Crate and Barrel

A much-loved, family run eatery, Crate & Barrel are treating diners to homecooked meals, a warm atmosphere and plenty of great beer!

South Island culinary legend, Craig Bradford is behind the steering wheel at Crate & Barrel. His vision is propelling this magnificent venue forward. Enter a world of farmhouse grandeur, where stags gaze triumphantly over the dining room, open fireplaces light up the space with delicious warmth and sky-high ceilings allow for plenty of room for quirky artwork to be displayed. This is rustic opulence at its finest.

It should come as no surprise that the menu comprises home-cooked goodies with a touch of decadence. If you're joining them for lunch, nothing beats a steak sandwich stacked with caramelised onions and mustard mayonnaise or the vegetable filo that fills you up just the right amount. If you're feeling extra peckish, try the roast of the day or aromatic pacific curry... the food coma is worth it.

For dinner, the burgers really come into play. From fried Hoki patties to ribeye steak and spicy buttermilk chicken, there's some brioche brilliance for everyone. Even the kids get their own menu! To finish, nothing says hearty family supper like a chocolate gateau or pie of the day to share... or not. That's totally your call.
