Inside WATA Coffee & Eatery
WATA Coffee & Eatery sits comfortably in the heart of Nelson's Montgomery Square, offering a bright, clean space that locals often turn to for a relaxed coffee break or a casual meal. This café provides an easygoing vibe that suits both solo visitors looking for a good brew and families or friends wanting a low-key catch-up spot, especially on sunny mornings when natural light spills in through large windows.
The menu strikes a balance between classic café fare and a few standout dishes that regularly draw appreciative nods from patrons. Coffee drinkers will find the Atomic Coffee and Matcha Latte noteworthy, with the coffee consistently described as well-crafted and satisfying. For a quick bite, choices like the Cheese Scone and Almond Croissant offer familiar café comforts, while those after something heartier often opt for the Teriyaki Burger or the Halloumi Bacon & Roasted Veg Focaccia. Corn Fritters with bacon and salad come across as a popular choice, providing a wholesome but not overly heavy option.
Many visitors appreciate the friendly and welcoming staff who maintain attentive service even during busy periods, contributing to a pleasant atmosphere that makes it easy to settle in. The café's seating is both practical and inviting, making it a natural stop after a stroll through Nelson’s Saturday Market or a walk around the downtown area.

It tends to attract locals who appreciate good quality without fuss, as well as visitors who might be winding down after exploring town. The takeaway service during busier seasons or holiday periods adds a layer of convenience for people on the go.
