Did you say 2021 prices? ๐ Throwback time!
ย
Does anyone actually remember what the prices were back then? Based on our staff and James Williamson, absolutely nobody has a clue. Most of the team seems to think weโre talking about 1999, even though they werenโt even born yet. ๐
ย
Come and join us for a little nostalgia drive from Tuesday to Friday next week as we bring back some of your all-time favourites from the Nathan Homestead days:
Pastรฉis de Nata
Afghan cookies
The Hill House Waka
ย
๐ณ And, after years of requests, our number-one seller is making a comeback: the legendary Carbonara Omelette. Yes, you heard that correctly.
ย
But the biggest news of all...
๐จ The OG Sin In A Bun is back at its original price: $6.90.
Yes, the bun that started it all. The bun that built friendships, relationships and probably added a few kilos to half of Auckland. Back to $6.90 for 4 days only.
ย
And because one throwback wasnโt enough...
๐ง Our legendary cheese scone is going back to $5.90.
Honestly, seeing those prices in 2026 feels illegal.
ย
โ And thanks to our legends at Flight Coffee and Green Valley, coffee prices are going back to 2021 prices too.
ย
All the besties are back for one week only. Nostalgia is free, but our accountant is already sweating.
ย
See you next week. โค๏ธ
