Helen Kelly works seven days a week in her coffee cart, Coffee HQ, in the parking area beside the Taihape Railway Station.
Even though her business is a block back from the town's main street Hautapu St, which streams with both north and southbound through traffic, the aroma and flavour
of her coffee has attracted the customers.
Her customers range from locals and travellers to truckies commuting through who say "my coffee is the best".
"I've got truckies who are travelling up from Christchurch who say they hang outfor a coffee until they get to my place in Taihape.''
All her customers are amazing, she said.
