Description: Pipi is all about you the customer we don’t mind if you come in your muddy gumboots or your Gucci stilettos, or if you drink Bollinger with your pizza or house red. We are very lucky in Hawkes Bay to be surrounded by wonderful produce and wine and our menu very much reflects this, where possible everything is local and organic. We don’t take ourselves too seriously but we do take what we do very seriously. Using the best freshest ingredients and cooking them to best bring out their natural flavours. Pipi was born out of my love of my children and food and now 15 years later this has not changed at all and is still at the heart of everything we do.

- Pipi's Bar does pizza and drinks for the locals, so if you're new to Pipi's Bar, read this review like a quick start guide, if you're a local...well you already know why Pipi's is the best pizza joint for families, businesspeople...for anyone.
- Pipi's Bar is a bar in it's own right, but is also a pre-dinner meeting place if you're a group waiting for a table at Pipi's restaurant over the road. You can also order and eat your pizza here and it is delivered to your table in a takeaway cardboard box.
- All pizzas have a thin crust and perfected toppings. Aloha is my simple fav, but Capricciosa also flies out the door.
- Be sure to stop and have a chat with Doug at the Bar - well travelled with plenty of stories. Now wonder he won the hospo award for best barman in 2011.

Went with a group, were seated in the back area, great service and good food. On other occasions have enjoyed a wine and pizza/posie bread before or after the movies. Awesome desserts. They don't take bookings, although you are able to make a group booking in advance.

This is a good place to go for relaxed, casual dining. We had an evening here with many pizza's and bottles of wine amongst a group of about 30.
Only downside was the lady bringing our pizzas, who was not the friendliest. That aside, it was a nice meal, yummy pizza.
