    My partner and I shared a half scoop of chips (with a ketchup packet for $0.50 extra) and two…read moregurnard fillets. We spent around ~$23. At the time that we ordered, there were 4 different fish that you could choose from. The service was quick and there is a clock behind the order counter that tells you how long your estimated wait time will be (ours was about 30 minutes on a Sunday evening). The fish and chips does not come with any dipping sauces or lemon, but there is extra salt and bottles of malt vinegar on the tables. The chips were well salted and thoroughly cooked and the fish was perfectly breaded and fried (not to soggy or crispy). Everything was very tasty! I would highly recommend stopping here for fish and chips if you're in Mapua.

    Local fish & chips place that everyone loves in Mapua! We usually get whatever they have on daily…read morespecial (depends on the season.) One scoop of chips is $4.90. I've seen other places offer soggy & cold $3/scoop chips but chips from The Smokehouse is definitely worth paying $5! You can take it to go and have it at the wine bar or the brewery at Mapua Wharf. Perfect for a sunny day lunch/dinner. If you're there on a busy day, be aware of the line up and wait time. I've seen people waiting for their food for 40 mins. I suggest you place your order first and then go wander around the wharf! They also sell smoked fish and pate at the counter. Will try the smoked fish next time!

    I am HUGELY remiss in posting a review. Today my daughter called me "remember that place in Nelson…read moreNZ with the smoked manhattan drinks?" Oh yes I do, in fact it was a highlight of places we visited in New Zealand. Inside is a pretty classic setting. Black tablecloths with white butcher paper. Clean, cozy. The first thing we noticed was this very small bar with 6 tiers of shelves hosting all sorts of spirits and alcohol, and the bar tender was ever so gracious. Our table wasn't quite ready but we enjoyed our chat with the bartender and honestly could have waited longer. The menu for drinks and food was immediately appealing. We tried their smoked manhattans. Delicious. They made it at the table and that was just fun. I got their scallops. Fresh, simple goodness. We shared their fries and I rolled my eyes. Great food, service and overall a charming relaxed and gem of a place in Nelson. Highly recommend!

    A delightful setting with great seafood. Ok you hungry travelers tired of mediocre tourist food--…read moretry Cod and Lobster in the town of Nelson. Named after the British Admiral but hey, hi there anyway. Fresh is the name of the game here. You want it, they have it. A beautiful setting. Inside and out. I love it didn't feel touristy. Crazy good bar- see pic-- and great wine list. A lot of great regional pinot noir. Fairly priced for very high quality. I paid around $90 NZ for a hard to get delicious bottle. Try Burnt Cottage if you're into Pinot. Go here. Don't hesitate
