They offered some nice vegetarian pizza options with appealing local ingredients, and I managed to be in Nelson on the day of the week (Wednesday) when they were offering a two for one special, so I tried both the ones I wanted. They were good enough that I felt bad about how I struggled to reheat the leftovers in my limited accomodation the next day. Especially one that offered sundried tomato and feta; tomato and cheese on top of tomato and cheese seems redundant, but it's quite good. I also reveled in my cheap pizza by trying a fancy sparkling grape juice thing, which was quite tasty and a good vacation-y sort of way to top off the evening for the non-drinker. They had very nice service, and despite it being a vacation town, it seemed like a lot of the customers were regulars and there was a decided neighborhood vibe going on. None of which was bad; I'd certainly recommend it as a stop for anyone visiting the area.

Many tables were sat and had ordered after us but got their food before us - same dishes that we ordered. Some of those tables even finished their meals before ours arrived. After 45 minutes, we asked about our food and then they all magically turned up. The table next to us confirmed with the server that the fish of the day was frozen and not caught that day. The steak we order was tough and so was the lamb. Lastly, the floor of my seat was littered with food. They just sat us at a dirty table. I recommend the Indian restaurant down the street instead.

We actually visited the original brewery which is located down the street from this more…read morefamily-friendly pizzeria satellite location. The brewery 'taqueria' down the street has more of a taproom vibe. Owners are originally from Colorado, USA, therefore the setup is quite reminiscent of a typical American taproom. There were a ton of beers on tap, West Coast and Hazy IPA's occupying about 75% of the tap board, pushing into the the 6.0 ABV territory. We had a few tasters, namely their fresh hops for that moment in time -- 'Hop Project '26', a hazy with hops sourced from Mac Hops and a Pils with Clayton Hops. I loved this Hop Project Hazy with middle of the road ABV, making for a pleasant afternoon sipper. Motueka and Riwaka from Mac Hops were tasting brilliant and bright, pillowy and smooth. Great ambiance inside with the wicked hop shaped lamps hung over head. If you're looking for an easy-to-drink, prickly, and aromatic IPA, Eddyline will be sure to please your palate quite readily.

The poor staff was cracking to the best of their ability and they were all really friendly and accommodating. The food was great! We got the spinach artichoke dip to start and it was super creamy. We each ordered a pizza, but one of the pizzas was a special order and the kitchen staff called it a "Frankenstein" pizza. We ordered a Hawaiian, but asked for no pineapple and to add Brie cheese. We also asked to switch the marinara sauce for the garlic sauce. So it was definitely one of a kind and delicious! We didn't really partake of their beers, but I had a cider and it was lovely. We had a wonderful time here

What a refreshing rustic restaurant and fresh food market located in Motueka. Loved the natural,…read morerustic, and open restaurant area located just past the doors upon entering the food market, its expansive floor plan rotating between different indoor and outdoor areas. They are family-owned and operated, the love and attention put into the natural, wooded space quite apparent. Menu items are sourced locally so they are as fresh as possible. I had the Lamb Burger with their "world famous" slow roasted lamb patty, topped with a fresh picked salad, mint jelly, and tomato salsa. The lamb burger patty was actually shredded meat -- rather than minced -- and packed into a puck. It was a little tough to tear the meat, a fork coming in handy to eventually deconstruct the burger. The salad portion was extraordinary as well, requiring the use of the fork to pick away at it before crafting the burger/ sandwich. Overall though, it was ultra yummy, scrumptious burger, the mint jelly combo enhancing the enjoyability greatly. It left me feeling satiated though not overly bloated. The freshness was prominent indeed. Beers were flowing and while they claim to host a keg of nearby Hop Federation, the single offering was somewhat basic (a pilsener). I actually opted for a local Pinot Noir, a lovely pairing with the Lamb Burger. The TOAD Hall is an easy option while in Motueka and Tasman area!

Just barely topping(pun intended) Little Caesars who sits at number 2. I'm joking... Little Caesars is terrible. The only reason I eat Little Caesars pizza is because it's hot and ready, $5 and I'm too hungry to wait for Pizza Hut after work. Best pizza ever is extremely high praise, and it's located in a small-ish town at the top of the South Island of New Zealand. It's called dangerous kitchen and I felt dangerous going inside. It was empty, on a weekend! But me and my friends filled the place up. I tried 5 different types of pizzas and I'm convinced there isn't a bad one on the menu! Our selections in order of likeability: smoked salmon, seafood, margherita, dangerous, and henny penny. You can see the menu for details of what's inside. I took a bite of that salmon pizza, I wanted to cry. But I was at a table full of my friends so I had to stay strong. It was like I was tasting food again for the first time. Perfectly baked. Topping ratio was perfect. This pizza was so good on my way back to home me and the friends riding in my car stopped again to take 2 pizzas home LOL. Dangerous kitchen huh?? This pizza must have drugs in it. I'm addicted. If it wasn't an hour and a half drive I would go every weekend! They do more than just pizza, such as brunch items and a small lunch/dinner menu but c'mon.. You go here to eat pizza! They have a bar and live music at night, fun little vibe. Staff is super friendly, they saved a table for us while the pizza cooked so we could walk around main street. Parking on the street. You can call ahead for takeout. Love this place!! I've only given 6 stars a few times but this is that place.

On our drive back to Christchurch we stopped here after many recommendations from travel books…read more Morrison Street Cafe is a low-key, simply decorated cafe that caters more to the stomach than the eyes. Touted as more of a locals spot, there is a community board on the wall and the artwork on the wall is often for sale. When there is a gap in available artwork and the walls are bare, the space can get particularly loud, especially with young children and groups of people dining. The service is still pretty efficient despite the crowds. We had a trim flat white, an Americano, the eggs Benedict with local bacon and the salted caramel & strawberry pancakes. The eggs benedict was spot on perfection with an incredible light but well-prepared hollandaise to top. The eggs were cooked just right and the bacon had a slight crisp to the edges. The eggs Benedict came heaped with spinach and chives which added a great flavor and added touch of healthiness on top of the soft bagel the Benedict was served on. Needless to say, the plate was licked clean. The pancakes were made with a wholemeal batter and were extremely fluffy. The pancakes were topped with fresh strawberries and a rhubarb compote that was bright, tart and totally complemented the salted caramel sauce that was served in lieu of syrup. If you've never had pancakes with caramel sauce, you must try it here. I had my dish served with yoghurt but cream is also an option. The prices are reasonable and the service is quick and friendly. If you're stopping in Nelson, you absolutely must find your way over to Morrison Street Cafe.
