As warm and welcoming as a traditional English carriage house, Alice May is a welcome sight in the popular tourist town of Franz Josef.

Rustling up roast meats, gourmet burgers, salads and fresh seafood, this cosy eatery serves all your favourite New Zealand dishes. With desserts to die for, a kids menu and plenty of gluten-free and veggie options available, there’s something to keep the whole table happy at Alice May!

Decorated with a nostalgic nod to 19th century New Zealand, with white walls, exposed rafters and plenty of historical relics, Alice May provides classic Kiwi cuisine in an atmospheric setting. Don’t forget to ask about the colourful past of their namesake (no spoilers)!

Having worked up an appetite from trekking the glacier, this is the perfect stop for adventurous travellers and road-trippers passing through. Located on Cron Street, just off the main highway.
