Have been here several times and took overseas visitors for lunch hoping to be able to sit in the closed in, outside area - however the area was set up for a function, so we were seated inside. Admittedly we didn't book, or would have been given this information prior to arriving. It is an awesome location overlooking the beach,... More

Great meal I had the Fillet with blue cheese tart, the flavour in the meat was unreal and so tender. It was to die for. My partner had the salmon she loved it. Will be back again.

Had a very nice lunch at the Boardwalk, the view is great, the service was excellent and the food was very fresh and well presented. This is a great place to go for an Afternoon meal

Went here for lunch with visitors on a great HB day. The lunch menu was great and had choices to cater for everyone. Service was good and food came out in great time. The outside seating at the boardwalk is second to none. Literally 2 meters from the beach. Great place to relax and have good food. Would recommend.

A group of us dined there recently, we had the 3 course special. Good value for money. Right on the beach front, awesome views of Hawkes Bay. Staff always abliging. Another great night.

Service was prompt and attentive with solid coffee from local bay roasters. Breakfast was surprisingly good and best of all the view/location was perfect. Rare to see a cafe in new zealand taking advantage of the sea side location. Recommended.

I've been to Boardwalk a few times now over the last year & have always been greeted promptly & with a smile. The staff have been attentive & well informed of the dishes on the menu & the food has always been up to par. They add the extra touch by providing a dog friendly area to tie up the... More

Service is so important, especially at first impressions. Owner/ manager, it would be a good idea to advise your staff the diners are more important than having a social chat to other staff while the diners wait for their table. Other than that the service was friendly, if amateurish. The location is good but furniture basic. All a bit lower... More

Stunning location, friendly service good food. On a really hot day my grandfather and I went in after a swim to have a glass of Sav.B. the junior staff member didn't really know about the wines when my grandfather asked which of the 3 were good but I recognized a good one, so perhaps a bit more training. But we... More
