Awesome! Biked from Cromwell a do this is a great spot for a refreshment break. Staff are lovely. Good selection of beers, wine, and cider. We only had snacks, warm Olives and some smashed fried potato but these were delicious. Highly recommended!
If you’re reading this - decision made, you have to come here. Especially if you’re a wine and food lover. This was our favorite meal of our two week road trip - Julia also had a large part here with her beyond exceptional service - backed by a flawless crew. Truly, so welcoming and friendly. They do half glasses of wine here so you can pair dishes with the local wine as you work your way through the menu. Absolutely fantastic!
The restaurant has such a great view and the food is amazing!! We really loved the experience and the wine too!
The people are very friendly and made the atmosphere really enjoyable.
Highly recommended!
The food is just Amazing. Full of flavour. Loved every bit of it.
Loved it. Well worth the visit. The food was yummy, and the wine list is nuts, something like 200+ wines, and so many are by the glass even.
There is something about tapas style food that really excites me, and the quality and presentation of each dish was fantastic. I was really glad to have company at the table so that I could taste (and devour) at least the majority of the menu without too much guilt, and left the restaurant feeling very satisfied followed by an overwhelming urge to take a nap.
Each dish was packed full of flavour, unique, and a joy to consume. All topped by excellent service with a smile, I'll definitely be coming back here for my next special occasion. Hopefully in the spring or summer time so that I can soak up the sunshine (and a beer) in the lovely garden.
Many thanks and see you again soon! Jack
A top location and dining experience. Food and service outstanding.
Excellent restaurant based on the Spanish cuisine. Tapas like meals for sharing with a great choice of wines per glass. Very friendly staff contributes to a great night out. Reservations are required (a week in advance)
A short scenic drive from Queenstown, this cosy, buzzing hotel with stunning views has a mouthwatering menu.
We had an excellent server who had great knowledge of the food and wine, and even talked us through the different influences of the micro climates on the wines she helped us choose. The dishes were delicious and perfect for sharing, and she helped us order the perfect amount.
There was a crossover with the Cardrona Distillery on the Sunday we visited which also featured unique cocktail pairings with lunch. A lovely afternoon trip.
Pictured: cocktail, baked camembert, fish tacos, lamb ribs desserts.
Not pictured (too good to pause): chimichurri steak, brussel sprouts, the wine....
I drove quite a long way out of my way to have dinner at the Bannockburn Hotel and I was really glad that I did. The food was delicious, there was a lovely selection of locally produced wines and the service was warm and friendly. It was a very cold evening, and tasting a few Otago wines by the wood stove fire was a great way to spend it. Would come back again, for sure.
