It’s called best cafe and restaurant and they mean it! Food was so fresh and cooked to perfection, delicious! Fresh salad and fish caught that day, all freshly made to order, yet wonderful and prompt service. Super friendly staff and lovey local atmosphere. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Dunedin, even if only here for a few hours, it’s a great lunch option!!!

I picked this place at random to meet with family. Never been here in the past, but the food was amazing. The staff were awesome, checking in occasionally. I'd informed them when I'd arrived to let them know that I had a small group attending soon and they happily accommodated with the limited knowledge that I had. The food was great, and I'd recommend it to my family and close friends if they ever head this way.

We were keen to try some SI blue cod and this cafe did not disappoint. Lovely fresh fish, perfectly battered, and fantastic chips! Very good coleslaw salad as accompaniment. Vinegar and bread and butter a nice touch, reminded me of old school fish and chip restaurants in England. Excellent service. Got the impression some our fellow diners were long term repeat customers,always a good sign. Very convenient central city location and interesting historical information on display as well.

Great authentic seafood. Learnt that it’s one of the longest standing seafood diner in Dunedin. Seafood platter was great as it allowed us to gave multiple menu items a try. Do drop by if you’re in Dunedin!

The look of this place drew us straight in. Reminded us of the old fashioned fish and chips shops in the UK. The food didn't disappoint. The cod and chips were amazing! We were especially impressed with the additional bread and butter and vinegar on the table already! The service was quick, and thoughtful. It was just what we needed on a cool day in July.
