    Fat Pipi Take-away Pizzas - whitebait pizza

    Definitely an acquired taste, whitebait pizza is an unique flavor that many might like but we were…read morenot blown away by. First we realized the restaurant closes at 9PM on most days... and thought that was early until a quick Yelp search shows that most places don't even open past 6PM in Hokitika. Given the lack of options, I'm not surprised that this is a default eatery for most. We had to pick whitebait because that seems to be what all the other reviews point toward. It wasn't disappointing. Having the tiny eyes from the white fish staring at you isn't exactly appetizing. Ultimately, it just wasn't flavorful. The lemon helps. The capers help. It's a white pizza. We kind of wish we got a red sauce pizza instead. I would've given it a 3 star but who wants to go to a 3 star restaurant? What am I saying, you don't have a choice. Nothing else is open. Just come and enjoy it and don't think too hard about it!

    Ok yelpers let's be mature about this.. Fat Pipi was good but it wasn't as good as all the hype led…read moreme to believe. I was traveling around the entire south island with some friends and Hokitika was our first stop. When you come to Hokitika this place is on everyone's go to list. They are famous for a white bait pizza but it wasn't available the night we went. We ordered a half/half Mariner(seafood) and T-Rex(meat lovers with bbq sauce) and as well a veggie pizza. They put meat on our veggie pizza so we had to send it back and have it remade. Some of you might think seafood pizza sounds weird but it's actually really good! Mariner is a must try if you go! Prices are for sure high but it does match the quality of the pizza. Medium $22 Large $28 Half/Half $32 This was my first time trying Fat Pipi and I did enjoy it. I'm just not sure I would make a trip back if I ever went back to NZ. One Fat Pipi is enough for me! There's a really nice sunset spot in Hokitika right behind this restaurant so you can stop there first and eat pizza after. Or eat it with the sunset. But I was there in the winter and it was a bit too cold for that. 4 stars. Staff is a little edgy, the pizza was good not great. Try if you're around but don't go out of your way for it.

    A beautiful setting, world-class view and tasty (but limited) menu. We had fish and chips and…read moremussels, both of which were excellent and very fresh. Their wood fired pizzas looked great as well. Friendly service, and a really cool tavern-y vibe. In existence since the 1890s!

    Ahhhh the old hilltop tavern, delicious food very scrumptious and the prices are high yet somewhat…read morereasonable, however the cleanliness and presentation of this tavern is poor. Ok not mad just disappointed, it's not hard to remove the dead flies from the windowsill or make the rubbish and dust out of the dunny. For a restaurant in such a prime location with a monopoly on the market for the area you would expect better. The hilltop is very rough around the edges and it would be great to see someone with a little motivation and passion for the restaurant to come in and clean it up. My last bone to pick with the hilltop is that is is never open when I wish to dine on some delicious wood fired pizza or warm chocolate brownie (and I'm not talking about the young gentleman behind the counter), I frequently drive past in my 1997 Corolla and it always disappoints me to see that the doors are closed and the chairs are up during what one could only assume would be peak hours. Me and the hubby love to discuss all of the hilltops faults but overall if you're a little bit bogan like myself then these things don't bother ya so much! And the hilltops an alright place
