The WorkShop

I really LOVE visiting here, and often only have 15-20mins to park, grab my coffee and go. Unfortunately today, I had to circle the block 3 times because a Camper van was taking up all their car parks When I FINALLY got in, the lovely staff seemed to be getting harassed by someone (who I later learnt was the caravan driver) Im so sad to see theyve been left an UNFAIR and dishonest review, these women are always accommodating and give their all

This homeware store is incredible, beautiful homewares and really good coffee and cakes The women who work there are welcoming and helpful and I went home with fabulous ideas on how to transform my bedroom. Wow , such an asset for Gisborne. Parking is limited but make the effort to visit

I didnt shop in their store but the 2 woman who work here are ugly people inside. I parked my camper van on the free public parking street which happened to be outside their shop while my partner went to the gym at Anytime Fitness. I didnt feel like going so I stayed in the van, organised the space inside, did the breakfast dishes with my door half closed (two bowls, two cups and cutlery which took me all of 5minutes in the first moments I parked there). After 45minutes to 1 hour one of the woman knocks on my door, does not ask but declares that I should park somewhere else on the street. I think to myself - But what is the difference from me parking here and another park. Its all the same. When I move another person will park there and sure enough, a blue Subaru parks where I was and the man goes to the gym. So for them it was personal towards me, for no other reason than they didnt want to see me there. After I moved my van I went to their shop and asked why it was so important to them that I move? And they both aggressively stated that it was no place for me to park, the gym has designated parking (I agree, but I cannot fit my ford transit in the small carpark of the the gym facilities when it is full), our customers dont want to watch you do your dishes, you cant freedom camp here, that I am taking up customer parking, that they OWN the street parks and proceeded to say they do not give a s*** about what I need. I realised there is no chance of having an adult conversation with woman who lie for their own pleasure about owning public street carparks, cannot comprehend the difference of freedom camping vs parking on a street and speak to another human being like they deserve no respect. You two woman are a terrible example of decent humans. Do better.
