Hilltop Cafe & Bar

Good hearty pub food. The staff were very friendly and the views here are really amazing. We stop here quite often when we're going to Akaroa for an afternoon as we live in Halswell.

Great view as always, but disappointed by the pizza - chicken was dry and there was no flavour to it. Wedges and chips were good but our friends' order was forgotten about so they waited a long time.

Nachos were good view was fantastic but the place is run down and understaffed, water jug had brown sludge in it, other water wasn't cold, it is a bit of a shame this place could be epic

best view of akaroa
lovely pizzas and good outdoor seating

A lovely pub with amazing views. On a clear day you can see right down into the harbour. A great wee place to stop on way to Akaroa or back to Christchurch. The staff are friendly and there is parking off the main highway outside the pub.
