Nice to have a full house at Crafted Meeples tonight!
A big thank you to everyone who came along and helped make it another fantastic evening of gaming, good company, and great coffee. It’s awesome to see these nights continuing to grow. 😊
My own game of Dark Gothic was less successful… the forces of darkness (Peter) won. 😅
If you’d like to join us, Crafted Meeples runs every second Tuesday from 6pm at Crafted Coffee Company.

The vines may be quieter through winter… but the mystery is still unsolved at French Peak Vineyard and Accommodation. The prized grape harvest has vanished and Kumara the cat is proving to be an extremely unreliable witness.
“Who Stole the Grapes?” is a family-friendly puzzle adventure where you’ll explore a certified organic vineyard, solve five unique puzzles, and uncover clues hidden amongst the vines overlooking Akaroa Harbour.
Crack the case and win your choice of a bottle of award-winning wine or a New Zealand-designed game.
✔ Family-friendly outdoor experience
✔ Award-winning wines and scenery
✔ Flexible difficulty for all ages
✔ Ideal for a winter day trip or picnic adventure
$35 for groups of 2–3
$45 for groups of 4–5
Please note this is an add-on experience and requires a wine tasting booking.
