Built for Caffeine

In this handsome and most appealing book Ben Crawford visits 20 cafes from the Boatshed Cafe at Rawene to the Diesoline Espresso in Dunedin. He chose them for their excellent coffee and also for design and fit-out.
Cafes in Auckland, Tauranga, Cambridge, Taupo, Wellington, Christchurch and Queenstown are also included.
Apart from being a dab hand at DIY Ben proves to also be a highly skilled photographer and his excellent shots inside each of the selected cafes are a feature of the book.l The only negative is the size of the typeface employed, I don't know what the publishers were thinking on this one. Far too small.
