the espresso here is the thing to anchor your visit around, pulled with the kind of consistency that keeps people coming back to cambridge terrace on a tuesday morning for no other reason than that. vivace sits in the city centre, which means you're close enough to everything but the pace inside doesn't feel like it. regulars don't show up because there's nowhere else to go. they show up because this one got something right and kept it right. the lungo, if that's your speed, holds up without turning bitter, and the flat white does what a flat white in new zealand should. not a place to overthink. just order, sit, and let cambridge terrace do its thing outside the window.
