    Great pizzas

    Had dinner here and the pizzas were delicious. Great range of toppings. Service was quick, friendly and good. Nice tables inside and outside- so it works well to eat there.

    On the main road in/out of Kaikoura, easy to park and find. A quirky menu with some ususual dishes but all were devoured! Recommended for pizza fans - you won't be disappointed.
