The staff at this dockside fresh fish and gourmet food outlet pride themselves on quality, freshness and service. When they say fresh battered fish – they mean fresh off the boats, into their own special batter, and then into your take-out pack or gourmet burgers. Think ciabatta buns, deli-style relishes and all the gourmet trimmings at a reasonable price. Over the summer months you can pull up a chair at the picnic table outside and enjoy watching the boats come in, or pick up their goodies and head down to the beach. For those keen to create their own gourmet delicacies, Real Fresh has all sorts of fresh fish and seafood available. If you truly believe fresh is best then a call by Real Fresh and Off the Hook should be on your ‘must do’ list.

Known for its focus on excellent service, great atmosphere and a top spot for the whole family, the 80-seat operation will be the 20th Lone Star in New Zealand.

Perfect for an after work drink, snacks with mates, a romantic dinner for two or celebrating with the family... there’s a spot for them all at Lone Star.

It’s the perfect spot to catch up with old mates, share a platter and bottle of wine, but just as much fun to watch the sun go down over a beautiful working wharf with historic Poverty Bay as a backdrop.
