East Pier is home to a relaxed beachfront brasserie style restaurant

Pop in any time of the day and soak up the relaxed smooth atmosphere, discreet service, beautifully prepared food or a wine from our expertly designed wine list which offers a magnificent array of Hawkes Bay, NZ wide and overseas labels to suit any palate.

Seven days a week our chefs slice, sauté, grill and baste their way onto the palates of happy diners.

The same great food, wine, drinks and service is offered on our stunning all weather decks which can accommodate up to 100 people. This is an ideal location for your alfresco brunch, lunch or dinner whatever the time of year.

Both the brasserie and all decks offer the same totally uninterrupted 180 degree panoramic vistas of the coastline and ocean. Ideal for families as the kids can go out and play on the beach away from any roads and always in your sight.
