SKYCITY and Kapiti partner to create new Sky Café experience

Aucklanders and visitors alike can now enjoy some of the country’s finest gourmet delights from great heights - with award-winning Kapiti ice creams and cheeses at the newly refurbished Sky Café up the Sky Tower this summer.

Ice cream aficionados will love getting creative at the new ‘coldstone’ ice cream bar, where they can develop their own unique flavour combinations over a cooled stone slab.

As the sun sets over Auckland, visitors can relax with unparalleled views alongside delectable cheeseboards and wines exclusively from New Zealand. Grilled cheese sandwiches and baked cheese dishes for two (including Kapiti Kahikatea Camembert, truffle oil and mushroom with grissini option) are all served up alongside popular café favourites with a gourmet twist.

SKYCITY Auckland General Manager, John Mortensen, says the new Sky Café brings together two well-loved NZ icons.

“The Sky Tower is the top tourist attraction in the country, and together with premium Kapiti ice creams and cheeses now on offer, visitors can experience New Zealand’s best in one place.”

Kapiti spokesperson, Hailey Ryan, says the premium partnership between Kapiti and the Sky Tower makes sense.

“Kapiti is all about creating unique and high quality New Zealand tastes to savour – our products combined with the stunning panoramic setting of the Sky Café offer something extra special for Aucklanders and visitors alike and we’re excited to be a part of this new venture.”
