You HAVE to come here and try this place out!!! Beautiful place to relax and eat a cray which was nicely made. Did not disappoint. There’s a beautiful view there’s also lots of parking and toilet facilities which were well presented and clean, the staff are great. Special thanks to the Cafe for giving us a cray on the house for our trip back to the North Island, we appreciate it so much, such a wonderful surprise for me and my family. You made our day!

A true South experience. We sat inside today, cold wind, admiring the view and enjoying half a crayfish each with chips and salad. Matched with a cup of tea. Mmmmm … a must do stop. The service was friendly and efficient. Thank you!
