Bays Curry Cottage

Village special

28 Rimu Street
Rona Bay, Eastbourne
Wellington 6008
New Zealand
+64 4 562 0102

This plain jane serves up spicy specialities to the locals from its central location in the Eastbourne Village. Great for an inexpensive early evening meal following the long walk to Pencarrow Heads or Butterfly Creek.

Blue Penguin Cafe

Colourful creatures 12 Main Road
Days Bay
Wellington 6008
New Zealand
+64 4 562 7673 For a satisfying day out take the Westpactrust Ferry to Days Bay. The sea air will stimulate your appetite, which can be satisfied at this friendly cafe near the pier. You can not miss the big colourful penguin wall painting inviting you in, or, sit outside when the weather is kind. Serves all day lunches such as Warm Chicken and Apricot Salad or a Ploughmans Platter and brunch. Children's meals and a wonderful array of ice creams such as White Chocolate and Raspberry for sunny summer days are also available.

Bombay Cafe

Purple paradise in Petone Corner of Queen & Jackson Streets
Petone
Wellington 6008
New Zealand
+64 4 568 5226 This restaurant consistently dishes up delightful subcontinental favourites. The colourful decor--purple walls, decorated lampshades, Indian material-draped ceilings - sets the scene for an interesting night out with friends or family. Chicken, lamb and beef dishes are the order of the day though there are also vegetarian specials and the essential tandoori breads and curry condiments. Indian Kingfisher beer is available or try a Gisborne Gewurztraminer as an ideal accompaniment. Special three-course meals available Monday to Thursday.

Bubbles Bistro

Coastal wonder 50 Amohia Street
Paraparaumu
Wellington 6010
New Zealand
+64 4 298 3181 This popular bistro offers memorable cuisine and spectacular sunsets. The eatery has won numerous local awards including, Best Value For Money. The seafood dishes are particularly fresh and mouth watering. Warm yellow walls, with seascape paintings and decoration continue the coastal theme. Seafood predominates though traditional meals, for example Seared Spiced Pork Belly with Noodles and Seasoned Greens are also offered. A good range of Australian and New Zealand wine complement the meals.

Esplanade Seafood Bar & Cafe

Fish, fish the family dish 79 The Esplanade
Petone
Wellington 6008
New Zealand
+64 4 939 9888 On the Petone foreshore, just 10 minutes or so from the central city, this restaurant is worth a visit if you are looking for a taste of life in the outer suburbs. Situated upstairs, it has a great view across the harbour. The sea theme is maintained in the decor. Fresh fish meals form the backbone of the menu. The Fish Fillet is always a good choice. It will be served as you like it - battered, crumbed, baked, Cajun style or grilled. Popular with locals and families. Licensed.

Rangoon Cafe

Genuine Burmese 192 Jackson Street
Petone
Wellington 6008
New Zealand
+64 4 568 7941 This specialist, that claims to be New Zealand's only Burmese restaurant, dishes up genuine Burmese-style curries. It is worth a trip to suburban Petone for something a little offbeat. Meals are served in the small and simple dining room decorated with artworks in the Asian tradition. A variety of curry dishes are offered at reasonable prices for lunch or dinner. The restaurant highly recommends its Parata - simply the best, most tasty and crispy bread around. There is a special lunch menu. Not licensed.
