Inside Whispers Cafe, the counter, fresh flowers and the blackboard menu

A Levin table since 1985

Hand-crafted food, on Oxford Street.

All-day brunch, organic coffee and a cabinet baked in-house. Open seven days, 7am til 3pm, the same warm welcome for forty years.

Two cocoa-dusted cappuccinos catching the morning light

Two coffees, a corner table, and the cabinet still warm. This is how Levin has started the day for four decades.

Brunch that fills the table

Hotcakes with bacon, banana and maple. Three-egg omelettes. The big stack of grilled bacon, avocado and tomato on toasted sourdough. Cooked fresh from 7 til 3, seven days.

100% organic beans

Coffee worth the stop

Flat whites, cappuccinos, mochas and chai, pulled properly and dusted by hand. Milkshakes, iced coffee and hot chocolate for the ones who do not do coffee.

The Whispers cabinet full of freshly baked slices and pies

Baked in-house

A cabinet you plan around

Scones, friands and muffins, savoury frittata and quiche, plus a run of slices with real gluten-free and vegan options. It is why people come back on the way through.

The Whispers dining room, local artists' work hung across the walls

Since 1985

More a Levin living room than a cafe.

Whispers has been locally owned and run on Oxford Street for forty years. Eating is a need, we like to say, enjoying it is an art.

The walls carry work by local artists, the tables fill with regulars and travellers alike, and everything in the cabinet is made by hand. It is the kind of place people plan their drive through Levin around.

Whispers has an amazing selection of baked goods and freshly made food. The service was good and the staff were friendly. If you are travelling through Levin I would stop in and have some food here.

A note from the builder

Like it? It is yours.

I am Si from ProperSites. I build a real, working site for a business before I ever pitch it, so what you are looking at is the actual thing, made for Whispers Cafe, not a template with your name dropped in or a quote for something that does not exist yet.

The site is yours to keep. It is was $997 $697 to make it live on your own domain, then $49 a month just keeps it hosted and looked after. Month to month, never a lock-in, and if you ever leave you take the site with you. Most builders are the opposite: stop paying and your site disappears. Not here.
