Review Wither Hills Restaurant - Blenheim

Great spot. Excellent coffee. Had cheeseboard and the cheesecake and chips on the side. Good service and amazing location. Beautiful buildings and epic wines. A must visit spot for brunch or a meal in Blenheim. Make sure you hit them up!!

A beautiful tasting space with a cellar and a Chef's table underneath. The team is very friendly and knowledgeable, and made me feel really welcome. One to recommend!

We had a wonderful lunch and experience here. The staff was very friendly and our meals were impeccable. Scrumptious wines and affordable prices. Beautiful surrounds and lovely event area. Highly recommend eating here over other highly ranked facilities as the experience was every bit as good and the staff friendlier. Kudos all around.

What a gorgeous winery! Absolutely worth visiting for the views alone - make sure you go all the way to the top of the main stairs for an incredible viewpoint over the area. We had the set menu for lunch, and really enjoyed all of it. The carrots with olives and raisins particularly stood out (and I say that as someone who generally doesn't love carrots). Everyone working here was really kind and warm, and gave us really helpful advice on where to go while we're in the area. Overall a lovely experience, and I hope to get back to actually try the wines!

Wow. This was an amazing experience. We had a wine tasting and the sommelier was great and helpful in giving many insights into the wine we were tasting. He even added one more red wine to the initial list when we told him this was what I prefered! Wines were lovely and we ended up buying a bottle of one of the wine Chardonnay (white, 2020) . We really loved the place and decided to stick around for lunch as well. We took the shared menu at 60pp and that was delicious. Plenty enough for two, we were full before the desert (still, those were so delicious we still hate them). In the end that was a lovely experience and would 100% recommend the place for a wine tasting or even lunch if you have spare time (the garden is great when it's sunny outside). Thanks for having us!

A delightful place for lunch or to buy a few bottles of your favorite wines. The food was quite good. The service was excellent. The building and grounds are very attractive and relaxing. The mixed case of white wines is an incredible value, by the way. Check it out.

Probably one of the best meals we’ve eaten in over a year, everything was well cooked and tasty! Highly recommend

Thank you Lucy and your team for excellent service on Saturday at my birthday lunch. You were amazing. Everything ran so smoothly. And chef, the delicious dishes were delightful. Everyone agreed. Congrats. Of course the best maitre/d Stephanie, was ever present. Thank you all.

Such an amazing place!! We arrived without booking and the staff friendly helped us to find a table on the beautiful restaurant. We decided to try the sharing menu for 2 and it was the best idea. The entrees were amazing with glazed couliflower popcorn and grilled eggplant perfect in any way, mains were great size for sharing, juicy hanger steak, garlicky potatos, salad and dukkah couliflower "AMAZING", and to finish 2 nice desserts in perfect balance with all the food. The wine was on point, and I bought one bottle on the same premises. Afterwards they invited us to check the terrace to with the amazing views overlooking the vineyards as well as checking the downstairs wine cellar. I'll be back for sure.

Wine tasting is $5 per head. You get to try 3 wines of your choice. Although they waive the charge if you buy a bottle. Sophie is a wine connoisseur!! She explained each wine to us in detail; also has a very bubbly personality. She didn't sound like a trainee at all! The oysters were good too. Food is bit on the pricey side but you get to enjoy a lovely atmosphere and views.

Opens everyday from 11:30am - 3pm for lunch. You can enjoy a wide range of wine. We went there for lunch. The menu has a small selection but our dish was delicious. There is ample parking beside the main building. We were treated by a staff who checked our Covid vaccine pass. We would choose our own table. We chose to sit outside... The weather was beautiful and you could see the vineyards but you need to stand to see them. You can go to the tower and see the vineyard. Wish they had some sits up stairs so we can see the vineyards. Down the stairs there is basement where wine is kept in barrels. I do not know if wine is still in them or it is just for decorating the place. However, you can view it for free. Lunch is expected to be expensive at such places. Portion was less for me. There is a wide range of wine selection. You can also hire the venue for special functions ... Staff was very friendly.

We had the most amazing time at Wither Hills Winery. Stunning day, gorgeous wine and amazing platter. And the Brown Sugar Pavlova is devine. Would highly recommend a visit if you're in Marlborough

Loved it. What a beautiful place. The wine was superb and the talented staff made it a whole experience. The best place I've been so far in NZ with one of the best wines I've ever had.

In March 2023 the New Zealand Land Treatment Collective held our conference dinner at Wither Hills. The service, food and wine were exceptional. We would highly recommend this venue for other conferences or large groups.

Fell in love with the setting and wines. Decided to stay for lunch and plan our wedding here - and what an amazing wedding venue it was! Brilliant setting, staff, wine, and food. A Blenheim treasure. (Edit 6 years later: We come back every year and it's always a treat. Thank you again!)

What a beautiful lunch we had here today. The flavours were amazing and complimented perfectly, and the wines were lovely to go with the meal too. Would definitely love to come back the next time we’re around the area!

A wonderful celebration lunch in beautiful surroundings. I don't normally rave about cauliflower but the crumbed cauli was delish:) The whole set menu was perfect. The nicest lunch we have had in a long while. The Frivoli Bianca we drank with it lived up to our waiter's recommendation. Thankyou.
