Located in what was once a warehouse in Ponsonby, the
Good One coffee shop is famous not only for the brews they make, but also for their large collection of National Geographic magazines. It is the flagship of the
Supreme coffee brand. Another one under this umbrella is the
Supreme Seafarers. For my blogpost about that coffee shop, please click
here.
Overall grade: 4.5/5.0
Unique charms:
- It was once a warehouse, which has been renovated into a coffee shop
- The posters on their walls show the customers the coffee making process
- "Bare bones" industrial, minimalist decor; this style enhances their brand image.
- Free water options: bubbly or still
- There is a coffee tasting room that is open to the public on certain days of the week. Good for new product test-runs.
- The large National Geographic collection
- Friendly staff
However, if you're someone who doesn't like the cold, you might want to take your coffee back to your office or accommodation, because after all, it is a warehouse, and the high ceilings mean a cooler indoor temperature - almost as cool as it is outdoors. Nonetheless, don't forget that in summer months, this place would be cooler than outside, because of the very same high ceiling.
Impressive in its own right, but not quite reaching the same level as
Kokako due to their lack of food options, but maybe they aren't aiming for that. For my post about
