Ahipao - Matiatia New Zealand

Breakfast while we wait for our winery tour. We got the Ahipao big breakfast and the value for money and quality was exceptional. I don't know how the make the bacon both crunchy and buttery but it is AMAZING. Also the atmosphere was incredible inside and we were fortunate enough to have a sunny day so we could enjoy the view outside. The service was fast dinning before 9am.

Had several great experiences here. A lovely spot to go for tea and cake. The strawberry tea is out of this world and the brownies are beautifully fudgy. Probably wouldn’t recommend the banana chocolate muffin. Ours tasted like baking soda and seemed like the banana was just chopped up inside instead of being mashed in?? But other than that, a fantastic café with great staff. Will have to come back and try the famous donuts!

Absolutely amazing! Best dinner experience I’ve in ages! Food was colourful and delicious with a wide array of options. I came for dinner and ate a meal with the most gorgeous view of Matiatia bay. Lovely staff, great music, 10/10.

Loved this place. Great view. Great food n fast friendly service! The Southern Fried chicken n chips was the best chicken n chips I've ever had! It was crispy. tender and very tasty! Be back for more next trip. Thank-you Ahipao.

Great for large groups! I had my post wedding brunch here and I couldn’t recommend it enough. We had about 90 people attend at different times. Ahipao was pretty much the only place on the island that would allow us to rock up without having to put a minimum spend or our credit card down. The entire team worked tirelessly to bring the food out even though they were understaffed. The front of the cafe is amazing with bean bags and benches to sit on. Plenty of room for kids to run around. The food and drinks were great including a fully stocked bar for those needing a **** Mary!
