Review Raupo Cafe, Restaurant & Traiteur - Blenheim

Lovely attentive staff & very fast service. Extra hot flat white was a bit hotter & my mocha was great. Lots of froth which I like and accompanied by a small biscuit which was a nice addition. Gorgeous view out to the river & beautifully decorated venue with plenty of indoor & outdoor seating options as well as water bowls for dogs.

Excellent atmosphere & staff members with beautiful service! We ate out there on their 15th anniversary. We are new to the area and walked in during hours where they serve specific food. We were hoping for dinner food and they were able to treat us lamb shanks as a special favour during our visit. We were so grateful! Food was beautiful! I love the fries! Just want to especially thank Rameshwar for his wonderful service. Thank you and will visit again 💕

Delicious food and lovely, lovely staff. We enjoyed our dinner at this place. We had one night stay in Blenheim, and we found this restaurant located in the heart of the city and with accessible parking. The food is great and you have a lot of options and also the prices are very fair. We highly recommend 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🤤🍻🤩

We had a light lunch here on a rainy winter day. Parking was surprisingly difficult despite there being several spaces outside and we ended up with a bit of a wet walk. Of course when we left there were several empty spaces! This restaurant is spacious with plenty of room and seems a place for friends to meet, based on our visit. Our meals were good, particularly the pate and the service was prompt.

I took Mum here for breakfast yesterday before we went back to Christchurch. You are the FIRST cafe/barista who has passed my Mum's expectations on how an Americano should look and taste. She had TWO! I started with an Almond Hot Chocolate and then finished with an Almond Mocha (was mistakenly given Almond Hot Chocolate again until I told the waiter that I clearly asked for Almond Mocha). That Almond Mocha was DEVINE!!! I demolished my breakfast. Service was A+++. Beautiful view and atmosphere to go with it. Hopefully I did not get charged for the 2nd cup of Almond Hot Chocolate that I did not request as that would be very disappointing. I should have asked for a receipt. Mum would happily travel 4hrs to your Cafe just for her Americano. THANK YOU!!! 🥰😊

Hadn't booked for 10am coffee. They seemed to make a big thing over that ruining the enjoyment of catching up with friends. Gone by 11.30 and still empty tables with reserved signs on them. Think it could have been handled better. $2.50 surcharge for card.

Our first time at Raupo. Service, views, cleanliness all lovely. Food looked and tasted amazing and was perfectly paced between courses. They asked for vaccine passes. Dogs allowed outside which was lovely for us, but may not be for others.

Beautiful environment, waitress was very polite and very knowledgeable about the menu. There was not a long wait to be served and recieve our order. We had to book a table online as it was one of the few restaurants open during the Christmas season in Blenheim

We came here for dinner and had ribeye steak. The meat was of good quality and well grilled to our expectation. The salad tastes like it‘s not self-made which is a bit a minus. But the service is lovely and kind and the location itself next to the river is beautiful. They are open 7 days a week, also on a public holiday.

Was driving around Blenhiem looking for somewhere to have late lunch and spotted it along road.. it was an awesome place to top for a meal and hot drinks. Will be stopping there again..

Had my team breakfast at Raupo. Staff were very friendly and made sure we were well taken care of. Food was delicious!

Lovely atmosphere, friendly happy staff. I had the mussel dish.The mussels were moist soft and tasty the sauce had not been reduced to the correct consistency instead it was runny bland cream and disappointing therefore i give the entire meal a 7/10. My husband enjoyed the omelette with the surprise tantalising delights throughout. He gives the meal 8/10. Meal and drink prices are reasonable. Give this place a try.

We thoroughly enjoyed being at Raupo. The service staff were very welcoming and efficient and our food was delicious. We ordered a variety and each one of us was more than happy with the quality and presentation of our meals. Thank you.

Lovely place. Attentive service. They were willing to offer anything on the menu without dairy. Our party had risotto, egg Benedict(At 2pm), pasta, waffles, creme brûlée, hot chocolate. Ooh what decadence; feeling a bit guilty now. Everyone left content! Easy payment at the counter. Recommended.
