The Old Post Office Country Store
Upper Moutere
1381 Moutere Highway, Upper Moutere 7173
A much-loved Upper Moutere local, The Old Post Office Country Store brings together great coffee, local flavours, handmade preserves, art and beautiful jewellery, all under one historic roof.
At the heart of Upper Moutere, The Old Post Office Country Store is well worth a stop for anyone who loves discovering the people and flavours behind our region. This character-filled building is home to several local businesses, making it a lovely spot to browse, sip and linger awhile.
The store serves Rabbit Island Coffee alongside fresh local baking and bread, and its shelves are stocked with artisan goodies including local milk, cheeses, smallgoods, olive oil and fresh salads. It’s also the home of Moutere Gold, whose handmade preserves are made on-site in a small garden kitchen. Keep an eye out for small-batch creations you won’t find elsewhere.
There’s plenty beyond the pantry too. Browse locally made art, pottery, textiles and soaps in the gallery area, or visit Stacey Whale Jewellery, where elegant pieces are handcrafted using fine gemstones and metals.
Take your time, meet the makers, pick up something delicious or locally made, then settle into the outdoor courtyard and enjoy the easy-going pace of this little rural village.
