This is in the same courtyard as Piku Restaurant. We had a lovely meal here with family one evening. It was raining but we had an outside table and we got great service. Our daughter Meg enjoys eating here.

Napier City has spent a lot of money developing the gardens and recreation areas along the Marine Parade. Worth a walk and visit. The view from Bluff Hill out to Mahia and south to Cape Kidnappers is worth the visit. And let us not forget the walk around the Art Deco buildings. Some great restaurants and cafes. Museum is worth a visit with a good exhibition on the 1932 earthquake.
