Pipi
Shockingly pink with candy stripes and mismatched furniture, Pipi cheekily thumbs its nose at small-town conventionality. The food focus is on simple pasta dishes and Roman-style thin-crusted pizza.

A
Opera Kitchen
This modern and stylish cafe has an interesting menu including healthy brekkie options, such as strawberries with passionfruit-curd yoghurt. For the less calorie conscious the full breakfast is a real winner, too. Heavenly counter food, great coffee and friendly staff round things out nicely. Eat in or outside in the suntrap courtyard.

Terrôir at Craggy Range
A surprisingly rustic dining room, housed in the cathedral-like ‘wine barrel’ of the Craggy complex, provides one of the region’s most consistent fine-dining experiences. The views of Te Mata peak from the terrace are almost as impressive as the wine list.

Te Awa
The raw-wood-beamed conservatory looking onto the vines is a wonderful locale for a lazy lunch, as is the pretty garden. The menu is packed with fresh, seasonal flavour (lovely salads), chocolate fondant and cheese, which you’d do well to match up with Te Awa’s ‘wine flight’ ($20).
