Taste & Shop Taupo 2024

TASTE & SHOP TAUPŌ

Nestled right in the heart of the North Island, surrounded by rich volcanic soils and fertile pastureland, Great Lake Taupō is truly blessed with world-class experiences in a boutique-style town centre.

The region is home to many specialist growers and artisan producers, who are just as passionate about their products as the land. It’s this home-grown attitude that you’ll find meandering around the compact town centre – cafes burst with local produce, quirky boutiques offer hand crafted keepsakes, and bars and restaurants showcase locallybrewed beer, mead, and spirits.

The forests and crystal-clear rivers call game hunters and anglers from all around the world, with fishing for your dinner being a top pastime in the area. Experience this passion in the food you taste, the shops you visit, and memories you make here. Navigating Taupō’s hidden gems is simple: park your car in the lakefront town centre, and wander the streets, laneways, and arcades, discovering as you go.

World-class dining can be found at various luxurious lodges, excellent bistros, bakeries, cafés, and boutique food and wine merchants. For a laid-back affair try some awardwinning takeouts with a refreshing local craft beer. Fans of retail therapy will not be disappointed with the town’s offerings. From fashion boutiques with racks lined with local and international designer labels, vintage stores, destination homeware and gift shops, ceramics, and art and craft galleries, the big-box brand stores blend perfectly with the artisan boutique. If markets are more your thing, a weekend spent exploring the town’s two markets can’t be beat. You’ll find something for everyone at Taupō Market (Saturdays) and Market Central Taupō (Sundays).

Dining out in TAUPŌ
