The Maurya’s Cafe & Restaurant

In Invercargill, The Maurya’s Cafe & Restaurant brings classic Italian flavours into conversation with the bold spice of Indian and Chinese kitchens. Guided by the belief that a meal is an experience, the team cooks with quality ingredients and a playful, worldly touch, serving plates that feel both comforting and new. It is an international perspective, distilled for Southland, and something refreshingly different on the local dining scene.

The menu roams with confidence: thin-crust margherita sits happily alongside a butter chicken pizza; creamy alfredo pasta gives way to a lively arrabbiata; and Indo-Chinese favourites like paneer chilli bring heat and crunch. There are fresh salads and warming soups, nibbles such as funghi alla pesto, and easygoing rolls and wraps, all matched with mocktails, smoothies, and well-made tea and coffee.

The mood is generous and unhurried, with an ambience that encourages sharing and enjoyment, whether with family or friends. It is the kind of place where creamy, basil-bright, and chilli-tinged flavours trade places across the table, inviting a little curiosity in every bite.

Gather your favourites, choose a corner, and let your appetite travel. Book a table, bring an open mind, and take your taste buds on holiday for the night.
