Ever wanted to try your hand at professional coffee making? Or test your skills at creating some glorious coffee art, all without cost? Here's your chance.

Nespresso has opened a pop-up coffee hot-spot with some of Auckland's top baristas serving up complimentary brews to celebrate its latest machine.

From November 11 to 20, between 7am-2pm, coffee lovers can head to Creatista Cafe on Ponsonby Rd for a tasty blend of coffee goodness in a space designed to emulate the comfort of home.

To create a warm and homely environment Nespresso sought the skills of interior stylist and writer Michelle Halford.

"For this unique concept, I wanted to create a living area that would not only fit seamlessly within a cafe environment but also exude the feeling of a stylish, comfortable home", she said.

Nespresso New Zealand Country Manager, John Ciaglia, says the Ponsonby pop-up is an exciting opportunity for Kiwis to experience the revolutionary new machine.

"It's no secret Kiwis love a good flat white and other milk recipe coffees, so we're thrilled to showcase the new Creatista in this unique Ponsonby pop-up environment," Ciaglia said.
