You couldn't call this a restaurant, we went there on our first night , it's a short walk,and it used to be good ,we have been to raro 10 times now.the meal was absolute rubbish my wife had the worst nachos in the world. We went back on bbq night,the food was disgusting ,oily vegetables, dry and tough meat,and not cheap ,nothing good. The previous owners were good.Kia Orana,Thank you for your review.It is really hurtful and disheartening when we get a review like this as we try so hard to give our guests the best possible experience. Fortunately reviews like this are very rare.You are correct, we are not a restaurant, we are a small beach bar and occasionally we drop the ball, so we are very sorry that you didn't enjoy your time at the Shipwreck Hut.It was a real shame that you didn't say anything at the time.Kia manuia,Steve, Geraldine and the A Team.

This bar used to be a favourite when it was called "Whatever". We were a little disappointed last October when it opened as "On the Rocks" to find that they weren't serving food.But on our visit earlier this month we were delighted to find they were again open for lunch and dinner.As with the previous owners the food was simple, affordable and served with a smile.
