We were seeking a rustic setting for both wine tasting and a meal and the Clearview Winery and associated Red Shed Restaurant fitted the bill.Although the winery was very busy, there was plenty of parking and we were provided with a tasting opportunity without delay. After selecting our wine for lunch we sat in the lovely courtyard setting for lunchA wide variety of food types was on offer, the food was delicious and the service was both friendly and efficient.Well worth a visit.

Open for lunches 7 days and dinner Wednesday to Saturday, Black Barn Bistro is the perfect place to spend an hour or two absorbing the atmosphere of Wine Country. It is in the heart of the vineyard surrounded by vines and a table on the large generous ver

We had a lovely dinner here. The menu has a good range to suit all preferences. Staff were good, and the service was not rushed. Most of the meals were very enjoyable, the highlights were the red meat dishes, lamb, beef and venison. The fish was average, the pumpkin dumplings were dry. The truffles for dessert are a fab option!

Went on Motherâs Day, which meant it was busy, but not hugely so. From the get go things were poor. Weâd booked by email a week earlier but they had trouble finding our booking in a very poorly organised schedule. We were seated in the dining area that looks like itâs still under construction. We were given menus, but as we learned later they took the all day breakfast off, leaving a limited lunchtime menu only. That was a pity as weâd gone online and had looked forwarded to certain meals. Nothing online told us that the all day breakfast would be cut on Motherâs Day. We ended up ordering the fish & chips, chicken linguine, pumpkin fritters and cheese burger. The food came out quickly. The fritters were beautiful (thankfully, as thatâs what the dual birthday girl/mother ordered!), the linguine and fish and chips were nice, but the burger was very bland, in fact it was simply tasteless. Our service was very average. The waitress was neither friendly nor informative and we had to ask for water for the table. Weâve been here a couple of times but i think this will be our last. Quite simply there are so many better options throughout Hawkeâs Bay offering better food, or setting, or service or mostly all three. Dear RickM638,I am sorry that we did not live up to your expectation on Motherâs Day.We are going through some renovations and had hoped to be a little further on by Motherâs Day. It is a very busy day for hospitality, and we did our best to keep all areas in service. We obviously failed to let you know at the time of your booking that we were only operating a breakfast menu between 8 and 11:30 and a lunch menu from 11:30 until close. For this, please accept our apologies. We do this primarily to ensure all our guests get a speedy service and do not have to wait too long for their food. Please understand that there is a big difference in volume of customers on Motherâs day compared with a normal day, I am please you mentioned the food came out quickly. I also appreciate your feedback regarding your meals. We have recently updated our menu to focus more on buying local and supporting our local Hawkes bay producers. The menu has only been going for 1 week and your feedback is most useful. I will bring your comments regarding the burger up in our management meeting tomorrow. I am pleased you enjoyed the other meals. I too am a fan of the fritters.I hope we can welcome you here again.Johnny
