There are two dart boards of you are into that and big X O's so you can play a game. Ordered snapper and chips... Was divine. Their portion servings for wine were brilliant!!!

All were great. Khan Bros and the oyster platter were standouts--both were inventive and tasty. Service was friendly and attentive (though we came on a slow Monday night so I don't know how it gets when busy). You'll have to wade through pictures on here to find the menu in case you want to take a peep beforehand as the menu on their site seems to be out of date.

It was after the first time trying this restaurant in the morning that it quickly became a ritual. The food is great, freshly made, good service and a view to fit anyone's morning of the bay.

Absolutely amazing. Stunning view. I give this 5 stars in respect to Northland cafes and…read morerestaurants. If you are driving up north you should stop here for sure. Coffee is EXCELLENT. I am particularly fussy about my coffee and this rivals some of the best I've tried across the globe; London,nyc,USA and Europe. Has the French toast "Frenchie" and my husband had some sort of breakfast with beans. We ended up getting another flat white takeaway as it was that good. They have gluten free options. Cake, etc, pies, hot dogs... A wide selection but all done very well. Highly recommend.

They also had fresh Hoki and Tarakihi available that day - they post the catch of the day on the wall. Clearly a shop that knows and takes pride in its fish. Very friendly and fast, and they do a brisk local business because they are good, but also it's one of the few lunch stops with fresh fast food along the northern highway so a good stop on the way to or from the beaches. They will also cook your own fish if you like!

I had not been in New Zealand since 2022 and was looking forward to fresh fish. The fish, although fresh, was a bit greasy for my liking. The scallops were fantastic and the king prawn was "okay". The venue was fantastic as it sat over the water overlooking the beautiful harbour. The staff were certainly warm and friendly. The price, however, at $72 was a lot higher than I thought it should have been. Maybe influenced by the tourist market but a bit excessive.
