We had a beautiful meal at Arbour. Finesse in the execution, care and respect for the produce with some surprises for the palate. I must say the citrus notes are really good in this 7-course menu.
Desserts are sometimes a hit and miss, but Arbour did a very good job. I will be dreaming of the lime cremeaux in days to come.
The staff was knowledgeable and friendly. We felt very welcomed.

Utterly delightful! Elegant and relaxed settings (and quiet, so you can actually talk and hear!), super friendly and knowledgeable staff, a delightful wine pairing and amazing food. Spectacular special experience.

Absolutely delicious food. My girlfriend and I had "The Many" which is every dish on their seasonal changing menu. My personal favorite was the smoked curd dumplings but there were no bad dishes that left the kitchen.
Definitely would recommend for your next date night.

Such a lovely experience! The food was so unbelievably good, I’ve never had food like it, and the waitresses knew everything about the wine it was very impressive and everyone there was so friendly and welcoming. Will definitely be back.

Can’t complain. Great attention to detail as you would expect from a fine dining restaurant. Waiting staffs are friendly and very knowledgeable about the wine they serve. Dishes are explained clearly. Service is tailored to the need of guests. One of the best dining experience I have ever had.

There’s an intense sense of calmness at this restaurant. The staff spends lots of time with every customer because the meal seating is extremely well organised.
The meals themselves are excellent as is the coffee (big surprise). And one of the owners, Liz, is unassuming but totally in charge.
It’s an outstanding experience. Book well in advance as they’re booked out a lot.

I was part of a group celebrating our friends 60th. We had multiple courses, the food was 1st class. The service was top notch, awesome venue.

Arbour absolutely deserves its five star record. Everything from the food, service and ambience was exquisite. All the food is pretty much gluten free and all dishes can be adjusted. The ingredients are fresh, organic and make for a nourishing experience.
We opted for the tasting menu and each course was amazing. I especially loved the ham hock and prune. The matched wines include a selection of exclusive wines and the staff are very knowledgeable about everything you eat and drink.
A must visit while in Blenheim.

Outstanding food - especially the deserts. Lovely relaxed atmosphere.

It’s a great restaurant. Make sure to call ahead for reservations, they don’t do walk-ins. The food was well worth the price.

Arbour is leading the way by cooking great meals with local produce and putting a much needed spotlight on the amazing bounty of the Marborough region. And they have the dream team combo....Bradley Hornby in the kitchen and Elizabeth Buttimore front of house. If you only eat one meal, eat it at Arbour.
