Spring/Summer Lodge Dinners

Our Lodge Dinners are very popular with our guests (see our reviews on TripAdvisor). We also featured recently in this article of the very best food & accommodation experiences to be had in this region. 

We select the very best seasonal produce to showcase our Lodge's, and New Zealand's, fabulous food & wine.

Canapés of the Day are served in the guest lounge, or outside in the gorgeous Lodge gardens,

with your choice of a fine NZ wine or a locally brewed craft beer.

The Main Course will be one of the following, based on best available produce and any special dietary needs: 

 Bluff Salmon, hot-smoked with a Whisky & Manuka Marinade

Locally-grown Beef Eye Fillet with Cafe de Paris Butter

Perfectly grilled Hawkes' Bay Lamb Rump served with a Red Wine Jus

A Vegetarian Moussaka with a Basil & Macadamia Pesto delights our vegetarian/vegan guests.

The main course is accompanied by duck fat-roasted Agria Potatoes or Kumara Mash, with a fresh seasonal salad or vegetable side dish.

A NZ wine to suit the dish, or your palate, will be served.

Our homemade Desserts are a real highlight for many.

One of the following will be served:

Lodge-grown Rhubarb Tarts w Orange-Scented Cream 

Individual Pavlova w fresh fruit & Whipped Cream

Dark Chocolate Torte (GF/DF/RSF) w Coconut Yoghurt

Lodge-grown Rhubarb & Apple Crumble w Vanilla Ice Cream/Pouring Cream

A NZ dessert wine (sticky!) will be served.

Angie's delicious hand-made Chocolate Liqueur Truffles or Petit Fours to finish.
