Cuisine Good Food Guide Selection

Our verdict

Here you’ll find a table with a glorious view of the Waikato River, along with a menu offering serious layers of flavours. This large, busy and popular restaurant in the centre of town offers a full selection of sharing plates, mix-and-match charcuterie and mains. The chargrilled steaks are succulent and the fish of the day is always fresh. And if you’re looking for a late meal, stop in for ‘late night bites’.

Pearl is the En Primeur Club membership app — saves, bookings, and concierge access live there. Same editors, same standards.
