Smash Palace
Bar
👍👍 Great eclectic decor. Guy opened early for us, lit large log fire, turned on pretty lights. Can be opened up to outdoors. Only there for one drink so don't know how it does, but I'd go there again, for sure.

FIANCE RESTAURANT
Indian restaurant
👍👍 This is a great little gem. Chicken pops shared by 4 was just right. We ordered the butter chicken, tandoori chicken salad, chicken biriyani and the seafood biriyani. Plus mango lassi drinks. The flavours were gorgeous in each dish. Not overpowering in any instance. Lovely service, and lovely drink...

Tatapouri Fishing Club Gisborne Harbour
Restaurant
😠 This should not be listed on Google as though it is a public restaurant. It is a members-only club. We turned up as tourists, on a Monday, when most good Gisborne restaurants are closed, it turns out, and were refused service. We were mis-directed by the staff to another restaurant that turned out t...

Gisborne Botanical Gardens
Park
👍 Good sized botanic park. Some of the trees could do with a bit of pruning as they obstruct the path but nothing major. I like the bird cage in the middle and the playground for the kids.

Sofra Turkish Cafe
Kebab shop
👍👍 Sofra meals are fresh, delicious and beautifully presented. The segment of pita given with my order was a perfect way to compliment the generous potions of fresh local lamb.

Thai Sunshine Restaurant
Thai restaurant
👍👍 The most delicious and authentic Thai foods during our trip, a hidden gem in Gisborne that amazed us with their Tamarind fish dish and sizzling Black pepper beef (Well Done to the Chef).
The lovely lady that served us was friendly and very accommodate.

Aberdeen Fish Shop
Fish and chips takeaway
👍👍 First time trying Aberdeen fish and chips, I highly recommend. The fish is what you want, fresh tarakihi in a crispy but light batter. The chips were lovely, also ordered a hamburger that came with some decent salad including beetroot! Delicious and so we will come back one more time before we retur...

The food when it finally arrived was excellent, but the.wait time was the longest we have ever experienced in decades o...
