When it comes to eating and drinking options, Taranaki is renowned for its local produce, innovation and international flair. No matter what your tastes, there’s plenty to sink your teeth into.

Taking a stroll down any of Taranaki’s main streets you’ll find a wide range of dining options, and by exploring a little off the beaten track you will discover many more.

From the early morning coffee roasters and talented baristas that fuel the region, to the fine and international dining options serving up fresh local food and flavours via the many cool cafés that offer a cosy corner, stunning vista or vibrant community, there are plenty of options right around the Mountain.

For those who appreciate something a little stronger, there are traditional country pubs that offer a glimpse into rural New Zealand, modern cocktail and wine bars that add flavour to a night out, and a burgeoning network of producers of craft beer and spirits.
