My favourite Streetwise cart at the moment in Palmerston North because the ice coffee "S" makes is simply "delicious" . And she's accommodating with specific diet orders so I appreciate her flexibility very much. I believe orders are made to menu on display 99% of the time. My mix wasn't on the menu. It was half ice cream half ice cubes, vanilla syrup and whipped cream and choc sprinkles Thankyou!!

I visited twice this street side coffee trailer while I was visiting Palmerston North on a business trip. Quite petite but efficiently run I could notice. Without proper real estate you would think the coffee could be cheaper than the ones served in other properly set up cafés. Not the case. Their coffees are quite expensive. On the first visit, the coffee taste was beautiful. I was so happy and the pain of the price point was quickly forgotten. On the second visit however, I was so disappointed by the watery taste of the coffee, so weak and lacking the character. By the time I realised this, I was already in the car travelling. Based on my experience, the coffee is not consistent. They should be measuring things and try to make the coffee taste more consistent. There are not many coffee places in the area. However, with their price point, I am not sure if it is worth taking the risk. The people were friendly though.
