Enjoyed a wonderful meal with our family. The team were extremely capable, food was simply delightful. Quality of ingredients was second to none and the preparation was fabulous. I love a good steak, unfortunately many restaurants simply don't deliver, they either cannot cook it as ordered or the produce quality is lacking. As a result I often avoid ordering it. On this occasion the steak was truly amazing. The seafood was fresh and flavoursome.My only recommendation would be to turn the TV off as it distracts from the dining experience. Otherwise I wholeheartedly recommend. Hi Monikakoia,Thank you very much for sharing your experience at Escape to Picton, we are glad you enjoyed your meal and we will take your advise.Hope to see you again :)Cheers,Lucia

So many close on a Sunday afternoon but not this little gem.We sat outside in the sun munching of delicious chicken burgers and one of the tapas that they made into a main meal for me at a reasonable price.I had the fish curry and it was to die for so pick that as a tapa or ask nicely like me as not sure why you wouldnât make it a main.Price wise itâs a little up there but it was all very good and the service above and beyond.Even the coffee was good and the cranberry juice a good size.Strongly recommend!

My husband and I both enjoyed a lovely brunch at Le Cafe the other morning, we both had bacon and eggs on toast (choice of how you wanted your eggs cooked) and a mocha each(it would have been good if the coffees came out the the food instead of after). The cafe sits right across the road from the sea front - it was a crisp morning but we chose to sit outside in the sun - it was a glorious day & we soon got quite hot in the sun and even had to take our jackets off. This cafe serves, meals, all types of cold/hot and alcoholic beverages. Wonderful memories - recommended :)

5. Shai Shaiâs Takeaways
Reviewed By Patrick H
Arrived off the ferry at the end of the day looking for a quick meal. Found Shia Shia s on google and ended up following a number of people into the shop. My favourite fish was sold out so settled on Tarakihi and a mussel fritter. When they arrived I found either one would have sufficed.The fish while fresh and firm was upstaged by the fritter. It was full of flavour and mussel meat. Service was very firendly and pretty quick despite being very busy.
