Best coffee in Northland, friendly staff, great music, fun T shirts, roast own beans. Not much more I can say and 100 words is hard just for coffee!

Quaint little place with lots of character. Staff were friendly and provided exceptional service. Myself and the family got the classic toastie which is hands down the best toastie I’ve ever eaten. Drinks were just as good

This is a really nice café in Russell. We stopped there just for a coffee, which was excellent. He'll Hole has a delightful ambiance, efficient and friendly staff. We'd really like to return there when we next visit NZ to experience their menu.

We went here for breakfast and had a very tasty meal (highly recommend the bagels and the healthy smoothy!). It’s a great place to hang out. Comfortable seating inside with a few tables outside. Very friendly staff.

We stayed across the road in York House and Hell Hole was our morning ritual. Delicious house roasted coffee. Great toasties and Blats. Very nice people. So good!
