Steamy Sisters is a magical, mystical shopping experience. At the heart of Steamy Sisters is pure steampunk provenance as the building started life as part of Charles Judd's Foundry & Ironworks in 1869. Located in the historic precinct of Grahamstown, it offers a tantalising collection of steampunk finery, curios, oddities, art, handcrafts and gifts.

We visited NZ in 2008 and discovered this place then, even getting our Christmas eve dinner there! We just returned in November, and made a trip up the Coromandel to visit it again. Once again we chose the large sampler tray at $45 NZ, which lasted us for a week of tasty dinner, lunches or snacks! Whitefish, salmon, mussels, and some of the fresh local fish, all superbly smoked and boneless. Buy some good bread and crackers, pick up some of the smoked olives or cheeses they also have, some NZ wine and you'll be in smoky heaven! It's very basic and old fashioned inside, but it's a wonderful place to visit!

Loved the Bread & Butter Gallery and the lady in the gallery was super helpful. We spent hours looking around as it is one of the few galleries I have visited where I wanted to buy something. Ended up buying a painting and three or four other bits. Had to leave before I went broke. Highly recommend.

This is one of the best crystal shops I've found in New Zealand so far. Their range of crystals are amazing! They have any and every crystal you can think of. Although a little expensive, I wouldn't say it's overpriced as many other crystal shops I have found were the same if not more expensive. The staff is helpful and very friendly. I bought 5 beautiful crystals for $20.
