Loading Ramp

It was really good.
Food and service were very nice.
We ate steak, pizza, salad and beer.
All of them were delicious.
I hope to go here again.

Amazing food and service loved it will go back

Nestled in a cozy corner, we were well cared for all evening and enjoyed our dumplings, burgers and desserts. We left well satisfied after three hours of good food and conversation. Mauri ora!

We enjoyed our night. Staff were amazing.

Awesome! This place has the most amazing atmosphere! Great food and great service. Highly recommend!

Great atmosphere and vibes. Food was delicious and service was very attentive. Will definitely be going again.

Excellent atmosphere, and the food was very delicious. My wife and I enjoy it very much.

We have a lovely meal at the Loading Ramp. Service was great and also speedy considering they were very busy. Thank you Loading Ramp.

We had a fantastic experience at the Loading Ramp. They fussed over us as though we were their most important customers even though they were very busy. We have already recommended them and First Table to many people. We look forward to dining there again. 5 star+

Really great service. Food was yum! Especially the loaded wedges.

Great evening! Staff were very friendly & nice, food was great but the dessert was selected & not to our taste.... overall great evening

Great service as always, thanks

Girls night out dinner and honestly I didn't have high expectations since I have been to the loading ramp quite a few times, but only to drink.

I was however super impressed with the menu, food and service. Our server was attentive and patient, and the food came out quickly, which was all delicious. The feijoa dessert was amazing! Thank you for a great night. Will definitely be back to eat again.

Bit confusing on arrival who should be looking after us and when ordering our drinks not the happiest of staff member. Waitress service started well but then took too long to take away our dinner plates and we went and got our own dessert menus and ordered at the bar! then no apology for us having to do this.
Food was great compliments to the chef.

This was our first visit to The Loading Ramp and it won't be our last. The food was really good, we loved the outside dining area and most importantly the service was great - Thank you Loading Ramp :)

What incredible food!!! Hubby and I ordered the steak and the gnocchi and we each loved our meals. Food came in a timely manner and service was polite and friendly. Also recommend the beer battered fries - yum! Would definitely come back again.

Had a lovely intimate dinner date with my husband and friends, the staff service was excellent and the food was delicious. I would definitely dine there again.

Can’t fault it, everything was amazing!

Was our first time at The Loading Ramp and we will definitely be back! Our lovely host was Jasmine and honestly she made our night. Food was yum, The fejoa and pear sorbet and cheesecake was just divine!
Our table was nicely tucked away but we could still feel the warmth from the amazing fireplace.
Was very enjoyable night.

Great night out with the family for my birthday. The food was flavorful and big portions which was good considering I have two boys. They have a great central fire which is great on a raining cold day.

Very enjoyable meal at Loading Ramp. Staff were friendly, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable about the menu taking time to answer our questions. Food was excellent.Recommended.

Lovely dining experience with my family. Super cosy and warm on a chilly night. Great food

The staff were great. Very accommodating and the perfect level of attentive without disturbing. The food was delicious and portions were generous.

Amazing food with so much flavour. My husband was very happy with the portion sizes as he hates going out to a restaurant and then needing to call into Macdonalds on the way home. I hate going to bulk food places with no flavour so the Loading Ramp suited us both. Friendly staff and nice having the fires. We will be back.

Nice warm atmosphere, table was ready even when we were 25 minutes late. Food excellent portion sizes. No room for desert! Service was fantastic even with a minimal number of staff. Great

Arrived on a busy Friday night.
Table was waiting for us and had great service and a wonderful meal.
Would recommend to anyone AAA+++

Was a good night out with family from all over. Good food, atmosphere, service and company

Very good food and lots of it. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent service; fantastic food! We were made to feel special - particularly the 9-year-old birthday boy who received a free dessert complete with candle! My 11 year-old daughter had the smoked salmon and mussels and said it was the best thing she had ever eaten! I really enjoyed the prawn dumplings and pulled pork taco and the kids' father demolished his chicken burger. Very happy diners indeed :)

First time dinning here.the food was delis and the service were lovely

Everything was fabulous , from start to finish. The staff were great and food portion sizes exceeded expectations. The fish and chips were excellent - crunchy well-cooked batter and beautiful chips. The chicken/bacon pizza was excellent, with lots of toppings and really cheesy. Staff had no problem with me taking the balance of pizza home. Unfortunately we were pushed for time, so couldn't stay for dessert, but we will definitely go back another time.
The menu was diverse and very accommodating for both hungry teenagers and more refined diners. Thanks!

Thank you Loading Ramp for a lovely meal. The steaks were cooked to perfection and was enjoyed by all. The service was great too. Will be visiting you again.

Lovely food!! Great starters and mains. Couldn't fit dessert. Excellent service and ambience. Thank you.

Thanks, great food and great service .
Excellent as always

Great service and yummy food.

Thank Loading Ramp for a lovely meal last night. The food was delicious and the service was great. Thank you.

We had a great time! The server was polite and very helpful, the food was wonderful, although the chef may want to hold off salting the bacon fat potatoes as they were a bit overpowering, but I recommend that everyone at least get a serving of the beer batter shoe string fries!

We all enjoyed our meals at the Loafing Ramp. The steak was cooked as requested and the rest of the meals were delicious. The meals are pretty large too. The service was great. Thank you Loading Ramp for a lovely night.

we had a lovely meal, and the service was fantastic!

It was a great experience the staff were very good food was great.When you walked in the staff had a smile on there face making you feel relaxed & welcome.

the food has really improved since i was last here (back then it was still amazing!!), with the change in menu I find the bar foods more exciting - you never really know what you're going to get. the tacos and pork buns were a wow for me! to top it off you could never go wrong with the coffee cocktail!

Huge portions and awesome service.

What a beautiful setting. We sat outside under the lean-too. It was warm but raining. The rain set the atmosphere! Venue could comfortably accommodate you no matter what the weather is, inside or out. Comfortable seating. Spacious and not claustrophobic. Generous portions of food! I couldn't finish my main nor could my hubby!... and we still attempted dessert regardless of the over-extended bellies, eeeek! Quality of the food was superb! The grilled prawns... I could have a double dose of that and been quite satisfied! Everything was amazing. Extra wow-factor with the detailed birds nest dessert! Very clever. Last but not least - our amazing waitress was friendly and patient as she came back a number of times to see if we were ready to order. Overall - ticks all the boxes. Thanks so much for the awesome service and food! :)

Great afternoon spent in the sunshine, fantastic service, great food, back again soon!☺

Great selection of small plates, finishing of with dessert. The server was very good at explaining the choices on the menu.

Excellent service, lovely friend staff who were very accommodating and helpful. Meals were of decent size, great price for sizes. Food was a little bland. Other then that great night

For entree the BBQ Prawns as well as the garlic flat bread were amazing! The Prawn avocado and tomato salad was quite basic and the avocado was blended too much into the dish.

For main the steak and the fish and chips were a great quality and the portion sizes were big which we liked.

The restaurant was more of a pub style and as we were there on a Saturday night it was quite noisy however, it was good that the restaurant portion was separated from the rest of the pub we can see that Loading Ramp have done their best to keep this separate.

Only negative was that there was no oysters but this showed on the menu online. When we asked the waitress she informed us that they had not been able to get any oysters in for the last month so they had to take them off the menu which we can understand but were disappointed as this was the reason we chose this restaurant.

The service we had was fantastic and definitely a highlight of the night!

Overall we had a great night and would come back when returning to Hawke's Bay!

Wonderful experience,yum food,excellent service will do it again

Great food, great service (our waitress gave us excellent service)........ nice place to bring our friends from England.

Great food and atmosphere. Friendly helpful staff
