"What a gem! Homemade pies and amazing cabinet food. I had a gluten-free brownie, and my husband had a pie – he said he could tell it was homemade. We had a day trip out of Auckland, went to Piha Beach for a walk to see the black sand and fantastic rock formations. We stopped at The Piha Store for a drink and snacks. Very good coffee, amazing brownie (indulgent), and we even got some good mandarins for a healthy snack. There’s a good range of sandwiches/rolls too. The owner quickly picked up our Aussie accent and exchanged some banter, so be prepared for a chat. All good fun. We asked about local walks, and the owner gave us a tip on the Mercer Bay Loop. It was a great recommendation. Chloe C."

Here’s a fun fact: if you’re heading to Piha and want to feel the true vibes of the road, The Piha Store has created an epic playlist just for you! Check out their Sing Along Roady Tunes on Spotify – perfect for your cruise through the Waitakere Ranges to the beach.
