Key facts at a glance

The table below captures the core details residents need to distinguish the medical practice from the catering service.

What is Coast to Coast Mangawhai?

Overview of the two main Coast to Coast entities in Mangawhai

Coast to Coast Mangawhai refers to two distinct businesses that share a name but serve completely different needs. One is a medical practice with multiple clinics across Rodney and Lower Northland; the other is a mobile catering and event company based in Mangawhai Heads. The medical side, Coast to Coast Health Care, is a general practice network that provides primary care including GP consultations, accident care, and chronic disease management (Healthpoint clinic services). The catering side, Coast 2 Coast Kitchen, runs a food truck and offers event services such as wedding catering and gear hire (Coast2Coast Events).

How the medical practice and catering service differ

The only link between them is the “Coast to Coast” branding. No public record suggests shared ownership or management. Residents dealing with a medical issue should contact the clinic, while those planning a party should reach out to the catering team. The two operate in completely different industries with no crossover.

The implication: always check which business you are contacting before dialling, since one handles prescriptions and the other handles party platters.

What medical services does Coast to Coast Health Care provide?

General practice and urgent care

Coast to Coast Health Care describes itself as “committed to provide high quality primary care to all people in our region” (Healthpoint practice statement). Services include immunisation, basic accident management, wound care, routine health screening, and chronic care nursing (Healthpoint services list). The Mangawhai clinic is staffed by GPs including Dr Thomas Kelly and Dr Douglas Baird. For after-hours care, patients are directed to White Cross Whangārei – Urgent Care.

List of clinic locations: Mangawhai, Wellsford, Warkworth, Snells Beach, Maungaturoto

The network includes clinics in Mangawhai Heads (4 Fagan Place), along with locations in Wellsford, Warkworth, Snells Beach, and Maungaturoto. Each site offers similar primary care services, though hours may vary. The Maungaturoto clinic is at 138 Hurndall Street, phone 09 431 8576 (Whitepages business listings).

The pattern: the network’s strength is portability of records, but its weakness is the lack of published hours for satellite clinics — call ahead to avoid a wasted trip.

How can I contact Coast to Coast Health Care?

Phone numbers for Mangawhai and other clinics

The Mangawhai clinic can be reached at (09) 431 4128 (Healthpoint phone). Fax: 09 431 4781 (Healthpages medical listings). For other clinics, a central contact may be available through the main Healthpoint profile.

Email address for Coast to Coast Health Care

An email address is not publicly listed on Healthpoint or Healthpages; patients are encouraged to call the clinic directly for contact details.

Online forms and appointment booking

Appointments are booked by phone. The clinic does not appear to offer online booking via a patient portal. Postal inquiries can be sent to PO Box 18, Wellsford 0940 (Healthpages).

The catch: phone-only booking is reliable but can be slow during peak hours, so call early in the day.

What does Coast 2 Coast Kitchen offer?

Menu highlights and pricing

Coast 2 Coast Kitchen operates a food truck serving burgers. Specific menu items and prices are not published on a permanent website but are visible on their Instagram profile. The business is described as “a professional catering team” with a “Coast2Coast food truck available for all day events & festivals” (Coast2Coast Events homepage).

Operating days and times

The kitchen is open Wednesday to Friday from 4 to 8 PM, as indicated on social media. Hours may vary for private events.

Food truck availability

The food truck can be booked for festivals, weddings, and corporate events. The truck is mobile and serves the Mangawhai Heads area.

The implication: the food truck’s limited midweek schedule means you have a narrow window for walk-up service — weekend cravings require event booking.

How can I arrange catering with Coast 2 Coast Events?

Booking process for parties, weddings, and corporate events

Event catering is handled through the website coast2coastevents.co.nz. The business offers mobile catering that comes to your venue, whether it is a backyard party or a large festival.

Event gear hire options (tables, chairs, etc.)

In addition to food, Coast 2 Coast Events rents out event gear such as tables and chairs, making it a one-stop shop for party planners.

Contact methods (Facebook, Instagram, website)

The best way to get a quote is through the website contact form or via their Instagram account @coastcoastkitchen. No phone number is publicly listed for the catering arm.

The catch: without a direct phone line, last-minute event changes require digital communication, so plan ahead.
