A
Laurels
The most common answer to ‘So, what’s the most romantic place in town?’, the Laurels works hard to showcase Waipara Valley wines and local produce including lamb and salmon. On cooler nights, beside the open fire is the place to be, while during summer, the action is alfresco in the delightful bricked courtyard.

Green Chilli
Run by a friendly Thai family, the cosy Green Chilli respects requests for ‘spicy please’, and also offers good-value lunch specials. Service – usually by the family’s kids – can be hit and miss, but that’s part of the low-key charm. Takeaways available.
