Review Off The Track - Hastings

Beautiful food, took quite a while to arrive but worth the wait. Friendly service and cool view of Te Mata Peak.

Nice simple menu. Ambience an location was good. Very attentive staff. Good views and they have a kids play area. Starters were good and the mains were OK. Overall a positive experience and would visit again.

We went here tonight. What a lovely service by the manager and staffs. Good customer service 👍! 5 stars service ! Food are good, just the tartar sauce not really a good one and the linguine is bland (needed to put a lot of salt). Anyway, u have my 5 stars here.

Delicious quality meals. Warm friendly service and beautiful view of the sleeping giant. Kids loved the playground and trampoline. Plenty of room for the kids to run around outside in the fresh air. Would highly recommend.

This place is great for a special occasion, one of the few places now in Hastings, that you can have a large function. The food is delicious and there is something to suit everyone. They have a Vegan & gluten free options. You will need to ask for it though. Great for families and large groups. Friendly staff.

Great spot for a bite to eat and drink. Friendly staff are very welcoming and the food was great. Great spot with lots of room for all kinds of dining. Kids have plenty of room to run around as well as having a playground and trampoline. Great to meet up with friends or have a get together.

The chef who cooked our meal was top shelf. Amazing food and was completely packed. Understandable when the chef cooks amazing meals. 11/10

Wow, amazing place, fabulous staff fit us in & we're very accommodating for one of our groups dietary needs. Food was amazing definitely be back next time we are in town.

Excellent food, great service and a really homely feeling restaurant. Get your folks together and grab a meal here, absolutely worth the while.

Easy parking and nice views. Bit of discussion on where we were 'allowed' to sit initially which could have dampened the situation. I enjoyed my burger but not all members of the party enjoyed their breakfast. Some comments 'hollandaise overpowered it and made it soggy' 'they should not serve commercially prepared hashbrowns' 'the potato waffle was floury as opposed to potatoey'. The coffee was very good- hot, had body, and tasty.

The Staff were very friendly and helpful and the food was very good packed in flavour worth it.

Nice restaurant with impressive amount of veggie and vegan dishes. Able to get a table at short notice on Saturday night not sure that will be the same at level one in the summer. Out side seating with children's play area will make excellent place for late lunch in summer. Staff are friendly and helpful and not pushing for us to have desert or coffee. Menu changes regularly so worth going on the chance you will be able to get something different. I recommend it.

Excellent service. We went for lunch around 11:30am. Even though they were hosting a major gathering we were put in a separate area so we weren't disturbed by the event. Our food and drinks were served in a timely Manner and to a high standard as always. Would definitely go there again. We went again a few months later and once again excellent service and the food was amazing. Even with the new covid restrictions the whole process was smooth and enjoyable.

Great place for kids to run around while the adults talk. Beautiful views which get better as the sun goes down. The staff were all very happy and able to have a good laugh. The menu has been redone and a few favourites are no longer on it but it's still a great menu and great value for money. Kids meals were only $11. And the kids ate everything on the plate. Awesome place. Will visit Gain soon.

Dined here at least twice before. It's good. Definitely worth a try if it's your first time. What really impressed me today was when I asked if I could get a partial refund on some vouchers I bought (because the receiver couldn't use them due to being unwell) they gave me a full refund on the spot! Not everyone is this understanding and generous.

Amazing place, gorgeous views of the beautiful Hawke’s Bay..... food exceptional.... we had Roast Pork, deliciousness....... my husband had the Red Velvet Cheesecake.... so decadent A must place to come....... service is friendly and perfect 10/10

This is the place to go with friends and family for a comfortable place to eat, with space and places for children, adults and all. And a menu which is always fresh, well cooked and can appeal to the various palates and pockets of all of us. I go often.

Great food, great service, great restaurant. Definitely recommend this place to everyone especially group functions

We dined here on Saturday night with 4 adults and 4 children. What an awesome experience! Having a playground and huge area for the kids is perfect! The atmosphere, food and service was great. We were tempted to come back for brekkie, that’s how good the food was! Thanks for making our impromptu visit to my hometown even better!!

Unfortunately I don't have any pictures to share because we were having such a good time here and I forgot to make a few snaps. The views are simply beautiful, the food delicious and the staff extremely friendly. Was here for a breakfast and came back for dinner - exceptional �

Great food. Great staff. The children loved the play area. Would recommend to anyone. Will be coming again.

What a great experience. I stopped here on my way back to Hastings from Havelock North. Although I was alone I was well looked after by the friendly staff, and had a delightful meal of Fiordland venison salad. I'd thoroughly recommend it for an unforgettable time.

Very nice meal, will recommend, staff excellent, great night ! Thank you

We stopped here for a quick lunch with the kids. Stunning view and great setting, the service was faultless and the food great. The kids were entertained for a couple of hours. Thanks for a lovely memory.

Beautiful food, excellent service and the setting was awesome. Definitely would recommend. Brody and Archie were awesome waiters lastnight aswell!

We went here yesterday with friends, the food was fantastic, the kids had a great time with all the other kids there dining playing duck, duck, goose on the tramp, company was a bit common 😂, but staff and service were amazing and really set the tone for the afternoon, best Sunday in a long time, Thanks off the track.

Fantastic, staff went the extra mile when they found out it was my girlfriends birthday, put a candle in her sundae, let party poppers off with us, and kept our classes full. Food was great really tasty and well presented , fast service and hot. Keep up the good work..... will see you again, thanks

Enjoyed a delicious meal with great wine celebrating our 35 th Wedding Anniversary. Thank you for the great service, beautifully cooked food and the chat.

Always top notch service from fantastic staff and really good family food, so much to choose from and always delicious - thanks for another great family celebration Rob and team
