Notable chef Casual

Tucked away on Somerset Street in Frankton, Gather is a bright and welcoming café serving up a mix of fine flavours crafted by talented local chefs. The menu spans house-made smoothies, milkshakes, teas, coffees, soups, fresh cabinet bites, and a chef-curated selection of dishes, with a hot roast lunch every Sunday drawing a loyal crowd.

Just a short walk from Hamilton’s CBD and seconds from Seddon Park, Gather is perfectly placed for a pre- or post-game refuel, while Hamilton Gardens and Lake Rotoroa are only a quick drive away. The café serves multi-award-winning Chiasso coffee and was voted Gilmours Hospo Hotspot for Hamilton. You’ll also find Gather’s food at Propeller and Jet Fuel cafés inside Hamilton Airport.

With sunny décor, friendly service, and a cabinet always brimming with treats, it’s no surprise Gather is a local favourite.
