Drinks pictured: Oat iced maple ($7), hot chocolate and flat white.
The second coffee stop in Wellington was at Swimsuit Coffee on Dixon Street. They use Coffee Supreme beans here. I had an Oat Iced Maple (which is an oat milk iced latte with maple syrup) and I liked it so much that I am still thinking about it! They have both indoor and outdoor seating and I really liked their dark blue exterior.

"Do not give me that look."
Red peeks over the kitchen island. "But Boreasssss-"
Boreas shakes his head. "Absolutely not. I sincerely apologize, but i cannot allow you to continue with this."
Red shoots him his best puppy-dog eyes. Boreas tightens the Look of Disappointment™️ on his face, though his fingers tremble ever so slightly. "I said no, Lantern, and that is final. It is for your own health."
Red climbs onto the kitchen island and slides over it so he's standing in front of Boreas. "Pleeeeaaaassse? I need it for cryptid hunting."
"You cannot go cryptid hunting tonight, it is a school night," Boreas counters, though there's a faint hitch to his voice. "I'm sorry, Red, but for the sake of your health and grades-"
His boyfriend leans into him, peering up with wide amber eyes and a faint pout. "But tonight's a great night for hunting Mothman... the moon is full and everything..."
The slight tremble to Boreas' fingers increases as he turns his head to the side, avoiding looking at Red. "I'm sorry. Please do not give me that look, this is for your own good."
"Okay..."
Red's quiet voice makes Boreas pause, and the tall nindroid makes the mistake of looking back down at his boyfriend.
His power source melts.
"Perhaps..." he starts, voice cracking. "Perhaps I can brew you an alternative mix. The "Potion of Could Kill the FSM", as you call that dreadful mix of caffeine, sugar, and 5-hour energy, is very bad for your health and I cannot in good mind allow you to drink it, especially at such an unreasonable hour. But perhaps... perhaps I can instead brew you some nice hot chocolate, and we could curl up with a movie together?"
Red looks at him as if he just offered him a plate of gold. "Cuddling? You and me?"
His face slowly goes red with a blush, and a few embers flicker in his gelled hair.
Aha. Boreas has him hooked now.
"Yes," he says. "Perhaps we can share a blanket? You could rest in my lap as well."
Red starts to bounce in joy. "Screw Mothman, I'm finding us the coziest blanket in the house-"
Boreas smiles. "That would be lovely, Lantern."
Red beams back. "Anything for you, Snowball!"
The coffee is poured down the drain as Red races out of the room, and Boreas chuckles to himself.
He really is in love with this bi disaster, isn't he.
Week 2 at my new role as in-house designer. Designer you say? No, a photographer as well!

Drinks pictured: Oat iced latte ($7) and hot chocolate ($5).
Was in Wellington for the long weekend and tried 4 coffee places there. I'll go backwards starting with our final stop, which was Evil Twins Coffee. They use beans from L'Affare with a special roast for their cafe. It looks like a small cafe when you first go in but there is a lot of seating in the attached bigger room. I had an oat iced latte and I really like the cup that my partner's hot chocolate was served in!
