“Absolutely the best Japanese restaurant and a real asset for Kaipoi. First time diners and food was magnificent and cooked with precision ,humor and flavors are to die for. Will definitely be back.”

“Great place to meet your friends, really nice atmosphere & Janet is a gem”

“I have now visited this restaurant twice with my husband and both times, food and service has been excellent. The Platter dishes are extremely tasty. Don't rely on google maps to locate Spice Village - for some reason it directs you behind the restaurant. The restaurant is on High Street. Great restaurant and highly recommend”

“Coffee was really great with satisfying blend and aroma. I liked the latte art design in my flat white that was simply adorable! The brownie cake was good though not really impressed with its lightness and airy-moist texture and it would be better if whipped cream was applied on the side. Cosy atmosphere with a touch of minimalists plant collections, loved it! Great customer service and friendly staffs. I will surely comeback.”

“Great selection of sushi and top tier customer service. It really does live up to its name ‘wow sushi’, highly recommend!”

“5 +++ I use to eat here everyday before I moved to Aussie, I am coming back to NZ in December so guess where I will be going back. Great food options, great taste, and great customer service. Food is fresh and delicious.”

“I would like to order a chicken bowl please. Service is amazing I will take care of this sweet hearted sushi lady when she gets old. I will ensure that she gets everything she wants. I would die for this sushi shop AMAZING FOOD AMAZING QUALITY! I hate subway Silverdale very bad food compare to this. I remember having a whiff of the sushi sent me straight to Japan. The food here give me a bittersweet sense of nostalgia.”

“Fantastic local brewery with awesome beer, staff and atmosphere. Best of all they are dog welcoming. Treats and all. In dog we trust.”

“Great little posse with great coffee and wicked food. Passing thru? or local to the area deffs stop by to check it out ☺️”

“We thought the coffee was great. So was the service. The owners were friendly, efficient and pleasant. And pet friendly! They had a well behaved, small dog and a charming cat keeping them company. Learning nearby. We will choose this cafe again as our Whatawhata stopping place on a drive from Auckland to home.”

“We really enjoy this coffee. Our favourite is the Columbia single origin. We have a recurring subscription order which works really well. Great prompt service from Phoebe Rose.”

“Me and my girlfriend went to this place and did the bloodstone keep and it was personally the most high quality escape room I have ever been too. We felt very integrated into the story, the puzzle were meaning full and very interactive. The props were amazing. Hints were good and the staff was truly amazing (there was even a puppy while we were waiting which was so cool!!) The staff really added to the story of the rooms (getting into character which I found really cool and funny from sitting at a table nearby.) By far one of my top experiences with reasonable difficulty to do with people. Would recommend highly and 100% worth the price. We only planned to go once on our 2 week trip but with our experience today we will be making a second trip”

“Ordered my product yesterday and it arrived today. Great range of products. Fast, friendly service. They price matched our product and we got bonus items. Couldn't be happier with the speed of delivery and service. Highly recommend. Thanks”

“Excellent Lahm Bi Ajeen. Wonderful flavors. Highly recommended!”

“We are coming up to our 1 year wedding anniversary on December 9th, and I am looking back at photos from our special day. I’d like to say a huge thank you to Florist Ilene for our beautiful bridesmaids and bridal bouquets. The flowers were gorgeous and wonderfully put together. I have also had my bridal bouquet preserved in resin by Haley at Clearly Preserved. Marie was also very lovely and professional during throughout the process. If you are looking for bridal flowers, I highly recommend Florist Ilene ❤️”

“We were treated to a beautiful authentic French four course dinner last week and it was simply superb! We often visit for lunch, and every time we are greeted with wonderful service and even better food - this dinner was something extra special though! Merry Christmas and we'll see you again soon!”

“The only thing bad about Raglan Boat Charters is that eventually it'll end and you'll have to go home - and that will be a sad time. Raglan Boat Charters is a great experience. The staff are amazing, friendly, informative, helpful, will bend over backwards to help you out or get you on a tour. We did the sunset tour on a perfect night and it was a blast. In a truly Kiwi experince, Fish and Chips were delivered before we left - the perfect entree to what was to come. We took a tikitour around the Raglan harbour where the sights were enjoyed and the history of the harbour explained. Birdlife was plentiful, as were the stingray! The Captain gave us a few of his secret fishing spots - but you have to do the tour if you want to find out more about that. As we cruised around, a wicked soundtrack of sing-along party hits played and created a really fun atmosphere. The cruise was more than 90 minutes - incredible value for money and an experience you'll be wanting to repeat quickly! 10 stars.”

“What a hidden gem in a lovely lane! Loving the taste, 1/3 of sugar is sweet enough and the milk is actually rich enough in the milk tea in comparison to other shops, music is great too! The traditional milk tea (from Taiwan) is like the one I had in Taiwan! The owner is an awesome person and the pearls (tapioca pearls) are freshly made too, which is rare!!!”

“Always awesome. As a couple we would visit Bootleg at least monthly and each visit is just a great experience. The venue is comfy, rustic, an excellent example of giving life into an old building. The staff go out of their way to welcome us and free tastings are part of the experience. I am not an avid craft beer drinker, but there are so many other options, cider/sours/ lagers...the rhubarb cider when on tap is amazing. Thanks Bootleg team”

“Every time I come back to NZ I try to find a great Bacon and Egg pie, well I have found the best pies in New Zealand, tasty, big pie, full to the brim with Bacon and Egg, the Chips were amazing, wonderful food will be definitely back”
