A basic touristy lunch spot in the middle of Queenstown city center. When it's a nice day, you can sit on the patio and do a little people watching. The lunch menu and beer options are slightly limited, so take a look online before walking over. The food is fair; good quality ingredients, but slight execution errors that prevent you from enjoying. The mussels were good, with the white wine and garlic broth being excellent. The haloumi salad was okay, but nothing to rave about. The chips were greasy and not flavorful. There are several better options for lunch, so it's probably not worth going here unless you really like the look of any items on the menu. read more

The Coalfire restaurant that I experienced was upstairs from the bar, and it was a high-end casual steak place that served very good food. The standout to me was the amazing fries with paprika. The restaurant was a bit fancier than I expected -- white tablecloths, soft music, a wealth of utensils, and such -- with the prices to match. (The bar downstairs looked like a more casual feeling spot that had excellent live music. We followed the signs to the restaurant, however, and chose to stay once we were upstairs.) The staff was friendly, but the pacing (and catching their attention when needed) seemed slow to me. read more

Surprisingly delicious bbq. We had the sampler platter for 2 plenty of food for 3 adults and a child for lunch. Chicken and brisket and mac and cheese were standouts read more

This was a very disappointing dining experience. We ordered pork ribs, chicken burger, pulled pork and mash for 3 people. Pork ribs had not been cooked for long enough and were tough and chewy with a lot of fat. Chicken burger was ok, very saucy and sloppy. Pulled pork and mash were so, so bland. Food lacked flavour and seasoning. We were looking forward to trying this restaurant but we won't be back. read more
