My wife and I really enjoy our experience here. First off, the food was wonderful! It was fresh and flavourful, and the wine was well balanced and full of depth and complexity. Our server was sweet and knowledgeable about good food and wine pairings. Secondly, the garden and sculptures that the winery is a part of is peaceful, and well maintained. The sculpture walk didn't take all day, but the walk through the garden and forest was breath taking, and the sculptures were interesting to look at. All in all, we really enjoyed our afternoon here and would highly recommend it to anyone.
The place is fantastic, the food delicious and the staff very professional, warm and attentive. The sculpture tour was perfect after lunch, very quiet, orderly and safe, perfect for all types of public and the speakers across the route with nature sounds and songs give it a magical touch.
The manager gave us a complete explanation of all the products manufactured in the place and we decided to buy some of them!
Thanks to the entire restaurant team for a wonderful Saturday of celebrations!
Nice area for a nature walk or a romantic date. Seating is both indoor and outdoor. Went for something simple and the sculptures around the area were very unique. Would definitely visit again.
We a lovely school holiday adventure. The sculptures were interesting and creative. The trail made a beautiful nature walks aswell. The activity that was available for the kids was fun and actually got them to look at and read about the sculptures. We discovered though that some of the sculptures that we were told would be able to find were not on the trail. They were back in the car park and one last one wasn't found. The kids weren't happy about that but it was still a fun experience. Also really wish it was advertised somewhere that the trail wasn't suitable for prams.
Another exceptional day at one of the best places in New Zealand to come for delicious food, great wine and a spellbinding art trail. The art trail is the absolute standout and very affordable at $12 or $10 if you've eaten at the winery. We loved everything about the experience and probably drop in once a year. Brick Bay is about 45 minutes from Auckland.
Great place on a sunny day , very good cafe food with local products, with 1half to 2hr walk with good native canopy cover from the Sun
It is located in a stunning natural location, and you can book a table either inside or outside.
From the restaurant's inside, you can enjoy a wonderful view of a lotus pond and some sculptures arranged in a large section.
With your dining reservation, you can also get a pass for the sculpture trail walk if you want to explore their beautiful trail.
The meal comes with a lovely presentation and a good flavour.
Had an amazing lunch here for our wedding anniversary! The beef cheeks are so fantastic - just fall apart when touched. Add in the pickles and goat cheese and every mouthful is amazing. The fries were incredible too! Our desserts were so yum, apple gelato sundae and coconut panna cotta both had such a great mix of textures and flavours. Have visited multiple times and enjoy the food every time plus love that you can taste a variety of wines on the tasting paddles. Thanks for a great lunch!
Truly wonderful place. The sculpture walk indeed takes around an hour and is $12, or $10 if you do the wine tasting (which is very reasonably priced at $10 for 3 glasses of wine including olive oil and honey btw). The sculptures are unique and nicely integrated with nature. They also use music as an additional medium.
The setting for wine tasting is very charming and the food in the restaurant looked great. They also have sheep on the property 🤍 You could easily spend half of day exploring this place.
After the sculpture trail, we had lunch it was a great, nice environment. nice weather, just perfect.
