So dissapointed. The front of house staff, we're exceptional. The kitchen staff complete opposites, not sure if they were on drugs or just inept. 7 of us dined there. There were very few other guests. We ordered two garlic loaves, they arrived 30 minutes later and were still frozen in the middle, we sent them back and they came out still frozen, butter wouldn't melt. An hour and a half later our mains finally arrived, two of us had to leave and take doggy bags as they were heading to Dunedin.
Chips were over cooked, chicken was inedible, nothing nice about the food. I really felt sorry for front of house staff as they did a awesome job. If only the kitchen was half as good

The only cons is my limited stomach that cannot fill
all the tasty food. Highly recommended.

So, the service was really disappointing, the young fella, who had his ear pod in while working, muttering at best, then the young woman, black hair, black clothes and not a smile or pleasnt tone to be heard.
Food wise, its cleverly made menu, where you pick yr meat, then sides so for salad n fries, and then pay for your sauce of choice, it adds up and they make a good profit for a fish n chips meal. All n all, wont buy dinner there again.

Service stinks...take their time as they're more interested in serving who they know before a stranger.

Great place , food was exquisite , top service by all thank you
