Te Whau
Perched on the end of Te Whau peninsula, this winery restaurant has exceptional views, food and service, and one of the finest wine lists you’ll see in the country (1982 Chateau Mouton Rothschild, $3000). Try its impressive Bordeaux blends, merlot and rosé for $3 per taste (11am to 5pm).

Cable Bay Vineyards
Impressive uber-modern architecture, sculpture and beautiful views set the scene for this acclaimed restaurant. The food is sublime but the service isn’t always. If the budget won’t stretch to a meal, stop in for a wine tasting ($5) or a drink on the terrace.

Mudbrick
Auckland and the gulf are at their glistening best when viewed from Mudbrick’s picturesque veranda. The adventurous menu is crammed with quality ingredients, well put together. This venue also offers tours and wine tasting ($5 to $10, 11am to 5pm).

Thymes Tables
Fussy eaters should look elsewhere as this excellent French-style eatery offers only one or two dishes per evening, which change daily. The food is as elegant as the white-walled dining room, and the island’s best deli is downstairs.

Stefano’s
Stefano’s is the best-smelling joint on Waiheke, serving pasta staples and wonderful pizzas in the presence of a dodgy mural. It also does takeaways.
