We had the Friday night dinner which was excellent. Entree, main and dessert was delicious. I had raw fish, perfectly cooked steak and the baked cheesecake. Everyone enjoyed their meal and the service was friendly and prompt. I would highly recommend Peak House Restaurant.

Wow Thank you Thank you Thank you. What an attahua experience. 1st time being here and believe me it won't be the last. From the most beautiful location with breathtaking views in the bay to the service and then the unbelievable kai just absolutely amazing. We were there today to celebrate Matariki and honestly what a way to celebrate.
The food was absolutely to die for so yummy and delicious. Service incredible even when there was only 2people serving. We offered to help but you managed to serve at least 50+ of us so well done guys.
I'm definitely bringing my darling up for a romantic dinner one night.. The drive up a bit scary but all in all well worth it so Thank you once again.. From an Enliven Support Worker 😊😊

Simply can't fault peak house, Its nice to be remembered by staff. They went all out to make a safe meal for a person with more than one allergy. We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch, the food, the atmosphere and very attentive, kind staff.
Even rearranged furniture for a family photo! Thanks Peak House!!!

We had such a beautiful experience at Peak House Cafe. Even though we arrived right as they were about to close, the staff couldn’t have been more warm, welcoming, and accommodating, they really made us feel so looked after.

The cafe itself has the most stunning views, and such a cosy, inviting feel that makes you want to linger. The cabinet food was absolutely delicious (we wanted to try everything!), and the gorgeous little toy nook was a huge hit with our kids, such a thoughtful touch.

Truly lovely staff, a relaxing atmosphere, and a spot we’ll definitely be coming back to. Highly recommend 🤍
