The Verdict
Where do we even start? If you haven’t heard of this absolute gem, then your world is about to get a whole lot better. As you walk up the cobblestone path to the gorgeous white weatherboard cottage that is Mora Wines & Artisan Kitchen (formerly Akarua), you’ll feel instantly at home. This well-loved and well-known Central Otago winery not only has a boutique cellar door on-site where you can sample their latest and greatest award-winning wines, but it serves up absolutely delicious food from 9 am - 5 pm daily. Whether you’re after a destination breakfast venue (one of the best around in our opinion) or a long-lunch location, this is the spot.
The courtyard is perfect year-round, transforming into a winter wonderland in the cooler months with a stunning translucent marquee, outdoor heaters and plenty of blankets to keep you snug and warm. For breakfast, you can’t go wrong with the seared halloumi with dukkah and poached eggs or the waffles with brulée banana and honeycomb butter—we can assure you it’s as tasty as it sounds. The lunch menu is designed to share with beautiful cuts of meat like the fall-off-the-bone Central Otago lamb shoulder, fresh seafood like the Mt Cook alpine salmon and so many delicious starters and sides. It’s such a beautifully unique location that we suggest grabbing your friends and making a whole day of it, and just in case you need any more convincing they do an epic magnum of rosé.

Blue
When Roses Dining Room closed earlier this year, the hospitality and wider community were shook. But it wasn’t long until they announced there was another venture in the works—and along came Blue.
Mensa
Found on the ground floor of the Beca building, all-day eatery, Mensa is the perfect spot to soak up that glorious sunshine, ideally with a coffee and slice of freshly baked sourdough pizza in hand.
