Seems like a good time to come in and get one for yourself.

Fancy a free potato kofta? Same.

So, we’ve decided to hide a few around Takapuna and Ponsonby.

If you find one, it’s yours. Send us a pic or video if you’re the lucky one, we’d love to see it!

We’d appreciate it if everyone kept this relatively civil.

Your Potato kofta tab must be redeemed in-store by EOD today. One per person, with 10 available per store.

A WINTER SPECIAL 🖤

We’re pretty excited about The Cookie... and thought you could do with a little something extra too.

From 24–30 August, add The Cookie to your Fatima’s fix for just $5 (usually $7.00).

We’d say that’s a pretty sweet deal... in more ways than one.
Available for a limited time, at all Fatima’s stores.

Not to be dramatic... but this might be the hottest thing you’ll see all day.

And the only thing better than watching it? Eating it.
Don’t wait... consider this your sign.

You can also order this beautiful South Island lamb shoulder from our mates at Neat Meat .
