Kindred Road

HASTINGS

There’s a special family connection to the corner site occupied by Kindred Road at Hastings’ most stylish retail complex, Tribune – once the newsroom and printing plant for the Herald Tribune newspaper, two of founder Alice Sip’s great-grandfathers worked here. Kindred Road combines interesting small-run furniture, contemporary homewares and an on-site cafe serving fresh salads and baking alongside locally roasted Hawthorne coffee. The elegant refit features exposed steel beams, painted brick and polished concrete floors. 201 Queen St East, kindredroad.co.nz
