Riverstone Kitchen

Wow. We enjoyed the feasting menu with wine match and every dish had beautiful flavours accompanied by a range of delicious fresh produce. It truly was a feast and the wine matches were also perfectly balanced. Our waitress could not have been any more friendly or efficient, this was a total ten dining experience on every level. A very memorable meal and I am so glad we had the opportunity to sample Bevan's fabulous feast and his culinary expertise. It is difficult to say which course was my favourite, but ohh...that salted caramel ice-cream and deep-fried custard...just saying. I would return here in a heartbeat.

Unfortunately the children's menu doesn't really exist nor match the amazing playground they have its very elaborate and children can spend hours on it. Everytime I've been there the only option for a Gluten Free sweet is Orange cake..watery and bland. Coffee good. be prepared for the cold where a jacket

Visited here en route home after a trip to Christchurch. Since opening have always made this a stop on long SH1 journeys. Great coffee, great food and the playground is awesome for kids to burn off steam in. Today it was a coffee, a play and a check up on the castle progress.

Delicious food & friendly staff in a nice location. Bit pricey.

Beautiful food and gift shops, pays to book as they're usually very busy.
