“ Visited this place for lunch on 12 June 2025. The food was enjoyable. The lasagne tasted good, but the portion was quite small compared to the accompanying salad. ”
“ Great dining experience in Kaikoura. We ordered goat pizza and creamy fettuccine. They are so good. Thank you so much for the good meal. 2 of us can't finish that much and the a takeaway box is provided. Sweet. ”

“ EPIC pizzas in a gorgeous building. We arrived late into Kaikōura and this place was closest to our accommodation. ZERO regrets….the food was amazing, the service was great, and I’m sad we’re not in town long enough to go back for more!!! We had two pizzas - The Farmhouse (apricot chicken) and Shrek & Dolly (lamb and pumpkin with mint sauce). They were INCREDIBLE!!! ”
“ What an awesome meal ! Two burger combos and a cod were ordered and they were all delicious! The cod was fresh from the seafood market store across the road and the burgers were awesome. The guy that served us this afternoon was also great and it was a friendly atmosphere. Their dessert cabinet looked yum too. ”
“ We have tried two of their pizzas, one pasta and a carrot cake and enjoyed it. I was bit apprehensive of wedges on pizza but it was surprisingly good. For my Indian palate, it needed salt and it was so delicious after adding a bit of salt. Great vegetarian options plus lovely service. Would recommend this place. ”
