Moinho - All Day Eatery

In Frankton’s Five Mile, Moinho Cafe introduces Queenstown to an all-day eatery with a twist: the pay-by-weight buffet, a much-loved concept from Brazil and the United States, thoughtfully adapted to New Zealand palates. Here, diners compose their own plates from a rotating line-up of freshly prepared, international dishes. It is flexible, flavour-forward eating that celebrates choice, reduces waste and delivers value, whether the craving strikes at sunrise, midday or after dark.

Breakfast is designed to be flexible, allowing each costumer to build their plate however they like. There are sweet and savory options, a variety of breads, fresh salads, and light or more substantial meals to suit different tastes. For something refreshing, açaí is also available. Choose, mix, and enjoy a start to the day that feels right for you.

By lunch, the buffet broadens to global favourites: vibrant salads, wholesome sides and well-seasoned meats sit alongside abundant vegetarian choices. Dinner softens into a relaxed rhythm, with comforting dishes from near and far served in an easy, welcoming space suited to a swift bite or an unhurried catch-up. Younger diners find familiar pleasures on a dedicated kids’ spread, keeping the whole table smiling.

Come weigh up your cravings and build a plate that suits your appetite, your mood and your moment. Drop into Moinho Cafe and let the day unfold deliciously—breakfast, lunch or dinner, the scales are tipped firmly in your favour.
