Bannockburn Hotel - Wine Country Restaurant

4 of us were directed here by a nearby winery for a midweek lunch. We all have healthy appetites and include a gluten free and pescatarian. Our excellent experience commenced just inside the front door with a very warm welcome from the owner. Our waitress for the day could not have been more engaging, informative or professional. She helped us make good choices a la carte to share, with all dishes perfectly ordered and timed! The food was absolutely incredible. Not a weak dish amongst the 8 we ordered. Many surprises with standouts involving mushrooms and even cauliflower! As can be seen with my review history I don’t post often but was keen in this instance because this restaurant topped our list of extremely good dining experiences over a 5 day trip through Wānaka/Queenstown and surrounds. This will be first on my list to return to. What a cracking place. Well done Bannockburn Hotel Team👏👏👏

Firstly the food was excellent. Gluten free options were excellent. Stay well versed on cross contamination protocol. The salmon pate was good. Fish tortilla was very good. Meatballs were very good. The sharing steak was excellent. The lamb ribs were amazing, totally recommend. Finished with creme brulee which was also amazing. The service was flawless and responsive. I will definitely go back. Thank Bannockburn hotel, well done.
