GREYMOUTH CAFES AND RESTAURANTS

There is certainly no shortage of places to eat and drink in Greymouth. They are scattered throughout the borough, but deciding which one to choose will depend on whether you want a coffee/tea and a bite to eat or a full meal. Many of these places have free WIFI and that would be a plus in my book. This is my personal choice: For a coffee and a bite to eat I would go to Maggie’s Kitchen, GAP or Robert Harris. For a dinner I would go to the Union Hotel, Stumpers Restaurant or Speights Alehouse. For a takeout, how about Bonzai’s Pizza? For something exotic, try the Sampan or Priya restaurant.

DP One Coffee

On Mawhira Quay, near the Railway Hotel. This is an old fashioned cafe with a relaxing atmosphere with New Zealand music playing in the background.

Ali’s Eating and Drinking Cafe

This is just around the corner from the BNZ in the town square.

blanchfields

This is on Guinness St. A very popular bakery for those who want food for lunch or morning tea.

Bonzai’s Pizza

On Mackay Street, Bonzai’s has a pizza delivery business.

Speight’s Brewery

Also on Mawhira Quay, this place is a good place to have a beer and eat. It also has outdoor tables if you feel like having your beer or food outdoors.

roberto harris

This cafe is at the east end of Mackay Street. A good place for a coffee and a cookie.

maggie’s kitchen

My favorite. This place is on Mackay Street across the street from Paper Plus. It makes some good meals at a reasonable price.

west coast vape

Nice little cafe that also has computers to access the internet for $2

Stumper’s Restaurant

On the corner of Mackay and Albert Street, it does very good food. Good place for a dinner with nothing too exotic on the menu.

Gap Cafe

Corner of Guinness and Tainui Street right in the center of town, this cafe has recently opened.

Sampan Restaurant

Chinese and oriental cuisine. Sampan is on Albert Street.

Mega Miter 10

This place has a coffee shop if you fancy a coffee while you shop. It is next to the garden depot.

Hotel Union

St. Herbert Nice place for a meal. It has a true colonial atmosphere.

Priya (Indian Restaurant)

Priya is an Indian restaurant. It stood on Tainui Street until it was destroyed by fire, but is now in temporary accommodation at the Regent Theater until it is rebuilt on Tainui Street.

McDonald’s and KFC

If you like Macdonalds or KFC you are in luck as they are close to the city center near the main roundabout.
