CANDLES LIT, FIRE ON 🔥
A little note to our locals 💛

One thing we hear a lot is 'Arbour is always full.' Which makes us feel very cool 😎… but we definitely have plenty of space May to November.

We are often full over summer, of course. But what Marlborough calls 'tourist season' feels more like visitation season for us. It’s you booking most of our summer seats, and we LOVE that. You’re out showing friends and family around, catching up, celebrating, and booking tables sometimes before flights are even confirmed 🥹.

It creates a really special atmosphere; a hidden little garden restaurant in the middle of nowhere, filled with love and laughter.

At this time of year, unless you hear otherwise from me, assume you can call up and we'll find a warm seat for you 🌿

SEAFOOD.
SUNDAY LUNCH, 7 JUNE

Celebrating sustainable seafood from Marlborough and greater Aotearoa.

Slow pace, great wine, and delicious food.

Think hapuka, crab, scampi, mussels, and all the beautiful things our coastline quietly provides.

We’ll even have a special koha from our Stewart Island whānau to share.

Book on online or email Liz ###

It is a feature menu, but some dietaries can be catered for. Email [email protected] to discuss.

Like cooking, great cocktails start with great ingredients. Congratulations to Roots Dry Gin on all the new bling at The Spirit Guide Awards.

Beautiful humans. Making our cocktails awesome for ages.

New news. A little love letter from Liz. Never planned, usually sent at whatever hour it finally gets finished. Currently written in pyjamas at home, so please excuse any red wine drops or biscuit crumbs on your newsletter.

Hot topic 🐟🐠🎣

How lucky are we to have a sole fisher supplying less than a handful of local restaurants with line caught hapuka. If you see Troy’s fish on a menu, you’re choosing some of the most sustainable, ethically caught fish in the country 🙌🏼
