Bridge Café is a quirky, country style café situated in Ballance, just a short 25 minute drive from Palmerston North. Fortunate to be surrounded by picturesque native bush and the Manawatu River, the large rustic building and outdoor area provides a beautiful spot worth visiting year-round.

The Bridge Café team is dedicated to providing you with food and coffee you will remember. We are very passionate about making EVERYTHING in our kitchen, using locally sourced and in-season ingredients to create our menu and cabinet food.

Bush walks, horse trekking, jet boating and a gift shop right next door makes Bridge Café a fantastic location for a day out and a real country experience. There is a large playroom inside the café and a sandpit outside which provides the perfect distraction for the little ones.... so sit back, relax and enjoy the view.
