WELCOME TO CLEARVIEW ESTATE

2010 NZ BEEF & LAMB AWARD 

2010 RUNNER UP - BEST AMBIENCE & STYLE - Hospitality Awards

The Clearview Estate Winery Restaurant sits among the vines in a well-established coastal setting near Cape Kidnappers.  Specialising in lunch, weddings and functions, the comprehensive seasonal menu features inspired and creative dishes using Hawke's Bay Wine Country produce.

Our Chefs make innovative use of fine local seafood, meat, poultry, dairy and seasonal artisan produce. These are combined with fresh herbs, olives, citrus and avocados from the estate gardens.  Breads and desserts are baked daily on the premises and the superb coffee is locally roasted.

We have long private tables amongst the grapevines for groups, umbrella tables in the courtyard, and a more casual drinks area near the children's playground: a place for you all!

In cooler weather we have a huge log fire with seating for at least 60, and also our enclosed 'pavilion' which is gas heated.
