary traveler so welcome.
