Whilst on holiday from the UK we visited La Planta with our son and his wife who live in Nelson. Pablo, the owner, made us very welcome. The coffees and wide range of drinks and the food available are excellent and a visit here is a must when in Nelson.

Been an absolute fan of La Planta from day one. I've watched it grow to a really lovely community space, to meet people and chill out. Pablo holds regular events as well as teaching Spanish and dance classes. As Nelson's first fully sustainable cafe - even the tetra packs are sent to Hamilton for proper recycling - I'm happy to support his ethics while enjoying the ver best coffee in town. Go check him out!
